soul_campaign | [ v i d e o ] ☠ feb 17 ☠ early afternoon

Greetings everyone. Several have been asking about BREW and it has been decided to allow all of the guests an opportunity to see and approach the Demon Tool.

[he's personally not so keen about it since past events, but it was better this way. it would allay some fears and give opportunity for others to ask questions.]

It will occur tomorrow afternoon at two o'clock in the Shibusen gymnasium and will be open until four. After that, I will be returning it to its proper and secured place. The next time it will be available has not been determined and I make no guarantees that another viewing will happen. Therefore, if you are curious then this will be your only chance.

[and anyone can tell by his tone and expression that he is dead serious about this.]

I will be repeating this tomorrow, but there are a few things I'd like to tell everyone to keep in mind. You will be able to approach and touch it, but I highly advise that no one try to attack or damage it. Not only will you do nothing to BREW, but you can gravely injure yourself or your Weapon.

Security will be in place and I will also be personally overseeing and standing by BREW. Needless to say, no one should try to steal it, but if anyone tries—[eyes narrow.]—I will not hesitate to shoot you down myself.

[and for those who saw the previous stunt with Soul and Black☆Star just the other day, they should know he is dead serious.

and then he lightens up a little.]

There will be ample opportunity to ask questions tomorrow, but if there is something you'd like to know, you are welcome to ask them now.

[FILTER TO: Roy, Riza, Kotetsu, Barnaby, and Mello]

I believe you all were chosen to help with the security, correct? I just wanted to give you my thanks and if you have any questions about tomorrow you are more than welcome to ask.

[FILTER TO: NPC CREW]

I just wanted to reaffirm who will be there tomorrow. After what happened back in November, I'd rather not have a repeat.

...It is strange, isn't it?

Perhaps it also depends on the strength of the wish...

[small nods as he listens.]

The resonance between two partners depends on how effectively they can work together and how stable the relationship is. A lot of what you have experience in can actually help with that.

As for BREW, it's a small cube about like this. [and motions with his hands.]

[[nods slightly]] That could be it, un. Things weren't as bad as this before, right? Or there could also be some other condition to it.... something that changed before it activated maybe.

Must have missed it. I'll go and see what he has to say.

It's possible...but again it's hard to say.

Too many things that could have affected it?

Yes, and that there's much we do not know about BREW.

I'm sure you'll find it interesting.

[hum.]

Let me know what you think.

Are there people already studying it?

Of course.

[Another slight smile, and he's signing off.]

[The explanation makes Kotetsu slightly giddy as well as... not so giddy, because not only has he been confident that his relationship with Barnaby could be strong enough for a resonance to be no problem but also... because Barnaby isn't exactly at the same point as him. Damn differing timelines.]

O-oh yeah, I remember that! Must be why things have been just fine for us, haha...

[The awkward laugh trails off as Kotetsu watches the movement of his hands, and he just stares. Small cube... that small... he could even hold that in his hands.]

...really? It's that small? No like, giant chamber, or creepy hole in the ground, or even a bigger box? Just a cube--?

If they can't, then we haven't been doing our job.

[She shakes her head.]

We may arrive a bit early, just to see the set-up. I'm sure we'll manage just find, though.

That's perfectly fine. I'll be with BREW so I won't be there until we bring it up, but if you have any problems, do not hesitate to contact me. I doubt there will be any, but just in case.

No. Just a cube.

There are and we have researchers working on it as well. However I'm also open to those who may have different experience as it may provide a fresher look into it.

Aaa-- I have a little experience with magical Items back in my world -- they were something I was trying to research myself. I don't know if that experience would be any use, but...

[[There's a touch of a hopeful tone there. BREW is far too like the Sennen Items for him not to be insanely curious about it.]]

That's almost kinda... what's the word? Anticlimactic. Isn't it?

Magical items? Like what?

[you have piqued his curiosity!]

In some respects, I suppose it would be. Hard to imagine that such a small device could have so much power.

They're called the Sennen-- or Millennium-- Items, the only source of magic back in my world. There isn't much known about them; that they were made in Egypt during the time of the Pharaohs and all knowledge of them was lost along with the name of the Pharaoh who's associated with them. There's seven of them, each with their own shape and special abilities, and if you bring all seven of them together in the tablet they were formed in, the door to the Underworld will open and grant the person who's opened it great power.

[[a pause before his enthusiasm melts into a sheepish grin]] Or at least that's what I think should happen, it's been pretty hard to tell what's true and what's just wishful thinking, really! [[that and he's not... entirely sure how he knows some of this. But he's pretty sure he heard someone talking about it...]]

Guess it at least makes it easy enough to hide? I mean, unless you know what you're looking for.

I'll be sure to do that.

For the moment, I should get back to work, though.

That's quite fascinating, really.

[seven of those...how many Demon Tools were there? it would be uncanny if it were seven (also a little annoying. eight is better, dammit.)]

But it's still a mystery as to what they really do, I take it.

In some ways, yes. It's also the least suspicious.

[nods.]

It was a pleasure to meet you, Miss Hawkeye.
