[The feed clicks on to a little girl with blonde hair and ribbons... holding a hammer? Not even a beat passes before the hammer is brought down on the bracelet. The girl frowns.]

It doesn't break. Dumb bracelet.

[She stares at it a moment longer before smacking it with the hammer several more times. Finally seemingly giving up with a huff, she tosses the hammer away.]

Send me back home already. I wanna be with Hibiki not whatever this place was called again. [Pause] Maybe if I get a blaster gun.

[Her eyes widen slightly as she looks at it closer.]

Is it doing something?

[Hello, Asgard! Say hello to this big, buff dude currently yelling over the network.]

What the hell is this all about?!

[It's really for a good reason, though. After five years separated from your daughter, and finally getting her back, you'd be pretty upset too! It's really not a surprise in the least that Nier is currently yelling, loudly. He's not really too happy with all that's happening. He didn't have any pretty words for the maid that greeted him either, and his yelling just continued onto here once he got his bracelet.]

I don't care about "bringing life to this world" or whatever they were going on about, dammit! I just want my daughter back! Do you hear me?! Hey!

[Yeah. It's pretty easy to catch on how upset he is.]

Dammit... dammit all. I finally had her back after all these years, and right when I was about to take her back home, where she belonged... the home she hasn't seen all this time...

[He punches a wall near by, which... probably isn't the best for it. Strength is a hell of a power!]

Why now?! Are the gods really that cruel, to deny me that? Answer me, dammit!

[Yeahhhh... Probably should get on that.]

Yonah...

[ So, do you remember Raven, Asgard? Unfortunately, she doesn't remember any of you. Raven sits tall, back straight, looking directly at the video feed ]

I don't like this place already. Apparently they brought us here so that we could bring color to their world? I feel like someone's trying to make fun of me.

[ She looks less than impressed. She assumes that it's clear as to why she feels like she's being made fun of, and needs no explanation. Bright yellow eyes, red hair and most importantly, there's her blue skin and scales ( both of which are on full display with her sitting there, completely naked ) ]

I'm proud of who I am [ finally ] and I'm not going to let someone treat me like this.

[ She huffs a little and rolls her eyes, but she's calming down regardless ]

So this place is called Asgard and they replace whatever we could do at home with whatever they want to when they bring us here. They do that, and still expect us to help them. I think I would rather find a way back home, where I know what I'm supposed to be doing, and where I know people respect me.

[ Today Quinn's reading, lounging on her bed with one of the books that she picked up at the Traveller's Festival (it's not bad, Castle). But with the posts about jobs, and even the Festival, Quinn's curious. There are people that can do things, obviously, but are they doing now what they did? And even why they're doing things ]

So, there are people with jobs here, that's a given. I know one day I'll end up wanting to look for something. [ Spoiler: she wouldn't mind doing that now but she's not sure if it'd be too much ]

But what do you do? Or why? I get being bored, and I get just wanting to do something to fill the day, but I doubt that a lot of things here are the same. [ Unless you're a doctor, and she gets why they'd still do that. And she's glad that they're there ]

So, what did you used to do before Asgard? And is that even here?

[ Aka: Quinn doesn't have enough things to fill her day so she's asking everyone who does. It only takes a minute ]

[She is sitting outside, on a swing, looking contemplative.]

Is there a veterinary clinic in the city?

[She has a kitty that needs to be fixed. Or else there will be a lot of little kitties running around.

Team Free Will does not need a lot of kitties. 8|]

[ Good afternoon, Asgard. You'll see a boy on your bracelet screen, wearing a gracious blue school uniform, staring intensely at the screen. When he notices how he's gazing at it, he'll blush and look away briefly.

Sad thoughts have been surfacing in his mind more frequently; he had few friends and Anri was nowhere to be found. All in all, he was burdened with absolutely nothing, and suffered because of that. The excitement in Asgard was dwindling quick, and he realizes it's his own fault -- not getting out much and relying on disappearing others could just be it. ]

I don't know if any of you would care to hear what I have to say, so you can skip this if you'd like. [ A pause as he breathes in and exhales, continuing. ] I've been contemplating my time here, and in the end I've come up with a single question as my conclusion: why am I here?

Newcomers and old travellers alike -- instead of asking everyone around you that one question, I'd like you to ask yourself it, instead. Why are you here? What makes you special? [ A beat. ] I understand the irony of this network broadcast can be a bit amusing, but trust me, motivations have reason. I'm sorry if this has been asked before.

[ Somehow, he doesn't regret posting this un-anon. ]

Seeing as I'm here now... A lot seems to be going on. But first the only thing that wasn't explained to me-

WHERE ARE MY PANTS!?!

[Yes Germany arrived without his pants. Thankfully the video is chest up.]
