[In one of the computer labs, Feldt's having a little bit of fun. She did tell Duo that she'd make plans for a Haro for him. They were rather simple robots and drawing up a set of plans for them? Easy for her. Feel free to stop by and say hello!]

Commander Weinberg, and members of the Defense Force.

I would like to report a potential psychological attack by Road Kamelot-san.

[It sounds too suspicious to let this slide. Tsukasa just fell asleep and had a terrible dream upon arriving at her house? When she has powers of illusion? No, she's doing the right thing. She must report this.]

[Anyone outside may notice an Ammy in the gardens, digging away at the ground. After a moment, she places the Guardian Tree Sapling she requested from Acumen into the hole and covers the bottom of it up a little. Then she backs up and sits to watch.

Happen to watch the tree as well and you'll quickly notice that you can actually see the tree getting taller. It's growing that fast.

Ammy huffs contentedly and settles to wait. It may take a day or three, but she'll watch over the Sapling all the same]

If anyone is aware of the status of Tieria Erde or the woman named Rei, I would appreciate information. Or... if Allelujah Haptism has reappeared.

[This is said as he's taking a light jog in the park, something he probably shouldn't be doing. He's been out for the better part of two or three days, not from the sleeping sickness but from lack of sleep and needing to heal. But this is Setsuna, and not moving or doing something has never been his forte. It makes him antsy, and he does not like feeling helpless. Somehow, jogging seems to alleviate that though the bandages are making it hard to jog in any sort of proper manner.

As is the burning in his chest and in the wounded areas in general, which is a lot since Naoya basically attempted to explode him. But he ignores it and keeps going, stubborn as he is. He looks like he's struggling, but is to hardheaded to sit down and rest... or just not be doing this at all.]

[Ba-dum-tum! That's a set of bongos. Demyx is wandering the music room, and back to planning entertainment that requires minimal effort on his part..]

Sooooooo...

What are your general opinions on beach side drum circles? You know, dancing barefoot in the sand, wailing on anything percussive in sight?

I hear the dolphins go nuts for a good beat! We could break out the tiki torches and do it after 'dark hours' and everything!

[Step inside from the drizzle into the arcade and you'll be greeted by a bit more decorations than usual, and perhaps a bit more noise than the usual bloops, bleeps, and music. Streamers are hanging from the walls and ceiling, mostly in a deep violet colour, and occasional crudely-cut Steel Samurai decorations made out of construction paper (though it may take a little imagination to see them).

All the usual arcade favourites are there, ready to play, like Alley Fighter, Outzoom, Berserk Monsters, Apartment of the Unliving, Chomp-Man, Meteors, Ordeal, and so on. Not to mention older-style games like skeeball, bowling, whack-a-mole, and so on.

Towards the middle of the arcade, a number of tables have been pulled together with various food offerings, particularly snacky foods like chips, Samurai hot dogs, hamburgers, pizza, and so on but no ramen sadly. The bots even mixed up a bowl of red punch which sits prominent on the chain of tables.

At the end, of course, is a big sheet cake divided into a few basic flavour quadrants (chocolate, vanilla, lemon, strawberry), frosted with "Happy Birthday!" written on the top, ready to be cut.]

((OOC: Everyone is welcome! Maya will be all over the place, so feel free to make threads finding her in different areas of the arcade! And definitely feel free to party with each other! Threadjack away!))

Hey, my team-- We now know what the sleeping sickness was all about, and I'm going to update each of you. I'd appreciate it if you keep it as quiet as possible, since it's -- kind of a delicate topic. Ask if you're curious, otherwise it'll be on the watch list. [a little muted, then!]

Soooo, some of you wanted to have a face to face meeting, so we're going to have a little get-together here at the HQ tomorrow night. You can bring a guest if you want, just try not to make it someone on the watch list. And don't worry about standing on formality. We'll all have a good time, okay?

Attendance is mandatory! [he adds this cheerfully, and laughs, ahaha] You can meet our new defense force mascot, right, Anya?
