Hello. My name is Arturia Pendragon. Some of you may have met me a month ago when I handed out flyers saying I would starting a delivery business soon.

My moped has been converted to use the type of engine needed here. [She just has to give the mechanic free deliveries for two months to pay for it and top priority. Sob.] As of today I will be making deliveries in the afternoons once school lets out and before sunset. Simply send me a message during that time to let me know the pick up and delivery location, and I will have it delivered in a half hour or less.

Thank you for your time and have a nice day.

Everyone!

I've got good news!  You're forgiven!  The angel I summoned said so himself; God would definitely forgive you in a heartbeat because man's heart is weak, as is his mind, and we're all, uh, susceptible to the workings of the Evil One, and even as we wallow in our filth and sin, we -- You know what, forget God; I forgive you.

Seriously, no one could possibly blame you for what happened last week even if some of us were lucky enough to be scorpion magnets.  Misery has it right - the important thing is to make sure that it doesn't happen again.  If you all missed the announcements from the higher-ups, the people who were affected most severely were Scorpios.  ...If you don't know what that means, in modern times on Earth - that's the 2000s - they were born when the Sun was in the sector of the sky dominated by the constellation Scorpio.  This makes no sense if you were born outside Earth or in a time when we didn't go in for ridiculous things like pretending arbitrary sky-pictures meant anything about our lives, but the important thing is that the sun transitions into Scorpio beginning on October 23rd.

Guess what last week was.

The next sign is Sagittarius.  The sun will shift into its sector on November 22nd.

So let's clear a few things out of the way - Everyone who was afraid, can you report in with your sign?  Same thing if you were a scorpion magnet, though maybe that's more of a subjective thing.  And everyone who's a Sagittarius, do you mind if we tie you to your beds from November, oh, 18th-ish to the 23rd?  Your choices are (Yes/Of course/Definitely).  If your name is Jun, (That's kinda kinky) works, too.  If you don't know your sign, Sagittarius goes from late November into late December - so the end of a harvest season into winter in the Northern hemisphere, and the end of spring into summer in the South.

I'll keep track of the data.  It's kinda my thing.

Oh -- this has nothing to do with anything, but I'm working in the computer labs of the university now.  Drop by if you ever need anything fixed or if you just want to say hi.

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

 [With everything returning to normal, Saori's still a bit shook up from recent events. She's still sorting her feelings on all of it: Eikichi's attack, getting separated from SEES, the boss battle. But she can't stay cooped up by herself forever. She needs to let her friends know where she is, and also...get a new door.

The video flickers on. This seems to be the most popular way of communicating. It's not what she'd choose personally, but if it gets everyone's attention, the better.]


Hey everyone. This is Saori. If it's not too much trouble, I'd like to announce some things.

First, Minako-chan if you're seeing this, I'm alright. I ran into a couple people, and they helped me out. Speaking of whom, thank you everyone who fought the demon together. I've never seen teamwork that good before. I hope I was some help as well.

Second, thank you Minato-kun. I don't know what would have happened if I didn't contact you.

And lastly, does anyone know a good workshop? I...need a new door. [And to make her point, she points the camera to her front door, which looks to have been cleaved with an ax. She giggles self-deprecatingly.] Horrible, isn't it?

That's all I wanted to say. So, bye. [The feed cuts off.]

Shura smiles a bit at the camera, dressed in a green hospital gown, an IV hooked to the crook of her elbow.

"Hey guys and gals. If you lost track of me after the the thing with the scorpions, don't worry, I'm just in the hospital. Nothing bad, I promise."

[The feed begins with noise.

It's sharp, sudden. No video, just the sound of something being roughly rummaged through, with no apparent concern about being quiet or subtle about the affair, before it's shoved away across some surface—falling. Hitting the floor. A box, maybe, with something in it.

Then, a voice: tense, frustrated, uneven, breathing rapid, shallow, and unsteady, words strained and laced with panic.]


Dammit.

Where did—

[More noise.

Then, abruptly, the video feed flickers to life. There's a glimpse of a hand touching the screen, shaking, before the device is quickly shoved away. It slides along the surface of an apparent desk, catching a brief glimpse of a ceiling as it tumbles onto the floor, landing not far away from a cardboard box and a beat-up looking radio. The room it lies in is one dimly lit—the only light provided is due to the streaks of sunlight peeking in from the gaps in the curtain and blind-covered window. Makes it hard to discern much in the way of detail, but it's enough to make out a bed shoved at an odd, jutting angle—nearly shoved up against the closet—with tangled covers. A sign of some sort in front of the long curtain that's covering (as anyone familiar with the layout of the apartments might deduce) the entrance to the balcony, and then, finally, an obscured half-view of the desk shoved against a door. There's more movement off camera, sounds of a drawer being pulled open and gone through, until, finally, there's a quieter sound—perhaps of a lid popping open and its contents retrieved— followed by a period of silence.

Not long afterward, Shinjiro finally steps into view, crossing the room and sliding slowly down onto his bed.]


Shit. Can't even—

[He looks down then, eyes settling on the COMP on the floor. He stares at it for a few moments, grimacing, before standing up again, movement unsteady, reaching down to swipe it up off the floor. If he notices the feed is still recording, he doesn't show it, and the feed, after a moment, cuts off.

Then, a few minutes later, a message:]


[Failed Filter/Private Message to the P3 cast]

i dont know where you all are but get back home and stay the hell inside

just do it alright

Very impressive, Sebastian. [The words seem to come from a distance. But the gasp that follows them is much closer.] ...

How the hell did I - [The speaker cuts his words short. He senses that he's not alone and it isn't long before he finds the recorder.]

Video? [It's said awkwardly like he doesn't know what it is or what it could possibly entail. Luckily he doesn't have to think about it for long. The screen pops up - as if on cue - and he is...

Being recorded.

Despite his less than welcoming frown, Ciel is a prettyhandsome boy in a Weston College school uniform. Though something must have happened to his right eye. It's covered by an eye-patch.]


This technology is foreign to me. If anyone happens to be listening [He can't imagine he's being seen on multiple screens!] I would appreciate some assistance. My name is Ciel Phantomhive and I need to return to Weston College.

Are any of you familiar with Carl Jung? If not, then I suggest you do.

But that is not my reason to come to you today. Rather it is to, perhaps, open your eyes should you chose to do so.

What makes good, good and evil, evil? Should both be simply placed as one or the other? If the 'evil' become the ruling force, would the rules be reversed? If someone steps up to remove a tyrant, are they doing good, or, in the eyes of others, are they being the ones who are evil?

...Or are we what makes these forces exist in the first place? Can good be really called good if there is no evil to defeat, no goal for them to attain?

You were all called here for a reason, but should you believe one side...or the other about what is the truth? As we become more enlightened, we tend to forget what came before. And as history has a tendency to repeat itself...

A man looks above to the nearby mountain. He knows not how it was made, and therefore decides that a god put it there. Is this man false? Scientifically, perhaps, we know that mountains are produced by the movement of lithospheric plates. Yet when we knew nothing of this, we saw the truth in a god. And so, this idea is born and now exists. Man gave it power, and the ability to create the mountain is now that god's.

Personas are reflections of a character's inner self, yet they are the gods, demons and powerful creatures of our worlds.

So then...can a man become a god...or was he always one?

Hey, so... I was thinking... These Persona things are kind of supposed to be us, right?

[He sure was sounding pretty unsure there. People that had seen him around could deduce that this was definitely nothing new.]

What if your Persona doesn't really fit...? Like, fit who you are? Do you think something weird happens?

[Minako is starting to get restless. The tournament only heightened this feeling, and so, today, after a conversation with Minato, she turns to the network to message the members of SEES she knows are present.]

Filtered text to Minato Arisato, Mitsuru Kirijo, Shinjiro Aragaki, Akihiko Sanada, Miki Sanada, Minami Arisato, and Aigis )

[Afterward, she takes to the video for something a little more public and light-hearted.]

So I read on the news feed that there's going to be some kind of masquerade ball at the end of the month. Since it's Halloween-themed, that must mean costumes. Anyone else thinking of going and dressing up? I can't decide what would look the best!

[There is a blond woman with a poofy-looking hat on the display. She speaks, however, in a voice that sounds a bit too high-pitched for the speaker.]

Hello, everyone!

I got here a few days ago, and I'm not really sure what happened. Somehow I got here in the body of my online game character, so please call me Atoli.

I hope we can all be great friends!

[Hello, citizens, you're now watching a recording of a curtain of silver hair and the sounds of someone poking and tapping at the communicator. There is an huff of breath, and then the camera is flipped over, revealing a woman with silver dog ears and red markings over her skin. She tilts her head curiously before smiling for the camera-- benevolently, radiantly, and somehow tinged with sadness. Then typing starts, slow and careful.]

HOW MANY PEOPLE STILL BELIEVE IN THE GODS? WHAT SORT OF GOD DO YOU BELIEVE IN, IF YOU DO?

[ Minato has an extremely important announcement to make. He's very upset by this turn of events because that music player - and his headphones, while we're at it - are very precious to him. Therefore, actually talking to many people at once on this device seems absolutely necessary! So he breaks his record of not broadcasting messages publically for this.

... anyone who watched the videos Yu Narukami posted the other day might recognize Minato as one of several who fell victim to teleporter accidents and wound up in the pool, though he's considerably dryer here. ]


My mp3 player got dunked in a pool the other day. I've been letting it dry since. However, it seems to be shorted out altogether.

... does anyone have any recommendations for a good place to get it fixed? Or... is there anyone here good with electronics?

I'd be very grateful for any assistance. [ pause ] For those I haven't met, my name is Minato Arisato.


ETA:
[ A short while later, he appends a picture of the mp3 player in question as well additional details as they come up. ]

It's from the early 2000s on Earth.
My sister has a working model, if one needs to be seen.
