Dose collas dat a couple people have... What do dey do, exactly?

[The question may seem a little out of the blue, but the reason for it is related to the current going-ons.]

I'm trying to get a hold of Gino Weinberg, or I guess anyone from the Defense Force, really. I have a couple of questions about Senp--the deceased. And... well I want to help. [Her voice softens.] He was a friend of mine.

[ooc: Tatewaki Kunou and Akane are from the same world. She can provide information about him, such as his strengths and weaknesses in battle and possibly answer any questions the defense force might have about him. It probably won't be relevant to helping them beat the circle, but she of course wants to do what she can.]

[The airwaves have been quieter than usual today - and what's come across them has been largely people concerned about their friends. Things are pretty down.

She's a little worried about this all...things are kind of distressing and it's looking a bit like the first hour of one of Nick's trials. She doesn't know what she can do...but maybe this will help a bit. She flips on the video as she sits in the common room couch.]

I know everyone is busy or sleeping and a lot of people are worried...

But don't panic! I'm sure everything will be fine. [She smiles.] So long as we keep positive, everything will work out! I'm sure Acumen and the Defense Force will pull through!

Once everyone is doing better, I think we should have a party so everyone can relax and have fun after this. I think I turned 19 a few days ago but I kind of lost count so maybe we can have a big party for that!

Just for now we should do what we can...Is there anyone who needs help with something?

[A shaky video clicks on. Floor. Wall. Ceiling. She's in the Defense Force Headquarters if you are familiar enough with the place to recognize it. The video pans back down, still unsteady, to show a very pale Kitty whose face is tattooed by dark, star-shaped marks. She's trembling from the unrest in her stomach and because she'd been shocked by probably well-meaning people while unconscious, but her eyes are hard and intense as she peers into the device, challengingly. There is an implied threat in her voice.]

Somebody lose something?

(OOC: Action open to anyone who might be in the defense force headquarters especially those who would have been watching over her or to any who might go there after seeing this.)

[Private to Kyon.]

Um, hi, Kyon? It's Risa Koizumi, remember me? I was just wondering - I mean, I know a lot of people are sick right now and everything, but no one's letting me help, and I'm kinda going crazy just waiting in the shelter to find out what's going on. And I was told that I should have someone with me if I go out, so... I was just wondering if, like, you wanted to go to the arcade, or something? Just to do something normal for awhile? Since you like video games too and all.

I mean, if you're not taking care of someone who's sick. Or sick yourself. Omigod, you're not sick, are you? I'm really sorry if you are, just forget I said anything.

So, um, yeah. If you can hear this, just lemme know.

[Private to Akane.]

Akane-chan - I just wanted to check in, make sure you're doing alright. I'm around if you need anything.
