[Maka is sitting at the kitchen table, legs crossed on her chair as she pours over her books for studying. It's obvious that no one is home, because if they were they would have stopped her from listening to really bad music. Something along the lines of this is playing. She's busy scribbling down notes and bouncing her head along to the music, clearly she's enjoying it. As the music gets louder and she gets more into it, she sets aside her books and stands up to start dancing...like anyone who is home alone. As the song ends she stretches and sighs.

Then embarrassment comes over her face and she leans over to see the device is on and blinking. Because she just knows she's going to hear some sort of grief over this. She basically looks like this. Nervously she laughs.]

So uh...anyone want to go training tomorrow?

Some information has come into my hands that I'm curious about and I was hoping one of you could enlighten me on this subject. Multiple answers are not only fine but also encouraged because there's no such thing as too much information.

I assume my question is simple, however I'm still unaware of minor details in troll culture so it could be more complicated than I'd imagined.

What's a "moirail"?

And on a second note, I've worked out a more effective sopor substitute. However, I'd like opinions on what you believe the best method would be to apply it. Via a sort of reuseable patch, a type of lotion or merely a container with strong enough fumes to be effective or any other ideas you may have.

[The video begins with Stein sitting backwards in his usual chair, what looks to be some rare exotic animal tied down to a lab table behind him. He was going to wait for later to do this, but decided that perhaps getting this out of the way before getting caught up in his experiments would be for the best.]

With BREW acting the way it does, I've noticed it seems to be a problem keeping every new guest updated and information gets mixed up and is rather tiring to continue repeating. When information circulates between multiple parties, valuable bits get lost or forgotten in the moment. And since repeating myself in class gets old quickly and stops progression, I've made a basic write up of what everyone needs to know.

[Video switches off and turns to text with a file attachment.]

This guide is to be given to anyone who comes to the network asking for information. I would also suggest any of you who haven't been attending my classes regularly have a careful look at the information as well. If anyone pulls the tl;dr card I've seen tossed around, then that's your own problem and I'm not summarizing it for you or answering any questions that are already gone over there. However, if you believe there's something that should be added to it for improvement then feel free to ask questions or make suggestions.

[It switches back to video, Stein now has a cigarette and seems at least a little less stressed.]

In regards to my specialty class, I apologize for the delay in the final announcement. I wasn't expecting things to escalate as quickly as they did.

[So apparently the communications devices can do speed dial and call waiting. Neat.]

[Filtered! Rosalia.]

I had someone drop off the supplies. We didn't count them, but we covered most of casualty communal. I'm fairly sure that there's a little more than a hundred packs, so they should help... Anyway. Good luck with whatever you're doing.

[Filtered! Bakura.]

I haven't been able to find anyone that looks capable of being delicate when it comes to our little project. Can you recommend anyone? Thanks.

[Filtered! Neku.]

...Are you moping? I didn't think you the type.

[Everyone else!]

Say. What do all of you do for entertainment here? Other than fighting the war and saving the world, of course.

[ 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!

It’s come to Blair’s attention that a lot of Death City people don’t know how to date! That’s a real shame, huh? Lucky for you, you’ve got me on the case! There’s plenty of good looking guys and girls to go around!

First victim! [She holds up a picture so everyone can see]

Everyone knows Death the Kid! He’s in charge of the city and guess what ladies, he’s single! Can you imagine? He might be kinda young but who wouldn’t want to cute a date reaper?

Check out those abs! This one is Sendo. He’s a special case cause he likes boys only. He’s lonely and has an anger problem, but maybe some love will cheer him up! Someone who likes fun would be perfect.

Last one!

This is Vriska. She likes action so wimpy men need not apply. [Tee~hee] Lemme know if you’re interested!

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.

[greetings, Death City. it’s your wonderful current acting Shinigami gracing the screens of your communicators, and he has a very, very important announcement. seriously, look at that face. in the background, however, some may notice two girls, the taller one of which was just shaking her head.]

	Good morning. I hope that everyone is enjoying their day so far. However, there are two things I’d like to address with everyone. First. [holding up that abomination of a box of chocolates.] Excalibur, if this is your work again, you could at least leave me out of it. As such these are going directly into the trash. [really, what is with that particular chocolate? anyway, setting those aside to be trashed as stated.] Secondly, I could not help but notice how wrong some of these Valentine’s Day hearts have been. [holds up one. to the casual observer, nothing seems amiss, but Kid will be quick to point out the problem.] If you were to fold it like so, you can see that the halves do not evenly match with one another. [demonstrates. see that sliver of heart that goes over the other half? that’s like. barely noticeable? yeah that.] So as your current acting Shinigami, I thought it only proper if I should instruct everyone as to how to create a perfect heart by—

[ WHAM! Suddenly the door is kicked open and in stumbles Black☆Star, dragging Soul tenderly by the hand(?) ]

Kid! Kid! We got an announcement!

[ He almost gets blushy when he looks over at his BFF. ] ....you wanna tell him?

[Let it be known that Soul did not seem to mind this dragging at all. Heaven forbid, he might have even looked... happy. And not just in his usual Soul way. Like. Genuinely happy.

What is going on.

At the question, though, Soul squirms a bit (yep, squirms), fidgets, fails to make eye contact several times, then mumbles:]

No, you tell him.

But, Souuuuul... [ Black☆Star practically pouts, turning in the direction of the deathscythe before setting his hands on his shoulders. He stares deep and lovingly into his eyes. ] ...maybe if we sing it?

[this? this is a look of pure disgust and horror as Kid just stares at them.]

What the hell is wrong with you two? [and what the hell do they want to tell him? does he even want to know?]

[Wow, Black☆Star. Bro.

You’ve got such nice eyes.

BUT WAIT HE MUST NOT GET DISTRACTED.]

Fine! But you have to start!

[ Black☆Star spares a slightly annoyed glance toward Kid when he interrupts their ~*~broment~*~ ] There’s nothing wrong with us! We just finally realized something that’s been there all along.

[ He turns back toward Soul. ] You could say I’ve been SHOT THROUGH THE HEART [ begins the horrible, off key singing and he grabs Soul’s cheek to pinch it with the next lyric. ] And you’re to blame...

[...oh hell no. he could see where this was going. so while those two bro birds were distracted—]

Liz. Patti.

[guns will soon be in this young Shinigami’s hands, though his weapons were cracking up.]

[Of course, in pursuit of TRUE LOVE, Soul can’t be bothered to notice impending doom on their hands, right?

So now, in an equally off-tune voice, and complete with what he thinks is a totally intense Rockstar Stare, a pinch to Black☆Star’s cheek in return, and a grand sweep of his other hand in Death the Kid’s direction:]

...You give looooouuuuuve~ A BAD NAME!

I ….......um....uh.... [ Black☆Star comes to a dumbfounded pause as he tries to remember the rest of the words, looking to Soul as if they could bust out some dramatic and heartfelt duet. ]

[And that look just makes so much sense.

Forget the fact that they’ve both forgotten the lyrics, guys. THIS IS TRUE LOVE. As such, Soul’s giving his bestest bro ever a big smile, a Meaningful Nod, and then, as he turns back to Kid:]

SHOT THROUGH THE HEART--

[BANG BANG.

two shots, perfectly aimed right at their chests. the force behind it was enough to knock them back to the ground, and Kid just stood there with a deadpan look, the smoke still rising from the barrels of his twin demon pistols.]

Satisfied?

[well they did say "Shot through the heart".......]

[ooc: HAPPY VALENTINE’S DAY DEATH CITY. Brought to you by your loveable NPCs. Kid = black (or default); Black☆Star = blue, Soul = yellow. All of them will respond accordingly.]

[Chrono's looking tired and upset, but physically seems to be doing rather well, considering he was one of the kidnap victims. He has a few cuts and bruises, but most of it is covered up by his clothing. He's sitting with his shoulders hunched, and he's not quite looking the camera in the "eye".

He also attempted to filter this from the people he feels he needs to apologize to, but screwed it up because of how bad he is with computers. Whoops.]

Um...I'm not normally someone to ask questions of random strangers, but I'm not really sure what to do. Is there some sort of good gift you can make or buy in order to apologize to someone? [He pauses, then speaks quieter.]

"I'm sorry" doesn't feel like enough.

malandragem

Sometimes I must wonder if BREW truly thinks it so wise to take the powers some of you naturally had and replace them with those we are given here. Considering the events of the invasion and the retrieval mission, I cannot say I fault some of you for wishing your powers were your own, and not reliant on others.

I do wonder why it is things must change so, however. Would it not be simpler to merely adapts people's abilities to fighting Witches than to change them completely?

[There's some quiet tapping, and then a sigh.]

Regardless, it was good to see that we could all manage with the hands we were dealt when things came down to it. A shame that it took us quite as long as it did, however.

[Without saying anything else, she switches to text and then puts up a filter.]

[sometime during the late afternoon, another feed pops up on the network; this time Maka is on the air, with Soul tagging on right beside her, although it seems as if she's the one holding the device as they trek down Shibusen's impressively long staircase]

Hey, everyone-- Maka here, along with Soul- [she nods a little in his direction] -and we just got back from a mission we were sent on, which is why we had been absent for a while. Which-- I apologize on, especially after we heard what happened the past few days...

[Soul, in the meantime, is walking along in his usual fashion: hands in his pockets, jaw slack, wearing boredom the way he wears his clothes. He glances at his partner once, then looks back at the camera.]

Everyone all right? [A beat.] You better be.

[in response, Maka simply gives him one of those looks (that sort of frankness wasn't needed right now!), turning the camera a little more away from him]

-- What he means to say is, we hope everyone's all right, or at least is going to be. So if anyone ever needs anything or just wants to let us know what's up, give me a call, okay?

[Aww, c’mon, Maka, they don’t have to babysit, do they? -A-

Still, he’s breathing a sigh out of his mouth.]

Yeah, what she said. [Siiiigh.] And if anyone cares, we’re fine. [Obviously, his look seems to say. Since he’s a Deathscythe, aww yis.]

( ooc: both soul and maka will be tagging! )

Seems it's still needed. Don't mind us.
