[ Here's a face you haven't seen on the consoles in a while, Keeliai. In fact, it's been about 15 months, and he's looking (if you can see him) plain gobsmacked. ]

Uh. Please tell me someone's been messing with the date feature on the consoles.

[ And then under his breath: ]

Or I'm in major trouble.

[The video flips on to show Erskine, gorgeous as always, and actually not looking dog-tired for once! In fact, he's smiling. This is possibly the happiest Erskine has looked on the network while sober.

...which probably has to do with the attractive redhead hovering in the background. Those who've seen Erskine's echo stone will recognize Hopeless. Those who haven't might recognize the man Erskine's been attached at the hip to for the last couple of weeks.]


Right, hello everyone. So, Hopeless had a question--

[The redhead in the background scoffs gently.]

Alright, we had a question. How old are all you Foreigners out there? We're interested in age demographics. You can be vague if you like, and you don't have to answer of course.

And in the spirit of sharing, I... missed my last birthday. It was in February. Which I suppose makes me 409 now.

[The video opens with Fai standing outside in the streets of Keeliai, in the Central district not far from the Midnight Hotel. He's grinning at the camera like a giant dork. Probably because he is a giant dork. The video is shot so that not much shows beneath the collar of his coat.]

Kuro-pu~~

[There is a gruff, Kurogane-type voice in return.]

What is it, darling?

[Fai ducks his head to the side a little.]

Aww, Kuro-cutie always says the sweetest things~

[There is something tiny and stifled that might be a giggle, but it's certainly not coming from Fai. The voice that answers is again the deep, gruff voice of the ninja.]

Kurogane might be the sweetest, but Fai is the cutest~ ♥

[There's a heart audible in that voice. There should not be audible hearts.

The giggle can no longer be stifled, and out of Fai's coat pops a small white creature with long ears, a cheerful expression, and a red jewel in the middle of its forehead.

...Mokona is laughing. A lot. Actually they're both cracking up pretty badly.]

[She's been here for a little while now, a few weeks at least, but the network is something Makoto has been avoiding. It's kind of scary and this place is weird as hell. However, the time has come for the girl to speak up.

Thus when the feed kicks in, there's a nervous looking teenager staring awkwardly at the camera. She lifts a hand in a slight wave.]


So um. Hi!

[God, how does she even do this.]

My name is Makoto Konno.

[So far, so good.]

I'm kinda new here so, I don't really know much about what's going on. What I do know is I'm kinda running low in the money department, and the welcome center has been a big help but I don't want to keep living off free, stuff, y'know?

[She's babbling and she knows it. Time to get to the point.]

So... Can anyone help me with finding a job? O-or just point me in the right direction to find one? Man, I've never really thought about this before. I thought I still had plenty of time before I had to worry about this. I really need to cut my folks some slack...

[Babbling again, mostly to herself. Makoto realizes she's still broadcasting and shoots the camera a surprised look, one hand waving in dismissal.]

Aaah ignore that last part! Thank you!

[That could of gone better.]

[Alright, she's got this, she can totally do this. Not for the first time, Marinette is incredibly glad people talk to each other here through things that she cannot hope to drop. Because if it was something like her phone?

Yeah, she would have dropped it by now. As it is, she's smiling brightly into the screen as she waves.]


Hello! My name is Marinette and I just got here!

[Yes thank you Marinette that is very helpful.]

Oh. That's probably obvious. Well, it's true! And I can sort everything out on my own, but- well, I don't have much money yet. I was wondering, where is somewhere I can go that has inexpensive foods? I'm not picky, but if there are cookies that would be wonderful.

[Gotta feed that kwami, after all.]

Thank you!

[ Brigid tucks hair behind her ear, looking at the computer in front of her. ]

While I appreciate the welcome, and the information, I have to say that I am unimpressed with the method by which I was brought.

[ Meaning, she’s a little salty right now. ]

I don’t suppose there is a school I could teach at is there? I can translate four languages, speak two, and have a doctorate in Irish history.

[ She’s hoping there’s some call for her skills somewhere in this place. ]

If not, I also have some skill with Krav Maga and could, potentially, teach that, if there’s some call for it. Basically, I wish to teach. If someone could direct me to a few opportunities, I’d be grateful.

[ She leans forward and cuts off the feed. ]

[It might be starting to get a little warm for winter clothes, but with a torn coat and the clothes underneath being a bit too light, Xion doesn't really have anything else in her wardrobe at the moment. All the same, after walking around Agrabah in black leather, the slightly overwarm feeling from her clothes barely registered.

Plus it covered up the bandaging on her upper arm. The only real evidence of her ordeal ten days ago was a certain degree of tiredness in her expression. She's bearing up reasonably well though, and smiles a bit sheepishly at the feed.]


Hey um... I'm Xion. And I wanted to let everybody who heard that... [Who heard Yosuke's very panicked radio broadcast.] Well, that I'm okay. I'm really sorry if anybody was worried.

[Because really, they didn't need to be worrying about her. Really. Please don't.]

Also, it may seem kind of strange but... back home, sometimes different flowers could mean things. I guess... do are there flowers here with other meanings too? And how would I find them out?

With bonus action option around the Midnight Hotel )

[This is an announcement which will play across the screen of every console in Keeliai, regardless of whether anyone is logged in. Once it ends, it can be viewed on any console at any time.

Some of the Foreigners more interested in the politics of Keeliai will recognise Meisheng, Tu Yunxu's second-in-command, though only barely - she's shifted her appearance as far as is possible without looking like someone entirely different. She looks sharper, older, and not quite human, but it's difficult to pinpoint exactly what about her appearance isn't human. Maybe it's the way her brow is a little thicker, or the way the pupils of her eyes have grown a little narrower.

Her smile is the same double-edged cheerful smile it always has been.]


Thanks to the assistance of the Foreigners, we've managed to apprehend two of the perpetrators responsible for the widespread muggings. Their names are Malcil and Berruz. Anyone with further information on these two individuals - or, of course, on any others involved in the muggings - are encouraged to speak to myself or Yunxu. Any of the Huŏ-si patrolling the city will be able to tell you where to find us.

We've also become aware of a new substance being sold to non-kedan which grants shapeshifting abilities. I would like to remind our guests that substances of this kind are not only illegal, they're dangerous. Please inform us if you know where any is being sold, or have reason to suspect any is being used.

[She pauses, brow furrowing slightly. That was the extent of what she was asked to say - now she's only debating whether to add her own thoughts. A moment later, she does, her smile softening.]

And I would like to personally extend a warm welcome to those who are here because of the festival. Your situation isn't ideal, but fortunately, many of you aren't alone. I'm sure if a way to return you to your homes is discovered, it will be made publicly available.



[OOC Note: Except under very special circumstances, Meisheng won't respond to any replies made on this post. Feel free to respond to each other, though - fourth wall characters in particular!]
