 [Midii's lips were pursed together in concentration when the screen turned on, eyes turned downward.  The tip of a writing utensil could be seen moving as she jotted down one last note before looking up.]

Something was brought to my attention recently.  I can't believe I didn't think of it sooner, but it could be really important.

Allergies.

Is there anyone here who has them?  Of things from home, or maybe of something you've realized you're allergic to here.  Plants...food...metals...I'm curious to know.

[ Elizabeth doesn't look any different than when she was here three months ago, confidence with the network system and nervous concern otherwise. ]

It's really been three months? It feels more like I had a very refreshing nap, not disappeared! I know others told me this happened sometimes, but to actually experience it-- well, that's the same as anything, isn't it? It's always different in person!

Mr Klaus, I'm very sorry for unintentionally abandoning my job at the Hotel, and Mme. Eliyen, for leaving my post at the Guild without due notice.

[ She knows she couldn't have provided it, but she feels bad about it anyway. ]

Goodness but it's warm here... is this an actual heatwave? Columbia wasn't prone to these, being airborne.

Okay okay - question to all the Foreigners!

What are your favourite foods? And how are they made?

I swear this is important.

Also if somebody were, you know, writing a kind of story, which may or may not involve Foreigners, what's the rule of thumb for your biology?

...Asking for a friend.

[ Waking in a new world was definitely not something Marinette expected to greet her when she opened her eyes. On the plus side, she had her belongings with her - even Tikki, though the kwami seemed very groggy and tired. She reassured Marinette she'd be fine, it wasn't like when she got sick back then, so Marinette let the kwami sleep and devoted her attention to finding out where she was and exactly what was going on. Cut to about...two hours later, when she accesses the network, her mind spinning with the information she'd been given. ]

[ She probably found her way to one of the console cafe's honestly, but she presents herself with a polite smile (if a little bit awkward). ]
[ She pauses, as something occurs to her. Her first option should have been making her way to that Welcome Center to stay, but she had prioritized getting Tikki some food instinctively. Hopefully it'd help the kwami recover. ]

I'll ... probably be at this cafe for a little bit longer, but I really should have a look around soon too.

[ She'd totally doesn't think anyone from home is here either. She hesitates a moment to consider her topics, and finally settles on one. ]

So, I guess I'll be seeing you all around! If you've got any suggestions of places to take a look at, I'm open to ideas.

[ She needed to get her bearings in this place after all, especially with what's been going on. Once from the ground.. and then once from the air, when Tikki was recovered. Before ending her connection though, she grins and flashes a cheerful V'sign. Peace Out? ... so lame, Marinette. ]

[ Kylo Ren has been watching recent developments on Tu Vishan with growing unease. He had started out thinking Valdis an annoyance, then a danger, but with the new guild structure, the KPD's power is only being consolidated - and thus, her power. It's not a good development for an enemy of hers.

He might have been willing to let it rest, if he hadn't overheard a drugged-out-of-his-mind KPD member mention that he is on the watch list. It had been the last push to take action.

But what to do? It took more listening and more than a little bit of luck, but now Kylo is ready to send a message which will hopefully sow seeds of discontent – and isn’t that one of the strategies of the Dark Side? Not one he had bothered with before or is particularly skilled in… but before, he didn’t need to bother with subterfuge. ]


I have learned that Valdis of the KPD knew the water supply would be targeted. If you don’t believe me, ask the officers she used to aide her.

The KPD has been hunting the Cultists for months, but for all its powerful Foreigner detectives it has nothing to show.

I demand she explain why she did not prevent the attack when she knew it was coming. I demand she explain why she protects Cultists instead of our citizens. And I dare her to explain why she calls herself a protector, but carries a dangerous sword.

How can we be certain that the shapeshifter we put our trust in is who she claims to be?

All Foreigners have secrets, but I want to know if hers are dangerous to us before I can trust her again.

[The feed flicks on. This is the first time Eliyen has shown her face - all of her contact with the Foreigners up until now has been via audio. She looks like what some would describe as a "tough old bird", or a martinet - someone who won't brook any nonsense.

And on that subject, she doesn't look particularly happy.]


This is Arbitrator Eliyen of the Guild of Justice and Arbitration.

There has been an increase in crime due to the recent Dust contamination. All crimes will be treated exactly the same as they would be without the influence of the Dust, both by Foreigners and kedan. Everyone would do well to look after each other.

We will not let an event such as this disrupt the city’s day-to-day life.

...though on that note, perhaps this occurred because your fractiousness was seen as a weakness. We cannot have any weak links in the chain of the city, because one vulnerability could harm us all.

Case in point.

[She will not be replying to any comments (she's a busy woman, after all), but feel free to talk amongst yourselves!]

Weird question, but has anyone else been contacted by any of the kedan out of nowhere? Asking about your work, or anything like that?

[Hey, look, it's Adrien. He's avoided the communicators while the weird memory stuff was going on, and there's still an awkwardness about him as his face appears on the screen. People know some of his deepest secrets now, and he's not sure how to process that.

Still, this is something he's not about to let slip by. It feels important.
]

So...hi, everyone. Adrien here. Obviously.

[Okay, so he's still trying to deal with some people knowing he's not just Adrien. He'll just be nervous about that for a while. Don' mind him.]

Anyway, I realised that it was a whole year ago yesterday that I came here. So I guess that's something important, huh? I didn't even realise that much time has passed, I guess I like it here enough that the time just flew by.

...So yeah. Just thought that was something good to announce. I'm...actually really glad to have met you guys, to have the chance to live here.

[This place has given him more freedom to be himself than he could ever truly explain.]

What I mean is...thank you! For being so welcoming, for making this such a nice place to live. I'm grateful.

I realize there is an influx of new arrivals and many other things happening right now, but that's no reason to postpone important matters that I neglected for too long.

Some of you were interested in learning to use the Force before. I'm now willing to teach... if you can prove yourself worth my time.

 Right. So people have probably heard by now that the cat cafe is gone. Which means I am now officially unemployed.

Which means I guess I have to figure out how you do this jobhunting thing. Again.

Anyone got any ideas on who'd hire a teenager with barely any job skills?

Does anyone want a short ticket home, because apparently hiring anyone to do the Dojo's paperwork is a guaranteed way to disappear from this place.

[ He managed to lose not one, but both of his bookkeepers inside a week. ]

And why does it feel like the damned turtle has stalled?

[Danny Phantom and Chat Noir were superheroes. No one could argue that.

Unfortunately Danny Phantom and Chat Noir were teenage superheroes. Who had quickly discovered that not only did they share a career, but a sense of humor as well.

Which would be why the pair of them had taken over a console today.

Danny steps forward first, with a broad grin on his face.]


Ice day, isn't it? Everyone out of the doldrums? I guess even a no-wind situation can sometimes give us a break. Who'd have thawed it?


[The lesson here is never, ever, ever let these two near a communicator together. It only encourages shennanigans, and they're the kind only these two really find funny.]

I know, right? All that trouble was really starting to rain on my parade. It was a real hot topic.

Luckily, it seems to have blown over and things are looking sunny again. Even if it was all a little anti-climatic.

So, hey...

[Hey, Keelial. Remember him? He looks a lot more tired than before, his hair is ruffled and his shirt looks partly undone. It looks like he's sat in the College.]

Anyone noticed the pattern on the Turtle's shell? It's... pulsing. It started like... three? Four days ago? The time between the pulses is getting shorter.

I'm not sure what this means, but... hey. It sounds important, right? I've done some math and, well... I think... [Yawn.] ...I think the pulses are gonna stop in a week or so. If the period between them keeps getting shorter.

Assuming that's what this is.

[Danny takes a moment to wince and rub his forehead. Nothing gave you a headache like being split into two people for several days.]

So, I don't suppose anyone could tell me that last week was just some kind of really messed up nightmare.

[He sighs.]


Yeah, like I could be that lucky. If anyone needs me I'll be hiding somewhere pretending that last week never happened.

[Oh look, it's Kylo Ren and he is looking grumpy. Wow. This has never happened before.]

If anybody knows a small annoying green creature with green hair, could you point me her way? I need to speak to her about something important.

[He hesitates before continuing, frowning at the camera for a while and apparently struggling with himself.]

I take it nobody knows what became of Padme Amidala, Anakin Skywalker and Galen Marek. I found their houses abandoned.

[And then it's back to annoyance again, since there is one more thing he might as well address while has everybody's attention.] As for the person who thought it amusing to send me flowers: I don't appreciate you littering my house with weeds.

So it looks like I'm going to need to get a job pretty soon. [Danny makes a face at the idea. His only job experience was the time he subbed for Val as the mascot at the local fast food place. It was miserable. ]

Anyone got any ideas? I'm kind of stumped.

[The only job he actually had experience with was ghost-fighting. But he was almost certain that half-ghost part-time ghost-fighting vigilante didn't belong on any resume ever.]

[Kevas tires of camping around the outskirts of the city. Tough as a troll might be, he's a jungle troll. All this cold and drizzle eats at him. He wants no more of it. Time to find a place for him to call his own for a while. First thing's first though, he needs money.]

Not sure how to go about dis other den just sayin' it, but I be needin' money and a place to stay. Now don't go thinkin' I be wantin' handouts cause I don't. Last thing I be wantin' is to be in some mon's debt. I be wantin' to work for my stay.

[Kevas tries his best to appear professional but it feels weird going about finding work this way. In Azeroth finding mercenary work is as easy as stepping into town, here not so much.]

I be a mercenary, former soldier, and somethin' of a wanderer.

[He doesn't like using the term 'adventurer'. It sounds too heroic. Kevas knows he's no hero.]

If any mons be needin' protection, a bodyguard, or help with gang problems I be willin' to offer my services for some steady pay. If dere be other services ya be needin' den give me da details and I'll talk to ya.

[After his talk at the Welcome Center he's trying real hard to avoid the 'kill for money' part of his job. Murder might not be a big deal to him but that seems to be a big no no in this place. Last thing he wants right now is a bad reputation. Then he won't get anywhere.

Unless someone wants to pay him extremely well.]


Also, I be wantin' speak with a Pepper Pots or Bakura about some kind of uh...police force?

[The way he says it makes it clear he's not too sure what that is.]

As long as ya ain't be military, and as long as ya be offerin' a fair price, I'd like to talk with some mon about dat.

Is a non-working vacation too much to ask for? I mean, come on. One day off. After what happened last week I deserve that.

[A dark-haired teenage boy is scowling unhappily into the camera. He sighs heavily and drags a hand through his hair. Somehow it always ended up like this.]

Okay, so let me just get this straight.The giant turtle is actually a thing? Someone isn't just pulling a really elaborate joke on me?

[He sighs.]

Yeah, never mind. Don't even bother answering that. I think I already know the answer.

Could this possibly get any weirder? [He freezes and moans miserably.] ...Oh, great. I think I just jinxed myself.
