Hi.

For those of you new who haven't heard it a million times already (Rogier, I'm looking at you, can you feel the side eye from here, I sure hope so):

The chocobos have a treat schedule. Please do not fuck with the schedule.

I am aware they are cute, and that they have the please give me treats look on lock down at this point, but I promise you all they will live if you don't give into it. If anything they will be happier, more productive chocobos and not full of food that they love but isn't the best for them. You do not know what it was like before the schedule but trust me when I say it was madness.

If you'd like to get on the rotation to give treats during the designated treats time let me or Prompto know.

That is all.

The problem with keeping your more prized spell components, books, and wine locked away where few know to look is that one of those "few" apparently includes your future self that has the stickiest of fingers, it would seem. Not even a payment left behind by way of the apparent spell for time travel, either.

Please know that I understand this is the least of our worries and I am not trying to make light of a very real situation, but I feel better having lodged my complaint nevertheless. I am willing to lend aid if I can, either magically or through research.

Also, to add: the honeymoon was lovely, I continue to be grateful to be legally attached to my husband, and Aeor is still very cold. The lights are reminiscent of the last Apogee back home that I remember from my youth, too, which leads to an odd sense of nostalgia.

Can someone explain to me how I went to sleep last night in my bed, and woke up where my room should be, but between two stripper poles and an entire rack of outfits that belong on the Victoria Secret runway. Feathered wings included.

They said we can talk to you.

And I wouldn't be able to forgive myself if I didn't

Don't go and get the me you know, that fucks things up if we talk to each other--something something I don't fucking know time travel bullshit.

Anyway. Hey.

Enid Sinclair

Mi querida, with reinforcements arriving from the past, we're going to see more activity from Interitus and his forces. It's going to be more dangerous, but we also have more force than we've had since the beginning.

But still, don't use this as an excuse to do something stupid or I'll kill you myself.

This message should be able to be seen by present and past people alike. Hello. This is Viktor. I think many of you know me. I am glad to see so many people that have been lost, but-- that is not what this entry is about.

When Interitus took control, many infrastructure systems that we had taken for granted proved fallible, and caused catastrophic challenges that might have been averted. This isn't a reprimand; this is a warning. Only now we can look to the past and see clearly certain errors that might have proven far less grave had we addressed them prior to Interitus and its forces gaining power. Of course, these issues do not go away even should you vanquish Interitus. I suspect many of them would likewise prove troublesome in different circumstances against different villains. I am not in Defense, so I can't speak to that. But I can note the following:

• Hard copies of important documents burn. Digital copies can be corrupted and deleted. Have both of what matters.
• There are adequate and knowledgeable sources of learning self defense. I recommend everyone chooses one type and practises it.
• Separate stores of first aid supplies should be stocked, with more than one failure point.
• When the medical facilities fell, many were suddenly stranded without their medications and reliable healthcare. Many minor health issues spiralled. It is why I Again, some form of backup system might be implemented in the event of disaster to ensure that no one goes without the medicine they need to survive.
• Communication devices such as the network are frequently the only safe way to pass messages to loved ones during an attack. Many citizens are only passingly familiar with technology. Consistent training should be held to ensure that their lack of knowledge does not put the entire system at risk.
• Access to clean water is a consistent problem without reliable magic. I have tried to address it so that people on the run can safely filter water from the creeks and springs using a mechanism, but it has been an uphill battle.
• I wish I had known canning prior to this.
• Structural engineering has proven to be a very important skill that few of us knew much about prior to Interitus forcing us out of town.

I am certain I have forgotten some, and welcome any other observations to help those in the past. These are just the things I have noticed, and am actually okay to speak on.

Hey.

You're not allowed to make fun of me for this, because I'm just saying it because I know there's a world where I never get to. This is serious apocalypse shit and you have to be chill about it.

You're cool, and I love you.

Hey. Looks like I'm dead in the future, and probably it never crossed my dumbass mind to tell people what they mean to me. So I just wanted to say, I love you, man. You're a good friend, and I'm glad I have you.

So apparently I'm dead in the future. Bummer, huh? And I know I tell you all the time now, but I'm gonna say it one more time anyway: I love you. And I'm going to get serious about learning to fight now, so even if everything still goes bad, you're not going to have to be the lady who's sad about me. Not ever. Okay?

You're a kickass DM, and I just wanted you to know that. And the coolest guy I know. Thanks for being yourself, and for taking me and my dumbass bunch of freshman friends into your group.

Hey. El from the Future has given us a quest. We need to find the Nina Project Bunker. She says it's important in the future and they need it a lot. She can't tell us exactly where it is, though, because she's worried about security.

So, who's in for forming a party to find it and secure it?
