[Since Genesis has been feeling very cheery, he's in the mood to talk to the city. Usually, he'd be a bearer of news as part of the Watch or a mouthpiece for recruitment. But today, he's in the mood to talk about something else.]

Did you ever have a feeling-- and impulse, more like, to do something dramatic? Sweep someone off their feet, or run off on an adventure? I didn't think I'd feel such a thing, but perhaps it's about time to revel in a little happiness. Do something beyond the fighting, the training, and the daily hubbub.

What I mean is...

Yako Katsuragi, would you like to go flying with me this afternoon?

[He ends his feed with a great big grin.

Oh, and if you feel like assaulting him in person or something, he'll be a sitting duck at the agency's reception area.]

[The blond appears in view with an indifferent expression and a cup of tea next to her on her dining room table]

As some of you already know, I have a couple of empty rooms in my apartment that need filling. I’m not going to be overly picky about who fills them as long as they can pay their share and mind their own business. The apartment is on the third floor of Fatality Condominiums and there is a lovely new garden on the balcony. Those who can cook, garden or clean will be considered first.

On a similar note… [she glances around for a moment before lifting the mirror and pointing it at a black and white kitten sitting on the back of the couch watching her curiously.] This was left behind and needs a home ASAP. I think its name is Jerry or Jesse or... something. Anyway, first come first serve, there are some items that can go with it, some need to be fished out from under the couch and probably the beds as well.

[The video starts with an evil laugh and gleaming eyes in sinister shadows before Bakura leans forward with a grin that’s full of bared teeth. The evil spirit has spent the last days searching the city near and far for the souls of two certain multi-color-haired midgets just to return with his hands empty. He had went all the way to make sure that it was no fluke and now he had certainty of the result. Malicious killing intend is dancing in both his eyes and his voice, twisting them more away from his nice counterpart than ever as he intones a mocking chant.]

The king is dead, the king is dead, long live the king~! Isn’t that how it’s said? [He laughs derisively before he shakes his head with a haughty tsk.]

All those things, all those times …and now that! Having it end like that feels almost too easy! [His smile drops into a discontent frown that turns his eyes hard before he tsks again and shakes his head as he brushes whatever thought he had aside with a wave of his hand.

The expression he presents the network with again seconds later is that of a winner, amused and cruel. ] No more games, dear Death City, for the main actor’s dead and the rest of the story’s already settled! [He feels betrayed.]

Both the main actor and the secondary cast have been removed. [He'd wanted some more time.]

So I’m going to end the game-! [It should have been personal!!]

The only thing is.. What’s the gamemaster left to do once the game’s won and over? [The frown is back at those last words. For a moment Bakura seems honestly troubled, then he shakes his head again with a mumbled curse and ends the connection. Atem has been much more than just an enemy to him.

No amount of public gloating can replace killing him with his own hands.]

tauborn

[Takuto doesn't look sad for this appearance on the network, but he doesn't look characteristically happy, either. He just looks... tired. Maybe it's just that the only light is the glow from the communicator's screen itself, but he looks far more tired than a seventeen year old boy obsessed with singing out his youth and being a source of metaphorical radiance has a right to look.

He sighs, turning the video feed away from himself, into what appears to be total blackness.]

...Some of them are missing. [The darkness of the image focuses in and out of a blurry gray before slowly resolving into tiny pinpricks of light. Stars. There's the sound of a heavy sigh once again.]

I know it's not a thing that's particular to this city or this world or the situation we're all in. People can leave for reasons much worse than a magical device's whim. But all this leaving is exhausting me. People coming and going and coming and going.

[He pauses, recollecting his thoughts as the images blurs, refocuses. The stars twinkle, distantly, silently.]

I think life is a string of people coming and going no matter who or where you are, but… but here, this… I’m getting tired of it.

BREW sent Yuugi away.

huntressing

[ Judging from the (moving) background, Masako seems to be walking up the stairs as she's activated a broadcast on the communication device. She's still looking as unamused as the day she got here, some sort of stiff frown permanently stuck on her face. ]

I have an inquiry. [ Her tone is extremely business-like, if not just stiff to begin with too. ] I certainly am not used to this way of living, so-- [ She's cut off by the sound of a thud and then the sound of stuff falling down the stairs in the background. She turns and the device turns with her in her hand to show what's lower behind her on the stairs - Shu is standing there. ]

No... [ Shu voice suggests that something terrible is taking place. ]

Why did I have to drop it after coming up all this way? [ He looks at Masako with an angry expression. Shu's the last person who should be carrying heavy luggage. ]

I can't take it anymore! Don't just speak so calmly at the mirror, Miss Masako! Please take responsibility and help me out here.

You agreed to help me with a thing or two, did you not? Carrying my things up these stairs would be one of them. [ She just says it calmly like it's the most normal thing in the world to make people do stuff for her, especially when they offer it themselves.. but she sighs a little as she stares at the mess that rolled down the stairs. ]

Although you are the one who dropped those things, so you should pick them back up. Isn't that the way the world works? Here, I'll at least tur-- [ --n off the device, presumably, but she does just that.

Someone please tell her she can't just make people into her servants or come give Shu some moral support.. ]

( ooc: Masako and Shu will be seperately replying to tags on this post! )

Ok, now that lots of stuff nobody really cares about happened I guess there’s an update in order: Anybody involved in that LRPG plan, feel yourselves informed that it’s on indefinite hold since the one in charge doesn’t feel like wasting all of that effort and attention on an ungrateful git anymore.

Things might get picked up later on, but for now that’s that.

[There is a pause and a faint close-by clinking sound of a spoon hitting a side of a cup while the background shows the familiar background of the Hikan Café. Bakura takes a sip before he gives the camera a serious, calculating look.]

I’ve also decided to rent out some of my special talents. I’m a Meister with lots of experience, no partner, good with pretty much all kind of Weapons and any kind of monsters. I’m an expert on the occult and treasures as well, but that’s not relevant.

I’ll go with you on a mission for a fixed rate, no questions asked, no strings attached. If you want to do something different than monster-hunting, ask first.

[Private to Yuugi]

Hey vessel. How are you doing?

peacocked

[sugata was used to living a normal quiet life, so dealing with slow days was alright. but this was getting ridiculous. he wanted to do things! but he couldn't really do a lot due to an unfortunate circumstance. and if he had to watch one more death-themed cooking show he was going to blow. this cabin fever was going to be the death of him.]

What do you all do to pass the time here? Other than working or going on missions. [as much as he'd like to help, he can't really go out on any rescue missions right now.]

amorini

Evening, Death City- hope the evening's finding everyone alright...!

[Cupid's voice comes amidst the slight clinking of dishes being put away- which may explain why the post is all audio instead of her usual video.]

Okay, so I've been thinking, since Blair brought it up to me and... I think- considering recent events and the fact that the city probably isn't as safe as it could be- that more of those here could probably use partners- or at the very least, someone they can call on when things get a little hectic.

Therefore, I'd like to suggest a kind of... partnership speed-dating event- though really it could be for regular dating too.

For anyone that doesn't know what speed dating entails, it's pretty simple. Those interested gather in a venue and are given a number- then half are seated at tables and the other half switch around the tables after a certain amount of time. Usually not more than ten minutes, but the duration is totally up for discussion depending on everyone's preferences.

Each person has a paper that they write things down on- namely which people they got along with best and would like to see more of. Then at the end of the night, the papers are given to the Host, and the host then pairs up those who thought the highest of each other for longer 'dates', so to speak, at a later time. Obviously for anyone looking for partners it wouldn't be so much a 'date' as probably a resonance trial or even a mission... but still!

I think it sounds like a good idea... what do you guys think?

I don't have a date in mind yet, but I think waiting until after the Gala is probably a good idea, just to make sure everyone has time to wind down from something like that. I'm also open to venue suggestions if anyone has any ideas- actually, I'm pretty open to suggestions, period...!

[Here she finally takes a pause in her slightly too-peppy ramble to take a breath and almost palpably hesitates before continuing.]

Oh, one more thing before I forget- um... it looks like Jack's gone, so I've got a bunch of extra cupcakes I'm probably not going to finish, if anyone wants to drop by and take them off my claws I'd appreciate it.

starfruitfrog

[The screen is dark when the feed starts, then a cloth covering the communicator is whipped off to show Keroro standing in a spotlight wearing a tophat and a black bowtie.

With a mysterious (according to him) tip of his hat, he grins at the communicator.]

Summer. A time of magic, mystery and burning desert heat, de arimasu. What better way to spend it then, than at our enchanting Summer Gala, de arimasu?

[With a practiced flourish, he produces a golden invitation (he put a lot of thought into this, okay...) and rose petals, courtesy of Eve standing somewhere off-stage, start showering down on him.]

I look forward to seeing all of you on June 20th, de arimasu.

[And now back to your regularly scheduled programm-]

Ah! Wait, de arimasu! If there's anyone who wants to help out with things like music or costumes, please leave any contact information with me as well, de arimasu.

[With a final wink, the spotlight switches off and the video itself cuts after another few seconds of darkness.]

Has anyone seen Clair? He hasn't been home for a while and normally he lets me know if he's going to be gone for more than a day. I've already checked with the clinic and he has not been admitted.

I'm getting the feeling that BREW has sent him home and I may need to find a new roommate or two. [The condo is too big for one person who doesn't like being alone]

[~~Sound Only~~ Audio post, private to Nanami Kiryuu]

Nanami-san, I know it's been longer than you suggested.... [He pauses for a second, before correcting himself with what sounds like a genuine apology,] much longer -- I'm sorry about that. But, I was wondering if you would still like to get lunch or something?

... If you're still interested, at least.

For those that may not be aware, I'm Hyuuga Neji. I've recently taken command of the Watch in Sarah Kerrigan's absence, so any issues, questions, or concerns relating to it may be forwarded to me here.

[That was the short and sweet part, but afraid the rest of it won't be]

With the leaders of the kidnappings and riots having evaded capture, we'll be working to maintain the security of both Guests and civilians within the city, while keeping our eyes out for suspicious activity. Assistance in these endeavors would be appreciated.

To those that were held hostage and subjected to that treatment, I'm sorry we weren't able to prevent those captures from occurring. We will work more diligently to prevent anything similar from happening in the future.

Toward that end, the Watch has undergone command restructuring, with Zone Leaders able to effectively cover each active district once again. However, we're still short-handed in a number of areas, if anyone finds themselves interested in joining.

We're looking for clerks to handle administrative duties in the office as well as medics, or those with medical capabilities either on-call or on the field to handle medical emergencies. And of course, we can always use patrolmen to help keep a district secure at all times. Those with some combat experience preferred.

Interested parties are free to apply here. Thank you.

Hey. I've been put in charge of the Financial and Service District. You can call me Mello. I'm still covering my old shift in the Shopping District until that area gets sorted, but if you need anything, let me know.

Alright, now that the kidnap-season is over is apparently over.. I’m looking for a princess for a city-wide event. It can be either a real one or somebody who’d be good at playing the role, guys can apply too. Payment’s generous.

That said, I’m also looking for somebody who’s familiar with the library and cares to give somebody who’s not a tour.

[The feed opens to Neji standing next to the Commander's desk at the Watch office, looking squarely at the feed from across the room]

First, I'd like to inform everyone that Morning Training will resume tomorrow morning. I apologize for the inconveniences that arose, but both Lee and I feel as though it was the best course of action given the situation. While the current circumstances aren't ideal and the civilians still aren't entirely complacent, those that may find themselves concerned about the field's security can be assured that there will be a temporary increase in security to maintain the safety of the Guests that attend. Thank you for your patience.

Secondly, there's the matter of city security. The riots have been quelled now that the organizing force has been taken in for questioning. For those that aided the Watch in working to contain the city's unrest, we're very grateful for the assistance. It's unfortunate that we've suffered so many losses lately that we couldn't operate quite as effectively as usual, but with Shibusen's agents and Guest volunteers, we were able to manage. I'll hope a few of you may consider taking an official shift in the near future.

And for those in the Watch that took extra shifts and lost sleep stretching themselves to cover for those we most recently lost, you can relax now.

[Yes, he knows who you all are, don't think he doesn't]

That said, I know all of you have been keeping demanding schedules lately and it isn't quite necessary any longer. You're free to return to your normal shifts, though if any of you would like to keep up your current assignments for any reason, please let me know. I'm grateful for everyone's diligence and cooperation in the midst of the chaos.

Well, well, well.

How are you on this fine day, guests of Death City? No matter where you look at, you see nothing but network posts about people being mugged, getting attacked, robbed, shops being vandalized, loyal guard dogs getting euthanized [he chuckles] or should I say attempted to be neutered~?

[He sighs oh so heartfelt.] It would seem that quite harsh times have befallen you.

Truly, I can see why everybody is so worked up about it! After all you are the people with the special powers and circumstances and yet they don’t treat you as their heroes anymore! But the thing is… The strong will always want to prove that they are right. That they are justice and are only thinking selflessly of the greater good.

..All this considered you have the right to your righteous rage, guests of Shibusen. Some of you even got hurt!

[There is another thoughtful pause before he continues, apparently musing to himself.] But you know… I wonder if the offenses still justify the retributions. [He laughs and ends the call.]

soulsutures

[The video switches on to Stein in his usual place sitting backwards in his chair with his arms draped over the back, he looks more tired than usually but given the circumstances combined with his already hectic schedule it's no surprise.]

First of all I'd like to thank all of you for holding with us in these tougher times and assure you we're doing what we can to get to the bottom of all of this mayhem. But that's not what this is about today.

Is there a place here in the City where I can find musical instruments? Not necessarily for sale. I just have the urge to play.

[ Audrey has the urge to poke and prod more at something she doesn't yet understand, more like. It could prove a useful way to kill time while she searches for a partner. ]

malandragem

[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?

[Chika's grinning kinda happily on the communicators screen as the sounds of something moving around in the background can be heard.]

Hey everyone! I wasn't sure if I should do something like this, but I remember that a lot of people do this when it happens so I figured I might as well.

For those of you who know both of us, Zero and I are going to be partners from now on!

[Her smile just gets wider at that, and considering how long she's been here without a partner, most people shouldn't be able to really blame her. She then spins the communicator around to get a look at Zero in her apartment, trying to carry a couple of boxes out of there.]

Zero, why don't you take a break from that for a moment and say hi to everyone?

[Zero blinks at the communicator shoved abruptly into his face.]

Is that really necessary? [he asks her. He sighs]Fine.

I'm Zero, formerly of the Maverick Hunters and now I'm Chika's partner.

[He glares into the communicator.]

Anyone who messes with her will hear from me and my Beam Saber.

[Chika blinks, before letting out a giggle.]

Zero. You ARE the beam saber, remember?

Chika![Almost growl. You are ruining his cool posing with your giggling!]

What?

[She's just giggling some more.]

[OOC: Joint post with Chika and Zero. I'm sure most people here know the drill by now. Pink is Chika and Red is Zero.]
