ok listen up, this is actually legitimately important

if this is your first time getting locked up like this, you need to understand one main thing going forward: our lives are less than worthless to these people. every second we're still breathing is a second more than they needed to give us.

i can't promise that we're going to be okay. i don't know if ALASTAIR gives enough of a shit to come for us. but even though i'm not gonna be the guy who has a lot of pretty words to say to keep hope alive or whatever, i do know a few things about staying safe in here. surviving, if this is for the long haul

1) don't make a fuss or be a nuisance to the guards. don't draw attention. the more forgettable you are, the better off you'll be

2) try to avoid using your jewel comms as much as you can. if they realize we're communicating through these, they'll be confiscated

3) DON'T TRY TO BE A HERO. this is the most important point here so i'm gonna repeat it, DO NOT TRY TO BE A FUCKING HERO.

we're not in a fucking action movie, trying to escape or break everyone out will get you in deep ass shit, maybe even made an example out of. don't fucking do it.

[She's been busy. As always. Helping with rebuilding. But at the same time, she has also taken some time to relax in the aftermath. Resting where she can in knowing things usually get a little crazy with missions and all. It's never easy. Realizing some friends have gone, whether on other missions or that they've gone home again. But she tries to pick herself up each time she finds she can't find or get in touch with one. She misses so many that have come and gone by now, after being here since the beginning. Since the dragons, since Chantes. But it still hurts, even if it does get better.

Which is why she often tries to distract herself. This being one of many attempts.]


I almost forgot! I know we're getting ready for the next mission and finishing helping where we can with the rebuild here at Oska, but. Before we do go, I wanted to tell everyone about an idea I came up with earlier, with Sonia-san. Since I know some of us have been here....a while. And some of us are newer, to get to know each other, or to help each other in being homesick, I thought -- ah, we thought it might be neat if we made scrapbooks! To tell each other and share things about our homes. I know I miss mine, so. I thought it might be a neat idea, if anyone else wants to. We both found some supplies at least. I sort of made a start on mine already.

Um, I mean, I'm not sure how many people might be interested, but. I thought I'd say something in case others wanted to join in and make one of their own too. Like I said, we have supplies, some we got back at Woodhurst. I hadn't figured on where or when to meet yet, if people wanted to, at least in getting the supplies from one of us, but. I'm sure we can manage something. Especially if this is probably something better to wait to really start on till next time we get back to Oska. Um, just...let me know, okay?

hello my little sibs!! i'm afraid i have some bad news o(╥﹏╥)o

as u know our dearest oska is typically invisible to the bad guys!! this usually works out super well and in fact it still does but ... BUT (∩︵∩)

OK so

remember those slug people you brought back from your last mission?? the people with slugs in their heads i guess that is more accurate and sensitive. we managed to save a lot of them (▰˘◡˘▰) and that's good!! but then, before we finished, some of them got out!! and that's bad. they just slipped right out of our hands, like slippery fish

or ... slimy slugs ◔_◔

so they got free before their heads got fixed and THEN THEY WENT ON A RAMPAGE ヾ(゚д゚)ノ

long story short: cloaking devices disabled from the inside!! reinforcements called!! chaos!! madness!! lots of fighting for like,, the past week

(seriously it's been sooo bad lmao)

and, well, we need help! initially we shut it all down so that these nasty zymandis slugs couldn't call for more fucking backup AND so we could give the other teams a proper warning (like this one, lol) before we let you in again

so get your knives out or your spells or your swords or whatever cool thing you have in your armory bc it's time to kick some ass ᕙ(⇀‸↼)ᕗ

(mostly robot ass)

(but still)

we'll call you in soon, so finish up with all those cute kitties and get ready to roll out!!

[So. Yeah, this whole virus mess sure was a thing. Sakura's resting on her bed with a book next to her when she turns on her jewelry.It's clear she's tired but...some what recovering and feeling better from the exhaustion of recent events, even if she herself wasn't infected. But more than that recovering fatigue is something like relief, which shows more obviously in her features even amid the tiredness at her eyes initially as she sits up a little straighter.]

...I had my birthday again the other day. Or, I think so. The timing is kind of weird, since I feel like I only just had my birthday recently in starting high school back home and all. But...I guess this makes me fourteen?

But that's not what I really wanted to say. I just wanted to thank everyone. For helping out. Because we all worked together, we managed to figure out a cure and all, so. Hopefully from now, the people here will manage, that they will be okay even if it might take a little for them to recover. For us too, since I know some of us recruits were sick too. It wasn't easy but....this is why, I think we could handle whatever missions ALASTAIR give us, when we come together like that. We're helping so many people. That's why, even if it's difficult...I believe in us.

Um. I hope those who were sick are feeling better now though. Let me know if I can help any of you! I can heal, so. If anyone was hurt or something during all that....

[With all the information coming out, it's apparent to Keith and Lance that one big elephant in the room has been ignored: the infection among the recruits themselves. Keith is tired and on edge, as he needs nothing to do with the infection to be cranky. Lance is jittery, too. But they have to talk about that elephant before it gets too late.

And for some of them, it might be. That's what Keith is really afraid of right now.]


Hey. It's Keith.

and ya boy, lance! [Because things are already pretty doom and gloom as it stands, and maybe things could use a little lightening up? Or something...

It’s a little more difficult to differentiate between people in a group message like this, but it’s a better idea to get something down on text in case they need to refer to it later, and anyone who knows either of the boys can probably tell them apart pretty easily through diction alone.]


we know your mind-phones have been pretty busy lately, but theres something keith and i wanted to talk to you guys about.

Before we get a move on in attacking Zymandis' agent, we need to look at our own numbers. A lot of us are sick. Maybe less than I thought. Or maybe more. Either way, we have to know who's sick and make a plan to help our own. And I'm serious about HELPING. Not putting someone out of their misery or any of the other stupid stuff I've heard from some of this team. We need to stop this disease. We need to help our own. Once everyone's BETTER, we'll make a plan for what to do next as a team.

[It's harsher than necessary but likely less harsh than how it might be normally, given Keith's frequently frustrated tone of voice. Text mitigates some of it, even if his frustration definitely does become CAPITAL LETTERS.

Lance, meanwhile, is quite eager to gloss over that sharp reprimand because seriously guys — kumbaya.]


yeeeeeah, so — helping! getting a head count is definitely ideal. we cant afford to be silent on this and we definitely CANT be alone right now, cuz every one of us affected and on our own can be a huge risk to everyone here. so we were thinking… since the city shut it down, we can use the middle school. those of us infected can stay there while we wait for our people to find that cure. like a quarantine safe house.. i know its not ideal, but its something. especially for those who dont have any other contingency plans.

[A pause. Well. May as well get the ball rolling, right?]

ill be there.

keystaff: (Soothe the soul)

[Right now, she's in her bedroom in the space she's staying at with Reika and Julius. There's perhaps a couple of books next to her bed, and some textbooks from school. It's....been a while since she did homework, but Sakura is lying on her bed, lower legs in the air as her feet swing as she talks, one hand cupping her chin and cheek to prop herself up.]

So...I know things are tense right now. I'm not sure if there's a way to figure if someone is sick unless they start showing symptoms of this, but. I am worried. If people on either side of this um, what was it called, quarantine? If they're separated from their family, from their friends, they will get more upset. I'm not sure if there's really anything we can do, anything I can do without making things worse. I know this is for a reason, to stop the others from getting sick, but....

I have my healing from ALASTAIR but I'm not sure if that's going to be enough. Or...I'm not sure how much if any of my magic I should use. At least, not in public. Things seem pretty normal here, almost like back home, except this isn't Tomoeda. It's been a while since I was back at school too. But I think I'm doing alright? So far. I don't want to get in trouble for skipping class but I also feel like I could be helping more by doing something about this virus.

[She pouts, pausing for a moment as she glances back down in front of her.]

Oh! But Graham-san and I have been doing some crosswords together! That's sort of been helping with my English. They're pretty fun, actually! I can read some of the questions out and how long those words are if others want to help?

If you've noticed that I seem to have two different personalities, that's because I do.

[There's another pause to let that information sink in.]

I'm called Lucy, though you may already know the other me, Nyuu. If you don't know either of us, then know this warning:

I don't know how Nyuu became aware of my existence as some have informed me, but should you ever have a problem with me in the future, you will address it to me alone and not Nyuu. You will leave her out of the matter. I'd rather Nyuu not become embittered by the time we're sent home.

Should you choose to ignore my warning--

[Lucy had been sitting on a rock outside of the remains of town and there was a gigantic piece of debris from an enemy ship right behind her. Soon the grating sound of metal being crushed fills the air, thanks to four of her vectors. The metal moans and groans and screeches in protest until it's nothing more than a twisted mess.]

[The audio is a soft, almost gentle but firm presence in people's minds, insistent on getting her message across. Unfortunately, she's a bit wordy, so hopefully she doesn't lose her audience immediately.]

Good day to everyone. My name is Creaty.

I hope everyone has been doing well? With the recent events being as they are, we've all been kept on our toes more often than not.

For today, I would like to propose an idea for the general populace. Recently, with some tasks and missions I've taken up, and with the constant change in environment, I have been trying something that I thought may be worth mentioning. To put it simply, with each world that we visit, we encounter new materials that we could easily lose access to when we travel to a new place. These materials may be of some use to us as well, whether it be for battle, recovery, maintenance or the likes. I believe that this kind of thing is unfortunate, as sometimes we could also lose opportunities to maximize the results of our efforts if we have the right equipment.

So, I'm proposing the chance of recreating these materials that you may have gathered from past missions, but do not have enough to make use of. I have the ability to do such a thing, though there are limits to it. For one, it cannot be a living object, as anything that constantly changes in composition is difficult to recreate and even dangerous. This also goes for food, or anything that needs to be consumed. Another is that the more foreign the object is to me, the longer it takes me to learn to break it down. However, I am interested in not only improving my skills, but also being able to make use of what we gather from each mission to help with future missions.

I do have some conditions I'd like to impose. I would like to only be approached for things that you are certain will benefit the community, and not simply for entertainment purposes. I would also have the right to reject any items I don't deem fit to recreate, or I simply can't. If these are fine, then I'd love to be able to assist people in any way I can.

This is Julius Visconti reporting in. It's been so long since I last spoke up. I figured that I should say something in case anyone was worrying. There's nothing wrong on on my end, thankfully. [He just went out for five months straight...on a mission he didn't even enjoy all that much.]

Anyways, let's move on. [Enough about that!!]

Today I'd like to ask about weapons. In your opinion, what's the most efficient and effective weapon?

Personally I prefer using assault guns for ranged attacks. We all come from different places so I expect to hear unique answers.

Alternatively, if you aren't armed with a weapon and wish to learn how to fight I could be of some assistance. You can meet up with me at the local trading post. That's all for now. Thanks for your time.

Um, I just wanted to say I'm sorry if I...confused anyone earlier with the bugs and the um, the timeline mess. I'm back to normal now! Like everyone else, I guess. But I hope everyone's okay after the train and all. I did my best to try help keep everyone safe there.

[Among general other more recent events with this new mission. Like Chihiro forgetting her toothbrush, that seems more minor but could be a pain depending just how long they are here for.]

Like I've said before, if anyone needs help on this or any other mission, I have my healing. And my cards. So please just send me a message, okay? Oh, and hello to all our newer arrivals! I think I've met one or two of you, but I'm Sakura! I've been here about a year so if any of you have any questions I can do my best to help.
keystaff: (One step)
[personal profile] keystaff
[Well, while some may have seen her more recently to figure Sakura went home for a while, and she doesn't thiiiink it was too long that she would have been missed, in the timing of things being so different here, she still wants to try reassure everyone. So when she turns on the jewelry to talk to everyone, while there's still that same shorter light brown hair and wide green eyes, the face that greets everyone is more matured, less rounded as age refines her features more. A year or two in someone older might not change their appearance so drastically, but for her, given she had barely been twelve prior in her time with ALASTAIR, it is quite a difference.]

H-hello everyone!

I just wanted to say that -- that I'm back! Though I'm not sure I was exactly 'gone' back home for long with the timing here..... I think it was maybe a year and a half? For me. Or maybe a little longer. A lot happened, back home, since I think I last recall when I was here before. I guess I can talk about it a bit if anyone did have questions. The main thing really is that I'm going to need more clothes. I think some of the bigger things I had before might still fit, but....I'm sure this is something I can figure out easily enough.

[But honestly that is hardly the most important thing here with. Everything else that has been going on. Even if she did initially arrive here again in her pajamas.]

Ah, also -- if anyone was hurt in the battle and all - please come see me and Sieglinde-chan! We're able to try help heal anyone that needs it, but we can't know unless you come to us for help. Or find someone else, if you prefer. I'm sure we aren't the only ones capable of healing. Just please take care of yourselves, okay?

[ Here to break up all the doom and gloom on the network is Dipper, grinning broadly into the camera as he makes a small wave with his free hand. Hovering over his shoulders are none other than Papyrus and Kolitra, as well. ]

Soooo I know we've had nothing but a bunch of bad news lately, and nobody's really sure how to deal with this god business ahead of us... Well, I'm happy to say we've got something good for us! You know, for once.

[Papyrus was hovering over Dipper’s shoulder, but instead now is cramming his skull to fit into the video feed, right next to Dipper’s face. Sorry. What’s personal space.]

POMARR’S OUR FRIEND NOW!!

[ DID SOMEONE SAY DOOM AND GLOOM because hey this guy is here, too, looming. Wearing his full, ominously glowing dreadplate armor. Staring into the camera. He’s significantly less angry than before, though. If anything, he just looks solemn. Subdued. His rough voice, too, is relatively soft; deep and still and drained of the mad despair he had felt when he last spoke on the network. Instead, he seems detached; resolved, but--sorrowful, too. ]

We have convinced her to join ALASTAIR. She has furthermore provided us with instructions. We are to board the restored warship in ten days’ time, at which point we will confront Ryba--and Nalanni, in the bargain.

[ He pauses, and then goes on. ]

Pomarr was clear: once Nalanni perishes, our diminished magic will be restored. It is the only way. She cannot undo it herself.

[ Another beat. ]

I realize that not all of you like this course of action.

[ I.e., the skeleton right beside him, for instance. ]

But it is what must be done. There is no way around it. Pomarr has promised to guide us, but we must ensure that we are ready to face this trial. If you wish to speak, I will listen.

You heard it here first, folks. So how 'bout it?

[ There's a beat, then Dipper finally side-eyes the skeleton shoving himself entirely too close. He frowns slightly, then begins to pull away. ]

Jeez, man, you're too clo

She is sick to death of adventures - or, no, perhaps Alayne isn't. She did visit the East and she chose to travel across the sea to see her father.

But this is...not the same. A sea doesn't have any magical or mystical properties. A sea cannot, in the blink of an eye, carry you from one place to another.

Though she is shaking in fear, she decides to reach out for answers - for hope - for guidance. She must be strong.)

[Greetings and salutations, comrades of ALASTAIR! The face of a handsome young man opens the feed today, smiling wide and surrounded by lions on his bed. Yes, that's right, lions. Shishi, his mount, sits in the background, with his mate nestled nearby. And atop him, crawling across his legs, over his shoulders, even rubbing at his face, are cubs, golden and white and feisty. They growl and chirp at the jewelry floating just a few feet away, and a particularly brave one bats at it.

Their parents, as well as Gilgamesh himself, look appropriately proud.]


Good day. For those of you who have not had the pleasure of meeting me before, I am Gilgamesh, King of Heroes, and your resident lion tamer. I bred them as a hobby, back in my native Uruk, and so I have once again come into possession of several cubs.

[The cubs themselves appear no more than six weeks old. Gilgamesh has to shift a little to accommodate them, as they are absolutely intent on making the broadcast difficult by shoving their little furry bodies everywhere. Not that it bothers him much—he's laughing under his breath.]

They have all been weaned from their mother and thus are ready for distribution. Alas, I cannot keep so many for myself; I aim to find good homes for them among you all. I do ask you bear in mind these are wild animals at heart, requiring a great degree of time and attention to train.

[Though you'd never know it, seeming so harmless, so adorable.. After a time, Gilgamesh surrenders, and gets swallowed up by their insistent pawing.]

They are not... just... housecats to sit on a shelf and... w-wait, do not touch it...!

[The necklace goes flying down the hall as a mischievous cub bounds after it. Gilgamesh will snatch it back... eventually.]

( it's been awhile, right? last time Graham showed up on the network, it was for a purpose. to make sure nobody assumed the wolf was dangerous, and that he'd see to them finding consequences if they forgot. so far, it hasn't been a big concern, which is a good thing. the wolf is doing great, all things considered... a lot better than Graham himself.

he's not happy with what he's come to know about ALISTAIR through the cavalier attitudes of the individuals responsible for the Oska simulation. and it's discouraging to know that he's saddled under another enterprise that cares so very little for the individuals forced into its employ. he can't do anything about ALISTAIR, or the cruel individuals that seem responsible for reinforcing their goals. what he can do, is reach out to the people just as trapped as he is. )


Those of you that made it through the simulation and the subsequent reveal to its circumstances, I'm sure I'm not the only one unhappy with how this place is keen to treat us. ( he didn't butt in on any conversations, but certainly most of the team had not been pleased. ) They refuse to admit fault or mistake but the fact is they use the idea of a 'test' as an excuse to harm and starve us. It doesn't matter to me that such things can be amended now that we're out of it, it gives a clear idea of the people we're forced to work for.

( not positive, basically. )

The rest of ALISTAIR has done little to earn our trust, in fact it's done much to spurn it, but we all have worked together for at least a few months now, some of us longer. I think it would be wise to unite, not for the sake of their demands, but for the sake of each other. I think it'd be a good idea to make note of our numbers and what we can give contribute to our team. We'll be better able to manage our resources if we understand what all we have to offer. ( and unfortunately, that requires talking about himself. )

If we've not been introduced, my name is Graham. I was a sheriff back home in Maine, so I know a bit of law enforcement. I'm also a good hand at hunting and living off the land. I know a fair amount about survival and hand self-defense, and I'm a decent shot with a bow. If you have need to learn any of those skills, let me know. I'd be happy to show you what I know. I have a tamed wolf with me often, you can call him Brother if you like. ( is that a name? not really. but that's what he is more than anything else. )

I know that it can be intimidating to offer information to someone you don't know, and if you would rather not I've no way to make you. I just hope that if anything, we can learn from this experience and protect each other, since we've proof that ALISTAIR cares little whether we suffer or not in our work for them.

( ALISTAIR may not care, but he does. he's met good people forced to work for a way back home. if this helps to protect them, then he's willing to go out of his comfort zone to make it happen. )

Hello everyone! It's me again. I know we have had some newer faces since I last used this myself. I just wanted to say I hope everyone enjoyed Christmas and enjoyed their gifts! And to say if anyone needs something delivered I can help! I figure this way I can help out even if ALASTAIR tend to cover the basics. And help everyone in the process. I know it's more difficult for some with the goblins in getting supplies or food sometimes, so. If anyone does need something, just let me know, okay? I'll see what I can do!

As far as prices go....I'm not sure. I guess that will depend on what people are wanting?

But also, I know I've mentioned my cards to some people before. The Light card, specifically. I think it helped a little when I used it before! When that man -- um, Rick-san! When he gave us some telescopes. I think the Light card made it a bit brighter? It's not quite powerful enough to bring back the sun itself, or.....or I'm not that powerful with my magic yet, but. It's something?

Aaand we got a special surpise, too! {He takes out a container of food.] If you guessed that it's a sad meal, you're way wrong. Itttt's a happy meal! And I haven't done an unboxing video since I left home, so I think it's time I did one here for all of you here in Chantes! Okay, let's see what we got.

First, we got some french fries. Nice, nice - they're a cornerstone of any happy meal! It just wouldn't be the same without them. [He nibbles on one.] And it's good! Well, it's kind of greasy, but in the tasty way! And it has just the right amount of salt. This is what you want in french fries, people!

[He reaches back in and pulls out a cheeseburger.]

A cheeseburger! Nice. This is like the main event of a happy meal. It's cheesy, it's a burger. Where could you go wrong? It was a nice touch it make it a cheeseburger, too, so it matches my backpack! To think it's been so long since I've had one... I don't think that it has long in this world! [He giggles as he sets it down.] That's the main event of the happy meal. Except there's something even main-er! Let's see if I got one...
