[Hello Asgard!! Diva is cheerfully greeting you with a bright smile today, and she's even accompanied by someone else! However, he doesn't seem nearly as cheerful as she does, and it's pretty clear that he was probably forced into doing this post with her. Such is the life of a Chevalier.

But after giving a smile to the video, she looks down at the grumpy boy that she's hovering close to.]

Hey, come on Carl, go ahead! You can't be shut up in your room all the time... That's really boring.

[She even nudges him a little bit to encourage him to start talking]

[Reluctant doesn't even begin to cover how this kid looks right now. He's completely out of his element. The screen receives a marginally uncomfortable look, and when he speaks, it's clear he's still not addressing the network on a whole.]

What do you even want me to say? [He's not good at this being social thing!]

Huh? It's not what I want you to say. This is for you! You're the one that should be making friends...

[She frowns, like this is the worst of fates!]

I don't know... You could start with your name, I guess. And what you like...? Ah, or maybe I'll just introduce you first!

[Without asking his input on this matter, she looks back at the camera, smiling sweetly]

So! This is my Chevalier, Carl. Ah, but he goes by Charles for everyone else. That's right, right?

[His nose wrinkles a little. 'Making friends', geez. But he'll humor Diva to the best of his abilities for the time being, giving a small nod.]

That's correct. [There's a slight shift, and he turns to face the camera again.]

Hello. I suppose a few of you might already know me, but for those who don't, you may call me Charles. [There, that part wasn't so bad!] I enjoy the theatre, fine literature and, ah-- And...

[Aaand he's floundering, looking back to her in a way that clearly says can I go home now.]

[She laughs warmly, even hugging playfully. Which is her way of saying "no." If you leave, you have to leave this hug. She knows that you don't want that.]

Well, that's a good start, at least... Hey, but you should all talk to him and be friends!

[She smiles mischievously, setting her head on his shoulder]

Otherwise, I guess you'll just have to join that club, Carl. You know, that one with all those loud, weird people? [yes, she's using the neighbor's club as a threat...] Hey, why don't you just ask everyone a question? Like something basic, to start a conversation, you know? Like... I saw someone asking what people dream about the other day. Something like that!

[He doesn't want that, it's true, and for more reason than one... So he tries to settle as comfortably as possible, even if he's looking progressively less patient with everything.

And then a bit horrified because Yozora herself said that he would be one of the most suitable people in the city to join that club. Terrible.]

A question? ...Ah, how about this, then. Why don't you all tell me your favorite ways to pass the time, here and in your own world? [So he can try them out and never do this again, yes.]

[Diva nods and steps away from him, seemingly satisfied with this question! Especially since she's pretty curious too, actually.

But with another little wave, she'll just reach over and end the feed.]

((ooc; Diva has taken it upon herself to make her Chevalier make friends. Or else he faces the worst of fates, joining the Friendless Loser's Club. Charles is purple and Diva is blue! And they'll both be replying separately, heck yeah.))

[When the video feed opens, some may be surprised to find that Draco's actually in the library, considering the fuss he's been making about not wanting to do his own menial research. He's got a stack of books before him, but those aren't nearly as interesting as the sheet of paper he's got out in front of him. But he's not in the mood to share that just yet. In fact he's pushing that paper out of sight before addressing the network.]

Question for the lot of you. [He's ready to just jump straight into it, and his tone suggests that he's looking for good answers.]

Are the circumstances and occurrences of Asgard better or worse than the circumstances of your own world? And before you answer, I'll have you know I won't accept any of that one-word answer rubbish. If I'm asking a question, I want full answers. No exceptions.

[He could probably stand to be a bit nicer in asking, but since when has being nice ever been his style?]

In that same line of thought, what are you impressions of the city from when you first arrived compared to now?

I'm finding this place to be a bit...different... [And that's all he's going to say. Your turn, Travelers.]

[It's useless to be looking into an incident which occured nearly a month ago, when the damage has healed, and no similar incidents have occured as of late. She isn't a detective, nor is she trying to discover the culprit out of some sense of vigilante justice; simply put, she doesn't care about the rest of the victims. She isn't even investigating because of her own lingering humiliation and hurt. However, the assailant had the audacity to disguise himself as her master, to make a mockery of him, and that, she won't forgive.

Perhaps it's pure coincidence that Senji resembles him the most. But given the things he said, the circumstances, she isn't going to let it go so easily, not without having put her suspicions to rest.

The video feed opens to Moran, looking stern as usual, but the slight sense of impatience in her voice of indicates that this isn't an idle question.]

I would like to speak with whoever organizes hospital records. I require access to them. Specifically, a list of patients who were administered medical aid twenty-seven days ago.

[Text; Filtered to Ange Ushiromiya]

I need to speak with you in private.

[The video feed opens onto a very different looking hospital lab to the last one -- Conan's desk is cleared and he's wearing his glasses, looking neat and not at all sheepish, a perfectly well-behaved seven-year-old with an announcement to make.]

Since there's been a few posts recently about people looking for jobs, I got the Hospital Director's permission to make one about the hospital! There's a lot of volunteers working here to practice power lending and healing and of course doctors and nurses too ... but there's other jobs available as well! Ward staff, orderlies, technicians, guards, resception staff ... and in the lab, where I work!

Now, the lab recently got a new division -- forensic analysis! People with history working in the police or forensics or relevent fields are welcome to apply for positions with us! And, when the new department was formed, the labratory lost some staff too, so if you're got experience in medicine, sceience, technology or even want to learn more about the technical side of things, it's worth while looking into it!

Speaking of, I got a lot of stuff to do so I'm going to say goodbye now! Talk to you guys later!

[And true to his word, the video feed is cut -- Conan wants to make the point that he's back without inviting questions about Shinichi.]

((ooc: hospital lab/forensics info here.))

[Kate cuts the feed in with her at the Arena, having just worked out and looking physically charged. Endorphins and all that. She's sitting on a bench in one of the Arena training rooms.]

It's come to my attention that there are a lot of people here without any kind of self-defense training. Since there is no kind of police force [yet] for protection purposes, would anyone be interested in classes? I'm no expert, but I know a bit about the basics.

Just an idea, let me know if you're interested. And if anyone does have any kind of training or experience and would like to help out, contact me. I'd be all for setting something up.

[She gives a small smile before cutting the video.]

( After playing with the bracelet some, he thinks he has an idea of how this works? Or maybe not. He should have asked the maid to show him again. Oh! There we go. Have a video of the Spanish Empire. For those who know him from home, they might think he looks younger and did he get those clothes from a museum? )

Well, this isn't too bad, is it? A guide and a map at the very beginning? ¡Ay! I wish it was always this easy.

( A hand to his heart, a smile, and a wink, )

Hola, my name is Spain. The kingdom on which the sun never sets and the greatest empire in the world. ( Oh, that was a lot to say, ) But just Spain will work.

We can go home once we do our part, no? So let's work together and finish as quickly as we can. I'm a very busy person! And if I don't get home soon, my boss will find out and I'll get in trouble.

So first things first: I think red is a nice color. . .

[ text ]

Has anyone noticed anything strange when they came back from [ 'how to say it?' ] 'going gray'? They told me I still came into work, so at least I didn't get fired, but it's all [ ...he really doesn't want to admit it ] hazy. Even before my bracelet was lost.

I still remember everything important, so I don't need any help. I just wanted to know if it's like that for everyone.

It looks like the city's gotten a little more colorful

[ ...and the sentence just dangles there without any ending punctuation. Someone accidentally hit send on an incomplete draft. And skipped any choice of anonymity as a result. Great. ]

[ action - heimdall & freya ]

( the call is coming from inside the house )

[ ooc: Finally back from hiatus, and playing with Cloud's first curse! Tags will be from minimosey. ...It wasn't an easy age for him. ]

Damien, I found some paper and pens to draw a sopheria like you wanted.

[ Sophie holds up a piece of paper, showing the flower she just drew with a couple of different colored markers. It's not... very good. And if you're curious, these are the flowers that she tried to draw. ]



This is a sopheria. When sopherias bathe in starlight for several nights, they glow and become a blossomgale. I saw them become a blossomgale before and they were blown far away. It would be great if they flew all the way to Asgard!

I didn't see any amongst the flowers during the party. I wish... all those flowers didn't have to disappear afterward. [ She releases a small sigh, lowering her drawing. ]

Is there anyone from Sigyn with the... growth power? Damien and I are still looking for someone to help us grow miracle berries.

[The feed starts as video--shaky and hard to see. For a split second, you can see what seems like a young girl sitting in a wheelchair, before it switches to audio only.]

H-Hello?

[A pause which seems to drag on for eternity, before the girl starts talking again. She sounds rather nervous, and her breathing seems to be significantly shaky.]

I don't know if... there's anyone is hearing this, b-but... [DEEP BREATH.] My name is Rei. Hazama Rei... I-- I've read through everything I was given and I followed the instructions, but w-what I don't understand is... why me?

[Another pause, but at least her breathing is somewhat steadier now. However, it's very obvious from the way she's speaking that she's practically forcing herself from how scared she is. Maybe. That's the logical assumption, at least.]

I-- I'm sorry. This must be something you hear every time a new, ah... traveler, is brought here. However...! I-If someone would be so kind as to fill me in on the details I may be unaware of, I would appreciate it. Um...

...Thank you.

[And, finally, the audio is cut off. Help a poor, scared girl out?]
