[Now here's a rare sight. Otoha doesn't usually show up on the network. Technology isn't really his thing anyway. But here he is, leaning back in a chair. He doesn't look that bothered by the precarious angle.]

For those of you who don't know me - my name's Otoha. I've got som business to discuss.

The Penguin's Nest in the Taurus District has been having some... staffing problems. We don't have enough people handling security or the bar. And I'm not really the sort of person who should be handling finance. Math's never been my strong point.

I could offer jobs to the locals here, but I figure that we Visitors should help each other out, right? So if you're up for it, let me know. A few things to keep in mind though - this is a demon-friendly club so if you have problems with that, don't apply. No one under the age of sixteen is going to get a job unless you've got special circumstances and can show me you're mature enough to handle it. No one under twenty gets to drink or hook up with the... entertainers. At least not on club grounds, I'm not responsible for what you do on your own time.

Other than that, I'm pretty open to suggestions. Tell me what you can do and we'll work something out.

[He shuts off the feed. He's not usually this wordy, so he needs to just... relax silently until he gets some responses.]

[Otoha hasn't really noticed what's going on around the city. It's not like he's not usually honest about most things anyway. But tonight has him sitting on a rooftop, staring out at the city. He's asked this question before, in a different place, but he still wants answers. He's never found an answer that's satisfied him.]

Why do people think that killing people is wrong? Sometimes it's the fastest solution for a problem. Yeah, people will be sad, but they'll get over it. It's kind of a pain when people get so upset whenever it's brought up.

... Johnny, you're not allowed to answer. I know your answer.

[Somebody definitely looks more shook up than usual; and those bandages looked a little much for someone that was supposed to be in a fake fight.]

O-- OK. I can get-- demon kidnapping, that's a-- job hazard. I guess. I-I can understand that!

B-But how come I'm the only one that ends up in an actual death match?! Y-You guys said not to worry, but I thought I was gonna d-die--!! Who the hell let--?!

[OK. Deep breaths Daichi, deep breaths.]

I-- Look, just-- stay away from that Sam guy! H-He's one of us, timid-looking guy, brown hair-- he's completely faking it! C-C-Completely! He's like some kind of monster!! I've never seen anything like it before! He wasn't faking anything, he was trying to kill me-- I-I think he seriously almost did!

Just-- stay away from him?! Alright?!

The message Desco posts on the network - the public network - is short and incredibly angry.

"This is a new low even for you, Des-X! Are you too scared of the Final Boss to face her one-on-one‽ Gather up as many minions as you like, you stupid cow! I'LL STILL KILL YOU FOR THIS!"

...hm. Wonder what happened.

[The video feed clicks on, and at first, you might mistake the person on screen to be a dirty mop, what with the long messy strands of brown hair hanging down from his head. But on second glance, no, there's a face underneath all that, and it doesn't look that happy.]

W-why am I here? Again?! I didn't ask anybody to be here, this is not what I wanted, this is really, really, not good at all!!!

[And he murmurs and shakes his head, looking down at the ground as it he is wishing it could open up and swallow him right then and there.]

...

Yeah. Um. So...my name's Sam. Sam Erstwhile. I was here before, and then I was back home...and I guess I'm back here again. I don't know. So, really, you don't need to tell me about the whole Persona thing, I know about it. I still don't understand why in the world they would choose me to be here again...I'm no one special. Really, I'm not.

[A sigh.]

Erm, so has anything changed recently that I need to know about? Same old, same old? No crazy other-world field trips or the like? I don't think I could deal with another other-world field trip, the last one was horrible...

To those with siblings (brothers or sisters) and can spare a moment of their time: Tell me about your relationship with them.

[An odd post from Miyako, especially to anyone who knows her. But she have her own reasons for making this post, as always.]

When the feed snaps on, there's nobody in the frame - just a massive gun. The feed stays trained on it for at least half a minute before it's moved around to stare Desco in the face.

"Listen up, all you humans! Desco and Miss Nano beat up a big red guy the other night, and Desco stole his gun!"

At this, Desco glances away from the video feed towards the direction of the gun and licks her lips.

"Desco doesn't know what it's made of, but it's the most delicious metal she's ever tasted. So the Final Boss is officially putting out a bounty on ALL of the red guys! If you bring Desco their guns, she will personally see to it that someone you don't like will cease to exist!"

A slight pause as she considers her offer.

"Desco reserves the right to refuse if her target has already brought her a gun. And also if Desco likes the target Desco will probably just kill you instead."

She gives the camera a bright smile, showing off her shark-like teeth.

"Now, if you've got all that, heed the words of the Final Boss and go beat up those red guys!"

Addendum:

The feed suddenly snaps back, revealing Desco once again.

"All Desco wants is the guns. If you can get one without beating up the red guys, feel free to do that instead. Bye bye!"

Current Mood: excited

[There is a ... considerable moment, many moments in fact, where it is just Masaru sort of fumbling around with the camera, with everything a bit jumbled and shaking as he screws with it. Masaru is not the best with technology, folks. This is why it's taken him so long to USE the network.]

...damn, this is worse than the crap DATS used to stick me with.

This thing on?

[It finally focuses in on his face.]

Ah, screw it.

Yo! The name's Daimon Masaru, and I was the number one street fighter in all of Japan, but I ain't been back in my Japan in awhile.

...long story!

Anyway!

This whole "Persona" thing... I'm still sorta figuring it all out, but me 'n' my partner have been gettin' by okay by ourselves for a couple weeks.

But I ain't just gonna sit on my ass with it, so I got a question for anyone out there who might be a pretty good fighter.

I wanna punch you in the face! I wanna test something.

bakegarasu

[It's late at night (or early in the morning, depending on your view). Otoha blinks at the camera, a softer expression than usual on his face. Still, he looks... concerned.]

Mm. Things aren't right here. Other people have been noticing it, too.

Is everyone safe, at least?

[... He frowns slightly. He's not normally this worried about other people. He winces in remembered pain at something, and turns off the video.]

papadojima

This thing on? Good.

*Dojima looks at the camera, then moves back a little.*

All right. I got a question for the adults around. What's a good place to go out and have a drink in this city?

[Otoha looks a little frazzled right now. He's kind of annoyed at something but it is unrelated to this topic. Anyway. He clears his throat and talks to the camera.]

So uh. I got this request thing from that - ... woman at the Velvet Room. Caroline? Right. Anyway, I'm looking for the other two people here named Yosuke.

[...]

I have to ask you a question or... something... yeah.

[Okay, turning off the video. ... It occurs to him that he could have just looked them up in a directory or something. ... He's already embarrassed himself. Whatever.]

[Action; Morning]

On the way to Sagittarius, Shura is checking the messages of the anon topic on her COMP, not paying attention to her surroundings, and trips as she gets off the tram. The content of her school bag spills on the floor of the busy station. Help her up? Point and laugh? Walk over her to get to school?

The feed snaps on to once again reveal Desco, although she's nowhere near as upset as the last time.

"Hello! Desco here!"

She briefly clears her throat before launching into her - obviously rehearsed - spiel.

"Desco was thinking about what she could do to fix all the incredibly obvious problems with humanity's political model, and she eventually decided to start small! Progress starts at the bottom and works its way upwards, you know. Just like how a hero starts off grinding on slimes in the starting area!"

She nods to herself, obviously proud of her BRILLIANT AND TOTALLY RELEVANT METAPHOR.

"So today, Desco is going to deliver a public service announcement to allll of Hinoto-Ri!"

With that, she holds up a crayon drawing of what looks like...a penguin?

"This is a Prinny! They are from Desco's home of Hades! They are a very important part of the industrial complex there!"

She tosses the drawing over her shoulder, smiling broadly.

"Desco has recently figured out that there is a deplorable lack of knowledge about Prinnies, so she has decided to educate you on them! And lucky for you, Desco is a highly-paid teacher at Evil Academy, the greatest school in the Netherworld!"

A slight pause.

"Also, in case you can't figure it out, Desco is also indulging in needless self-promotion while delivering this message. If you are struck by how amazing Desco is, she is still accepting minion applications!"

A broad smile as she holds up another piece of paper, this time with her contact number directly scribbled in crayon on it.

"Prinnies are sinful human souls! In life, they were terrible people that were complete failures as human beings! When they died, they went directly to Hades, where they were encased in Prinny Hide and subjected to intense, borderline sadistic lessons in order to become fine Prinnies!"

She pauses briefly in order to allow the the viewers to digest this message. She holds up the sign with her contact number again while she's at it.

"Once the training is finished, the Prinnies are shipped out to Netherworlds all over the universe, where they do menial labor and other degrading, thankless chores in exchange for less than minimum wage! When they have saved up enough money, they can pay off their sins and Death will take them away to be reincarnated!"

Her demeanor suddenly becomes serious.

"And now, Desco reaches the public service portion. Recently, Prinnies have started appearing in Hinoto-Ri during the Thirteenth Hour, and they are taking this time to slack off and indulge in idle chatter and frequent cigarette breaks. This is no good at all! A Prinny that is slacking off in his free time will soon start to slack off when working, and if a Prinny doesn't work his sins will never be forgiven! Therefore, if you see a Prinny during the Thirteenth Hour, Desco implores you to BRUTALLY ASSAULT them, for the sake of their tarnished souls!"

...she is entirely serious about this.

"Please, please, keep the cycle of reincarnation going! Beat a Prinny today!"

It's taken me too long to post this. Sorry about that.

Anyway, my school, the Knight Academy, showed up in the city weeks ago. I've been trying to get everything in order and save up some money since then so I can open it to the public. I think it would be a good place for people to learn things like swordplay and archery, especially since we have a sparring hall dedicated to practicing swordsmanship. There's a few rooms available for people who want to stay there. It's not a lot, though. Three of them are already taken, so I have...five left. We have a kitchen, so anyone who likes to cook can work there. Oh, and teachers. If you're interested in teaching swordplay or archery, I'd love to hear from you... I don't have a lot of money to offer, but I can give you something, at least.

If you're interested in anything I wrote, just respond to me here. Thanks!
