When the feed snaps on, it reveals Kotoha, sitting calmly in a chair. She fiddles with the bow at the back of her neck for a few seconds before launching into a spiel.

"Hi, my name's Kotoha, and I have a question."

There's slight hint of urgency in her voice, and her blue eyes are intense as she leans forward slightly to ask her question.

"Why is everyone so pretty?"

...wait what.

"Is it, like, a requirement? 'You must be this sexy to save the world'? I mean, I know I'm pretty, but I've met people here that rank right up there with Elesa, and she's a supermodel."

She leans back and drums her heels against the floor.

"It's not fair! How am I supposed to get anything done when I'm constantly distracted like this?!"

She bounces to her feet at that and starts pacing, letting out a little growl of frustration.

"Urrrrr! Stupid teenage hormones!"

*Failed Filter to the IT*

[The COMP turns on to show Yukiko looking less than specatular; she's been letting out some pent up frustration on some monsters around the Virgo District and she may have bitten off more than she could chew. Needless to say, there is a beaten up and bloodied priestess on the network.]

I'm sorry...but if anyone was wondering where I've...been...I'm okay. Just a little...

[She stops and the device falls from her hand, landing on the ground. Not even a second after that, she too collapses and blacks out. The feed is still going but Yukiko isn't moving an inch. Someone might wanna stop by Virgo before the monsters see her.]




((OOC: No responses will come from her obviously so if anyone wants to talk with her, they need to see her in person.))

Heeeey, is this thing even on? How am I supposed to even tell if it's on?

[ It's definitely on, and Chie's on camera. Just your average short haired, kung fu loving steak addict. ]

Listen up! I have a question I totally need answered.

Has anyone ever seen two copies of people? Like, there's one, who knows everything you know, and then another who doesn't?

[ Chie's not exactly a wordsmith, she's better at kicking people. ]

Oh, and does anyone know where I can get the best steak in the city? This is very important, I haven't had anything as good as Aiya's beef bowl since I got here!

[ Maybe some manly boxer will be able to point her in the right direction. ]

[Kanji is...admittedly really bad at keeping up with the times around here. He'd been way too concentrated on getting his little plush toy booth up and running in the Scorpio district, spending most of the week after his return from the tower in his room, working diligently. Unfortunately, he'd soon realize the folly of his ways and that that it would have better for him to do so, considering the strange events that have been happening all day when he finally did go out...in the afternoon, he finally posted something on the network.]

This might seem like a strange question to ask, but has anyone else be approached by the girls and...older women from the city asking you to bite them? It's freaking me out....

[He had to run away from a crowd at one point. For someone who always had trouble with girls, this is an even worse personal experience. But maybe if he'd actually listened to Yu's dramatic reading, or gone to Junes this week Kanji would have had a good idea of what is going on. Right now, there is only confusion. That would probably change soon.]

[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??]

Hey, Hinoto-Ri! I've never been happier to be here, let me tell you. It's almost like going home, after the Tower...but anyway, that's not why I'm posting.

For those of you who don't know me, I'm Rise Kujikawa. I'm an idol back home, which is a singer and an actor for people who aren't from Japan, and I got to thinking about something that my horoscope says I should bring up now - there's a lot of singers and performers in town! I've met plenty, and I know there's more hanging around, so I was wondering if anyone's ever thought of organizing a concert or something. After the last couple of months, I think people might need the kind of break some nice music can give...and I think most people have forgotten about that mess with the Jacks. I hope.

Anyway, I'm not a producer or anything, but I figure if enough of us got together we could figure something out! So...who wants to put on a concert?

[There's a (seemingly) nineteen-year-old woman on the feed again, holding up a copy of the latest book in the teens/young adults section just high enough for the watch on the table to capture it.]

For those who noticed I was gone for most of last month... I'm back.

[And somehow, all the horrors of Helltower did not prepare her for what she returned to. She reads a page, flips it, then tears the page out of the book.]

I'd say it's nice knowing not much changed, but-

[Suddenly, the page is on fire and not burning her as it's reduced to smoke and a fine ash that falls into a bucket at her feet.]

...I think some things--

[Reading, reading... Oh how she used to love reading and-- wait "Water" is the girlfriend of Earth!? And they're siblings?! NOOOOOOOOOOO. NOOOOOOOOOOO. DOES NOT COMPUTE. DOES NOT COMPUTE. DOES NOT COMPUTE.]

...can go unsaid.

[Yeah. Yeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaah. She glares at the book, still burning it page for page. Now she gets why her brother was on anon.

She places down the book, and calmly and maturely decides to say as follows:]


If you decide to burn your copies or want them reduced to ashes, please send them to me. I think I have an... appropriate use for them.

And if anyone starts calling me "Water...

[Oh, hello there venom in tone. (Where do they even get their information, anyway...?) Regardless, the feed ends soon after. Though the scent of burning pages can be smelled all throughout the Castle of Departure.]

[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.]

[The screen flickers on to reveal Apollo, who seems to appear a little more self-confident than usual, if such a thing can be quantified by appearance.]

Hey, everybody! This is Apollo Justice. I'm just letting you know that, as of yesterday, I've officially been hired as an attorney in Hinoto-Ri! So if any of you ever get into any legal trouble, like being falsely accused of murder, I could probably help you out. My first client in Hinoto-Ri is someone who's accused of murdering another person during the chaos of that incident in the arena. Wish me luck! [He's probably going to need it.]

By the way, I'm currently looking for someone to serve as my co-council. You might not think you're qualified to help out a lawyer, but believe me, if a 15-year-old magician girl could serve as a reliable co-council for me, I think some of you could, too. [Not to talk smack about Trucy or anything, of course.] Granted, said magician girl was the daughter of one of the best attorneys I know, but if you bring some deductive skills, I think you should be fine. If you're interested, just let me know and I'll tell you when I have to come into court.

[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, everyone! You may have already noticed from the stores, but tomorrow is a holiday called Valentine's Day. I know not everyone is from Earth so I thought that it might be good to explain it.

Valentine's Day started in the West as a religious holiday, but it's turned into a holiday for showing people you love them! In some countries, you mostly give gifts to your girlfriend or boyfriend. In Japan (and Hinoto-ri) though, it's different. On Valentine's Day, women give chocolates to the men they know, and next month, on White Day, the men give gifts in return. Giving a guy fancy chocolates means you really like them! (o⌒.⌒o)♡

[If this were voice, this is where it would turn more serious.] A lot of us are waiting for people to come home, and we don't know how we can help that to happen yet. The people you love the most might not even be in the city at all. But we can still have fun for a day. And who knows... they might even show up tomorrow in time to celebrate.

...Anyway, if there are any girls (or boys, even) who want to learn how to make Valentine chocolates, come stop by the Iwatodai Dorm today. I have some ingredients ready. [attached: directions.txt] And if you have a recipe of your own you want to try, bring what you need and we'll make it, too!


Action at the dorm )

[Action: Amagi Inn]

[It's only been a week since the place sprung up from the ground and Yukiko has been hard at work trying to clean the place up. After the first contact, the city had mentioned a company that would send people over to become her new staff. Only problem is that they won't arrive until next week, without a doubt due to the Grand Prix coming up. At first Yukiko was fine with it and she could get things straightened around so it would be nice for the soon-to-be workers.

She didn't expect any kind of pest problem to occur. And not just any kind of pests like the normal bugs, rats, or others. These buggers were demons. Not just any demons...

Pyro Jacks.

Those little bastards who were half the reason why the holidays went crazy are relaxing in her hot spring and having a lovely time. Well, until Yukiko showed up.]


GET OUT OF HERE!!!

[That's the polite way to say it...]


[Video: Glasses Vision]

[When the video turns on, the first thing people will notice that it's dark with little spots of floating light popping up. And is that...laughter? Damn pumpkin thing!]

I have a pest problem right now: Pyro Jacks have somehow decided to invade this place and I need them out before any damage can get done!

[Wood and fire? Yeah, do not mix. Even with Amaterasu standing there for light purposes, it's not helping the situation.]

If anyone has ice powers, an ice persona, or can get rid of pests, I can use your help at the inn in Scorpio. I don't have much for payment but when it opens, I can at least give you a free night's stay.

[Now if you excuse her, she has some Pyro Jacks to boot out.]

[Action - Ichiban Market, Virgo District]

[It's been a few days since the market from home appeared in Hinoto-Ri, and Nano's taking full advantage of the convenience and familiarity of the location.  She spends a good few hours shopping around for various ingredients and household necessities, filling up her shopping bags with soy sauce, daikon radish, leeks, miso, rice, and all sorts of other ingredients common to traditional Japanese meals.  Feeling very at ease here in a place that's almost second nature to her, she hums cheerily to herself while she's collecting everything.

Unfortunately, after she's paid for everything and is carrying everything out in a large brown paper bag, her nice casual shopping trip takes a turn for the worse.  Right after emerging from the store, and completely without warning, Nano's left arm falls completely limp.  She lets out a surprised yell as the grocery bag goes tumbling from her arms, its contents spilling out all over the sidewalk.  Immediately recognizing something as deeply wrong, Nano glances around quickly and starts to scramble to pick everything up with her one good arm.]


[Video]

[Eventually Nano makes it home, and after no small amount of privately worrying and panicking, she turns on the COMP to reach out for some help.  It's not help she particularly wants to ask for, but she has no idea what's wrong or how to fix it on her own.  She's doing her best to hide the fact that one arm is completely out of commission, aiming the shot at her face only.]


U-um... I hate to impose, but is there anyone out there who knows a lot about fixing things?  My, um...

[She glances around the room briefly before returning her gaze to the camera.]

My television is broken!
gigglesnortpriestess: (turn my back)
[personal profile] gigglesnortpriestess
[She's been trying to contact a certain person for a bit but there was no answer on the COMP or at her place. Just as she came, they let her go. Her best friend is gone and Yukiko just...didn't know what to do. She didn't know if anyone else knew but just in case, a text will pop up on the network.]

If anyone knew Chie Satonaka, she's not in the city anymore. I think she went back home.

[Maybe she did, who knows.]
