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."

[Action 1: Looking for bakeries]

[Yukiko is out and about getting ideas for that specific day. One in particular: cakes. Normally she would think about making one from scratch but somehow it always messes up. Besides, it wouldn't be just for the birthday boy but anyone else who comes. There is no way she wants to be responsible if anyone gets sick off her cooking even if she has been improving a bit. Not taking any chances. So she'll be looking at bakeries and see what kinds of goodies they have.]

[Action 2: Pet Store]

[She already has an idea what kind of present to get but it's hard to choose just one.

Her dilemma: picking a cat.

How can she choose just one?! They're all so cute! Those faces are like 'Pick me! Take me home!' How do people choose so easily??]

[Yep. Most of you have seen this already, but that damn book appears on your screens this early morning, folks. After a moment, it pulls away to reveal Yu yet again, curled up on the couch in front of the TV in the living room of the Dojima house, about ready to take advantage of this horrible concoction of troll-ness.]

[When the video feed comes on, you might all recognize a very famous looking face appearing on your screens. One Yosuke Hanamura has got his COMP on his wrist aimed at his face, and he looks... terribly deep in thought about something. Concerned, even. And, for a change of pace, he seems to have actually posted to the entire public network.

This isn't just a message for the visitors, this is a message for all of Hinoto-Ri, one he's sure people are going to look at because of his mini-celebrity status. Boy it must be important.]

Hello. My name is Naoto Shirogane. I thought I would at least introduce myself over the network. I'm afraid I still have quite a bit to learn about this place but what I do know so far has been quite intriguing. The method of accessing the network is a bit unique as well...

[There's a brief pause as if she's considering her words carefully.]

I'm curious so if you would indulge me for a moment... How many of you were familiar with the term 'persona' prior to coming here? Also, who was familiar with the term in the context of using it to describe the power that people gain here?

[...yes. Yu is smiling. A huge, completely rare, hardly ever happens for no reason smile on his face.]

Yosuke...

[...he can't even say anything, because if he does, he's either going to start cracking up or give his best friend all the sympathy. So for now all he does is lift his hands and start applauding.]

We need to have a meeting as soon as possible. My place is fine.

I wish the weather would stop changing so dramatically. It's giving me a headache... literally. I know some places can get unseasonably warm, but this is ridiculous.


[text, private to Minato:]

Hey, I need you to do me a favor. Can you take Miki out for an afternoon this week? Keep her busy for me?


[text, private to Shinjiro:]

We need to make sure Miki has a good Christmas this year. I have a plan, but I need your help.

[More information? One new arrival, at least, has all the information she needs. The influx of energy from this one is massive, completely unsubtle, almost as if purposefully designed to attract the attention of anyone with any sense whatsoever of the divine. It doesn’t fade away nor does it seem to be easily localized. This surely wasn’t ‘Magatama Energy’…

Whatever ambiguity this might present is cleared up almost immediately. Despite that no one may be in the vicinity, the voice of a young girl sounds clearly throughout the city of Hinoto-Ri to nearly every inhabitant, as intelligibly as if the speaker were standing right next to those she addressed. …Perhaps too intelligibly. The first sound they hear is an vehement, despairing cry.]


NO!

This can’t be…! The forests… The oceans… The deserts and mountains, the tundra and the plains! W-Where are they?! Who did this?! What did you do to them?!

[For a few moments, the speaker seems too overwhelmed with ire to speak.  The sound of her breathing eventually slows...]

Humans. Look at this world. Look at it!

I knew this would happen.  In every world across every dimension, it doesn’t matter! You -- you’re all the same! See for yourself! This is what will happen if you tear through all of nature without respect for anything but your own wealth and gain! Are you happy?! My children… 100 million species. One hundred million. There's almost nothing left...

I am Viridi, Goddess of Nature, ruler of the Earth and all living things! And I will not allow this land to be desecrated any further.

They say there are monsters ravaging what remains. If you stand against them, then... heed the command of a goddess and CRUSH them!

[Now that the fiasco with the scorpions was done, it's time to get back to business. In Yukiko's case...]

Um, I was wondering if anyone is missing their motorcycle since the scorpion attack. I...had to borrow one due to an emergency. Please let me know as soon as possible.

Thank you for listening!

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...

We've cracked it-

[Ideo's so rushed-sounding that he's scarcely aware he turned on the video. He's actually not in the lab for once, either. He looks like he's just somewhere on the streets, moving at a pretty fast speed from how hard his heels are hitting the pavement. Is he bleeding, or did he just smudge some on his face from somewhere...?]

-it's by birthday, the affected are all Scorpios. If you see anyone with yellow or red eyes who does not normally have those colors, steer clear or attempt to subdue them. Do not use lethal measures-

[Ideo rubs at his face again.]

-there has to be a way to reverse this. I repeat, do not use lethal means unless there is literally, utterly no other way to remain safe. Please, also try to keep those who are currently paranoid safe as well, we have a hunch that is also based on-

[A stumble, which he automatically rights. He's gonna run out of breath at this point.]

-based on astrology. If you have anyone who needs help that you can't get to- say so here, and someone will try to get to them. The non-persona user population is also affected, so please keep that in mind.

[Ideo suddenly shifts the view off himself, towards the skittering scorpions currently tailing him at an eerily quick clip. He doesn't linger too long on them, and turns the view back with a wince. Basically a confirmation for 'injured'.]

There are also monsters about- those things are not demons, but please avoid them at all possible. If any of the other Seven could contact me asap that would also be very appreciated. Th-thank you-

[And the feed ends that abruptly.]

[Oh sure, Theodore has noticed things have been getting a little... hectic recently, especially since both of his sisters seem to be affected, but this might also be the only time these things get given away! Even if he might have to

oh no he's not lying he's lied by omission enough since he came here he's so not.

In any case, he's going to be giving out his ill luck gotten prizes! It expands quite far and, after asking a rather paranoid looking man pleasantly if he could use his cart for his plush display, Theodore's got them all nice and orderly from the first to hopefully to go (Mara--) to the least likely to go (... Mara? Ghoul.) and everything nightmareish in between. And, of course, the best way to advertise is to put it where everyone can see it! The advertisement, that is.

Which is where the network comes in. He's mastered this thing, oh yes he has, and it's staring right at what appears to have once been a simple cart for merchandise now filled to the brim with plushes ranging from large to small of Persona and demons that are not cute nor elegant and most some part a side the doesn't exactly want to think about of his guest.

Theodore clears his throat. The only bad part about this is that it's raining, and he's looking quite soaked. The plush are fine though! Sadly his blue resident clothes are not. Perhaps he should invest in those clothes he'd gotten... Ah, oh well.]


Good day, Hinoto-Ri. Might I interest you all in some... exquisitely made dolls? I have everything from the, ah, powerful Mara to the beginner's Ghoul. If you ask for one, there are chances I may have it so long as it is of the more, um, frightening designs. It is the time of the year for frightful items, correct? [... Maybe this was a bad idea who'd want these things-- stay strong!] And they are all for free. Or, if you'd be willing, I would like to trade them for dolls of the Jack family in particular, and I will give you a large sum if you manage upon a King Frost.

[Fool proof.]

I will be traveling through most of the districts with the exception of the Taurus, so if you see me please do not hesitate to stop me and ask for one. [A pause, and for a second he seems desperate.] Please. I will first be centered in Libra where my current residence is and I will continue throughout the city all day until the last of these are in the hands of someone who will cherish them.

[Please take these from me, his eyes seem to say. But that's ridiculous right? A resident's supposed to accept all parts of an individual. But they never said they had to like the form they came in. A list for reference, by the way, of his wares. Personas in front, Demons in back of his cart. Simply ask!]
