[ Have one smiling ninja on your screens this morning. ]

Good morning, everyone! A few months ago, with the help of my friend Raine, I came up with something similar to an item back on my world: gels!

[ She then proceeds to describe gels, adding: ]

I know that some of the foods and herbs here are different, but I managed to get them pretty close to the apple and lemon flavors for physical healing, and the orange and pineapple flavors for restoring mana--or magic ability.

The sweeter-tasting ones heal the least amount, by the way, but are still good to have around.

And they do work! [ Just don't ask her how she knows. She hasn't even told her friends that. ] However, they don't completely heal, and they don't take care of poisoning or other effects like that; they're only a stop-gap until you can get the help needed.

I will be giving the KPD and the Healers' Guild a supply for emergencies. [ You know, like when cultists attack?

She'll also be selling them at the Jasmine Dragon for snacks and for those who just want something for traveling. ] If you have any questions, feel free to ask!

[ Hey, fellow Turtle-dwellers! Have a smiling, yet curious, Sheena appear on your screens. ]

Hello, everyone! Does anyone know if there's a weaponsmith who makes bows? [ Yep. Sheena knows how to use one! ] It's been a while since I've used one, and I'd really like to get back to that.

[ She starts to cut the feed, then stops. ]

And if anyone knows where I can target practice, that would be great!

Thanks!

[ Sheena's broadcasting in voice so no one can see how tired she is between work and keeping Gnome around for as long as she possibly can so he can work.

But it's still pretty obvious in her voice--which doesn't seem quite as robust as usual. As if she's trying not to yawn. ]

Ummm... This will probably sound like a strange question, but has anyone ever had separate dreams combine into one dream--yet still be totally real at the same time?

I've never had anything like that happen before I came here...

[ Whoops. Maybe this is something she should have discussed with Raine? ]

Thanks.

[ And a small yawn comes through before the feed ends. ]

[ The video opens not with a shot of Sheena, but of Gnome, who's out among the tilled rows of now poisoned crops. His anger is obvious as he stalks through the destruction muttering to himself but not touching anything.

Soon, Sheena's voice can be heard. ]

Hello, everyone. This is Sheena Fujibayashi, and that's Gnome. Some of you might remember him from when the greenhouses were put up not too long ago. For those who don't, don't panic. Despite how he looks, Gnome's actually trying to help here. He's the Summon Spirit of Earth, and he's working on fixing the soil.

[ The camera shifts to show Sheena's grim expression. ]

Sadly, I don't think this can be a quick fix. He's never seen a contamination like this before--

[ Suddenly, there's a loud WHUMP and making a startled sound, Sheena turns the camera for a brief glimpse of Gnome sitting down. ]

What the...? Gnome?!

[ And the feed ends. ]

ninjainviolet

[ Sheena appears on the screen, looking a little harried, but one gets the feeling that she's kind of used to it. Possibly enjoying it--if her smile is any indication. However, there's also a hint of a business-like attitude as she begins to speak. ]

Hello, everyone. [ The faint sounds of a restaurant can be heard behind her as she speaks. ] My name is Sheena Fujibayashi, and I would like to officially announce that I am the new owner of the Jasmine Dragon Tea House started by Iroh in the Sky Sector. [ She chuckles. ] And I'm not changing a thing! [ Except for maybe adding some lemon-style cookies to the menu.

She will admit, though, that she's a little behind in submitting the complete information (info page) to the city's government, but in the meantime... ]

Plus, we're hiring for a number of positions! If you've worked here before and would like your job back--no problem! However, experience isn't necessary. if you can prove to me that you can do the job you're applying for, then you got it.

I have several Kedanese employees, but I still need more managers, hosts, dishwashers and servers. [ There's a quiet tone in her voice that practically screams "if you can't work with the Kedan, don't bother applying". She's not having any of that. ]

If you have any questions, or want to apply, feel free to contact me! Thank you.

[ ooc: Working on the info page for "official" applications. :) ]

[Fai is once again in the kitchen of the Midnight Hotel, this time wearing a plain old white apron instead of his frilly pink one (and of course, the ever-present eyepatch over his left eye). He's got his handset propped up on the counter and he's sitting with his elbows on the counter and his chin in his hands, and there's a book of some sort laying open between him and the screen.]

Hello again, everyone! I was wondering: how many of you out there like to cook? Or even if you don't really like it, how many of you have recipes you might be willing to share? [One hand drops down to pat the book in front of him] I'm trying to collect some new ideas for things to make.

Even if you can't really remember the exact recipe, if you know the basic ingredients I might be able to work off of that! And I'd be willing to share the results, of course~

[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.

flowrite

[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.]

((ooc: anyone can feel free to respond to the trolls :3 ))

flowrite

[The video switches on to the sight of a pretty man with an eyepatch and a mop of blond hair, grinning and waving back at the camera. He's wearing what looks like a slim black kedanese suit, which shows off just how skinny he is, and... yes. That's a frilly pink apron over the suit.]

Hello everyone!

[His voice is light and high, his tone cheerful and friendly.]

I suppose I should introduce myself, shouldn't I? My name is Fai. I'm new to this world--it's nice to meet everyone! Well, sort of. [He laughs] It looks like I'm going to be helping in the kitchen at the Midnight Hotel for a while, and a little bird told me today is Valentine's Day. We didn't have Valentine's Day where I'm from, but my companions and I learned about it during our travels and I rather like the idea. So~~

[He turns the handset toward the room behind him--it's the kitchen of the Midnight Hotel, and it's absolutely full of treats. Chocolate cakes, heart-shaped chocolates, cake pops... you name it, Fai's probably made it, and everything looks professionally-made and delicious. He starts speaking again without moving the camera back to himself.]

My chocolate fondant was quite a hit a few worlds ago, so I thought I'd see what I could whip up. But.... As you can see, I may have gone a little overboard. So if anyone out there needs a treat for a friend or a co-worker, or a sweetheart or a ~potential sweetheart~, please stop by! I'm not charging much, so everyone can afford what they'd like. And if you're nice I might take special requests~

((ooc: Please feel free to toss an action thing at me and have someone stop by in person :3 ))

[Hi there, Keeliai. Remember this guy? It's been a while.

He's sitting in what looks like a cafe out in the city. For those who don't remember him from his previous stay, he's beautiful, with striking eyes that unfortunately have some pretty dark circles under them. He looks like he hasn't slept well in ages. He's wearing a three-piece suit and cradling a cup of something in his hands--lid on, because his hands shake.

He's... seen better days.

When he speaks, he's got a pronounced Irish accent.]

Right, I... I'm back. Surprise. [He smiles and his face lights up for a moment before the smile slips.]

I don't know how many of the people I knew are left. I know... I know we're missing some. [Studiously going to avoid mentioning Anton, thank you very much.] If you're still around and we were friends, or... talked, maybe drop me a line? And hello to all the newcomers. I know I've spoken with a few of you.

I'm back at the shelter, so. I mean, Brigid and Sonja are doing the real work, the paperwork and all that. I couldn't keep paperwork straight these days if I tried.

[The thought trails off. He looks a bit lost.]

If anyone happens to spot a talking skeleton, let me know, will you? He's got another punch coming if he shows his face again. And... if anyone happens to spot a tall, skinny redhead with an accent like mine, please tell him I'm looking for him.

[ Sheena's smiling on everyone's screens, but there's a questioning glint in her eyes. ]

I know there are different festivals and holidays here, but I was wondering if anyone was familiar with Thanksgiving and Christmas?

Or if you had similar holidays of Thanks and Fellowship this time of year?

[ Could she be planning something? Maybe. Maybe not. She was going to have to talk to Raine first. And not just about having a dinner party. Perhaps it's time for Sheena to find her own place. ]

This is Shay Cormac. I need help down at the Courtyard of Public Opinion. There's some kind of smoke in the air, too, so I'd recommend you bring something to block your mouth and nose.

((OOC: Related to this log.))

[Deon's voice sounds a little different, like it's slightly...processed. The panic, however, is very real.]

Anyone with experience in robotics or engineering, come to the College labs immediately. Please. It's urgent.

What does this giant turtle eat?

[ he knows steve is here -- and who knows how many people gunning to catch him. which explains the anonymous text.

also sometimes ex-winter soldiers get curious in between relentlessly stalking the network. ]

highprofilerichkid

((In response to all this nonsense.))

Yes. Milyn's alive. We faked her death so nobody would get it into their head to try again. Maybe it wasn't the best thing to do, but we didn't have much time to make a decision. I'm sorry we lied to all of you.

And before anyone asks, no, we're not handing her over to anyone for any of her proven or unproven crimes. Keeliai has the right to decide if she's guilty or not and what her punishment should be, but it'll be when there's a real representative government and a real judicial system in place, and when we've figured out what the hell is going on. Not before then. Because right now, the city is basically being run by the guy who probably tried to have her assassinated. I'm not handing her over to anything less than a fair trial. That's not up for negotiation. If you've got a problem with that, you can bring it to me.

[He may not have liked this plan, but he went along with it, and it's his responsibility to own it.]

Also, if anyone's thinking of going after her again...

[There's an odd emphasis on "anyone" - Tony knows the Foreigners probably aren't the only ones listening in.]

Don't bother.

[Cold, hard, final. The message is clear: Milyn is protected.]

[Sometime during the afternoon roundabout the 6th]

Ms. Finn, do you have a minute?

ironrule

[Yes, you read that right. An NPC has gotten hold of a radio handset, and is broadcasting a message to the Foreigners -- and hopefully only the Foreigners.

Specifically, for anyone in a position to recognise her voice, it's Meisheng, Yunxu's former right-hand who vanished after Milyn's death two months ago. She sounds harried and rushed, but otherwise confident and unafraid.]

Yunxu ordered the hit. Milyn poisoned Shudder. They've both done unconscionable things aside from that, and I've been -- well, keeping quiet for much too long.

[There's a pause.]

I can't for the life of me understand why anyone thought he was innocent.

[And another pause.]

I have twenty minutes. If you want to know more, I'll tell you all I can.

omnivident

So, does anyone else find the never-ending winter annoying or is that just me?

[ Yes, he is kind of fed up with the constant cold, sleet, and snow. It's May for Pete's sake. ]

Ahem, besides that...[ a momentary pause-- he really doesn't want to be considered crazy for what he's about to say. ] did anyone else get visited by a small child that didn't say anything?

Private to Klaus

Sir, are you, uh, busy right now?

sadisticmoose

Who's looking after this network now?

[A familiar-sounding Aussie voice.]

I'm interested in learning how it works. Anyone who can tell me, get in touch.

peridiot

[Peridot sounds freaked.]

Help help help help help!!! The Shay has gotten violent and he was on the Morrigan but now he left and I don't know where he is!

This could be really, really bad!
