[Accidental Video | Open to action]

[Is that on your journals Miko all gagged and tied to a tree? Yes, that's Miko all gagged and tied to a tree.

Now, the question is why. Simple: after finding out what King had been doing, she found a way to sneak past her army of guardians and uncles and go yell at him. Or challenge him to a duel. Or both.

The point is that this is how it all ended. She isn't hurt, in case you're wondering, but for her to tell you all of that, she needs to be freed.

Help, Kiseki?]

[How's it going, Kisekians? Are you weirded out or traumatized enough yet? Have you lost your ability to feel anything at all and therefore don't care about trauma? Are you angry because you can no longer tie your shoes?

No worries, though, Miracle Country has just the way to cheer you all up. Stopping the attacks? Please, are you new? Come on. In fact, you might be so not new you might've already spent a whole year here! Kiseki is celebrating opening itself up to more dimensions, not that anyone around would understand that's the point.

In the Sakura park, in place of its usual perpetually pink tree, there'll be a massive, multiple-layered cake, decorated in white and, you guessed it, little pink sakura flowers. On top of it there'll be a candle indicating one, and there'll be small tables with plates and utensils to eat the cake if anyone'd like to. There'll be balloons and confetti falling randomly on people all day, as well as native Kisekians passing around party hats.

It seems even the monsters are celebrating, as today any you encounter will be carrying its own cute party hat as well. Not even being a soulless-NPC can stop Miracle Country's festive cheer!]

Hey, hey, are you joking? There’s no way -- …… -- I don’t care about -- ……… -- just tell me where -- ……… [At first, there’s nothing but this short audio file, the words interrupted with static, making the speech disjointed and nearly unintelligible. The static gets louder, and soon there’s a sound of what sounds like a hundred tasers activating at once, a snap and the sound of glass shattering – and for a while, that’s it.

But, never fear, citizens of Kiseki: soon there’s a video feed appearing in your journals, of the hospital lobby, with a ton of candles spread all around it, because for some reason, all the lightbulbs are broken. The video shows a guy with flaming orange hair wearing a black tracksuit and sunglasses (yes, sunglasses, even though it’s dark enough that his face is barely visible in the video), clearing his throat and starting to speak in a manner that can only be described as grandiose.]


My fellow prisoners! Your tragic circumstances have just been brought to my attention! Oh, how my heart weeps for you, all alone and stranded here in a strange world! But there is no need for despair… yes, because Lord Lemon is here to help you!

[A dramatic pause, to make sure everyone understands he’s talking about himself.] There’s a story of a fisherman in Yokohama, who spent all his savings on a new boat. But the next night, there was a storm, and his boat sunk! But the fisherman didn’t let that get him down. Instead, he marched to the loan office, threatened them with a gun and stole enough money to get a new boat!

[He feigns wiping a tear.] A truly inspirational story! So remember…

[There’s another pause, for full dramatic effect:]

When life gives you lemons… reject them and make orange juice instead!

[Birthday grins, tossing a battery he’s been holding in his hand up in the air, catching it and—yep, biting on it as the feed cuts off.]

[[ooc: the lost traits event is going on, so if you want to action it up that is a-okay!! Birthday won't lose anything, at least not yet.]]

[Today seemed as though it would be another quiet day in Miracle Country. Mild weather, a peaceful atmosphere, people probably had no idea anything would soon be wrong when they set off to work, school, or a day of goofing around.

Soon it'll be clear it won't be that simple. Creeping out from the forests and from within the lake or ocean, some creatures will set out to attack others. Becoming impossible to stop at the exact moment of this attack, these monsters will set out to steal something important to people: an ability they have, or an important personality trait, which will now take the form of a tangible, brightly glowing light.

The monsters don't seem to want them for themselves, however. They'll either sneak away quickly, and end up hiding what they took in some difficult place, or they'll challenge the owner - or anyone else who'd like to step up and fight - to a battle for the stolen traits or abilities.

If the creatures get away from you, either because they've gone off to hide your skill/trait or because the battle was lost somehow, the owner of what was lost will always be able to find their skill or trait eventually, as their presence will call back to them. Similarly, if they find someone else's lost skill or trait, they'll be able to know it's not their own. Perhaps they'll want to give it back, too, or maybe even keep it for themselves for a while? While they cannot absorb the abilities or traits themselves, it could be a good way to manipulate others or get a favor from them...]

[[Mingle for the lost traits event! Keep in mind the timing, since any new post opened until the 21st will be happening within the context of this event.]]

[Early this morning, before the sun has even risen, Nossan and Stegotchi can be seen setting up a series of objects in the park. And at 8:00am, Nossan opens a video to announce it to Kiseki. He's wearing a white bandana that keeps his ridiculous, apparently damp curls out of his face; a blue t-shirt with his logo on the front, blue shorts with black and yellow stripes, and his regular shoes. He gives a big bow, and smiles cheerily]

Good morning everyone! It's the second Monday of October, so that means it's Health and Sports Day!

[He sweeps an arm back and shows off what he's created: a small open sports area! He's built an elaborate obstacle course, including a tire-jumping section, monkey bars over a crude mud pit, tunnels, and everything else besides; he's set up gym mats, weighted gym balls and a wide range of dumbells; a small table, currently being lounged on by Stegotchi, has a pair of gigantic coolers, full of fruit and bottles of water, and a large, bulging sack; and everything is enclosed in an 8-lane chalk race track, with a number of sacks and lengths of rope next to the starting line. Everything looks very well-made, albeit made of spare parts and recycled material]

[He grins broadly] I've been helping set this event up back home for years now, and my niece Rika loved it to bits! But since I can't be there now, I decided to bring Sports day here! Stegotchi and I set up lots of things, so everyone can come along and join in some fun events. You're all completely welcome, so let's get together and have a good time! It'll be su-port fun! [big ol' thumbs up!, on which the video ends]

[[Take this as a big mingle journal as well :D ]]

[The video opens on a young girl standing in what appears to be Sakura Park. Despite seeming calm, there's an air of anxiety around her.]

Hello.

[She seems a little unsure as to whether it's actually working or not. The ladies told her that she could make her own movers and send it to everyone with a journal. She reasoned that it's the fastest way to find help. So she launches right in and gets straight to the point.]

My name is Jinora and I'm new here. The ladies at the Welcome Center told me I could talk to other people using this journal, so I hope it works.

[A little of her anxiety shines through before she pulls herself back to the issue at hand.]

They couldn't answer some of my questions, but do you know if there's a way to find out if my friends and family are okay? This journal has a feature where I can broadcast my voice, like a radio. Is there a way to send this signal outside of here? They'll need to know that I'm okay, and I have something important to tell them. I would really appreciate any help you can give me.

They also told me that there might be people I know here. If that's true, if you know me, please contact me as soon as you can.

[Quietly:] Thank you.

005 ❄ Video/Action | open to all



[The video starts out with the above image, of a few jack-o-lanterns set up on Snow's teachers desk, and a moment later there's a small, almost self-conscious laugh as she holds up the journal to get a better view.]

I thought it'd be a nice thing for everyone to do today. [Arts and crafts is getting hands-on today, kids.] If you want to carve a pumpkin, come on down to the playground at the school today. We have picnic tables set up for carving, and you can make pumpkins like these here.

Everyone's welcome to join in... I have lots of pumpkins, and with Halloween so near, it'd be great to get into the spirit of it all.


[Anyone passing by the school today, or having seen the video, is free to join in on the pumpkin-carving. Snow's got a big collection of pumpkins of all shapes and sizes, and will be handling the actual knives part for the younger kids -- and strictly supervising the older ones (and, lbr, the adults too)

And she's set up some other Halloween activities, such as making ghosts, and of course there are some some treats and goodies for anyone who doesn't want to put in too much effort]



[ooc: this is open for basic mingling, too, should you so desire!]

[Video || Open to everyone]

[Since Torin has been around Kiseki for a few months by now, he's used to normal humans seeing him, which means he finds it perfectly natural to make a public video. For those of you who haven't seen him yet... yes, that's a humanoid blue bird in your screen.]

It has come to my attention that I might be in need of a hobby. [Because that's the kind of things he needs to be told.]

After some consideration, I realized I could choose to do something useful as well as enjoyable. So I am offering my skills as a sword fighting instructor. I can teach the basics for those who are just starting, or more specific techniques for those with some experience. Simply let me know if you are interested.

[Things at the bike shop today are looking interesting as the journals show a video from the counter, of Asami working in an aside area usually designated for repairs. At the moment, it's set up for her to do modifications for several bikes she's trying to put a new spin on. Not just your average bikes either, thanks to the engines she's building and the design. Cool, right?]

[Still, she seems distracted, for a moment forgetting herself in front of Neal (who is also in the shop working) as her thoughts wander--concerned since Korra's disappearance. Her attention does snap back to focus, though.]

Neal, I'm so sorry. I really don't have my head in the game today, do I?

What do you think about opening up the garage and trying out a couple of tests with these? I don't think they're ready for riding yet, but...

There's still a couple of things I'd like to make sure are working so far.

[If you want to pass by and see the two of them getting up to shenanigans, or get curious about what's going on, come on by!]

[It's a lazy afternoon in the Spirit Base. Ucchii has a special project in mind, and he is cheerfully arranging many colorful skeins of yarn on the table in the center of the common area, as well as some knitting needles in both adult and child sizes. He also has a big book called "Beginning Knitting", open to the first page. As soon as he's set everything up he takes a moment to survey the work space and then disappears into the kitchen to prepare some snacks.

Once he has the tea, fresh fruit, and cookies added, he pulls up one of the dinosaur-themed lawn chairs next to the table and goes to knock on Lilo's door to fetch her.]

Lilo-dono, I have prepared a surprise for you!

[He did promise they would learn together, after all.]


[ooc: Feel free to tag Ucchii in this post if your character is likely to drop by the Spirit Base. Ucchii is also open for video/written tags.]
