[When the feed turns out, Johnny's outside in an alley, on break from his job at the restaurant in Thor district. He looks cranky as usual.]

Hey, has anyone seen Popura today? She totally blew off her shift at the restaurant tonight. Now I'm workin' her tables on top of mine. Ain't like her to call out without warning...

While we're at it, has anyone found Equius yet? Hey, person I was textin' the other day... Nepeta? Did ya find him?

Anyway... If anyone sees her, tell her to get her ass into work already.

[Action: Anyone who stops by tonight for food will be treated to their table being waited on by one extra-miserable and harried half-demon to take your order. He's still sporting some healing wounds from his fight with faeries; namely, bandaged hands from ice burns he he got from hitting them.]

Whatcha want.

[Usually even he can force politeness to a small degree, but now he's just exhausted.]

[The feed begins with a view of young man grinning like an idiot.]

Ah, so if this place gives everyone supernatural abilities, isn't there a question we must be asking ourselves?

How?

I mean, we can't all be biologically suited for that kind of thing already, right? We've probably been modified in some way...!

But what way? That and my beloved Celty are what I sit here daydreaming about....

[A pause.]

So I was thinking...if I examined a few of you....maybe I could find out! Any volunteers? 

Don't like announcing on this thing too much, but figured it's a better place than any.

Anyone who's been visiting Heimdall House for the clinic? It'll be temporarily closed for the move. It should be back in business in a week in the new location at [Insert an area in Heimdall district here.] Figured it'll be a lot easier for patients to feel comfortable from the other districts if it ain't in this place.

To all the newcomers, the name's Zen, and I run a clinic called Yakuzen Hall for anyone interested. It'll also double as pharmacy from now on in case you need some medicine for colds, stomachaches, and other stuff you might have issues with. You can ask me here for details too if you want.

Damn, that frog's better at this than I am. Can't believe I'm saying that...

[There's a pause and a short curse as he suddenly remembers something. Ah, right, he'll need those now right?]

I'm looking for guys to work for me too. Some guy to replace my secretary, cleaning staff and people who know a thing or two about medicine would be pretty good right now. [A beat.] Ah damn, right, the flyers... Ah, whatever. You can catch me in Heimdall if you're interested.

Oh right--- oi, Haru. Get over here. I need to talk to you.

[And with that, the feed ends. People in the house may find Zen getting stuff boxed up for moving to his new clinic. Later on, people may find Zen at the Yakuzen Hall, assuming he's found people to help him move the stuff, trying to get everything organized. Yeesh, where was his assistant when he needs him?]

[OOC: Anyone who wants to apply can reply here for any of the positions. Also, getting off hiatus now. Tags are gonna be slow as hell because I'm still trying to catch up to all my backtags, but I'll get to them as soon as I can.]

[One very frazzled Rikku appears on screen with a list. When she speaks, she's a little hoarse]

Date auction is over, guys, and it was insane. Here's the list of who won who!

[She switches to TEXT for a second]

( It's a long one )

[And VIDEO]

Unfortunately, name-stealer Riku, Travis Touchdown, Marquise Spinneret Mindfang, Azuka Langley Soyru, Ruby-chan, Miki Hoshii, and Minatsuki Takumi did not get anyone to bid for them. I also lost the sheet that told me how much each person went for, but a lot of 'em went for one or two chocolates.

[She glances down at the paper real quick]

Oh, and nobody bid on Tidus, but that's fine. He's a dork anyway. [Giggle]

That's all, folks! Enjoy your dates!

[She coughs. Damn all this talking]

I need some tea...

[He's mad. He's so mad.]

Oi! Oi oi! If you see a little shit named Minatsuki Takami don't talk to her, and don't listen to the shit she's been spreadin' about me!

She's tellin' people I'm an old, friendless loser and a........ virgin. [by the way he mumbles that it's almost obvious but--] She's just a big liar, alright?!

[the video feed turns on with gilbert looking at the screen with a rather serious look on his face.]

I— [he stops however, his expression going blank as he stares up past the hologram of the bracelet and drops his hand. The camera shifts and reveals what has caught gilbert's attention. it's the cupcake making area that's been placed in every kitchen. he approaches, picking up the note and reading it and he's just staring dumbstruck before putting it down and looking away, flustered. really? REALLY? he'd turned the video feed on to say something else to the community, but now with this surprise in the kitchen all you're going to get out of him is:]

I am not making cupcakes.

[maybe he's talking to himself, maybe not, it's hard to tell because he happens to look down and remembers he had been intending to ask about something on the network and left the feed running.] 'Tch... [and he turns it off.]

[after he's found a spot to settle in away from that mess, he'll turn the feed on the bracelet back on, still grumpy, particularly for catching that reaction publicly.]

What I don't understand is the connection we all have and why we have been chosen instead of others. Is there some common link we all have that we're unaware of? What do you think, Asgard?

[so he'll be anywhere in Heimdall but the kitchen, but feel free to find him and try and get him in there if for no other reason to make him suffer participate with the rest of you like a good sport. (ooc: he's actually a good cook so deep down in his heart he'd want to help heimdall win...just needs a little pushing.) ...OR FEEL FREE TO HIDE WITH HIM IF CUPCAKES AREN'T YOUR THING.]

[The young man is smiling quite widely, as if not the slightest bit troubled by anything at all. In fact, just looking at him, one would think that all is right in his world.]

This is certainly an interesting place, isn’t it? So far I’ve found the hospitality quite suitable, and while the decor could use a little work-

[And here he reaches out a hand, touches a gray-ish banner, turning his crisp white sleeve against it as if to compare.]

I suppose I could make myself at home. There are however, a couple of things that I’m afraid I absolutely can’t do without.

[And now, finally, there’s a slight waver to the confident tone.]

Gil? Alice? If you’re out there, you need to come find me. I’m a little lonely, and surely you wouldn’t want me to get it any trouble, would you?
