[ As the feed starts, viewers are greeted by a zombie. Her pale skin and slightly distant expression certainly stood out the most, and were she walking around the shambling movement would only confirm: Zombie. Thankfully, she's not here for brains, and she does make an attempt at a smile before she starts to speak. ]

Greetings, fellow residents of Death City. My name is Ghoulia. Given my recent arrival, there are a number of affairs that I seek to put in order sooner rather than later. A ghoul must not be unprepared if she is to be successful, after all.

[ She pulls out a small notebook, clearly checking it for a moment before she continues. ]

I will be focusing on two things for now. First, I have been informed that I am a Weapon; though I have not yet learned more details than that. I do not expect any particular challenge beyond investing some measure of time and practice to fulfill the requirements of being a Weapon. It would be appreciated if Meisters with a high mental aptitude and without a current partner would put some measure of consideration towards speaking with me in the future, at their convenience.

[ She flips the page of the notebook she's reading from. The camera likely shows that the first page had a considerable number of notes written neatly over its surface as she flips it. ]

Second, I've learned that there are a number of employment opportunities throughout the city. As I have not had the time to familiarize myself with each of them individually, I realize that requesting assistance is the wisest course of action. Preferably, I would like to fill an intellectual void and not a physical void. [ She pauses, briefly, before offering a small smile again and a little joke. ] ...and rest assured, my intelligence isn't fueled by any brains other than my own.

That's all, for now. Thank you, for your time.

[ With that, she offers a polite nod and cuts the feed... only to proceed to add a private text to a certain individual with a screw through his head. ]

[ Meister and Weapon are in the kitchen, arguing as usual as Maka picks up the device not realizing it's already on. Not that she would care anyway, she's got no shame in arguing with him. Soul growls, arms crossed over his chest. ]

DAMMIT MAKA IT IS YOUR TURN TO COOK.

No, it's not. Take another look at the calendar Soul.

I doubled up last week, it's your turn to double up now.

You can't double up on a mission Soul, it's all cheap take out.

I doubled up on pick up, that's close enough. Would you get to it, I'm starving.

No, I have to take care of this thing anyway and I'm trying to get it on.

...Looks like it's on to me.

[ She looks down, realizing that it's on and recording. Her face turns into a mix of nervous and embarrassed. ] Ehehehe...So it is.

Get to it. I want food.

[ She side glares at him, before turning to properly address everyone with a cheerful smile on her face. After all, despite a stressful mission and the crazyiness that is going on, no one needs to be dragged down. ] I hear there are a lot of new people who have shown up here in Death City. So anyway, I'll introduce myself properly. I'm Maka Albarn, one of the meister's here at Shibusen. This idiot behind me is my weapon and death scythe, Soul Eater.

[ He gives a non-committal wave. ] Yo.

We will be helping with the defense around the city. On top of that, we are both available to answer any questions that you might have or help you get settled in any way that we can. We'll probably see a lot of you in classes or at training as well. [ She turns to Soul. ] Anything you want to add?

[ He gives her a side glance, sighing and shrugging. ] Be careful asking Maka questions unless you've got a lot of time on your hands. She's prone to rambling.

[ Okay. She's had about enough of this attitude. She quick with a book in hand and the spine of it cracks down on his head. She stays smiling at the network, as if she hadn't done anything violent at all. ] Anyway, we are here if you need us, otherwise I'm sure we'll see you around.

[ Soul is holding his head in pain. That had really hurt, and he was sure that comment had not warranted a Maka Chop. He growls and goes to get up and head to his room.] Go cook dinner already!

No way! It's your turn to cook dinner. Stop trying to get out of it!

[Despite how messy things have gotten around here, Hyoubu's expression remains amused. If anything, it's more interesting now for him.]

Hey! I found an interesting personality quiz earlier. All you need to do is answer four questions for me--

Hey, you little shit!

[Hyoubu stops talking, blinks, and looks somewhere off-screen and pointing to himself as if to ask, 'who? Me?']

Yes, you. You're one of those Guests, aren't you? [Can't you just hear the love in that one word...

Hyoubu looks back at the communicator and made a show of shrugging.]
Please hold on a minute. It looks like--

Hey, don't fucking ignore me!

[It's hard to say exactly what happened but the communicator drops, and there's the sound of someone being hit...

...then silence. The communicator is on its side and it shows two pairs of feet, though only the pair that are clad in a pair of black shoes moves after a while, to approach Hyoubu's assailant.

Eventually, Hyoubu speaks.]


How interesting.

Stop video. [And then because this function sometimes has issues (hey, there's a reason why it's not enabled by default. He repeats a bit more annoyed than before.] Stop video.

[And then the feed cuts off...but then it starts again after a few minutes.]

Sorry about that~. I didn't expect someone of his girth to move so fast. [You wouldn't have guessed that he had just been attacked from his expression, though one of his cheeks was red where he was hit, though it didn't seem too serious.] Let's put a rain-check on that personality quiz. Right now the question I want you to answer is this one: where is a good place to hide a body in this city?

[He is, of course, not referring to a dead body, but hey, no one needs to know that.]

[CR is not really sure why he feels compelled to make any sort of announcement about any of this. It seems like a necessary thing if he is one of the people running the clinic that he should be sure to announce the existence of this place and that they will welcome anybody. People are coming and going all the time, so it seems like a good a time as any for this. He switches on the video and clears his throat before he begins to speak.]

I have not made a formal announcement, but as I am one of the people running this clinic I figured I should mention it. I am a surgeon and a doctor here. I am known as CR-S01 though you can shorten that to CR if you wish. As some of the new arrivals might not be aware of, there is a clinic here where you can go if you have an injury or you are feeling ill. The staff here as well as myself are welcoming of those that would like to learn basic first aid.

As well as this, I am open to personally making house calls if it is required. Just let me know the extent of your injuries, so I know what to bring with me to assist in easing your pain. I am also available at the morning training sessions if my services are required there.

If there are any general questions, I will answer them to the best of my ability.

I'm sure we all have a 'bucket' list of things we'd like to do sometime in our lives before we die. This place certainly gives us opportunities to cross items off it, such as getting to visit other continents.

On the other hand, it also presents us with things we'd never believed would ever happen to us - the whole manner of our arrival and subsequent submersion into this war aside.

[Akiha is back from her mission in Brazil and she's not terribly happy with how it went.]

For example, I can now claim that I have been eaten by a giant slug. Allow me to cross that off my list. I've always wanted to have to kill something while inside its stomach and then cut my way out. [/sarcasm]

That said, can anyone recommend a hair stylist here? I need to take a few inches off thanks to stomach acid. [Or whatever it was.]

[Kid is looking like he hasn’t slept in a while. that’s likely because he hasn’t. but even so, he has his usual cool front and is doing his best to hide it.]

Greetings everyone. For the recent arrivals, I’d like to formally introduce myself as the current Shinigami and leader of Death City, Death the Kid. I apologize for not being able to greet the new arrivals properly, but BREW’s activation was unexpected and went by unnoticed. Due to the small number of individuals that came through, it is believed that its power was small enough to not appear in the readings. But I’m sure you are confused as to the...state of this city. [his father’s city...wrecked again... the thought alone makes him give a small, haggard sigh before it's masked again.]

The past few days have been trying for all of us. As the others have reported, the damage to the city has been great and a few changes will have to be made to accommodate the refugees. However, that is not the point of this particular announcement. I do have some good news.

As a result of this mission, we were able to obtain the second witch soul necessary for Liz and Patti’s transformation to death scythes. [his expression softens here.] So I am very pleased to announce that they are now official death scythes.

[Patti’s presence in the room becomes apparent when she stomps past Kid, shouting emphatically.] TAKE THAT, YOU DAMN WITCH! HIYAAAHHH!! PYEW PYEW!! [She seems to be reenacting the fight in a dramatic, childish way.] BANG BANG BANG!! Oh, no! You’re beating me! Aaaah!! I NEED TO PROTECT DEATH CITY! RAAAAAHH!! TAKE THIS!!! [Patti continues this reenactment as she continues stomping around, out of range of Kid’s communicator.]

[Liz is the middle ground between Patti and Kid: clearly pleased with the world but not quite as energetic as her sister. It all balances out. It took a while, but she wasn’t going to complain.]

Personally, I thought we needed more firearm death scythes anyway. It was starting to look like a close range-only club. [She’s giving a teasing smirk to show she’s kidding.]


[and Kid just has a bit of a dry look at their antics—well, Patti’s in particular—before he lets out a small sigh and continues.] There is great importance in this. With the madness levels reduced, I no longer need to maintain the barrier, and I can now go out and actively fight alongside everyone. With their power and mine combined, we’ll be an even greater threat against our enemies.

Some have questioned whether it is worth becoming a death scythe. All the Weapons born in this world will tell you yes. But their words and opinions are fundamentally different from all of you. You may still think otherwise, but you will see through our training the greater amount of power we will have.

I’d also like to mention that a pair of guests is actually very close to achieving death scythe status. Cloud and Sephiroth have been with us for about ten months and have acquired 89 souls. What will that mean for them and for those who are considering or debating about it? They will be able to go out into the world to handle more difficult and restricted missions, have more independence in what they can do, and will have higher access to information. Their strength will be of great benefit for all of us and in truth, they didn’t have to do this. But they chose to and will be properly recognized when the time comes. Of course I am not saying you must work to becoming death scythes. But as they’ve proven, it can be done for those who wish to do so.

[and now he really was worn out. for once his weapons may not have to literally drag him away from the desk to rest. but as always, he hides it and keeps that strong front.]

That is all. I thank everyone who has helped defend Death City during this surprise attack and for those who will help rebuild it.

[With the recent attacks Alphonse has been doing his part to help the Watch where he can. So at night he takes to the streets of the outer residential zones and does his best to help where he can. However, every morning just after sun rise he heads back towards Casualty Communal with a bag of fresh groceries in his arm for breakfast.

Of course, the last thing he expects to find is Edward's room empty when he finally gets home. He knows almost immediately that things are different, because the room and apartment isn't simply lacking his presence as it is lacking everything that Ed had come to possess during his three month stay here. He leaves the apartment quickly, quietly, and doesn't even bother putting away the groceries he had set down on the kitchen counter before he tried to wake up Edward.

It's a little after 8 by the time he actually manages to piece together enough sense to pick up his communication device, but even then he spends a few minutes staring down at his metal reflection in the mirror before making his broadcast.]


I haven't been here very long, but when people are sent home all their belongings go with them ... right?

[Part of him is still clinging to the hope that there's the chance Edward isn't really gone for good, even if home is the place they both belong.]

I was wondering, because ...

[The last word trails off as his voice begins to waver, hinting at his emotional state as the a few rays of morning light break through the clouds and meets his face.]

I went home this morning and my brother and all his stuff is missing.

Just a, uh... quick question to the other Weapons here.

I've already tried looking things up on this, but I'm just a bit wary about trusting some of the material.

Weapons get stronger by collecting souls, right? Eating them... basically. I've heard that there was an alternative and Weapons could choose to not collect them, but-

What happens to the souls that we do collect? And can we still get stronger if we choose not to... do that?

My cat is lost.

It's mean-tempered, not very bright, mangy and just generally terrible. The breed is Cornish Rex, the age is "old", and the color is something between smoke and mud. The sex is male.

Wear thick gloves if you attempt to pick it up.

Relevant information follows, so listen carefully.

Yagami doesn't know that he died, and he doesn't know that I'm aware of the events following my own death... including the fact that I know he is Kira. For now, I want to keep it this way. Should any of you encounter him, feign ignorance. If something changes, I will inform you immediately.

[Privately Coded to Bakura] [Text]

1. I got those cards you left for me, and I saw some people playing in public the other day. I am still trying to decide whether I actually want to look like those individuals, but the prognosis is grim.

2. What I didn't tell you recently is that Light is back in the city. Don't talk to him. I'm concerned that you'll ruin something with your general bumbling and strangeness.

3. I am out of shortcake.


[Privately Coded to Yuugi] [Text]

When is the next time you're not going to be over at Bakura's?

[Privately Coded to Eridan] [Audio]

I am nearly certain that our surveillance of Kadaj will draw to a close soon. I want you to know that you have an excellent reference, if you want to take a different position within the Watch.

As much as I like having you work for me, you're too talented to fetch coffee and check spreadsheets. Also, I'll be working alone for my next assignment, by my own decision.

[Privately Coded to Light] [Audio]

How are you acclimating to Death City? I thought we should meet sometime soon. Maybe in the neighborhood of "right now?"

Good morning, Death City! Somewhere out there, I know that there's a special lady who combines these attributes in one flawless package.

1. Good in bed
2. Great in bed
3. Spectacular in bed
4. Searching for all of the above in a sexy love torpedo named Barney Stinson!

Ladies, especially Weapon ladies, send in your replies before they start pouring in too fast for me to keep track of.

Dudes. Dudes. Cock block at your own risk. Because I will make fun of you if you post here. It will be ruthless, cruel, dirty low-down mockery. You've been warned, gentlemen.

I've been giving it a lot of thought, and I've decided that I want to go along on that mission that's coming up. I don't have a Meister just yet, but even so...I feel I should do my best to assist. It wouldn't be right to sit idly by, and partner-less or no, it shouldn't be too difficult to hack at some fauna.

Er...that being said, would anyone be able to help with some training in the next few days? I'd like to be as good with a sword--or any other kind of weapon--as I can be, for this. [ AKA: "I have very little combat experience and I need some asap." ]

[ So the feed turns on sometime early this morning, with Tsubaki peering looking down at the communicator with a small smile. ]

It feels like it's been such a long time since we've been home - even though it hasn't really -

YAHOO!

[ An obnoxiously loud voice interrupts her then, and the view from the communicator shifts to show Black☆Star way up on top of one of the spikes on Shibusen's building. ]

HELLO, DEATH CITY! No need to be scared or sad or worried anymore, 'cause your God has returned from kickin' kishin egg ass! Betcha missed me, huh, all you tiny stars?

[ Placing his hands on his hips, he continues yelling down at the surrounding areas. ] Any of ya got strong enough to think you can actually beat the big and great Black☆Star? THINK AGAIN, HYAHAHA-

[ The laugh cuts off when suddenly the spike he's been standing on breaks, sending Black☆Star plummeting toward the ground. He really should learn not to do this since this isn't the first time it's happened...

And back to Tsubaki, looking alarmed, and then ... just... sighing sheepishly. ]


Kid-kun? We're back.


[ Ooc: Both Tsubaki and Black☆Star will be responding, natch :D ]
