May. 29th, 2014 01:28 amwant_the_world[Mello hardly ever uses video, but he's rather proud that he came out of a battle with a Witch with only minor injuries to show for it: the bandages on both his forearms are the extent of the damage.
Near was slightly more worse for the wear, but he is the one who had to consume a Witch soul. Now he's awake and on the mend, and though Mello hasn't yet left his clinic bedside (the IV stand and bed railing, but not Near, are clearly visible behind Mello), there are public service announcements to be got out of the way.]
Yesterday, my partner and I defeated the Witch Isabella, and became the newest Death Scythe pair.
[He permits himself the closest to a real smile most people are ever likely to see from him, which skews slightly wicked before he speaks again.]
We might have broken the Grand Canyon a bit in the process. Sorry.

I have been wondering, what do you live for? What keeps you going and gives you reason to live?
[ yes, deep meaningful questions, Kaworu loves them.
Finally, the angel presses a piano key ] I do have another question, what kind of music do you enjoy? I'm very fond of classical, but I'd like to learn more.

In any case, he speaks softly, as usual ]
Hello, Death City. I hope things are well with you after the last battle. I understand it was quite difficult to some. [ yeah, he and Allen had a hard time, too. But that’s not why he is making this post ]
I’d like to know your opinion on something. I suppose it’s a question for Weapons, however, I’m certain Meisters can answer too. How do you feel about the consumption of souls we are asked to do, in this world? Though they are the souls of an enemy, though they are twisted souls, though there is a purpose, are you alright with consuming such thing?

cardfortress[ Hello again, Death City! Near sincerely hopes all of you are feeling fine and dandy, not because he actually cares, but because healthy (or living / mostly unharmed) guests means more customers, and he is finally going to pimp out Black Mesa over the network. The feed starts out as audio, and although Near hates doing this kind of thing, he doesn’t let that show in his voice; it remains as neutral as always.]
Good afternoon. As some of you may remember, a guest by the name of Matt once founded Black Mesa Consulting: a house call technician business which involves repairing computers, business equipment, security systems, and broadcasting and wireless systems. After BREW sent Matt and his second in command back to their respective worlds, it was passed on to me.
We are currently hiring. If you wish to apply for a position, contact me. If you are interested in our services instead, contact the company.
[He links to his inbox and to Black Mesa’s general inbox.]
One of Matt’s and Black Mesa’s greatest contributions to this world was the creation of the Madness Geiger Counter.
( And here is the Madness Geiger Counter, oocly cut to spare your reading lists! )
The MGC is copyrighted and belongs exclusively to Black Mesa, so if you wish to acquire it, do not hesitate to contact us. Needless to say, this device is invaluable during missions, city-wide invasions, or just about any situation in which madness wavelength is involved, no matter how small and seemingly insignificant its intensity may be.
Thank you for your time.
[THANK GOODNESS THIS IS OUT OF THE WAY. Now he can go back to what really matters: building lego structures!]

AUGUST 21st, Afternoon
Mar. 10th, 2014 12:28 amscatterflowerHey everyone. Sorry for being... well, a complete mess this past week. [ But hey, at least Chika's not really all that depressed now, right? That's better... though she's still not completely happy and being her usual, excitable self. ]
Anyway, like I said last time, almost all of our regular employees at Triple A have been sent back by BREW, so we're pretty much hiring again. We have a couple of temp people from Shibusen helping out, but I'd really prefer for us to have at least a bit of a stable employee force instead of just having temp workers alternate all the time.
Don't get me wrong, they're perfectly nice people, but well... it's harder to get people who really know the Arcade like that.
[ She pauses for a moment, shifting her mirror a bit. ]
Anyway, we're looking for all positions. Ticket and token clerks, janitors, a mascot, and repair techs. If any of that sounds like something you can do and you're interested in the position, reply to this message and we'll go ahead and set up an interview in person. We're going to be hiring for a while, so don't feel bad if you're too busy to meet within the next couple of days.
[ She waves into the camera, before signing off... and going to sending a few more private messages. ]
[ Private to Kyubey]
Hey Kyubey? Are you able to talk right now? There's something I want to ask you real quick.
[ Private to Mami]
Hey Tomoe-san! Is everything going well for you? I was thinking that maybe we could figure out some sort of shopping trip in the next couple of days. You know, to just hang out a bit?
[ Private to Kyoko]
Hey Kyoko! Umm... remember how you said that you wanted to try practicing with me again when I was feeling better? Well, I'm not completely better yet, but I am feeling better. I figured we could see if we could resonate together better now?

Jan. 23rd, 2014 08:25 amrosso_fantasma[The camera turns on to the face of a young girl who already appears to have made herself right at home in the new apartment building. Behind her are various snacks and a few discarded, empty containers, and the redhead herself has a bar of chocolate she's contentedly munching on. She's leaning her head against her hand, taking care to avoid putting any weight on the areas on her face that she has bandaged up.
She addresses the camera, looking a tiny bit bored, or perhaps just unimpressed.]
You know, it makes plenty of sense that, if you want someone around to hunt witches, you'd call in someone who specializes in it, right? [Here, she takes a bite of the chocolate bar, chewing it thoughtfully before continuing.] So, if someone, or something, went out of it's way to go through all the trouble to do just that, what's the point of taking away the abilities necessary for actually taking them down?
[She huffs, expression souring momentarily before letting out a noise of resigned irritation.]
This is the sort of thing that happens when you mess around with wishes and magic, though. It's not something to get other people involved in if you want things to go smoothly. [She's certain this isn't anything new to whoever may be listening, however, and rather than press the issue, she'd rather see what sort of information she can get.] Whatever. Who here can tell me more about the witches and... 'Kishin eggs'? I want to figure out how similar they are to what we had back home.

Hello. My name is Allen Walker.
[ It's polite, with a clear tone and lightly spoken sort of way, but frank and the sort of thing said with a slightly lifted chin. From a white-haired boy with an odd sort of jagged scar (tattoo?) with a star-like mark on his face. He's wearing a black uniform, trimmed in red with gold and silver chain that looks like it could be military, but with a silver badge on the chest of an intricate (rose) cross that reads "The Black Order" underneath it. ]
If it's alright, I have some questions for anyone who could answer them.
But is there anyone who can tell me more about Kishin and souls? And... [ his shoulders shift a little uncomfortably ] ....what happens to them after they've been consumed by a Weapon? Or what caused them to become like that in the first place. [ a depraved person that's consumed human souls, yes, but how, why.pings ]
[ basically— ] Does it put a soul to rest, defeating it like that? [ does it save it—
or does it imprison it ]
Thank you.
[ except ] Er, also...
[ With a distinct and very impressive level of do not want but shouldering through it anyway—he reluctantly picks up a piece of paper and holds it up. ]
...Has anyone seen this man?
[ It is absolutely the crudest, most awful sketch you have ever seen from anyone over the age of five that looks something like this.
But at least the hair was scribbled with what looks like red marker. ]

Aug. 21st, 2013 08:05 pmpeacocked[since the last time he asked for people's suggestions went well, he's deciding to give it another shot.] How many of you own pets here or back home? I recently stumbled across this stray- [he flips his camera (albeit somewhat awkwardly) over to zoom in on this cat. of course it doesn't have the cute bow-tie on, but that's what it looks like.] -a couple of days ago, and it followed me home. I've done everything I could to get rid of him, but he's been rather persistent. So I've decided to keep him.
Except I'm not entirely sure what to name him. I've never owned a pet before, so I was wondering if anyone had any ideas what I could name him. [because let's be real here, the name he's picked out, which so happens to be moonbeams, is a terrible name.]

Greetings, fellow visitors to Death City. I have been told that this device will allow me to write to all of you. My name is Sona Buvelle, and I arrived here from my own world a few days ago.
Although I would very much like to help this world in whatever way they need, I must admit to being a bit confused by my sudden arrival. I’m afraid I was in the middle of something, and the change of scenery has been very...jarring.
[A pause, as though she’s not sure what else to write.]
First, I suppose it would be best to find out if any of my allies from home are here. Has anyone heard of the planet Runeterra? Of Demacia, Noxus, Ionia...the Institute of War? I know that it is possible that I am not the only one – isn’t it?

redregrets[Karkat has never thought he had a flattering face, but it's particularly ugly when he's worried, because he looks about two times his age. And he's worried alright, because a certain housemate has been missing for far too long for comfort.] Has anyone seen John? John Egbert. He's human, and he wears stupid glasses and has stupid messed up human dentition. Actually, wait, hold on, I drew a picture. A lot of you probably know him; he's the obnoxiously friendly type. Anyway, he hasn't come back to the hive in a while, and it's not like him to just disappear like that. Well, okay, it is, but not for this long. He would have finished setting up a prank by now. If anyone's seen him, let me know, because I'm going to run around the whole fucking city looking for him, and that's going to be a pain in the nook. If anyone wants to help look, that would be cool, just look for a guy running around that looks like my drawing.
Also, does anyone know how to take care of a hopbeast? ...Humans call them bunnies. It's John's, and I have no idea how the fuck to take care of it. I've just been feeding it carrots, and making sure it's still breathing. John's going to murder me if I kill this thing while he's gone.

computationsI have recently been working on making a musical instrument as a gift. It is not a difficult task but since it is expected, I cannot say it actually works as a gift. Gifts are supposed to be surprises.
While I am loath to admit it, I am not as knowledgeable as I should be when it comes to music and musical instruments. That leaves me with a question to ask.
What would make an appropriate gift to go along with a violin? There is not much I can say would match so I need to know.
It would...be a gift for a significant other.

ferroustigmata[Sasha isn’t used to this kind of heat, and it shows. Sweat mats his usually fluffy fringe against his forehead, and it’s clear that the energy has been sapped from his body. He’s still wearing his jacket, as if he’s unaware that it’s contributing to the problem, but he’ll take care of that problem later. Like when he gets home, in the air conditioned comfort of Sasha and Yako’s shared apartment. But right now it’s not all that important, because all he wants to do is just send a simple message to someone he knows he can put a bit of his trust in.]
Hey, Takuto. I know we were making plans about visiting the hot spring, but we ought to wait until it...uh...
[As if he’s completely forgotten the sentence he’s just said, Sasha stares at the communicator with a blank, exhausted expression. Maybe if he thinks hard enough, it’ll come back to him. But all that thinking ends up doing the exact opposite--robbing him of the ability to think entirely, or even be conscious.
The video blurs as he falls to the side, one foot failing to catch his weight as he walks forward. He would have at least managed to catch himself if he had at all the will to do so, but no, he’s completely out. The communicator clatters to the ground, giving a perfect view of the perpetrator, hanging high up in the sky with that ever-present shit-eating grin.]
...Sasha!
[The camera doesn’t show it, but the sound of rapid footsteps approaching and the metallic jangling of dog tags that quickly become audible soon make it clear that Sasha wasn’t wandering around on his lonesome. Yako cuts in and out of view of the recording, far more concerned with checking over her partner than the mirror on the ground.]
...oh my god, you’re burning up...
[Her voice cuts out, briefly.]
...that’s a sign of heat stroke, isn’t it? Dammit, Sasha! I told you to quit with the layers...
[There’s a slow, slightly shaky exhale, before Yako seems to pull her nerves together. She takes notice of the communicator, finally, and picks it up. One of Sasha’s arms is already slung over her neck and she’s visibly worried, but there is, thankfully, a building behind her—the one they live in, for those in the know.]
I-I’m going to get him inside and cool him down as best I can first of all. I-If anybody with medical experience can tell me what to do beyond that, I’d really appreciate it. Otherwise I’ll just call an ambulance.
