ic notes and random gab

( AFTER TALKING TO VI ; FILTERED TO ANYONE SHE'S FRIENDLY WITH )
Checking in. There's been more disappearances.

Let me know that you're alright.

你好！

Keeping the community connected with this dedicated network is pretty clever. Anyway, my name is Mei-Ling, everyone calls me Mei. I've only just arrived. Any suggestions for a hotel? I'm not too picky, but I like my comforts. 😊

My absence from the network has been inexcusable, and possibly a sign of the apocalypse?

Happy Holidays, everyone! 🎁 🎄 🎅

( ❤ )

Y'all have so many holidays here. What's the next one again? I'm still gettin' used to having a reason to celebrate.

American eating habits are strange. But it also makes sense?

Like someone told me to put butter on a poptart. It's weird but it's a pastry and pastries always taste better with a butter wash on them! (Like I guess egg wash is good too, but butter is better!)

I kinda wanna try more pastries though. Or something super spicy!

Someone talk me out of it! I'm actually considering cutting my hair? First world problems, I hear ya, but I've just felt kinda out of sorts. Like I need to make a change?

Something?

Maybe I should think smaller and switch up my usual lipstick.

Talk about more trick than treat...

My head feels so heavy.

The big 20 is almost here. I'm thinking of having a little birthday bash.

Who's free this Sunday?

Did you know that you can use PICTURES to tell people how you think and feel on the internet? IT'S PRETTY NEAT!

...I also learned that using BIG LETTERS is like I'm YELLING. I've been doing some learning about how to use computers. They sure as hell would have been useful in a battle!

Dear Residents of Preya,

My name is Cassiopeia Black. For those of you who do not know me, I am part of Preya's magical community. I do not speak in any official capacity, but as a very concerned citizen.

It is my understanding that a number of the recent 'disappearances' were in fact residents of Preya being taken by ship to an island belonging to the ruler of Preya, for a holiday. While they may have enjoyed their sojourn away, I must condemn this action in the strongest possible terms. If the ruler and his advisors wished to extend the gift of a holiday to these residents, why in the world would they not inform them in advance, giving them the opportunity to notify their friends and family?

It is especially concerning if we consider that other, unexplained disappearances have taken place. One is hesitant to suggest deliberate manipulation of events or a wish to spread fear. I do suspect insensitivity rather than malice. However, it seems essential to speak against this. Where I come from, it is the duty of the community's most advantaged to have the courage to set an example to the others. I have not been personally affected by recent events, and that is why I am speaking out. As an observer, they seem both alarming and confusing.

I call upon the ruler, his advisors and associates, and the council of Preya to condemn kidnapping and abduction for any purpose, however well-intentioned.

I don't believe they'd dare come after me for such a public declaration. All the same, I'm sending Arcturus to stay with you for a few days. I've told him not to be any trouble. Check your protective wards.

Hello! I'm Katsuki Yuri! I'm a figure skat'm new from Detroit if you know where that is, and I've just got a part time job at wheels helping instruct and running the rental counter. So, if you need a distraction, I'm here! If anyone wants to visit the ice skating rink, I can give you some free lessons there, too. Does anyone know if there's a dance studio around?

I'm sorry so many of you seem to be missing someone suddenly. If there's anything I can do, let me know. It's not a good feeling at all when you lose someone you care about.

Uhm. Something lighter. What's your favorite food? I don't think I've reached my mother's level yet, but I'm learning! Mine's katsudon, which is sauce, egg, and fried pork cutlet over rice. I could fix it for you if you like, but I can't promise it'll be as good if you've had it before!

Hey! Hange Zoe here, your local friendly scientist!

I'm looking for willing and able scientists and technically savvy people to help me with a project. What I need are people who can assist in building more 3d maneuver gear. This gear allows a person to move freely trough the air quickly, moving from point to point. I have provided some notes on the equipment here.

As well as this, Commander Erwin posted recently asking if anyone wishes to take part in our regular training. You will get to use the 3d maneuver gear and you will be trained in how to use it properly.

It is best for the people to be prepared for anything! And who knows? You might enjoy flying through the air and landing on treetops! It's exciting!

I look forward to working with anyone who wishes to help! If you have any questions, feel free to ask me here!

I seem to have caught a chill, and that's always a terrible inconvenience. I'm not going to take to my bed yet, but I'm afraid I shan't be up to any social engagements.

Sometimes Preya seems altogether too small. I am going to make a list of places to visit when it is warm again. Tell me if you have found a spot here that is beautiful, or ancient, or fascinating.

So... I've never really done the whole Valentine's Day thing, always thought it was stupid really but, seeing how this is my first time spending it with someone... What do you get a guy for Valentine's Day?

What's Valentine's Day? And the first person to tell me to look it up myself is going to get a snowball upside the head.

I guess I should introduce myself. My name is Allison Argent and I got to Preya a week or so ago.

What's fun to do around here?

Who wants to celebrate the Lunar New Year with your favorite gamer? ♥

I'm holding a 3-day celebration, February 15 - 17, at the Reagan Inn in Ravenmoore! I'm using their conference rooms and it'll take place during the evenings! There'll be lots of yummy South Korean foods, lots of fun things to learn and awesome, traditional clothes to wear, and fireworks on the 16th! If you're interested, you should stop on by!

Will said it was safe for me to write things here. He said that it's safe.

I just arrived here. Will thinks I should go to school too, like him. What is school like? The Institute looks nice. What else is there to do in Preya? It's very different here.
