skybluejeep[Stiles is much, much happier than the last time he made a network post. He's also in a considerably different location. He's not in his suite in the Earth sector. In fact, for those who pay attention to these sorts of things, they'll note that he's calling it in from Derek's network ID. Welp.]
Ladies and gentlemen of Keelai, I have a very important announcement to make. Today, April the eighth, marks a momentous occasion in history. A day to be spoken of in legend and myth and song, when the stars and planets align, and rainbows and puppies spontaneously appear.
I am eighteen.
You are looking at an official man, everybody. It is my birthday, hosanna hosanna, hallelujah and so on.
Since Amazon gift registries aren't a thing here, I'll be happy to provide a written list of acceptable tributes and gifts, form an orderly line if you please, no shoving.

April 2nd, 2014 15:47asoothingvoice[Bianca's at one of the consoles in the hospital's ground floor again; this time, it's much easier to tell it's a hospital thanks to the construction and refurnishing being completely finished.]
Hi everyone, I know we've had some more arrivals [A slightly wry smile, because there's nothing new about that], so let me introduce myself first. I'm Bianca Reyes, I help run Eshai Memorial Hospital here, if you ever get sick or injured, just so you know. [There's a location ping attached, showing where it is in Metal.]
Before I get to my main announcement, I want to give everyone a warning. One of the teenagers here isn't as innocent as we've been led to believe. He's also at least one of the ones going around on the network anonymously making incendiary comments.
[There's a link to Bakura's last network post.]
He has no problem with problems with make death threats, made a horror movie style monster appear and then disappear, and he tried to make me forget my encounter with him. Just in case anyone's seen anything like that or has gaps in their memories.
[He had a warning, and plenty of time. She's not just going to allow someone like that to wander around with no problem.]
Moving on from that, now that the hospital is finally set up, [Instead of being half finished] I'd like to announce that we'll be having a blood drive open to the whole population here in Keeliai. It'll be in four days, to give everyone who wants to take part a chance to make sure they can donate. We've spread some flyers to some of the larger markets and grocers about what foods are good to eat before you donate. If you aren't sure, just drink plenty of water and eat dark green leafy vegetables. Seaweed's a good source of iron.
If you aren't sure about donating blood, or you're afraid of needles, think about it as doing something to help yourself and others in the future. There aren't enough of us here that emergency transfusions are easily possible, especially if you're not human. [Looking at you, Arthur.]
There'll be snacks for everyone donating, but we can turn it into a potluck. Make it a small party.
Don't be afraid of asking any questions you might have.

skybluejeep[Stiles has been noticeably quiet since the events in Bottle Land. No network posts, no snarky comments. No usual spastic self. He's been holed up and licking his mental wounds.
Until now. Because something has happened that's the diarrhea icing on the shit cake of his life recently.]
Lydia Martin is gone.
[That's it. That's all you get today, gang. Sorry. Somebody buy this boy a drink or a puppy or something. He's going to go full Anakin Skywalker here in a bit if something drastic isn't done.]

skybluejeepWelp. I'm getting kinda sick of this part of life here. Any old time we can stop with the random vanishings, that'd be stellar.
Isaac Lahey's suite is empty. He's gone. No idea when that happened. Allison Argent also vanished earlier this month. So that's a thing that's happened.
So, now that my abandonment issues have really been given plenty of fuel to last me through at least my mid-life crisis, a question. Last month due to the generosity of Tony Stark, I got my jeep back. Through careful conservation, I've managed to keep her running.
Except now a certain little dial is hovering just above the E on the left, and I'm kinda screwed. Anybody know where a guy can get his hands on some highly-refined petroleum? I'm not picky, the jeep can run on 87 octane, don't need any of that high-falutin' 93 stuff. Because, you know, the back of a giant turtle is probably full of crude oil deposits.
Oh, wait.

January 12th, 2014 21:54iwannabeadragonI knew I’d get this thing on eventually. All it it needed was a few swift kicks to help it along.
[Hawke looks rather smug with himself right now. Despite the crash course given to him, of which he may have zoned out of once or twice, he understands this console about as much as he does magic. The fact he got it working on his own means a lot to him.]
Alright, from what I hear this place is in need of heroes and the like. So much so in fact that they’ve started kidnapping people right off the street. Now I don’t mean to criticize your emperor, but that’s exactly what I’m going to do. Generally it’s considered good manners to ask someone for help instead of just grabbing them by their short and curlies and just dragging them off somewhere.
[He wags his finger in a very ‘you should be ashamed of yourself’ manner.]
Maker, at least people in Kirkwall gave me the illusion of choice before asking me to do something stupid and dangerous. They usually pay me too.
[When he sighs it’s utterly exaggerated.]
Oh well, no use in complaining I suppose.
[Of course that doesn’t mean he’s actually going to stop anytime soon.]
Since I’m here I may as well play along. Chances are this is all some kind of Fade...dream...thing, so what’s the worst that can happen? Besides the possibility of demonic possession.

December 27th, 2013 13:44saviormaiden[ The video feed cuts on to show a very irritated looking girl. She seems to be in her late teens, and her thick lips are pursed tightly. The look might be a slightly familiar one for some residents, or ones that have seen the other Hale around. ]
Look, I feel really bad for this place and all. [ The sarcasm drips off of every word. ] My heart bleeds, really. But I don't have time for this, I have my own 'battles' to fight.
[ She's Not Pleased, capitalization included. She's frustrated that she's been taken against her will, taken so soon after she had been down and out for so long. The people weren't even clear if her brother was here.
She hopes it's not the Alpha pack. ] Derek, are you here? We need to figure out a plan to get home. I'm not twiddling my thumbs in this place any longer than I have to, this isn't my war to fight.
[ Cora is very adamant about this. She also might be thinking of a way to tell the emperor to sit and spin. ]

December 26th, 2013 14:11watcheslanterns[When Rapunzel appears on the screen there is a smile on her face, but her brow is furrowed just enough to give off an air of concern.]
I hope everyone had a good holiday. I've never really celebrated anything like that before, so it was really fun to experience. I've never made gifts for so many people, either. I hope everyone liked them. If you don't, I'd understand though.
[She pauses, and because Rapunzel doesn't know how to filter anything yet:]
Um, I'm looking for Isaac, Derek or Lydia? I found a gift from Stiles at my door...but he didn't come in to say hello. I haven't seen him in several days now. I understand if he's busy and I just haven't seen him, but I want to make sure he was okay. I know the three of you are from the same place, so I thought maybe he would have talked to you? I've tried calling and stopping by his suite. He hasn't answered either. So please, if you could just let me know that he's okay, that would be enough. Thank you.
[ooc: if your character has had even just one conversation with Rapunzel then they likely received a knitted gift; either mittens, a hat, or scarf.]

bereavements[ When Isaac comes on the screen, he's hesitant, not wanting the answer he feels like he knows he'll get. But, also more curious than anything as if allowing himself to be hopeful will pay off. ]
Hey. Isaac. For those of you that know me. So, uh, Scott McCall hasn't come back for a few days - and he isn't at his place. [ He would be able to smell him. ] Maybe he went off or, he's spent some late clinic nights...
Anybody hear from him?
[ He's around?
Right? ]

skybluejeep[Stiles, already a big believer in layers, is wearing two sweaters, a jacket, a scarf, and even though you can't see it, has his blanket draped across his lap. He looks like what a cartoonist believes appropriate cold weather clothes looks like. Or, no, he look like Randie in A Christmas Story! Yes.]
Okay, why is it cold as balls right now? I'm from California. I'm not used to this. This is completely unacceptable. If I wanted to live like this, I'd move to freakin' Alaska and cuddle up with a polar bear. I'm going to get frostbite. Things are going to start falling off my body because of this, I know it.
Bryn, I'm calling out sick for the duration of this because if I go outside I'm going to drop dead. Of ice. I'm going to turn into an abominable snowman after all, and this time it won't be a joke.
Petition to make the turtle swim to Tahiti, sign below, thanks.

refusing[Well, here's a face that might be familiar to some people. Looking entirely perplexed by life, even though she knows what's going on. It's just taking some time to sink in, and she's rushed to send out a message because there's some people she desperately hopes are still around.]
So. I was here before. But...then I wasn't? I was here, but I left, and now I'm back again.
[Cue a very confused and frustrated Rose. Her cheeks puff out a little on the tail end of a sigh, and she gives a shake of her head.]
Typical timey wimey stuff, then. Same as always. Even without the Doctor around, it always seems to happen. Which is just great. Really, it is.
[Cue the most sarcastic smile ever. It doesn't last long, however.]
Those of you that don't know me, I'm Rose Tyler. [Have a big, warm, sincere smile and a handwave.]
Anybody out there that does know me? Go on and check in, would ya? Don't make a girl worry 'bout whether or not you're still around.

October 26th, 2013 21:09garou[ The face that greets the network is handsome, if a bit scowly. Okay, a lot scowly. Really scowly, in fact, he seriously looks like he’d rather have an acid enema right about now. Derek is not pleased to be here, is not pleased with what he was told in the throne room, and is certainly not pleased that he was shunted off to housing that he couldn’t even choose for himself.
Even if the tree house is nice, and kinda nifty.
So, yes. A pissy looking but handsome face that a few denizens of the turtle will recognize instantly, along with the calm angry tone he’s so fond of using when he’s directing his anger at something he wants to hit but knows he can’t. ] I’ve been told there might be people I know, here. Who is it, and where are you? [ He pauses for a second, and scowls even harder, like that’s even a thing that can be possible. He also crosses his arms. ] I’ve also been told I need to look for a job. My name is Derek.
[ He presses his lips together like he wants to say something else, too, but public speaking is not his forte. Besides, he’s already been assured it isn’t her fault, and if she’s here, she’ll show up. So he reaches forward and cuts the video off. ]
