So lovely to return to the city and find it in such a state. Between the idiocy of out favorite group of home-grown terrorists and the frivolity and passive aggression of our fellow guests, it is lovely to see things are still being handled with the usual aplomb.

[Fabiola's expression is terribly deadpan. She's done her best to be polite in her stay here, but at the moment, she's not feeling quite that well-mannered.]

Commander, I will be returning to my patrols tomorrow.

If anything of importance has happened, I trust someone will fill me in.

A question, if I may?

[She's not really asking permission.]

We are all here to fight, in one way or another. Is there anyone who would rather not?

...or, conversely, is there anyone who does not mind a situation like this?

[Good afternoon, Death City! Today you'll find one possibly familiar face looking pretty chipper on the feed. You'd think someone who was in a grave situation only a few days earlier would be resting still or looking a little less upbeat, but Minako looks as cheerful as ever.]

Hey guys, this is Minako here! This is probably going to seem like a pretty silly question, but you see, back home it was summer just a few months ago actually. It was the beginning of September when I ended up here, so school was already back in session. Bummer, right? Ending up here right in the swing of summer though, I can't help but wonder...

There wouldn't happen to be any beaches around here, would there? [Her eyes may or may not be gleaming just the slightest bit. She's a teenager alright you can excuse her for wanting to live out her youth!!] It's not summer without some swimming at a beach after all, and it'd be a shame to not take advantage of my extended summer vacation! Although I guess calling this a vacation is a bit of a stretch... Still, you should take advantage of what opportunities you can, right? If there's some time for a bit of fun in the sun here, I'll definitely take it!

Sorry, I guess I got a bit off track there. Long story short, if anyone knows about a beach nearby, I'd love to hear about it! Thanks in advance, guys.

[It's that time of month again, huh? All these new faces showing up all over the DEMISE network...

Except this time you don't really get to see a face, just a Venetian mask. The style and the shape looks like it belongs to a woman, but since whoever this person is is using a voice changer, there's no way to tell.

The background is pitch black, with a light shining on the person making the post, causing the metal and stones to glitter and the white mask almost seems to glwo ominously in the light.]


Consider this a courtesy warning to those who have just arrived and don't know any better: you would be better off not putting your faith in Shibusen.

As for those of you who have been here longer...how did it feel to lose your homes to an attack? How does it feel knowing that your very homes are not safe?

You who sit around and do nothing but complain as our homes and livelihoods are destroyed, you now know how it feels to be us.

We were promised an end to this war and instead what we get is you. So we will be taking the fate of our city into our own hands.

[There is no expression to be seen, but the poster leans in threateningly.]

We are Erinyes, we are the avengers and your persecuters. We are everywhere.

((OOC: Characters who have been paying attention to the news and to the network might remember that "Erinyes" is the name of the anti-Shibusen group who incited riots recently. They also kidnapped some Guests and took their communicators...and now you know why!))

Good morning, I hope recovery efforts are going reasonably well by this point. For those recently brought in by BREW, I'm sorry your first few days here were chaotic and stressful.

This month has been plagued by outbreaks of riots, and while the scale of them has decreased and most of the citizens in general don't seem to be against us, there appears to be an extremist group working to make us feel as unwelcome as possible in this city. You could say we're fighting two wars right now. We don't possess a lot of information about that group at the moment, but with those being detained, we're hoping to find out.

In the meantime, please be careful when moving through the streets. Members of the Watch patrol each district diligently, but we're somewhat short-handed at the moment. Still, if anyone finds themselves in need of assistance, we'll do our best to provide that aid.

[ There's a bright, grinning face on the network -- cheerful and shounen as ever. ]

Yo! How's everyone holdin' up? I tried to eat as much of the fire as I could around the city, but those guys were workin' pretty quick. Still, seems like BREW timed it out just right this time and even welcomed me with a good feast.

[ He shifts so he's sitting near his broken window, the wind just wafting right in his room. ]

I don't know how many people're still around from when I was, but I didn't forget. I wouldn't forget.

[ Natsu's expression becomes grim. ]

Sorry. So much time has passed, both here and back home -- and I wasn't around to help out with any of it. I can't even promise I'll be around this time since BREW can't seem to make up its goddamn mind. But what I can promise, what I will promise is that while I'm here -- I'll do everything I can to help Shibusen. That's a guarantee from Fairy Tail's Salamander.

[ This is all very touching. It's just a shame the moment is ruined as a bird just flies right into his room and smacks right into his head. ]

OI. What's the big idea?! [ It scatters in a flourish of feathers, and Natsu growls. ] Anyone know how to fix a window?

I hope you're all right.

[Aqua had actually meant to filter this message to only one person. It said a lot about how frazzled she was that she didn't wait for it to confirm that the filter had worked before she set it off to a side and began her post.

She gave the communicator a wan smile, it was her way of saying that she's okay without out-right saying it (because it would be a lie in a lot of ways). Using video instead of voice was another way to do it. She wasn't injured, so obviously (obviously) she must be fine.

She turned back to what she was doing, which was digging through a pile of charred and broken furniture as the communicator continued to record her in profile.]


Lassie is fine. So is Elizabeth. They had a bit of a scare but they're all right besides that. I wanted to wait until my lease ran out before moving out, but I guess now is as good a time as any to do it. If the timing is bad, I-- [Suddenly her voice cuts off and she stares at something in the pile. All of a sudden she moves to brush away some more debris and pull out a badly charred box. Up until now, Aqua had been perfectly composed but there is a noticeable shake in her hand now as she opens the box. She stares for a moment before she hunches over, clutching the box to her chest tightly. When she speaks again, her voice is raw with relief; completely different from the carefully neutral tones from before.]

This is Raiden speaking.

There's been a change and I'm now working with the Watch. Someone might ask me why I'm doing this.

I just think that by staying with the Watch things will take a turn for the better. Wanting to make the city a safer place is a cause that's worth fighting for. There's a saying that I'm fond of.

"One sword keeps another in it's sheath."

Sometimes by taking one life you can save another. Fighting to protect is a part of who I am. You can call me foolish all you like, but that isn't going to change the way I see things. I want to believe that my sword is a tool of justice. Not used in anger or not used in vengeance. [N'mani wouldn't want him to fight out of revenge anyways. So that's exactly what he's going to do.]

This is the reason why I fight.

In any case, I've been assigned to the Financial and Service district. I've familiarized myself with those districts and found a suitable patrol route. There have been no problems so far. Not much to report on considering that I've only been on sight for a day at most.

There's something else too.

I'd like to have a chance to talk with those who are familiar with cyborg or advanced robot technology. Being a cyborg myself, I've found it difficult to monitor the changes made to my bodily functions. What I'm looking for is someone who's familiar in this field of work and can track any changes made to my cyborg frame. I'd be grateful for anyone's assistance regarding the matter.

Raiden out.

Good day,

Some of you may know me as the Watch's liaison to the Detective Agency. Or if you have been here much longer, you may also know me as the former zone leader for the Shopping District and the Red Light District. I'd like to take this opportunity to reintroduce myself.

I am Genesis Rhapsodos, and I now work as both the Watch liaison to the Agency as well as the Zone Leader for one of the Outer Residential Quarters.

My zone covers where many of you might already be residing: Death City Heights, the Creeping Crypts, and the Reaper Residences. If you require any assistance in the area, feel free to contact me.

Greetings everyone. I know the past couple of days have been harrowing on many, and I hope the victims and those who participated in the rescue effort has had a chance to recuperate. I also would like to thank and commend those who helped.

However, although this was a success on our part, I'd like to inform and remind everyone that the situation around the city is still tense. Unfortunately, while we did apprehend all the kidnappers that were there, the masterminds behind the operation are still at large. Rest assured that those currently confined will be properly and thoroughly investigated, but you still need to remain vigilant for further suspicious activity.

In addition, the tunnels that were used in the kidnapping operation are being cleared out. Once all traps have been cleared and preliminary investigation has been done, everyone will have a chance to conduct their own searches and investigation as well. The preliminary investigation is only so there is little risk of important evidence being tainted or loss once the tunnels open.

And finally, we are still trying to find the lost possessions. If you have yet to receive your replacement communicator, please stop by Shibusen to acquire a new one.

I was wondering if there happens to be anyone here that has experience with constructing or repairing advanced machinery. Specifically robots.

I am not asking because I need any repairs done to me now. It was brought to my attention some time ago when I was speaking to a human Medic that it would be a smart idea to find someone to work on me, should I sustain any minor to serious damage in future battles.

I am aware that it may be necessary to study me as I am now to understand the way that I function. I have no problem with that as long as my partner is allowed to be there.

Bumblebee seems to have been returned. I will of course, wait until I am certain he will not be returning, however...

[However, considering that's the third of her friends in the last few weeks, she's not exactly counting on it.]

Regardless, I will be doing the rounds for my patrol if anyone needs me, and to all members of the Watch, I will gladly go where my assistance is needed when I am not on patrol.

[And god help anyone, Guest or otherwise, who gets up to anything while she's out and about today.]

[Once again, the late afternoon finds Fabiola perched on a rooftop, sun setting somewhere off to her side. She shifts slightly, tucking her legs up Indian-style, and waves cheerfully.]

I have discovered that 'paintball' is a fairly popular game in certain places- and here I thought Reborn was simply quite creative in his methods of, ah, 'encouragement'. Regardless, I have been wondering- would anyone care to participate in a game, if one was arranged? It would, of course, take some time, but...

[She tips a little to one side as a bird passes a little too close for comfort, completely nonplussed by how high she is or how precarious her perch is.]

I would be willing to make arrangements, if enough people were interested. What does everyone think?

Come and try them all, de arimasu! [That's why it's split into days, anyway. To trick convince you all to come. Every single day.]

Of course, we're very willing to accept your communicators in place of money, de arimasu. Unlike everywhere else, de arimasu.

If you're new, please let the server know and we'll even include a free drink, de arimasu! [Courtesy of Shibusen so not technically free for everyone involved, but hey.]

Remember, just your communicator as proof of payment is good enough for us, de arimasu.

I will start things off.

Where I am from, I am a soldier. I became one after war broke out upon my home planet. The war has been going on for over a millennia, and I fear that it won't be ending any time soon. But before the war and becoming a soldier, I was a guardian to one of my people's most sacred relic along with another Bot.
