[Filtered from the Symphonia cast]
Hey, there's something I've been wondering lately. How many people come from a time much different than the others from their world? Most of my friends from my world all come from times that were around two years ago for me, and...it's strange, I suppose, being from such a different time from all of them.

[Especially when he only met those friends a few months from his perspective before he arrived in Death City. But he doesn't say that.]

Has this happened to anyone else? I don't think I've ever really talked with anyone about it before.

My name's Emil, by the way. I'm a meister, and I'm still looking for a weapon if anybody's interested. I usually use a sword, but I think I can try other things too. I, um...I become somebody else when we fight - another me. My friends call him my Ratatosk Mode. I know it's weird, and it might make working together a little harder, but I know both I and my other self want to find a partner and help out more here. So if anybody's okay with needing to work with both me and him, I'd like to try something out. Thank you.

Okay, I'm here at the meeting place, Aion.

[It's dark, but he's got a flashlight, and wow he almost doesn't need it because look at that hair. This post is public because he doesn't see his partner anywhere--maybe the weapon isn't paying attention to his communicator. He could be chasing down villains already for all Takuto knows.]

Has anyone else seen a tall guy with horns and a pair of wings somewhere in outer residential quarter two? We're supposed to meet up right now.

grab_my_bells

[A cool, casual voice undaunted by the fact that, in the background, you can hear the sounds of dogs at play and the wheezing-squeak of a dog-toy.]

I'm looking for a part-time weapon. A back-up. Mine has a tendency to run off to fight without me when I'm not looking. [And weapons with partial forms are relatively ok when they do that. The Meister however...kind of needs a weapon.]

Qualities... [Mm... He thinks about it a second.] Preferably someone mature, reliable, and whose current partner, if they have one, won't be adverse to sharing...

[He goes to turn the device off, then changes his mind.]

Ah. Another thing.

Does anyone know of any dogs up for adoption? Other than at the pet-store? I'm looking to complete my squad. [Kakashi sounds amused (in a sly, I'm-doing-what-I'm-not-supposed-to kind of way) as he talks about looking for another dog, then the message ends.]

[A while later, Private to Sai and Lee]

Are either of you interested attempting resonance as a possible back-up?

kuramaless

[He's not really looking at his communicator. It's been abandoned on the floor beside him - he'd meant to record something-- but the moment he'd thought of something to say, he'd gotten side tracked.

With his shirt up, he's staring down at his stomach, pulling a face much like a childish pout.]

Oi, K'rama. It's about time ya talk t'me yanno? I ain't heard nothin' outta ya since we got here. We're both here, so you should at least lemme know what you think about this place.

[Cue a quick prod to the centre of his stomach-- He doesn't seem convinced though. As he shouldn't be. Kurama is not with him. He knows that much.]

thatkindofscum

[The sound of grocery store ambiance travels through the communicator; sounds like faint intercom announcements to customers and squeaky wheels of shopping carts. Obito takes a deep breath, then begins talking, his voice full of forced cheer.]

Hey, everyone. Uchiha Obito here. I'm sure all of you heard Gai's message before but just to make things clear, if you happen to see either Gai or Kakashi out then please send them home. They need to rest. If they give you any excuses, you have my permission to use any means necessary to bring them home.

[If he had sounded slightly joking before, there's no mistake now. The cheerfulness drops fully from his voice and after a moment of awkward silence he speaks again, this time with lingering hesitation.]

Not to be a broken record, but... after what happened, I know things have to change. With me. [A deep, steadying breath.] So, what I'm saying is, I'll be... looking for a Weapon. I admit, I'm not the best at trusting people who aren't from home. I know I need to work on that.

I don't know my Meister ability yet, but I have a clue. I've got great aim, and I think I could handle most types of weapons with a little practice. So we can start training... Oh! Actually, I'll be taking care of things for a few days, so starting on Thursday, I'll be at Morning Training again in the Intermediate level group. If you're a Weapon and thinking about getting serious about this war, look me up.

[He mutters something that might have been a farewell under his breath then ends the transmission.]

( A Private to Kakashi )

[Gai is tired and it shows. His smile is there, but it's not blinding, and his voice is not nearly as booming or enthusiastic as normal.]

I want to thank those that came out to assist in freeing those of... those of us who were taken.

[Rescue is a word that he still can't quite bring himself to say.]

For those that are in a shape to enjoy it, or anyone else, Morning Training is still going on, held by my devoted student, Tenten. I will... I will return there soon.

[For once, he's not sure what soon means.]

Instructors, if there are any questions I am still able to answer them.

[He nods, and then switches to different filters.]

mangekyou

[ Itachi has only been back for one day. while he only came across a handful of people he knew when he was under the influence of the witches machine, he still felt uncomfortable speaking with anyone. but after one night in the clinic, coming home to an empty apartment was too much.

he only has a couple words to say. ]

My brother is gone. [ his voice sounds heavy, but is otherwise emotionless. ] So is Naruto.

[ and then the feed is cut off. ]

clowned

[ the feed flickers on to show a very disturbed-looking Allen.

surprisingly enough, it's not the madness that's left him looking this way-- it's actually something that's been bugging him for a couple days. the city erupting into chaos just temporarily distracted him from asking what's been on his mind. ]

I hope everyone is safe now. We're going to do something about those who were carried off, aren't we? [ because even though he doesn't know anyone who was taken personally it's still important! ]

I have a question, though. I was told to ask those from Shibusen, but I don't remember who I was familiar with before. [ cue a very sheepish looking smile as he says this. he turns quite serious before geting to his point, though. ]

Is it- true that weapons have to eat souls?

scatterflower

*When Chika show's up on the Demise network, she seems a bit, well... more... unhinged looking. She's grinning like a maniac, and giggling as well.*

Hey hey, Masaru-niichan!~

Wanna help me do what I should've done when I first walked in on him making out with a guy and help beat the crap out of my cheating boyfriend?

*Yes, this was in fact broadcast over the entire network. She let's out a giggle that sounds, well, kinda like she snapped.*

[ With Tenten's recent failure of her mission, Tenten self doubt started to slowly grow. Her focus diverted to dedicating as much time as humanly possible to becoming the best Meister ever for Santana, and, to be able to properly resist madness wavelengths. As such, she's been hitting the gym. A lot.

The feed clicks on to show the brief interface of a treadmill. The time spent signals steadily increase. So far, she's spent nearly two hours on it alone. She seems to be moving at 9.5 miles per hour. Her heavy breath gasps for air irregularly. She takes the feed and focuses on herself as she continues to train. She hangs the feed in a place that's more focused on her and less on the treadmill. ]

Good afternoon, Death City! And hello to all of you newcomers! My name is Tenten, and I run the weapon training at morning training with the actual weapons. Not the "I'm a person but I'm also a staff" type of weapon. If you're interested in sparring or honing your skills, drop by!

I wanted to ask the entire network a couple of questions. [ She wasn't quite sure how to phrase them that'll cast herself in a negative light. Hooray for neutral phrasing! ] The first is, what type of qualities to you seek out or find admirable in a Meister? If you're a Meister who wants to talk about what qualities you wish to have for your weapon, that's all right too.

The second is one that should apply to everyone. What do you view failure as? An opportunity to grow? Something that's shameful that you'll never ever reveal? A lesson? How do you cope with failure? It's not that I failed [ Tenten: She's Tsundere over failure! ] I'm just curious about it since I heard that the missions suddenly became really really difficult over night. Stupid Kishin eggs getting stronger. Seriously, what's up with tha-

[ And then Tenten does something stupid. She stops moving. Immediately, the high speed treadmill flings her off the belt. She hollers loudly as she careens into a collection of punching bags causing them to eject at the impact and spread out around the gym. One of them rolls towards the feed as Tenten struggles to get up. ]

Fuck! I've had my teammates sent home, my foot chewed on by a damn Kishin egg, been lit on fire and robbed, grounded at the hospital watching everyone else enjoy themselves, failed a mission and now my partner's avoiding me, I've just been flung from a damn treadmill and it's still January. [ A brief impatient huff as Tenten strolls back to the treadmill. Her hand lingers over the feed as she turns it off with a very caustic remark. ] Happy 2010. Everyone just answer the questions, please. Ignore what just happened. [ SHE WILL MAINTAIN DIGNITY. ]

this_is_keron

[Have what appears to be a red frog looking out at you from the communicator with his arms crossed and speaking with a no-nonsense tone of voice.]

How many people here had actual combat experience before being brought here? And how many of you have been in a warzone before?

[Assessing the capabilities of your allies is important! Though how seriously will you take a talking red frog, anyway?]

haruno

[ Sakura opens a video feed, puts on her best confused face, and tilts her head to the side. ]

Would anyone happen to know where my forehead protector is? I arrived here without it.

[ And that seems to be it, all she says, before the video is cut without another word. Guess who's back! ]

[ The name on this network post shows up as one Tsurugi Kyousuke, but that's not the face peering back via video. Tenma blinks at the camera before he turns away and smiles to whatever lucky person is next to him just off screen. ]

Ooh. So that's how you do it! Thanks for showing me, Tsurugi!

[ Despite the thanks, Tenma's company just huffs from off screen. When he speaks, it's clear from the tone that they've been at this for a while. ]

Tch, don't mention it. How about you just get on with whatever it is you're supposed to be doing here?

[ For a moment, Tenma gives Tsurugi a confused look. What the heck is this guy talking about? Tenma had only been with him the past hour to get a tutorial on how to set up a network post. Tenma had been figured out how to reply all by himself but as for the rest of it… This was like learning his mobile phone back home all over again! ]

What I'm supposed to… Oh, right! [ Tenma addresses the communicator once again, with as serious a face as the kid can make. ] Ah, we were wondering-- I was wondering. Captain? Or anyone else? Are you guys here too? We only just found out about Kariya being here too, so we just wanted to check!

[ Tsurugi snatches the communicator outta his teammate's hands It's bad enough that Tenma can't seem to shut up, but he's also making Tsurugi a part of this soccer boy hunt. ]

You're rambling - I said wrap it up, Matsukaze.

[ Now a kid with an actual serious face takes up the video feed in Tenma's place. He doesn't have much to add to this post other than a brief introduction, and a couple details that his friend forgot. ]

The name's Tsurugi Kyousuke. I'm a Weapon and Matsukaze here's a Meister, for what it's worth. [ Pause. ] That's everything.

[ With that said, Tsurugi cuts the video feed off. ]

[ OOC: Tenma is orange and Tsurugi is blue! ]

[the king made sure to get a decent explanation of how to use the communicator before leaving shibusen, so at least there won't be any accidental recordings this time around. he's still not too sure on how to use most of the thing's functions, but he was shown how to make a post with the video, and how to look at other entries. scanning through the network now that he'd had some time to himself, it looked like it was mostly being used, at the moment, for introductions and questions and seeking out friends.

so when he gets the feed started after a few moments of fumbling with the unfamiliar controls, the video displays a very pretty blonde of questionable gender, sitting in one of the apartments in casualty communal if the background is anything to go by. he eyes the device through purple-tinted glasses for a moment, unsure if it's actually recording like it's meant to, before smiling sweetly. politeness and smiles are usually best for first impressions.]

I'm...assuming this thing is working as it's meant to? [his tone is hesitant, and his voice leans more towards "male" for anyone who was still confused.] My name is Saralegui. There's nothing like this where I come from, so please forgive me if I'm doing this wrong somehow...I was told that I'm a Meister, back on that little tour they gave us all upon arriving. If there's anyone that wouldn't mind explaining that a bit more thoroughly, I'd appreciate it.

[it's a conscious decision to leave his title out of that little introduction -- there's a great deal that can be done better without the attention that comes with his status, so if no one knows for the moment, that's good. and if the explanation for all this really is bullshit and the people running all this know more than they're letting on, then they probably know already and there's no point to saying it.

for now, there's only one other thing that's important enough to mention.]

Belias, if you're here, then come out of hiding already. [he doesn't like the idea that his bodyguard might not be here, so here's hoping for the best.] And...Yuuri, if you're here, then that would be a comfort as well.

[he pauses for a moment, like he's about to add another name to that list, but frowns and stops himself. no, he is not going to call out his mother. that would just be all sorts of awkward and if she was here, then he'd sort of prefer that she just stay quiet and avoid him as well as possible. with nothing else to add, he offers another smile and ends the feed like he was shown.]

clowned

[ cue one very confused little white haired boy trying to turn on the communicator. this was nothing like the golems back home. the background behind him has some trees in it- he's outside somewhere, although he has no idea where. ]

Hello, my name is Allen Walker.

[ realizing it's filming his hair instead of his face, he adjusts the screen as he figures out exactly where he’s going with this. ]

Um… I’ve been told I was here before, but I really don’t remember anything. So I guess this is a hello again to some of you. I’m sorry if we knew each other well, or even just in passing.

I’d like to start helping out [ again? ], if anyone has any information on how I might be able to do that, I would appreciate it.

[ and then the lovuungest pause while it's clear he's messing with the communicator EVEN MORE. ]

Also does this thing have a map? I think I'm lost.

( ooc: so the other Allen just recently left. feel free to have your character not even notice that he was gone. :x )

spandexisyouth

[The device is turned on to show a cheerful Gai. There’s some flour in his hair for an unknown reason and he seems unaware of it, or uncaring.]

Chipotle is not really spicy at all, is it?

[Kakashi's voice comes from off-screen, not far from the device. He's probably working next to Gai in the kitchen.]

Anything is 'not really spicy' to you.

[Gai looks off to the side.]

But this pepper especially is not very spicy! I am sure! I do not see why we cannot put some in dinner!

[An audible sigh from Kakashi.]

Obito will side with me. Two to one, you're outvoted, Gai-kun.

[Gai straightens, looking defiant.]

I am quite certain that Obito is up to dealing with spices! And I am asking the city, not just him! Perhaps you should build up your tolerance!

[A pause.]

The city isn't eating your food. We are. And we'd like to live through dinner.

[Gai sighs, looking down at the food.]

It would not kill you. Especially something this mild! It should not even... Very well.

[Gai steps away from the screen to put the peppers back in the fridge.]

[Kakashi moves into the frame just enough to be seen for a moment, before blocking the camera with his hand. The visual may be blocked, but the audio is not. The tone of his voice is playful and somewhat suggestive.]

I promise to make it up to you later.

[Gai’s voice is on the quiet side, but it’s no longer disappointed, not at all. If anything, it’s rather warm.]

Ah. I... Good. Then I would not mind dinner being... very mild.

[A bit of a chuckle from Kakashi.]

Dinner has to be Obito-friendly. Dessert-- [He stops abruptly and his hand moves away from the camera slightly.] You should really turn the communicator off.

We were-- I was asking-- [In the middle of verbally flailing Gai gets the communicator. There’s a glance at his face - his cheeks are red - and then it’s off.]

Good morning, Death City. I hope everyone managed to sleep well given recent events.

Death the Kid has requested the help of the Watch in rebuilding portions of the city in the aftermath of the earthquake we experienced yesterday, but seeing as we all live here, I thought it best to open it up to the public. Anyone who would like to volunteer is welcome. In addition, anyone with any special skills related to building or carpentry is needed.

Also, a member of our organization, Auron, is holding another of his classes tomorrow. Please attend if you think you would find the information and skills useful.

That is all.

[Filter to: The Watch]

I've been asked to take a role call. I need to know who is still injured and unable to work their shifts, as well as who would be able to cover for those who still need to rest due to injury.

Thank you for all of your help during the time after the earthquake. We responded well, in my opinion.

[Filter to: FMA Cast]

I would like to hear from those from Amestris as well. My duties had kept me from properly keeping in touch. Is everyone well?

[A very wet nose suddenly peeks up at the bottom of the communicator's screen before the puppy's face comes into view. It looks quite like another dog she may have had to leave behind at home, only this one has a perfectly snowy coat.]

White Hayate! Down!

[She has not, however, had time to properly train the puppy, and so the communicator is quickly knocked off the table with a nudge of the animal's nose, which promptly cuts the feed.]

[It's been a weird couple of days. L's spent them in his own Casualty Communal apartment and is sporting a broken rib and a damaged hand that he's trying to move as little as possible, but there are some people he feels he should probably at least acknowledge. Foolish people, he feels, who were willing to risk their lives for his whether they knew him or not... but people who helped him, all the same.]

[Coded to Bakura and Vash]

I wanted to say... thank you for coming to get me the other day. And I'm sorry for biting Bakura and trying to attack Vash, and making you use your Meister ability to seal me in a bubble. I promise that the attempts were not malicious. Thank you also for escorting me to the clinic.

[Coded to Tifa, Yako, Sai, Takuto, Roy, and Allen]

Thank you for engaging me in conversation. I feel that I didn't go completely mad because of your attempts to ground me in reality. I am deeply appreciative; this helped more than you can possibly know.

Additionally... Takuto, I'm sorry for sending you in the wrong direction. It was not intentional, or malicious.

[Coded to Mary]

Thank you for your care at the hospital. It was helpful, and I am appreciative, though I seemed ungrateful and reactive at the time.

[Coded to Albarn]

Thank you for protecting Mello. I feel personally indebted to you for this, and I hope you will not hesitate to call in any favor I have the capacity to perform.

[Coded to Mello]

...how have you been?

knightime

[The video feed starts with the familiar walls of Jade and Rose's apartment. That, and a crapton of pillows. There's some glorious pillow fort making shenanigans afoot. At least there would be if the pillow fort was not already so graciously made. And damn, what a fort it is. There's a crudely drawn sign taped to it. Something about cool kids and only cool people allowed. It's hard to read it to be honest.]

So the amount of uncool going on is off the charts. So we gotta even the odds and retaliate with some really cool shit. No need to thank us. Pyrope and I are just being saints and gracing you guys with the newest update of our hit comic."

[So who the fuck are these coolkids anyways? It's Dave and Terezi. They're chilling inside this really awesome pillow fort.]

It was a collaborative effort, which basically means nothing else in Death City will ever be as awesome!

I'm surprised Death City hasn't exploded from the amount of cool and sheer swag this comic exudes. Jegus, get a medal for that shit.

Hear that kiddies? It's story time with these really fucking cool kids."

Try not to swoon too much. I know it will be difficult, but this is very important, so listen closely!

( The Coolest Fucking Comic ever. Images fucking ahoy. Beware of color eyeburn. )

I know right? I'm sure you're all speechless from the sheer swag that you just read. Hold your applause. We only aim to please."

[Dave reaches over for his device to shut it off, Terezi cackling in the background.]

[[OOC: Red is Dave. Teal is Terezi. Both will be replying! Also drawings are done by me, colors are done by Terezi mun.]]
