[You know what's fun? Sitting around feeling depressed and listless. Chromedome's done a lot of that lately, and now he's struggling to pull himself out of it. That's not what Rewind would want, though thoughts of Rewind are what push him down to begin with. It's a sort of a vicious cycle.

When Chromedome appears on the network, he seems his usual cheery self.]

Well, you organics sure know how to keep busy.

[Someone hasn't really been paying attention.]

So who wants to answer a few questions for a mildly curious Cybertronian? I can't promise prizes, but I might be able to promise an interesting conversation.

[Video: start. Unimpressed teenager with slicked-back hair and a cranky expression: appear.]

Okay, so either the Professor is pulling a huge fuck you on me for leaving, everyone in this town is sharing some kind of mass delusion, or I actually got kidnapped to a Japanese city in another world to fight monsters.

Someone remind me why I'm believing the third one?

[He rubs at his eyes, then looks a bit more cheerful as he keeps speaking.]

Free room and board just for beating shit up, though. The place I came from could learn from this Philemon guy. All I wanna know is if there's any other mutants around - that's Homo Superior, the evolution beyond humans, not whatever you might call mutants in some other world. As good as this all sounds, I'm not sticking around if demons are my only alternative to humans.

[And he's done.]

((ooc: rather pertinent rewrite after he got the details about the place and actually kind of liked them. facepalm.))

[When the feed comes on, a rather distinctive looking bounty hunter in her armor is staring into the camera of her COMP through her visor. Though her expression is a little hard to make out, she seems rather pleased about something.]

For those of you who don't know me, my name is Samus Aran. I was a freelance bounty hunter in my universe, and I enjoyed doing contracted work with clients as well as the Galactic Federation, the government in charge of running my galaxy. Recently I requested permission to start taking on bounties in this world, as well as do some freelance mercenary work. I received a bounty hunting license from the government as a result.

[Samus taps a few buttons on her COMP and a transparent digital image of her license appears on the feed, laid over her face as she continues to talk.]

While I'm preparing to offer my services to all those who reside in the city, I thought I'd first take the opportunity to inform the other visitors here in Hinoto-Ri. After all, it is we who will be working together most often, against many common foes.

The mercenary work I'm prepared to give includes, but isn't limited to, security detail, body-guarding, and reconnaissance missions. If you have any tasks you might need a highly trained warrior for, don't hesitate to ask me.

My bounty hunting services are strictly reserved for government requests. This is unlikely to change in the future. If there are any other bounty hunters in the city, however, I'd prefer cooperation to competition regarding the bounties available.

If you have any questions, concerns, or even requests, please contact me and I'll respond as swiftly and as clearly as I can. Thank you.

[And speaking of bounty hunting, Samus's full access to the government's personal hit list of dangerous demons and criminals was proving to be extraordinarily handy. She planned to thin out the list to the best of her abilities over the next several months, moreso for the sake of the city's protection rather than for the money.

Unsurprisingly, tracking down one of the top bounties on the list lead her into the heavily demon inhabited Taurus district. For the time being, she was attempting to be discreet, wandering the streets in some casual clothes with her paralyzer hidden on a belt by her hip. Underneath the clothing was her zero suit, ready to call her PED Suit the moment she found trouble.

Her COMP glasses informed her that the Thirteenth Hour was approaching fast. If she was lucky, the demon she was hunting would make itself known during that time... It was doing a rather fine job of blending in with the crowd around her so far.

Dare you approach her while she's working??]

[Hello, Hinoto-ri, today you are greeted by a man in a lab coat. A lab coat with pins on it. Clearly this man is the most professional.]

Greetings, good morning, salutations, et cetera. My name is Doctor Owen Harper and I just wanted to say hello.

I'm in no way new, so save your breath and don't try to give me the big spiel, I just know I haven't put my face out there yet and that's not the greatest idea when you're a doctor.

Doctor-patient trust and all that.

I've recently started on with the hospital here, so I'm just here to let you know which face to look for.

//Locked to the Visitors only//

And since all intelligent people take their governments with a grain of salt, I'll be happy to do house calls if government-run facilities aren't your thing.

[Hell, they weren't even really his thing.]

Well, that ends your lovely PSA, enjoy doing whatever it is you lot do around here.

[There's a pause as he's about to turn the recording off, but then has second thoughts.]

Actually one more PSA for the extended quality of your lives! Sora Naegino: if anyone gets the notion to hurt her or starts looking to date her, just understand that I am willing and able to make your death look like an accident.

[Now have a cheery smile!]

Thanks!

[Action; 13th Hour; any night through the 21st]

[For once, DeDeDe isn't spending every night sitting in the Penguin's Nest drinking and carousing. He's got more important things to do. There's a city in danger of being torn apart by demons and god knows what else, and a Galactic Federation officer has a duty to protect the people from the nasty creatures that swarm out during the 13th Hour. And he's got a special Velvet Room Persona he's never used before, so he's got Bobby out tonight, encasing demons and other creatures in bubbles before smashing them apart with his hammer. His fighting style is strong and fast, with no effort wasted in each swing - truly the mark of a seasoned combatant with an impressive amount of military training. To anyone who knows him, the fact that he's out at all will register as odd enough, but he's also uncharacteristically standing up straight, moving with energy and purpose, and being incredibly polite to anyone he sees while he's fighting. He also definitely won't turn down any help, but if you look weak or helpless, he'll probably try to step in to defend you instead.]

[Video; filtered to Samus]

[By this point, though, the really traumatic memories of the bounty hunter have started to flood DeDeDe's mind. He immediately knows something is up with this, and doesn't have a very hard time putting together just whose memories these are. There's a Samus where he comes from too, after all. So he's on the phone as soon as he pulls himself together, taking a long pull from a bottle of whiskey and wiping his beak before speaking in a very practiced even tone into the camera.]

Samus. You and I need to talk. Come to the club. I'll be in my office.

[No southern drawl, very professional. But it's definitely the Penguin King under there, and he's definitely looking more than a little shaken.]

When the video starts, one will see Shoutarou standing outside of a pool hall - he adjusts his hat a bit before speaking.

"Hello, Hinoto-Ri. The name's Hidari Shoutarou, and I'm here with some news for you all, and a couple of questions.

To start, a rather unexpected thing has happened - whatever strange powers surround this place have seen fit to bring my detective agency building here. I suppose that means I'm stuck here for the long haul, I may as well start offering my services as a private detective. Just come see me in Pisces district, at the Narumi Detective Agency."

There's a pause, then Shou frowns and huffs. "...of course, whoever brought it here has a hell of a sense of humor, and put it across the street from the other Narumi Detective Agency..." The camera jerks, and points to the other one for a moment.

"The city's still working on getting power connected to the building, but I'm gonna call it open for business anyway now that I've moved in."

He clears his throat, and looks just a little more serious. "As for the questions - has anyone here heard of the Transmigration 9? It was where I was before I wound up here. Just wondering if any other crewmembers are here. My other question..." His face turns a bit awkward at this point. "...does anyone have any advice on taking care of a kitten? I've dealt with an adult cat that knows how to behave already before, to a degree, but a kitten is outside my experience."

[On the network, a video feed starts up from one of the watch comps, pointed directly at the face of the user. Said user happens to be a woman with blonde hair pulled back into a ponytail, wearing a futuristic looking armored suit. Her helmet is currently off so that her face is visible on camera.

It appears that she is sitting in a stark white hospital room, with several doctors nearby reviewing clipboards and storing samples of... are those vials of glowing blood?

Speaking of glowing, the woman herself happens to be glowing slightly blue all over, and there are dark blue veins running along certain areas on her face.

When she's positive that the feed is working, she begins to speak.]

My name is Samus Aran, from my universe I'm what's known as a space hunter, a hired mercenary and bounty hunter primarily working for the Galactic Federation. One of my missions recently left me infected with a radioactive substance known as Phazon; my body is currently producing Phazon at a steady rate, and the city's government feared that my condition may cause harm to civilians, so I have been in the hospital for the past two days while tests were being run.

As I assured them, and as they confirmed, my condition is not contagious nor is it outright harmful to either myself or any others that I come into contact with. I now assure you that there is no need to fear my condition, and I'm taking great care to make sure that I keep it under control.

[To her chagrin this might mean regular check-ups at the doctor's.]

As a warning, my body and my suit are irradiated, so radiation detectors will go off if I come near them.

I'll be happy to answer any questions or concerns regarding my condition, but first I would like to ask if there happens to be anyone from my universe currently residing in the city. If you are at all familiar with the Galactic Federation, whether you are a part of the Federation Police or military, or whether you are simply aware of their presence as the law enforcement of the galaxy you are from, please let me know.
