Hey, Gamzee.

Ya busy? Let's have fun~ [that crazy smile on his lips isn't worrisome or anything like that, nope]


[But there is also some other thing Ryoki wishes to ask]


Ah, yeah, by the way, anyone here understands a thing about motors? I got some liners and I wanna add a motor to it.

[Ryoki moves to grab these, to show them to the camera. Where he got them, don't ask.] The original thing had a motor on the side, so it's gotta be small motors, I guess? I dunno, I don't understand a thing about that kind of thing.

A two-stroke engine that allowed us to easily go over 40 km/h. If we stepped hard enough the engine woud start up, and the speed depended on how hard the wheel was pressed to the ground.

... think Haru has his, ya can use that as an example or something.

[And up pops Shinra, with his pleasant little smile as he sits in his pleasant little room. There's just something awkward about this happy, young doctor, but even so, it doesn't stop him from rambling.]

Hello, Death City! My name is Shinra Kishitani, but everyone can call me Shinra. I guess I'm adding to the recent wave of individuals who are new to the city. I hope everyone's doing well today.

I'm glad I paid attention to the local gossip about the Communal! Apparently a lot of problems had happened in regards to the little Valentine's day presents left around. I guess I was lucky - mine tasted very... fishy. It was actually rather awkward. [He chuckles softly.] Whoever left them, thank you for the gift!

As I've been here a few days, I think I've gotten a hang of the layout of the city. It's properly sunk in that there doesn't seem to be any easy method of escape - but is there a way to at least contact people from our original homes? There's a young lady who's probably beside herself with worry at my lengthy absence... And we had such a beautiful date planned, too! [He looks up, almost as if blinking away tears. Pardon him, he is having an emotion right now. ...and then it subsides rather quickly because he knows he's being melodramatic.] Well. If not, she's a strong soul. I'll just have to buy her something special whenever I'm permitted to leave... She'll be so mad at me.

I digress. I was also wondering about how to procure a job, so I'm not completely idling my time here. I'm not quite sure how much schooling I'd truly wish to take - after all, I think I learn best hands-on, and my skills lie more in doctoring - any sort - than fighting. There's a hospital of some sort here, isn't there? Are they hiring? Or is it strictly volunteer staff?

[He sighs softly, a hand reaching up to scratch the back of his head.] I must sound ridiculously new with my large set of questions. I'm sorry! I really am just this new, though.

[This one is quick and businesslike, and Kasuka sounds and looks as flawless and flat as ever.]

I'm getting tired of sitting still and doing very little. Right now, it seems I'm only living off of my brother's graces.

I don't know if I'm capable of resonating with anyone, but if someone would like to try, please contact me. I'm a weapon... I've only tried to transform a few times, but it seems my form is some sort of camera.

Aside from that, what do you usually do to pass the time? I'm not used to having so much empty space in my schedule.

Thank you.

[Misa turns on the communicator and wastes no time before giving a bright smile, waving cheerfully.]

Hello everyone! I’m Amane Misa, it’s nice to meet everyone here. Or at least, it will be when I do.

[After thinking a moment and tapping her chin, she turns back to the communicator.]

I don’t really know how to fight at all... but back in our world, I’m an actress so if anyone needs an entertainer, think of me! And I’m only talking about classy stuff, okay? I’m a top-idol in Japan, after all!

And I’d like to help Shibusen. They’ve been helpful since bringing us here, so whatever I can do to help, I will! They reunited me with my fiancé, Light, after all so I’m very grateful! [Whoops, was she supposed to not mention Light?]

I look forward to getting to know you all! [She gives another small wave before turning off the communicator.]

[G'kar is sporting a hefty bandage over his shoulder, and is looking both in pain and ridiculously irritated by this whole affair.]

I simply cannot believe how primitive this planet's medical technology is. You must have a better solution to a simple laceration than wrapping it in cloth. I haven't seen care this sparse since I was serving in the trenches of revolutionary warfare!

Of course, this could all have been avoided if a certain someone hadn't seen fit to jam a kitchen knife through my shoulder. But I suppose even that courtesy is too much to ask of a Centauri!

CITIZENS OF DEATH CITY!!

And I guess you other guys, too! Today is your lucky day, kesese! You see, I'm in a chipper mood even though I dropped my breakfast on my amazingly shiny shoes. If you praise me, I'll paint a portrait of you! My talent is pretty amazing . . .

. . .

The citizen I live with is as cute as a little bird.

. . .

My citizens are like rabbits that have a soft tummy.

. . .

By the way, I'm trying to prolong this video so you all can get more time with my beautiful face.

APPRECIATE ME!!

I thought... I thought perhaps... Seimei simply stepped out. That he had gone to the grocery store or some other place and would return soon.

But, I don't think that's the case.

It seems as though he has returned home.

Well, that is for the best, isn't it?

Welcome those that are new to this city. Perhaps, you all will be able to return home before this war is over, as well.

[Well, her bruises have healed up nicely leaving her feeling more up to making an announcement to the network. Even though she knows the population of Death City is going strong, it feels like she's lost a lot of people; only a handful of the people she considered close to her remain.

But she's gotten most of the paperwork out of the way for going about cleaning up and rebuilding the place so it's time to say hello and let everyone know she's still alive.
]

The gallery took some heavy hits during all of this, so it'll be closed for a little bit while all the repairs are done.

I need something to do with my time though, would anyone be willing to learn photography? I wouldn't mind teaching a few people one-on-one, or maybe even a class if I get enough interest. [A small smile. It'll give her something to do and she really enjoys being busy. More work means less time to think on things that depress her.

The downside is it means less time thinking on things she probably should be spending time on and coming to terms with
]

On that note, I'm in need of an assistant for the gallery since... Well, since Ritsuka went home. [A fleeting, pained look, before the smile is back] I'm not asking for much; someone who's good at research, organized, dependable, willing to learn--that sort of thing. An interest in photography is a plus, but not really necessary.

A day guard and a night guard would also be helpful... [Maybe she should just run an ad in a newspaper.

Rei pauses to think a moment
] Ah, I think that's all I need to say. [Another pause. She feels like she should say something inspirational here, something to motivate people or help cheer them up, but she can't think of anything]

On a more somber note, I'm available if anyone needs someone to talk to. I'm not a professional or anything, but talking... It helps, sometimes. I might not be able to do much, but I'm good at listening.

[A sad smile and she turns the communicator off]

I was hesitant about committing to taking part in this war until I had all the facts in front of me, but the recent attacks on civilian targets have certainly dispelled any doubt in my mind. I'm ready to do whatever is needed to shut these Witches down.

I'm told that I'll need a partner, and I must admit that I haven't been looking very hard. Apparently I'm a meister, meaning I'll need a weapon. If there's anyone available and interested, I would appreciate a response.

Thank you for your time, and I look forward to working with all of you.

[This video post doesn't start the same as others. Instead of someone appearing on camera, a roughly drawn animation begins playing - a troop of small marshmallows march across the screen, followed by a small cartoon character in a jester's outfit. He claps his hands and the marshmallows vanish in a puff of pink smoke, then waves at the camera, speaking in a squeaky, mechanical voice]

Hello, Death City! My name is Byakuran! I've heard I need a weapon - if you're interesting you should volunteer. No boring wanna-be's, please!

[And then the screen fizzes for a moment before an actual human appears on screen, grinning expectantly.]

I'll be waiting~ ♪

[Filtered away from Shizuo;]

[There's a slight sound of rain against the window pane when Kasuka turns the video on. He's blank as always, sitting in the edge of his bed and looking directly into the feed.]

How do you celebrate birthdays, where you come from?

I need to get a present for someone, but I'm not sure what it should be. It's for a man in his mid-twenties...

Ah, for those of you who know Heiwajima Shizuo, it's his birthday tomorrow. Just in case someone wanted to know.

[VOICE. a slight cough; a few seconds of silence; and when he speaks russia's tone is calm and vaguely irritated, but one can make out a smile in that somewhat friendly and polite voice.]

Good day. Russia was here before, though that seems like .... a dream now. How odd! And yet, all the better if it were.

If, ah, certain nations and comrades can make contact with Russia, that would be much appreciated.

[a slight pause; one must have some purpose in these things, otherwise why bother opening the message to the public at all.]

Perhaps Death City can indulge Russia in a game. No need to worry about gains and losses and such, I think the city has a lot of that already! [ha ha ha.] It is a simple game, see. You give me three things about yourself, and I guess which one is right, and if I am right, I get to have your name. If I am wrong, I suppose you can ask me something in return, and I will reply honestly, for the duration of that one particular question, of course. Do choose wisely.

[there is a vague kolkolkolkolkol at the background.]

Of course, you don't have to participate, if you don't want to. Russia is only meaning to alleviate boredom and such things. I'm not the only one who came here, after all, but it is all very annoying and boring to not know everything and everyone. Being alone is so much trouble.


ooc; as the post suggests, it's a two truths and a lie post! russia will ask your character first if they're playing the game or not, and if they choose not to, they can just have a normal conversation with russia without russia sounding out the people in death city so far. have fun~.

OH AND RUSSIA IS REPLYING IN VOICE FOR THIS POST TO EVERYONE

[good afternoon Death City. hope you aren't tired of new arrivals yet because here's another one.

it's hard to tell where exactly this particular old bespectacled man is recording from because most of the screen is taken up by the biggest hat in the cosmos. don't be intimidated, though! he seems friendly enough, though his attention constantly flickers from his unseen audience to a point just beyond them -- as if he's almost more interested in the communicator itself than who's behind it. the quiet muttering doesn't help.]
A mirror, eh? Curious choice...

[right, he's supposed to be talking to people. whoops! he blinks, starts, and smiles apologetically, refocusing.] Ah-- greetings. My name is Qilby, and I am an Eliatrope.

[an awkward, expectant pause as if he's hoping that by some stretch the term should be familiar to someone out there. or maybe he's just hesitant to address his next point.] ...I don't suppose I'm the only one that finds it rather tragic that by bringing us here and giving us these new abilities, they've stripped us of our powers that arguably could have been more useful to help end this conflict. And now we must figure out how to harness an entirely new set of skills... Well. They say you can't teach an old boowolf new tricks, and I doubt I'm an exception. [and his smile at his own "joke" implies that he is a very old boowolf indeed.]

That aside, I'm more than willing to try and learn. Tell me, how have people's experiences been? I'm afraid I haven't had to fight a war in a long time.

[and at that, he looks very tired.] A very, very long time.

[So guess who has had sometime to look over you Death City, to watch you move and breathe and feast upon each other like ravenous dogs. Yes, he declared his judgement on the city from the get go but he was willing to hold out on passing judgement and speaking to the plethera of mongrels before he could weigh his facts correctly. There's still some things about the city that he doesn't like, nor will ever like considering that he is who he is and a man of his caliber does have standards afterall. But that doesn't answer the question that he's been wondering, the question that he has yet to ask.]

This place, it has yet to change. Such a barren wasteland, with such intrigue yet little potential.  Funny how it should mirror the state of the world we originate. 

Tell me, lowlifes, what is it that you fight for? What is it that drives you? A man in my position is curious as to wants of those of the lower class. And I am curious enough to listen.

The more entertaining and worth while the objective the better.

--way you coulda made that shot!

[From its position partway out of a jacket pocket, the communicator catches a sideways view of Handmaid, expression unimpressed as ever, staring up at an angry-looking man staring between her and a pool table. She makes a point to twirl her cue stick again and raises an eyebrow.]

But I did, so- my money?

[All she gets in return is a sneer.]

Like hell! Rack 'em agai-!

[CRACK!

Down he goes, and she's already reaching for the money on the edge of the table and then her jacket before he starts pushing himself again, stepping on his shoulder and smashing him back into the ground on her way out.

Bitchplease- you don't ever mess with her money. Peace out, losers!!!]
