--So they're all gone.

[The feed starts up to see a female peeking curiously at one of the places where she had...stashed a bomb the last time she was here. She had a towel over her head, and she was obviously still wet from the re-entry.]

Damn. And I wasn't even here to see it.

[She rubs the towel through her hair, and then starts drying herself off. Finally, she looks at the SFC and grins.]

Did you miss me, Vatheon? I know some of you out there did.

[Not. But either way, she's just ending it there.]

action for larmline apartments + video + lots of bombs

( blah blah action & introspection if you live in larmline....... )

[ —when the feed turns on, smoke and debris is very noticeable. if you live near larmline, you might've heard the loud sound just prior to the broadcast— or maybe even felt the area shaking a little, had you been that close. either way, something just blew up, and it happened just now.

he appears to be broadcasting from inside of an apartment— although a lot more natural sunlight than an open window should be projecting was evident in the feed. the dust that still hadn't settled reflected off the rays greatly, making for a visually poor feed— although some "accident" was apparent enough.

he's holding his own white sleeve closely against his face when he finally speaks, eyes slightly squinted because yes, debris and sunlight everywhere... ]

My er-.. [ how does he classify her even.. friend? nah, he doesn't want to be bundled in with her after this— ] acquaintance happened to affix quite a few locations in Vatheon with very destructive, technical bombs. She had an affinity for controlling them herself, but now that she's left.. [ -well... now she isn't controlling them. simple enough. ]

They're highly sensitive as of now and will activate immediately should you enter one's perimeter. I'd suggest fleeing the area as soon as possible should you hear some sort of distinct ticking noise... [ a cough— ugh, this is a mess... ]

That's all. [ click. ]

[ ooc: so yeah, there are bombs in certain areas of vatheon should you like to run into any of them on your own or attempt to dismantle one yourself—

bombtossing placed bombs in the following areas during her stay in vatheon:

- concealed on the hallway ceiling of floor #4 of the larmline apartments; far end of the hall.
- near the coral— won't damage vatheon at all though, since the coral is indestructible and reflects attacks. the blast might be a bit magnified due to that, however.
- cave complex near the former church site.
- some lamp post in the upper district of the city.

damages to vatheon won't be heavy at all should they be activated, and the npc brad will fix it all up within a day or so, anyway. ]

[Video 02.]

[The feed clicked on, and surprise surprise! It was a face, tired as it may be, that hadn't been seen around Vatheon in a good long while.
Nobody who recognized it probably missed it much, though, considering the things she'd done.

Yuno was haphazardly putting her hair in her usual pigtails as she began talking. Quickly. In her rush, she forgot to actually make the video a private one.]

Yukki!! Yukki, are you there? Are you still here?!
I didn't forget about you, I'm so sorry!! But don't worry, I'm coming for you now!

It can't really be July, though, right? It was just April yesterday.. [She put her hands on her face, embarrassed. July...July was important for them...but oh gosh this was public wasn't it? Get ahold of yourself Yuno!!] U-Um, if anyone could tell me anything important that has happened in my absense I would appreciate it! Thank you!

[OOC: I still don't have internet, but I've moved finally..so I'll be giving some slow responses still for the meantime. Sorry!]

3rd Diary Entry [Video]

[ So yeah in an attempt to get away from the freak show that is his current living condition and trying to reclaim his sanity, Yukiteru has ended up in the park. The edge of the park. Far, far away from wandering eyes. Hopefully.

That is until the SFC decides to turn on.

The screen flickers on to reveal... well, the top of the bubble. Part of it at least as patches of grass on the edges of the feed indicate that it is turned to the side. Mistakenly left there by an oblivious bystander. What could that bystander be doing, you might ask?

Why, only the most amazing, thrilled manner sport in all the history of sports that could be named sports—

—darts.

Yukiteru is standing a little ways back from the feed, throwing these said darts into a little hand craved board on a side of a tree. THUMP. Almost another direct hit to the middle. There are already about four surround it, each either hitting or missing the mark by just a few inches. SO FUN AND AWESOME, RIGHT? Well he certainly thinks so- considering that content smile passing across his lips.

THUMP.

Bulls-eye.

Care to watch this spectacular show, or maybe try to throw a few rounds with him? ]

002 [video/dream]

( if god exists, then clearly aliens have to exist too )

[But then he suddenly finds himself staring at the ceiling of the apartment he lives in. He sits up with a slight frown as he looks around, before giving what sounds like a small sigh of disappointment. Seems like he hasn't noticed just yet that the new dreamberries have recorded that dream of his...]

[ considering there are no apparent unwanted side-effects on the residents in particular during this curse, it is decidedly safe enough to utilize the network—! ]

Good evening, Vatheon. As many of you may have noticed, the structure of the communication devices ordinarily used has significantly changed.

[ it is almost like he is using a working cellphone again. ]

I would like to confirm the scope of these changes. To the unseeing eye, it would appear to be something akin to a modernized technological upgrade— a GPS, translator, and games are all available now among other functions. Curiously enough, there is an included add-on for a weather forecast that is entirely ineffectual. [ this is odd because there is usually weather— albeit not within the barrier. ] If anyone could also confirm the current status of the island for me I would be very grateful.

[ and returning to the run-down— ]

In actuality, this is not an upgrade, but a transformation; that much should already be evident by the change in shape alone. The construction is different— unlike SFCs, these can be taken apart with no damage if you're careful enough. There is also a card slot within the device that serves an unknown purpose.

The most interesting change would be within the formatting options. Note that there is now a "dream" function available... one that I am somehow unable to utilize. If anyone has any further information, it would be appreciated.

Lastly, if anyone is feeling a bit daring, I have a favor to ask.

Thank you.

[Video] - You can blame it all on me

[It's been over a week and Zelos still hasn't been able to locate Zelda. He'd even tried Shizuo's place again but found it empty, his texts to the blonde coming back as undeliverable. He had to conclude that he'd somehow left the bubble. Fine, good for him, but that still left Zelos in a jam. He had no idea where Zelda was and now he had the additional good and bad news that he'd need to impart. He's certain Zelda will miss Shizuo..

So he makes a network post.

His expression is not one of his usual jocularity or even the irritation he normally uses to cover up any uncomfortableness. No, he actually looks downright remorseful, not to mention weary. His body may not need sleep but his mind certainly does and he hasn't gotten enough of it for awhile. It looks like he's spent at least a little of that time he could have been sleeping packing instead; a small travel bag is visible in frame behind him and the room is bare save for the furniture it had initially. There aren't even any roses in the vase on the bedside table anymore.]

[First part: Open, but filtered away from both Links (they can't see)]

Hey Vatheon. I know a lot of you know Zelda and I need your help. I know she's probably fine but we had a bit of a spat and I haven't seen her since. If you could just let me know if she's alright if you have seen her and that I'm sorry and need to talk to her, I'd appreciate it. You don't have to say where she is, I just wanna make sure she's okay. Thanks.

[Second part: Closed, filtered only to Zelda]

Look, I've packed up and I'll get out of here so you can have the house to yourself again. I shouldn't have meddled and I'm sorry for that. You do need to know, though... Shizuo's gone. I think he left the bubble, I can't get a hold of him via SFC or anything. He told me about Link, the other Link, before he disappeared though. I guess I'm sorry about that too. It's hard seeing someone you're that confused about...

Ahh, I'm rambling. [He runs a hand back through his hair and lets out a slow breath.] Just... lemme know you're okay and I'll get out of your hair after that.

Action / video

[Action (closed to Zelda)]

[Link starts awake, and finds himself somewhere... unexpected.]

[The sky above, blue and wavering with light filtering down dimly, reminds him of nothing so much as the Chamber of the Sages - and with an almost physical shock, he concludes that he must be in the Sacred Realm.]

[Then... he really did fail.]

[But if this is an afterlife of sorts, then why are his clothes still torned and bloodied and soaking wet from the rain? The sword is still nearby, and the battered shield - the bow's string is still broken, the quiver is still empty. Setting a hand on his chest, he finds ridges of scar tissue - the injuries that he had succumbed to, now looking as if he had spent a good month or so recovering.]

[And what exactly is that... thing in the middle of the plaza he's now lying in?]

[Video (open)]

[Some time later, dried off, clothed, and settled at the Welcome Center, Link is finally ready to say hello to his fellow foreigners. The tattoo on the back of his left hand gets an uncomfortable look, and the StarFish Communicator (green, naturally) gets switched on.]

...Hi. Zelda said that I can use this to talk to everyone here, so I guess I should say hi to everyone. [He gives a sheepish little smile.]

I'm Link - or one of them, I guess, Zelda said my ancestor is here. [He does look rather bemused at that.]

Um... I guess that's all. [And off it goes.]

Public Apology

[A much more composed Chosen sits in front of the SFC this morning, looking fairly reluctant but this needs to be done. Are those note cards?]

To all the men, women, aliens, and talking animals of Vatheon, I wish to humbly extend my apologies for the events of a few nights ago. It was completely out of line and I know I offended a great many of you. It won't happen again and I'd appreciate if we could just take it as a parable on the evils of alcohol and move on. If anyone still has a bone to pick with me over it, just.. respond, I guess.

Again, I sincerely ask your forgiveness for the ass I made of myself on the network and any trouble it may have caused anyone.

[He tucks the note cards away, and reaches to turn off the picture, but pauses a moment before he does.]

...Except to that white-haired guy. You're kind of a dick.

Zelos + Drunk = bad ideas

[The feed opens on Zelos, headband askew over one eye and swaying a bit but with a huge grin plastered on his mildly flushed face.]

HEeeyyy Vatheon! 'sme, The Great Zelosh Wilder!

[He has to take a long pause to stifle some giggles.]

N-now, y'see, I've noticed that a whooole lottaya don't really know nothin about sex so you're reaaalll lucky you've got me around! I'm kinda sorta a bit of an expert, so's how's about I start with lesson one an'-

[Though Vatheon will never know what lesson one is because an extremely frazzled Zelda stomps into the room behind him yelling "What are you doing?!" and grabs his ear, yanking hard enough to make Zelos yelp and fall over comically. His hand is still visible from the bottom of the screen complete with whining protests interspersed with drunken giggles as Zelda looks apologetically into the screen before cutting off the feed.

Looks like Zelos lost his network privileges.]

((ooc: Messages will be answered by either Zelda or Zelos, depending on who has hold of it.))

001 | Voice

Since there a lot of people who are sick, I was wondering if anyone would like a get well soon card. I know that it will probably end soon but it will make everyone happier! It's better than being sad for the rest of the time!

Is anyone interested in one?

Oh by the way! Has anyone seen someone by the name of Cheren or Hilbert? They're my friends here so if anyone has heard from them, let them know that their friend Bianca is here!

001 [video/action]

[Hello Vatheon. There is now what appears to be a very young child looking down into the communicator with curiosity. After a few seconds of staring, despite being in damp clothing and likely confused like most newcomers would be, he does break out into a smile.]

Ohhh, I see how it works! It's like one of those really cool video phones that rich people have! So there must be people I could talk to through Starfish-kun here, right? [Yep, definitely not that perturbed about being in an unknown place without his parents as he continues to be all smiles as he waves a hand--or rather, a felt-puppet that he's wearing on his hand at the screen.] I'm Reisuke Houjou! I dunno what's going on exactly, but this place looks really cool!

[He does frown a little for a brief second, musing to himself a bit.]

Oh...but where did Onee-chan go? We were right in the middle of a really fun game too...

[...And then he's back to smiling again~]

...Well, that doesn't matter! At least there's people around here I could play with too!

4th Combo - [Video]

[Is this how you call just one person?

...no, it sure isn't. Lloyd hasn't exactly nailed the finer details of using his SFC yet.]

Hey, uh, Yukari?

[So much awkward in just two words. He still remembers exactly what he did when he was cursed, though, and oh man, he just wants to crawl into a hole. Turning a nice shade of red, he rubs the back of his neck.]

Can we... talk? About, you know, when I was a knight and I asked you to try that glass shoe on?

[Okay. There. He's been putting it off for so long, but now he's finally made the call. Now if he can just get his mind off it while he's waiting...

Oh, hey, he can call Zelos. The blush fades in favor of a very shameless grin.

Nope, still no successful filter.]

Zelos! How are you doing? You're not still a unicorn, are you?

[There's a completely intentional feed coming on the network now, and Minene's looking at the mug that's now in her hands.]

A mug, huh? After all this...you gave us a damn mug?

[Oh. Oops. She stands up, bringing her arm back and throwing it as hard as she could at the wall. The mug shattered to a million satisfying pieces, and she smirked at the SFC as if she was proud.]

Here's what I think about your mug, Vatheon! This is my thanks to you!

[She's laughing as she turns off the feed.]

2nd Diary Entry [Accidental Video]

[ When the video feed clicked on, only the slight outlook of the color red could be made out in the darkness. It was quiet at first, but after a moment the silence broke free to a moan- a yawn almost. It was tiny, and as eyes began to adjust to the dim lighting, something caught Yukiteru’s eye- ]

Good morning Yukki!

[Next to the bed but offscreen a voice was heard. It was clearly close, though, since it was very audible from the SFC on the side table.

The boy jolts up when hearing the voice, and as his vision becomes more clear, the image of “Yuno” causes a small gasp from the back of this throat. ]

Who... what are you-!?

Hm? What do you mean Yukki? It’s me, Yuno!

[ fjdbsg he’s scrambling out of bed now, the look of fright glued to his features.
His eyes couldn’t escape looking at one thing in particular- a thing that became apparent on the video feed as ‘Yuno’ moved closer and into the frame. She was a wolf, a pink wolf at that, and her smile aimed towards him was revealing a pair of large and sharp teeth to the boy. ]

Yuno? But- [ A beat, no she couldn’t be- ] - what big teeth you have!

O-Oh...that’s sort of rude to say, Yukki. I know I’m not as cute as usual but you don’t have to make fun of me...you on the other hand look good in that red hood you have on!

[ A blink. He’s slowly drawing his attention downward to- yup. Those weren’t his clothes. ] Eh!? What is this, I don’t remember putting this on-! Why do we look like this?

It appears we’re under another one of Vatheon’s curses! [She didn’t really say much else. Yuno sort of....forgot Yukki didn’t know about the curses oops.. ]

Vatheon’s... curses? [ What oh my gawd they had curses here his life. ] What exactly is that suppose to mean?

Oh! Right, you weren’t here for that, Yukki! [ For some reason she looked happy still even while talking about curses. She wasn’t even apparently phased by the fact she was a wolf now... ] These curses just happen randomly from what I was told, but they are always different. Last one that I experienced, it was causing people to...tell their secrets.

Mostly embarrassing ones, but I didn’t have much of those... [ Even if she did, she mostly only got responses from people that weren’t even helpful. Like a certain ugly purple-haired terrorist and a sorta-blind girl who was supposed to be dead... ]

[ Wow okay the curses still didn’t make a whole lot of sense, thus the unsure faces crybaby riding hood will give you. Though in the process of such, Yukki finally realizes that the SFC had been switched on somehow. Cue the sudden embarrassment as he quickly reaches over and shuts off the feed.

Click! ]

[ OOC: Alright, so Yuno is pink and Yukki is in blue! Replies will come from both or just one- whichever! ]

Video || I'm aliiiiive ♪

[The scene on the feed encompasses a large meadow, flowers all around and petals wafting gently through the breeze, and in the middle of it all stands a majestic, ruby-red maned unicorn with a long graceful horn that seems to be glowing as she uses her magic to keep the SFC aloft in order to record. Or, y'know, just a pretty, apparently magic horse if your character can't see unicorns. Her voice is low and musical and seems to simply radiate from the SFC speaker without first passing through her mouth.]

Pray tell, has anyone made any progress on this princess rescuing thing? The illusions seem to be gone from the meadow but I dunno about anywhere else and by the looks of things, this curse is going to get worse before it gets better.

[She shakes her head, mane glinting coppery in the sunlight, and stamps a hoof into the ground irritably.]

I mean, I'm using words like "pray tell" and "forsooth". This is ridiculous.

Video || They Call Me Doctor Love

[Cue Zelos, sitting on the end of his large bed, a vase of roses to his right on the nightstand and a candle burning behind to his left.]

So, ladies and gentlemen of Vatheon, it has come to my attention due to the upswing of network posts having to do with romance that a lot of you are in the need of advice; maybe a guiding hand in your love lives from someone with more experience with the fairer sex, or at a loss for what your man expects during this time of year.

[He sits back a bit, steepling his fingers with a grin at the camera.]

Fear not Vatheonites! You've got none other than the Great Zelos Wilder here to dole out advice on anything and everything pertaining to the romantic arts~❤ Don't worry hunnys, your secrets are safe with me~ All comments are filtered so no one'll be the wiser.

[He winks seductively into the feed.]

Don't be shy~ With a little help from me, this could be your best valentine's ever.

[And now to wait for the responses of those seeking his expertise.]

1st Diary Entry [Video]

Huh—

[ Sup Vatheon? Having fun with all these new wet people? Well, you've now got one more person to cater to their confused desires.

Yukiteru arrived in the normal way- wet, confused. Yet aside from this initial first reaction, he seems a little worn out. With shoulders shrugged and visible shaking becoming more evident the closer one should squint.

But never fear, he's alive! Or at least... he hopes so. From what the boy could remember from being thrown off a ledge, he could have possibly been killed. But no, that couldn't happen, could it? So with a blink he'll finally get the motivation to sit up- a little awkwardly at first- before that familiar crease of a frown appears.

Welp, he doesn't recognize this place at all... ]

This has a camera? [ Guess who just found the communication device? His frown deepens as he peers into the screen; gently wiping some of the wet bangs away from curious eyes. Brb, casting a glance aside as if he is looking- checking something, in fact. The sound of a cellphone button is heard.

The boy's voice drops. ] H- hello? Can anyone tell me where I am? If... anyone can hear me.

[ Help the poor, distressed child? ]

1st Combo - [video]

[The video comes on in a jolt of motion, which stills to a skewed image of pavement, buildings, and a soaking wet teenage boy clad in red and black lying on the ground. He winces as though he'd just hit the ground. Hard.]

Oww...

[Pushing himself up off the ground, he rubs his head.]

Is everyone all...

[Wait. Something's wrong. He looks around the plaza with clearly growing alarm, but still not at the SFC.]

Guys? Where is everyone?

[And where in the world is he?!]

[Hello, Vatheon, did you miss him? Of course you did. Everyone needs a slightly jerky PokeRival-Friend-Thing in their lives. Unfortunately, this PokeRival-Friend-Thing isn't looking too pleased at the moment. The reason for that is this whole exploding fairy nonsense, since you know, exploding fairies getting all over you isn't really a pleasant thing.]

That's certainly a new way to welcome people back, Vatheon. Can't say I really appreciate it all that much, either. At the very least, going by everyone else's reactions, this hardly seems like it was an isolated incident, but whether that's a good thing or a bad thing, I'm not sure.

[he frowns at the camera again, because ew, thinking about fairies exploding and what might happen isn't really something nice and happy. And it puts people in bad moods.]

Have there been any other exploding creatures or ominous happenstances recently that I should know about? Because aside from this fairy business, Vatheon looks pretty much the same as I remember. [...] But with a place like this, there really isn't any way to be sure, is there?
