[Hello, Asgard. Today, someone's bracelet's turned on to video. From its angle, it seems to be sitting on top of a desk inside of somebody's room. Who's? Well, wonder no longer as soon enough the owner of said bracelet steps into view, dressed in a cute pink outfit that looks more like a costume than a casual dress.]

Yoohoo! It's Risette, at your service! [Rise exclaims after giving a small twirl and wink to the camera. The skirt and ribbons sway and bunch around her legs like it was made for her.] At least that's what I would've said in the past. Hehe.

[She smiles and puts on her bracelet now, changing the point of view.]

I just got this outfit the other day. It really surprised me to see it again. You know what it is? It's my old idol outfit from before my hiatus. [Rise softens her expression, looking somewhat nostalgic.] I never thought I'd be wearing it again. It sure brings back memories, you know?

So, I was thinking. We really need to bring the color back to this city, right? What better way than some kind of concert or performance that'll reach lots of people at once! I know there's a ton of performers and other talented people out here in Asgard, so it can't hurt to try. Right?

Then maybe things like the other day won't have to happen again.

I'd definitely need more hands if I ever ran a concert on my own. Usually that was always taken care of by the management, so I don't really have much experience except how to put on a good show, I guess.

It's okay to want to see your friends, even if it's here. It might be dangerous, but so far it's only been every now and then, right? Otherwise it's fairly safe in Asgard. [fairly, barring lions i guess.]

Actually when I think about it, we technically got a warning this round, didn't we? I wonder who that old man really was.

Oh, yeah... I didn't even think about how much work must go into putting on a concert. There's lights and choreography and costumes and all that...

But there's a war coming right? [A frown.] My friends have already had enough trouble. I don't want them having to fight anymore. Even if it would be... a comfort, I guess, to have someone who understood everything.

Yeah, it's tons of work that I wouldn't be able to do alone. [nervous laugh. so why did she propose such a thing again...??]

There's still nothing wrong with wanting your friends here, I think. I'm always glad my friends have been here to support me. It's that extra push that can really help, you know?

[She catches that laugh and smiles comfortingly.] I'll bet people will want to help. It's only fair to lend a hand if someone's doing something nice for you. I'll help out as much as I can, if you want.

[There's a bit of sadness in her expression as she nods, though.] I've made do as best as I can without anyone here. I've got a journal where I write letters to my mom, and now I have a picture of her, so it's gotten a bit easier.

That would be awesome, Nakama-chan. I'd love that.

It seems like quite a few people got things they cherish from home. I wonder what we did that didn't, well, get us stabbed instead?

Apparently it was all about the old man who appeared a few days ago. If you listened to him, you got a present, and if not, you got stabbed. It was a trick by the gods to make sure we would listen and pay attention to them.

[She says this darkly, her eyes leaving the screen for a moment. She still feels pretty terrible about the whole thing.]

So that's what it was about... But who was the old man in the first place? Was it a God himself?

I think... I think they can create people, for a brief period of time. I know at least two people said that the ones who stabbed them weren't even real - they were imaginary people. So they couldn't have been brought here, even briefly, to do the stabbing.

I can't imagine they just offered them a quick trip to stab their friends either. That's scary stuff... Y'know, I wonder if we really know all that these gods are capable of.

I don't think we have any idea. [Grimly.] But I don't know what we did to be punished like that in the first place, so who's to say what'll come next? It is scary.
