[After thinking through whether or not it was a good idea for quite a bit, she finally decides that this would be a good way to find some things out - especially with the situation between herself and Minato. It would also allow her to uncover some other possible Persona users. After all, if there are other people here from her version of Japan as well, it could be possible for such a thing to exist? Especially since they seem to come from her future, after all.]

[Audio feed clicks on, for her to get just a single question in:]

What does the word 'Persona' mean to you?

[Here's hoping this doesn't end up with too negative an outcome.]

Hello! Goodbye! Don't cry over spilled milk! Stay in school!

I received a couple packages the other day, one of them from a my~ster~ious person. Uwah, mysterious person, I must be ever so special to receive something from you! Maybe it was someone who wanted to be my Valentine, but was too shy to come forward. How cute. Be still my heart!

Yawn. Is the soap opera over yet? If you ask me, everyone could use more special effects and sci fi! Put on some dramatic background music!

Let's play a game called, "Guess how many people are going to come scold me!"

It's okay if you want to scold me. I don't mind~. It's not my energy being put to waste, after all! To be frank, it flatters me when people care enough to try, as if it will really make a difference~.

It won't.


Eh, Josak. I guess I should say... Thank you.

[Cross is in a foul mood. Not that this is abnormal, but at least he as a reason today.]

[What might actually be surprising is that he's taken his foul mood out to pick flowers. He's putting together quite the lush bouquet, selecting only the best flowers, the just-blooming ones that will last. And he's taking surprising care in doing it.]

[Officially they're for Euphie, but he always has a few extra for another pretty woman who happens by.]

((OOC: Feel free to find him in the garden or pavilion, anywhere that has flowers. He'll be dropping them on Euphie's door after, so anyone can feel free to catch him in the act if they wish! If not, he got away clean~ leaving a little note that simple says "You deserve better. -C"))

[There is a clang of noise. Only, 'clang' is not a sufficient word to decribe the ripe cacophany of falling metal and squishy teen troll. The communicator comes on in just enough time to catch the loud and really rather angry vulgarity hidden in the middle of the noise.]

SHIT FUCKING FRONDBITER ASSFUCKS.

[The noise stops, except for the necessary little tinkle of metal just after you think everything is all over.

Eventually there is a groan.]

Who the fuck thought that was a good idea?

Does anyone have any funny stories?

[Saki's back at the Force headquarters after her brief stay away after having her cast removed earlier in the morning.

Hunched over the dispatch board, feet locked around the chair legs and nursing her second cup of coffee -- answer her easy question or find her there, because she's bored and trying to distract herself from the new arrivals, and lack thereof.]

What kind of treats go with a tea purrty? Inquiring kitties need to know!

[If you go to the convenience store today, you will notice certain items are missing. Namely:

-ALL of the tea
-ALL of the towels
-ALL of the sugar cubes
-ANY AND ALL SUNGLASSES
-NONE of the buckets

Nepeta is now totally purrpared for Equius! Just as soon as she gets this all home. It's hard to carry everything, even in bags, because of the cast on her right arm, but she is a kitty on a mission, so she will manage! Feel free to intercept her Virtuous Mission.]

Rolling blackouts? Hah! [ She giggles, and it's a sinister sound. ] That's no fun~

Why not go with the prison-wide blackouts again? Those were the best! [ Raptors included. They were at least a challenge. ]

Hey~~~ Who wants to play a game? [ You don't. You really really don't. ] Someone tried to tell me about about 'Catacombs and Wyverns'. Anyone know anything about that? Looks like he chickened out~ [ You can hear her breaking heart. ♥ ]

(ooc: She means Dungeons and Dragons, but of course we can't call it that. >.>)

Shit...

[Vriska is holding her glasses, completely smashed and totally unwearable now. She's sitting under a small tree with a cat curled up by her side. Not that she's really paying it any attention, too caught up in her own whirlwind of thoughts and memories right now. It seems like her eyes and arm are back to normal (no more robot limb!) and her clothes are... colorful.

Sets the crumpled glasses on her lap and rubs at her temple, lips forming into a deep set frown. Headache of the century right here.]

Bluh!


[ooc; Guess who just came back from an update... She taken from her most recent point (highlight the next part if you want to be spoiled) after Kanaya punches her and is checking up on Rose.]

[This is a placeholder for the daypost, since Acumen's player may not be around to write something up. If you were expecting a request, a yelling-at, etc, please consider it given. Assume it is a clear warm day!

Feel free to leave kiosk requests here.]

I must admit that I still find myself in a mild state of incredulity. To be spirited away to a penitentiary in a nebulously ascertained area by means unknown, is in itself cause for indignation. To do so in the middle of my ensuring the propagation of my species makes it more so. Particularly when, as you say, it is 'best' for me and the timeline from hence I hailed.

[the irritation in her voice is clear, but after a small pause and sigh, it lifts a little]

I apologize. Little will be achieved from griping. If those in charge of this facility and this machine, Acumen, was it? If you are listening I beseech that you at least return to me that Very Important item which you have taken. I assure you it is by no means dangerous.

If any others are listening, which I believe must be the case, then of you I ask to enlighten me. Whatever you can tell me about this Marina facility would be most appreciated.

[Her voice is very clear and steady, though heavily laced with anger.]

Let's cut to the chase.

I know you're here somewhere, Kaguya. And when I find you, I will rip open your stomach and burn every single one of your internal organs to ashes. ♥

[A pause. She continues, less angry but still quite pissed.]

So...anyone know how to get this damned ball and chain off of my leg?

[A video feed activates a bit after 8 AM, showing a perky blonde dressed in a rather red yet stylish tuxedo, complete with a top hat, a white rose pinned to her chest, and a cane in her hand.]

Hi! Some of you might not know me, but I'm Milly Ashford!

Since many of you here are of school age, Nunnally and I have decided that this is the perfect place for a Student Council! [Even if it is technically unofficial for now, it's not like there's money to worry about, right? She just hasn't really had the nerve or chance to discuss it with Euphemia yet, what with her weird behaviour...] If you don't know, a Student Council is a group of students who help organize the student body for events such as cultural festivals and also helps manage relations and planning between school clubs!

But don't worry! Even if you're not a student, since this is an all-ages facility, you can still be a member or create your own clubs no matter your age! You'll just have to drop by and propose your club and we'll help set it up and make sure that everyone has their own space to work in with no conflicts!

We'll get to more details tomorrow, but more importantly, to kick off the founding of the Student Council, we're holding a special festival today for St. Valentine's Day! And don't worry, even if you're not a student you can take part!

Romance is, of course, the focus of St. Valentine's Day, so we want to help you out! And what better to use than chocolate?

So, today will be: Cross Chocolate Day!

For today, there's one special rule:

[She pulls a heart-shaped chocolate wrapped in pink foil out of a sleeve and holds it up for the camera.]

Anyone who gets his or her romantic target to eat a piece of their chocolate wins a date with him or her!

( Details behind the cut! )

((OOC: Make sure to read the info post!

Action open to any parties interested in tracking her down following her broadcast.))

I can’t believe this... [His voice is low, quiet. There is a lengthy pause before:]

This is awesome! Oh man it’s just like Poe! Going to prison like this for just being in the wrong place at the wrong time. Awesome! Now all I need is a plane and a few other fellow convicts and this will be the best thing ever to have happened to me! The ball and chain is wickedly authentic too!

[Pause.]

Wait. I thought I already reunited with my loving family. This is going a little bit backwards. [More silence before:]

Nic Cage! I have wronged you! I can’t follow your best work ever by the book! Damn.

[Laughs a little.] Oh, right. I guess people can hear me, huh? Hi! I’m John.

[There’s just sniffles at first, as a little girl tries to reconcile over 600 hours in her world with several days in interdimensional prison. She wishes the six hundred hours were just a dream, but her wrist is broken and splinted, which can only mean…

Suddenly, the whole prison gets to hear heartbroken wailing.]

Equiuuuuus! [It’s the only comprehensible word amongst the sobs.]

[[OOC: OH YEAH spoilers up the wazoo for Homestuck]]

[The communicator shows grass, the early morning park, and the corner of a basket, but no people. Still, there's a voice coming through the communicator.]

Hey! Can anyone hear me? Hello?

Is this even working… probably not, but what the hell.

[There's a bird's screech, and the corner of the basket moves a little.]

How the hell am I supposed to hunt with this thing on?

Good morning. Today is the 105th day of the third generation, and more inmates will be integrated into the facility. Please be aware of this disruption as you go about your day.

Today marks the celebration of St. Valentine's Day, an Earth holiday honoring love and romance. As a reminder to all inmates who have not acquired a license: romantic interaction is to remain chaste, even in light of the holiday. There will no longer be any leniency on this. Consider acquiring a license if you are interested in celebrating.

Inmates Mako Nakarai, Peregrine Mendicant, and Terezi Pyrope: your requests are at the entrance to Sector 0.

[ Himawari is holding a giant book titled 'ASTROLOGY AND YOU'. She seems very intent on whatever line she's reading, before she finally puts it down with a cheerful smile. ]

I used to read my horoscope every day in the newspaper back home. I know that a lot of people don't believe in astrology and sign reading, but I think it's a fun hobby! If not sometimes accurate!

[ Flips to the Sagittarius page. BEAM SPARKLE BEAM ] My birthday's on November 27, so that makes me a Sagittarius! How about you? I can read your sign for you too if anyone would like me to.

( Private )

( Saki )

I've noticed that there's a significant lack of animal life around here. The few animals we do have are either fellow inmates, domestic, or rabid. What a shame. I've always liked bird song. Fish are poignant and charming, but unfortunately silent.

At the risk of sounding terribly mundane -- what's your favorite animal? [♥] If you don't have one, then go ahead and complain about the ones you hate instead.

[ooc: you can find Zelman sitting on a park bench. so normal. except for the fact that he's virtually untouched by the light snowfall. if you venture close enough, you'll realize that the snow never had a chance, because all of it is melting before it can get close.]

[ He really brought this on himself. If Eridan wasn't going to request his very own recuperacoon, the others would have to take matters into their own hands.

Eridan's habits weren't hard to peg down. Today, when he was out and about; to go to the beach, or whine at a human about his problems, you know... shit Eridan does, Terezi made her way into his apartment (what's property damage?), and left a little treat for him above the front door -- a bucket. Not just any bucket, though! A bucket filled with ~sopor slime~.

This was for his own good.

....and her amusement. Of course she's sticking around to watch the aftermath; patiently waiting to witness his reaction from her hiding spot behind another door. ]

((ooc: Closed to Eridan and anyone who has any business being involved in this and/or is brought to Eridan's place. Looking at you, trolls~))

How I feel at the moment is not hilarious and you better not think it is, so where the fuck are you, spiderwitch?

I've said this before because it's true! You're a no good, fucking backstabbing land hag so you would leave me all alone like this here, I hate you so much right now and it hurts more than I would like to admit! If only I had my Ahab's Crosshairs on me yesterday I wouldn't have been hiding inside my apartment I would have been obliterating all those monsters outside who dare kept me from finding and ripping you apart before they ever could have!

Otherwise, I don't give a fuck if all the humans died out due to the monsters around here whenever the power goes out, fucking land dwellers don't even appreciate the hemospectrum and there are too many of them...

[Vriska's disappearance makes one very upset Eridan without his kismesis]
