[This new arrival doesn't seem all that bothered by being brought to this strange world.]

Hey, guys!

I just got into town and I was wondering if some of the veterans around here could lend me a hand.

[Actually, she seems pretty chipper about the whole thing.]

Are there any stores around here with a decent selection of doujinshi? Some hobby shops would be nice too... or any place that sells figures.

If I'm in a different universe I should be able to pick up some really sweet exclusive merchandise~

[Yeah, this is completely a multidimensional shopping trip.]

Oh, and is there a cosplay cafe?



And is it always this hot around here? In December?

Greetings again. I have realized, while walking in the hall, that some rooms are warmer than others. How does one makes one's room warmer? I wish to avoid hypothermia.

Well babes, it looks like Michel's birthday is today and he's turning 17! And considering that's not exactly something any of you would know, he doesn't mind telling you himself! [Because he can, and he likes to show off.

It's going to be quite lonely without the rest of his friends or Miyabi to celebrate, truthfully. But he's intent on making the most of it.]


So! He requires that you share your secrets and tell him the finest Karaoke establishment you've discovered that you think the city has to offer! Nothing that would be illegal of course...besides he doesn't drink and smoke anyway, but he's sure that there's bound to be something quite musically inspiring in Hinoto-Ri!

[Rune's looking a little uncertain at the COMP, not entirely sure she set it up right. It's a moment before she sits back, still looking like she wasn't sure she should be doing this.]

So... um... I'm not trying to say I don't know what a date is...

[Okay, she really doesn't know as well as she'd like, if the fact that she just turned beat red is any clue.]

...but, uh... what do you do on one?

Hinoto-Ri seems like a...chaotic place. It sort of reminds me of home. { She smiles a mite awkwardly. } But I don't feel like I'm doing enough...for the people.

Is there some cause that grabs your attention? Are you worried about something?

Maybe there's something we can do about it. Together. I...have some experience... { Okay a lot of experience. } in diplomacy. I'd really like to put it to use to make Hinoto-Ri a safer and happier place.

[And someone just woke up in the hospital today, and makes the world's worst apology.]

I dunno shit what happened, and I can only remember a bunch of things but....whatever I did, please tell me I didn't hurt anyone. If I did I...

I kinda blacked out on the 23rd...

...I'm so sorry.

[Pardon the so-soon post, Hinoto-Ri, but surely an emergency calls for it. And it's not about plushes this time.]

[Filtered from Elizabeth]

[Theo can't really talk now, as he's going to try and reason with his deranged sister, but he's going to send a small warning out regardless of the circumstance.]

Please do not enter the premise of Pisces's 6th floor, it is much more dangerous than being outside. If you are living on the floor itself, or the one above or below it, please evacuate immediately. Please stay within a group.

[Well, that's that. Time for his second thing.]

[Private To Minato and Minako Arisato]

I apologize for the short notice, but please refrain from seeking to subdue Elizabeth. I do not doubt either of your powers, having seen both for myself, but I must insist you stay out of it unless it becomes certain that she cannot be stopped by my sister and I, should Margaret feel well enough to attempt to restrain her.

[... though to be honest he'd rather them not get into the fight anyway. they probably won't listen to him and he knows it but it's worth a shot.

Aaand finally, third. Gosh he hates October this is a terrible month.]


[Private to Margaret]

Sister? Are you feeling more yourself?

[he probably won't be replying unless it's urgent too, since he has quite the situation.]

[Maya is smiling brightly when the feed opens, looking quite at ease despite all of the recent changes. She offers the network a cheerful wave before proceeding to introduce herself. Everyone else has been, so why not? This network has the potential to be great for meeting people and gathering information.]

Hello! These are pretty useful, aren't they? I could get used to this. So convenient!

Oh, right. Introductions! I'm Maya Amano, hot-blooded journalist! I don't have much use for formalities, though, so just Maya is fine. I've been assigned to Libra 7-08. These apartments are awfully small, but I suppose they'll have to do!

[She'll find a way to make a royal mess of it no matter the size, anyway. Also, apologies in advance to any of her neighbors: she likes her music loud.]

I was thinking of giving myself a tour of the city, particularly the shopping district, if anyone is interested. Also, does anyone happen to know if the paper here is hiring? It's certainly informative, but I'm of the opinion that their articles could use a little pepping-up, and I don't like being idle for too long. If I have to leave my career behind, then I'll just build myself a new one here.

[It took a while for him to figure out how this network device worked. Most of the technology talk went over his head during the initial greeting before the attack happened, so up until this time he was figuring how to work this shining piece of wizardry. Video posts still make him jump, so he'll never be using that option himself.

The recording clicks on and there's a short silence before someone clears his voice.]


Since I'll be around this place for a while, I figure I should use this communication method to introduce myself. Name's Kisuke, I come from a different time from this world. Ancient Japan, if you want to be specific. Large castles, samurais, ninjas, things that's on some... [There's a mumble of something like "wizardry"] ...vi-de-o things, along with some youkai spirits to the mix.

Not sure what else to say about myself, but nice to meet you all.

[The public recording ends here.]

[A young man in black appears on the screen after spending some time fiddling]

I - I am Raidou Kuzunoha XIV, and I was a devil summoner in my world. Gouto and I are trying to make copies of the information we have about demons so it would be readily available.

[He pauses, considering what else to say]

Does anyone know anything about the one who owns the Narumi Detective Agency here? I want to ask questions.

Hello everyone! \(^∀^) I hope you've all settled in well!

My name's Minako Arisato. I've talked to a few of you already, but for everyone else, it's nice to meet you!

Now that things have calmed down a little I was wondering - how many of us were Persona-users before coming to Hinoto-ri? I think it might be good to meet and compare notes if we haven't yet, see what's the same and what's changed. And maybe we could also make a list of people with experience who can help with answering questions or training, or things like that! Just jumping into using a Persona can be pretty daunting...

For everyone else - what do you usually do for fun? Some of the things I like are music, volleyball, cooking... If we have enough people who like the same things, maybe we could even form a club! I wouldn't mind having someone to play volleyball with again. Or to go out to karaoke! (ノ´▽`)ノ♪

Anyway, that's all for now!

[The video opens with a pale girl with a line faced expression, as she speaks the tone is deadpan]

This is Lt. Commander Hoshino Ruri of the United Earth Space Fleet and captain of the battleship Nadesico. I know some things have happened lately and regret being unable to give proper support for them, but I'm learning the limits of what one person can do. Given technological differences is there anyone who was brought that has expertise in engineering, automation or advanced AI concepts? I've been working on a project that I suspect is several dozen if not over a hundred man hours and doing it alone has not proven to lead to being able to act quickly.

Also, if anyone knows where 06-09 in the Libra sector is, I would appreciate a tour. I haven't yet had enough time to screen all the map data for Omoikane so would probably get lost and once I finish up here I probably should see what sort of accommodations they have set aside for us here. Odds are that if I can't find a lake or something to put down in shuttling up and down may necessitate my staying there.

Thank you.

[Once the video clicks on, Simon looks rather puzzled. In the background, one might notice a large mass of red and black metal.]

So, uh. Got a question here.

Where can I park a big mech? 'Cause I'm not sure how well people would like it just sitting outside my apartment building.

Hey.  Looks like I've got this working.

[Atsuro's face appears on the network under somewhat inadequate lighting.  An astute guess would place him in his room illuminated only by the backlight of his laptop.] 

Everyone get out of that first mission OK?  I can't speak for anyone else, but geez, I think I slept for a few days straight there.  If they, uh, wanted a report or anything, the research labs are fine.  ...Probably.

[He stifles a yawn before continuing on, the camera zooming out slightly to reveal a lot of bedhead and a conspicuously absent trademark floppy hat.]

Hnn...  Sorry.

So!  Anyway.  I've been thinking a lot.  About what they've told us and about... what they haven't.  Hah, I'm still surprised this place isn't some weird hallucination.  It's a little unreal, right?  Like they're asking us to act out a game or a fantasy novel.  But... even if it seems like it might be fun to stick around, I think we need to find out what it is we're really getting into.  ...There's something I want to say about all this.

You've all run into the monsters by now, right?  They talk, they cast magic, they do tricks.  Not all of them are bad, but they're things we've heard of in myths and stories from different cultures all across the globe - Cerberus, the hound of Hades.  British pixies and kobolds.  Nekomata and other youkai from Japan.  So... what gives?  What're they doing here?

...I'm not gonna get into details, but I should say that these guys - the exact same identical demons - have popped up in at least two other worlds that I know of.  And both times.... they showed up because the world was about to end.

I'm not saying this place is the same way, but... maybe that's why they need our help badly.

[addendum a few minutes later]

Ah, someone reminded me - if you guys want to see a database of all the demons I've ever met, you can drop by my room.  Libra 5-07.
