vatheon sfc network

January 2nd, 2012

[As the video feed comes on, all one can see is gray fur and what almost sounds like a small motor running. The fur is actually moving over the screen if one studies it, and the rumbling of the motor eventually reveals itself to be the purring of a gray short-haired kitten which soon shows itself as it ceases to rub its head against the SFC, instead looking into the camera with the rampant curiosity inherent to cats.

There's a small meow and then the feed is briefly killed, only to be restarted nearly as quickly as it had died. It's shortly after this that there's footsteps to be heard and the kitten and SFC are picked up by a certain long banged nobody.]

This isn't a toy, Bast.

[With those words, the feed is again killed, this time for good.]

[At first, there's only Minea's face before Johnny picks the cat up and holds her close to his chest. The smile the vampire usually presents to the community is dimmed and, for those skilled in the art of these things, noticably fake.]

I've been distracted recently, so it took a little while to notice but, Natsuo's gone. He hasn't been in his room for so long the smell's starting to die off and his name's off the list.

Ah, well~ He's gone home, yeah? Probably for the best. Anyway, just thought I'd let anyone who might've been looking for him know.

[Well, for those who'd seen him over the network might be used to this sight by now: a white paw batting at the chain hanging from the SFC and thus knocking it off the table it was placed on and onto the floor. Yet, there is no mistaking that he's rather aware of what the kitten is doing just a few feet away from him on the desk as he cleans the station after the news is broadcast, being sure that there is music playing as he dusts. Otherwise this place is... almost exactly as what the person who'd taken him in had left it months ago.

Yes, it has taken him this long to actually step foot in it himself.]

...Kiryu, how many times are you going to press that button before you get tired of it?

[It's almost like he thinks that the white kitten can understand him. Taking into account that a talking mouse is one of his closest friends back home... it isn't exactly that far of a stretch. Yet even with this menial task, it seems like something else is troubling him. At least, that's what his eyes give away when he finally stops and sits down next to the feline who's now batting at the small chain on the SFC. Pressing a button, and suddenly-]

[Locked from Sora]

Does- [No, he's pretty sure someone knows-] Would... anyone be willing to teach me magic? I have a friend who hasn't been able to sleep well since I left briefly the last time by this world's standards. At least back home there's one spell for this... to my knowledge.

[More like 'it was used on me repeatedly', but he wouldn't admit his own vaguely insomniac tendencies when a friend needed it even more than he did. Nor would he admit that he fails miserably about reading about spells and trying to draw on his own inner strength to duplicate the expected results. ...His bad, if anyone woke up to a loud 'bang!' last night.]

[ooc: oh Christ, I'm sorry for all late tags. RL and canon review do not mix well. D:]

Congress Pushes Tory Act

To Whom It May Concern,

Change is a many-faceted thing.

For example, if someone asks, "do you have any change?", it's very likely they're not in fact asking how often you've moved around the furniture in your apartment, or if you've recently decided to get a different flavor of yogurt, most likely the oddly-smelling and somewhat questionable banana, for your breakfast, instead of the tasty and dependable strawberry. They're certainly not asking if you've changed shoes or if you've decided to try a new postage stamp, or even if you've recently brushed your teeth, after several disgusting and socially-unacceptable months of not a single ounce of dental hygiene.

No, it's very likely they're simply asking if you have any loose coins in your pocket, and it's more than likely the next question will be something along the lines of "disturbing insight on your dental hygiene aside, I was wondering if I might borrow that change?", when it's obvious they don't in fact mean to "borrow", a term which here means "take from you with the usually dashed hopes of eventually having it returned", your change, but in fact take it and use it for their own, usually nefarious, means.

However, if someone asks if you've "had any change today?", they usually don't mean "have you eaten or somehow acquired some loose coins?", unless they happen to be a rather disturbed banker, or you've both been stranded on an island with only a vast bounty of coins to keep you both alive.

I do hope all those who received otoshidama enjoyed them. I had the mochi specially made. With the New Years festivities coming to a close, it is a wonder what to do.

Who would be interested in tea or perhaps a friendly game of shogi?

Shinjuro! Heyyyy, Shinjuro!

[One large eye suddenly appears on the screen. It blinks and squints until the form suddenly pulls back, revealing a young boy wearing a panda hat. He looks as pale as Death himself, but with an attitude that says otherwise. This mood wavers, ruffling his hair and letting out an exasperated sigh.]

Shinjuro~ Don’t leave Inga alone~ We had a deal didn’t we?

[He suddenly bashes on the screen with a small fist and it flickers. The next moment Inga grins wickedly and laughs, seemingly amused by a small, secretive thought.

Instead, he was acknowledging the fact he was somewhere new. And new places meant new people, right? New places equals new people, equals... Well, new and scrumptious souls! It was this thought that would remain hidden as long as the young boy smiled, seemingly excited about something innocent as any other boy. Just the thought of it kept Inga in a gigglefit.]

Heyyyy, someone is watching, right? Shinjuro, Shinjuro! I’m gonna eat one…

[ You may or may have not seen him around, Vatheon but this guy's pretty unmistakable. Normally, he's the charming eloquent sort but today, there's just something off about him. Seems a little frustrated, to say the least.

He seems to be standing in Ciel's room with a conveniently laden tea tray. You can see the bed empty behind him, almost as if he'd noticed something and decided to just... send that feed straight away. ]

As it seems my master has been here far longer than I have and perhaps has made acquaintances of you lot, I believe it in my duty as his butler to inform you that Earl Ciel Phantomhive is no longer in residence here at Vatheon.

[ Though he doesn't seem bothered by the fact that people up and disappear without a trace, he can't help but feel more frustrated by the whole thing. ]

If you've had any business with my master, I will be happy to attend to whatever he may have left unfinished.

[ There's a polite bow though before he cuts the feed. ]
