Given our current situation, I have taken the opportunity to study these "Calamity" creatures that appear in the last few days before the reset. It would seem that there is more to learn from this mutation process, and from what I've studied, I have reason to believe it behaves along the lines of what most of you organic life-forms would call a "disease process."

For those of you I haven't met yet— my name is Rutile. I am a doctor working out of Arito.

While this information may be helpful, it is unfortunately, useless unless we can make something out of it. Even though it has been a few times now, even without sleeping two to three days is not enough for me to be able to come up with some sort of vaccine myself, therefore... I am looking for individuals who take an interest in this sort of thing, or may have knowledge to share on the subject— so that we might come together in an attempt to come up with a solution.

I realize that there are some of you who are much more adept to dealing with the nature of biology and organic life than I am despite my studies since coming here, and your experience would be invaluable. Even the study of the animals at the reserve may be more helpful than we realize.

I will remain at the hospital in Arito at work should anyone be looking for me, with all lines of communication open. Perhaps together we may be able to find a cure

[Megatron is seated at a table across from the camera, fingers steepled in front of his face. A pair of sunglasses and a turtleneck sweater and he'd be Gendou Ikari.]

I have an update on one of the many fires we need to put out and a request for assistance in doing so. Captain Gaator and his men are lost, or will be lost again in the Unknown Territories after help from Armstrong Fort is cut off. Without assistance, these men will die out there. I will not allow that to happen.

In the last loop I attempted to use some cobbled together communications equipment to reach out to them after they became lost. The signal was too weak to send them a message of hope, that rescue was on the way...which it wasn't. They all froze to death before I could pinpoint their exact location and organize a rescue.

Fortunately, the data I did recover was helpful in tracking their movements and I now believe a rescue attempt could be attempted before the first deaths occur. I will require someone with an airship and a communication system strong enough to reach Captain Gaator. The plan is that I will send them a message telling them they have not been forgotten and not to lose hope; help is on the way. The airship will be used for collection and evac. I will be on hand to administer medical attention to any who need it; however, if there are other medical professionals here-and I know that there are-assistance in this matter would be appreciated lest I run the risk of being overwhelmed. Though if we reach them soon enough, that will hopefully not be an issue.

Please respond to this message if you think you will be able to help in any regard. You have my thanks.

[Megatron starts to stand up, but then pauses.]. Oh, and Starscream? [He looks at the camera.] Thank you for volunteering to be my nurse for this expedition. I can already hear you arguing from here, so please don't bother.

You know why. That will be all, Mogatronus.

[From off-camera, which shakes.] I'm not sure how he knows all this myself, I haven't seen him do any of it! You ask me the only loops around here are the Froot Loops in that bucket of his!

...Thank you, Mogatronus, that will be all.

[This message pops up on a new linkshell: The Secret Party Of Coolitude Linkshell... which essentially contains everyone in the main Kali Shashidhwaja linkshell, barring Frisk.bin.

At any rate, here we have Papyrus, leaning in with shifty eye sockets and whispering.]


PSSST. PSSSSST!!! I, THE GREAT PAPYRUS, HAVE VERY IMPORTANT NEWS TO SHARE!

NAMELY, THE ARRIVAL OF FRISK'S THIRTEENTH BIRTHDAY! AT LEAST, I THINK IT'S THEIR THIRTEENTH. ALSO, IT'S THE FRISK WHO WEARS GLASSES AND IS VERY SASSY. MY FRISK.


[He pauses, realizing that may have sounded a little weird.]

POINT BEING, THEY ARE ASCENDING FROM THE REALM OF TWEEN INTO THE GLORIOUS REAM OF TEENAGERISM! THUS, I, THE GREAT PAPYRUS, HUMBLY SEEK YOUR HELP AND GUIDANCE IN PREPARING THE ULTIMATE CELEBRATION.

IT DOESN'T MATTER IF YOU KNOW THEM YET! THERE'S A FIRST TIME FOR EVERYTHING, AND THE MORE FRIENDS, THE BETTER! WE SHALL PARTAKE IN THE GLORIOUS MERRIMENT. POSSIBLY WITH PIZZA? I THINK TEENS LIKE PIZZA. BUT IF ANYONE ELSE HAS OTHER TEEN-TYPE FOOD SUGGESTIONS FOR HUMANS, DO LET ME KNOW!

I REALIZE SPIKE PUZZLES ARE AN ACQUIRED TASTE.

[This stage is familiar, but the decor is the beginning of a passionate spring, roses of red and white gabbled with bits of pink tucked in here and there. The statues are dressed in crowns of bright flowers, and the little cherubs are extra polished today to really stand out.

The music is, in short, appropriate thanks to the in-house band. Orchestral sweeps are joined by the petite horned woman twirling into the frame wrapped in a vintage white dress decorated in hearts. She then stood at attention, clicking her t-strap heels. She wore a pair of tiny white wings on her back, and gave a prop heart-topped scepter that looked better-suited in the hands of a magical girl a twirl.]

GREETINGS, EVERYONE!!! I, THE GREAT PAPYRUS, HAVE FINALIZED THE MATTER OF THE I.B. MAGITEK TOWER! WE HAVE GOTTEN THE ALL CLEAR TO INVESTIGATE FOR THE TEMPLE OF ASURA, SO LONG AS WE SIGN THE NECESSARY WAIVERS.

I'VE A SET DATE FOR JANUARY SEVENTH FOR EVERYONE WHO'D LIKE TO JOIN THE CAUSE!

ADDITIONALLY, I HEARD FROM URSULA THAT THE DEEP CLOUD OBSERVATORY MAY HOLD THE SECRET TO ZODIARK'S TEMPLE. WHICH MEANS WE MAY HAVE SOLVED THE PUZZLE OF THE FINAL TEMPLE LOCATION! WOWIE!!!

JUST THINK! WE'RE SO CLOSE TO PULLING THIS OFF!


[He could leave it at that, but at the same time...]

WE JUST NEED TO CONSIDER... CERTAIN OTHER STEPS REQUIRED TO CHANGE THE WORLD FOR THE BETTER. KEEPING IT VAGUE JUST TO BE SAFE. BUT I'M SURE MOST OF YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN.

ANYWAY! LET'S LOOK FORWARD TO A GRAND ADVENTURE! NEW SECRETS UNCOVERED! THRILLING CHALLENGES! PERHAPS EVEN SOME PERPLEXING PUZZLES...

GREETINGS, EVERYONE! I HOPE THE HOLIDAY FESTIVITIES HAVE BEEN TREATING YOU WELL. WE'VE CERTAINLY HAD OUR HANDS FULL OF LATE, BUT I SUPPOSE A LITTLE DOWNTIME EVERY NOW AND THEN ISN'T SO BAD.

REGARDLESS, I HAVE SOME VERY IMPORTANT NEWS TO SHARE! YOU SEE, DURING THE EXPLORATION AT THE CRYSTAL TEMPLE, WE UNCOVERED A CRITICAL HINT TOWARD THE OTHER GREAT EIDOLONS...


[He pauses in order to attach an image provided by Regis- namely, a map that reveals some juicy details.

To the west, the Crystal Temple, marked as the Temple of Bahamut. Where the Great McGard Library stands, the Temple of Alexander. Mad'ni Shrine, as they discovered before, holds the Temple of Phoenix, while the I.B Tower's location holds the Temple of Asura. Perhaps most intriguing is an island out in the sea, directly below where Cloud City now floats. The island itself is not upon any modern Vaikunthan maps.

He lets the image linger before returning into view.]


AS YOU CAN SEE, WE HAVE LOCATIONS FOR THE REMAINING TEMPLES! I'VE ALREADY REACHED OUT TO THE TRIUMVIRAT TO SEE IF THEY HAVE ANY INFORMATION ON THE I.B TOWER, BUT PERHAPS WE COULD ALL BAND TOGETHER TO INVESTIGATE THESE SPOTS AS WELL AS THE EVER ELUSIVE SUMMONER.

I'D LOVE TO HEAR YOUR THOUGHTS! IN FACT, LET'S USE THIS POST TO DISCUSS AND PLAN OUR NEXT MOVE. AFTER ALL, WE'RE ALL IN THIS TOGETHER!


[Shortly after the message goes up, Papyrus adds a text addendum:]

IMPORTANT UPDATE!!! I'VE JUST GOTTEN PERMISSION FROM THE TRIUMVIRAT TO EXPLORE THE AREA BENEATH THE MAGITEK TOWER!

THEY GAVE VERY STRICT CONDITIONS, HOWEVER: NAMELY, THAT WE NOT STEAL THEIR RESEARCH OR VENTURE INTO RESTRICTED ZONES. SO THAT'S A WONDERFUL OPPORTUNITY THAT I THINK WE SHOULD CONSIDER!!!


[ooc: Feel free to threadjack and talk amongst yourselves, too! Papyrus will gladly respond, but this seems like the kinda thing to merit an open discussion as well.]

Is there a list anywhere, or notices or a book or message board or something that one might peruse to find out what they've missed over the past couple of months? Has any progress been made on figuring out what to do about the pending world-ending problem?

[When the video begins, Red's already slumped back into the pilot's seat of his airship, his weary posture and tired limbs looking like they'd already long-since given out on him. He's breathless and panting- and not even in a particularly dog-like way- while sweat somehow manages to run off of his fur. Or is that just water? It'd explain why he was in his blitzball outfit. And all those bruises.

And yet, somehow, his face is the biggest, toothiest smile most people would ever have seen from him.]


..I... did it.

[He pauses, reaching beside him to grab a hold of a metallic water bottle with an oddly familiar logo on it, and ravenously gulps from it a few times between heaving breaths before using the rest to douse himself.

A few seconds of a more familiar canine head-shaking, water-flinging dryoff later- and a quiet ugh from the offscreen moogle- he catches his breath enough to continue.]


Starting lineup. Dragons. Cloud City.

[...and then, as if he suddenly remembered he was actually broadcasting this--]

Uh-- I'm Red. I play Blitzball. For the Cloud City Dragons. It's a great sport. Come watch me sometime. ...cause I just got promoted!!

[He manages a fistbump for a few seconds before his fist quivers, and with a weak groan his arm soon goes limp. Yup. That muscle was probably pulled.]

...So yeah. Tryin' to think of how I should celebrate. Any ideas?

[Camera... on! After a quick scrutinizing, the figure pulled back. It's a reindeer! No, it's some dude dressed like a reindeer, complete with the antlers and ears, a spiky black collar and silver bell, and a glowing red nose. But rather than be embarrassed about everything, this awful reindeer gave a fist pump and a grin.

Squint a bit. Oh god, it's Kanji.]



Sup!? I just finished the costumes this morning and I'm cute as hell! Anyway, I wanted to put somethin' up too: I'm takin' commissions for Christmas or Starlight or whatever! I can put together job outfits, mittens n' hats n' scarves or whatever to keep somebody warm, stitch up or knit a doll and anything else that needs a bit of handicraft! If you ain't sure if I can make it, lemme know here or on my linkshell and I can give a yes or no. The link to it's gonna be attached to the message.

[And it sure is. But Kanji glances off screen, nods, and waits a moment. He was waving somebody over, but he didn't seem successful. He looked back to the camera.]

A'right, and for those of ya on the more tech-y side of things, I got my best pal who's pretty badass with screwdrivers n' wrenches n' stuff. If it can be tinkered, if it can be upgraded and modded with cool lasers and shit, they're the one to go to. I'll forward linkshell messages her way!

Here: A, uh... sample. [He reached under the desk and pulled up what appeared to be a small yellow carbuncle doll. But the moment he set it down and gave the brass key in its back a few good turns, the doll came 'alive' and began to hop and explore.]

There. Wind-up pets! With all that aside, if you guys get orders n' shit in before the end of the week, I can get it out to ya by Christmas-Starlight.

But most importantly...! A'right, ready?

[He looked off-camera. Then he nodded, stepped to the side and stooped. There's a squeak of surprise, and when Kanji's back in frame he's got another reindeer on his shoulder, dressed with a gold bell and a snappy necktie of holly. This reindeer is fighting to keep her composure. Did she lose a bet? But the bigger reindeer flexes his free arm, and the smaller one hesitantly follows suit.]

...All orders'll be delivered by reindeer! For the spirit of things, yeah?

[It's the interior of a theater, THE theater, decked from top to bottom in shiny tinsel, balls and snowflakes. The statues have been given comfy scarves and they hold strings of fresh green garland, and the room has some sort of added sparkle one can't deny. There's a slow sweep of the chamber in all its grandeur before its placed somewhere to rest, facing an unoccupied piano upon the stage.

Until the music starts from off-camera. Hopping to have a seat atop the piano was a familiar tiefling dressed for the occasion: Little red dress with white trim, black corset belt, black boots, red satin gloves to the elbows and that feathered cap replaced wholesale for the signature red hat with a fluffy white end. With a cheeky little grin, her black tail gave a little shake, jingling the sleigh bells tied to the end with a red bow.]


'Tis the season, dears! It may be deathly cold outside and doubly deathly in just a few months, but it's oh so warm in here. Here in lovely Sparks Golsaucia, we at the Lady of Bliss have been angels all year, and have cooked up a few wonderful surprises just for you:

-Our Friday Night Burlesque has taken on a holiday flair! Come and sip on a little eggnog and enjoy some song, dance, and a few little winks and nudges. Tuck the kiddies to bed and swing on by on any old Friday night through December~

-On Saturdays the 8th and the 22nd, we have a wonderful tale of the Nutcracker, grand for audiences of all ages! Enjoy a tale of magic, music, and sweets!

-On Saturdays the 15th and 29th, our very own Adrien Agreste- with hair and heart of gold- will be heading a magnificent Holiday Concerto. Let his music fill you with just that extra cup of cheer!

Ahh, but that's only what's new! The Lady of Bliss would be happy to provide a platform for all you singers, dancers, musicians, and comedians alike! Why, if you've got a story burning at your heart and you wish to make it known, then here's the place to do it!

For instance, our very own Kuja is working on an upcoming tragedy in three acts! All you performers and would-be stars out there are invited to come and audition for all roles from the 3rd to the 9th. That's two whole days from now! Warm up your vocal cords and all those dancing muscles, and come show us what you're made of. What's it about? Ohh, but that's telling. Dear Kuja would be happy to fill you in when you come to audition. Don't be shy!

Now, carry on with your weekends, your naughty or nice deeds! Don't let me hold you. Shoo!

[ It takes her a couple days to work herself up to this. Throwing out her notes to the void was one thing. Now she's... actually trying to make this into something for others to use. And all of the spotlight that puts her in. ]

So.

My name is Futaba Sakura and some of you may have seen the notes that I made before about Vaikuntha and stuff we're looking into or finding out about while here. After the past couple months, we've gotten... a lot of new stuff. And we have the whole Bahamut thing to worry about to.

So I rewrote my notes, from scratch. They're actually meant to be read now too. I'm attaching them here.

file:vaikunthanotesmk3

Just so we're clear though I'm a gathers-info person, not a tells-people-what-to-do person. I'm looking into some stuff too on my own but I'm just one person. If you guys see something you want to start investigating, you don't need my permission or anything. Just do it, and share what you find. Or if somebody wants to take charge of trying to organize others, go on ahead.

If you have any questions though I can... try to answer them? Others can too, if they know something.

So... I guess that's it!

[ There's a bit of fumbling before the video feed finally turns on. Standing in front of the camera, slightly off center and clearly not looking at the right place is a bespectacled woman dressed like a witch, which despite the time of year, isn't a costume. Off camera is the voice of a female moogle, her tone bright and warm. ]

*Alright Miss Ursula! You're recording now!*

Oh? W-wait, really? H-hold on, I uh... [ The woman suddenly balks, her glasses slipping slightly as she fumbles about off screen before finally grabbing some notes. ]

Um. Hello to, uh. Everyone, I guess. My name is Ursula Callistis, I'm a professor of astrology at Luna Nova Academy, which is. Well. Not here, but I'm so used to including that in introductions that I'm not sure what else to say...

*Um. Your notes, Miss Ursula.*

Oh! [ Ursula jumps, as if she'd forgotten she was even holding them ] Right!

Um, first thing's first, I've been assigned housing in B-03 so uh... [ Ursula adjusts her glasses, peering at the paper ]

Legault [ Said with a distinctly more French prenounciation ]
and... More Ag? Morag? Moe Rahg? Am I pronouncing that right?

Um, I guess... we're roomies now? This is awkward.

*Just keep going, Miss Ursula, you're doing fine!*

[ The woman lets out a sigh. ] Alright, uh. Next thing.

I've taken up the, erm, 'jobs' of Astrologian and Black Mage, since my first thought arriving here was to study as much about this world's magic as I can. But to do that, I'm going to need to head to the guilds for these 'jobs'. So if there is anyone willing to escort me to Cloud City and Kiddilion, I'd really appreciate it.

[ Another sigh, Ursula adjusts her glasses and her look goes from awkward and worried to something a little... harder to read ]

I know this is a lot to ask all of the sudden for someone just arriving, especially when everyone seems to be anxious about what's going to happen, but I also can't just sit idly by and let things happen around me and let other people figure things out.

I want to help. This is the only way I know now. So I guess, um... Help me help you? Does that make any sense?

*I think it does, Miss Ursula! You did an excellent job, congratulations!*

Thanks Ben'. Mornin'! Hope I'm not wakin' any of ye, but nows as good a time as any I suppose.

Phoenix an' whatnot.

At any rate, I'm plannin' on taking a look in the Sakura Forest, up by Von Oktavia. Stories say an Eidolon makes 'is home there an' I figured it's as good a place as any te start lookin.

There's some big new project goin' up by Curti Center, right? Well, back at the festival, I got talkin' with the guy that's settin' all that up. And I don't think he'd mind if I drummed up a li'l excitement in the meantime.

[His usual toothy grin quickly returns to his face.]

Two words: Monster Arena. Go ahead and think back to the biggest, greatest monsters you've gone up against, here or back home-- and keep those memories fresh, 'cause apparently that's what they're gonna be usin' to make the battles! I didn't know we even had that kinda tech here in Vaikuntha...

Now, I know not everyone here enjoys gettin' their hands dirty, but for those of you who do-- Got any awesome fights or big beasties you wouldn't mind givin' another go? I'm sure some of us might get some useful trainin' and experience out of it.

Oh, and speakin' of...

[He tips the camera over to his face, with a focused stare and a more personal and fond grin.]

Just in case anyone was concerned... Futaba Sakura is, well— sleeping. I know that she's made quite a few friendships since arriving here in Vaikuntha, on top of all the information she's been archiving for all of us otherworlders, so... I don't think she would want any of you to worry if you've noticed her absence over the past few days.

It's sort of like— needing to recharge her batteries. It might last days or weeks depending on how much rest she needs, but this is just the norm. She wanted to make sure that anyone who might be anxious about disappearances knew that she was still here and not— gone, since it seems like that's happened to us again recently with some familiar faces.

If there's any message you'd like to pass a long for when she wakes up, feel free to leave it with me. If we haven't met yet, call me Ren.

Alternatively, you know... press "F" to pay respects.

What makes an Empire evil or bad?

The definition is simply that it's ruled by one person, but nowhere does it state that it's also inherently bad.

So, what makes it bad?

Why are we assuming Sen Devadatta is evil when from what I've read in the history books and from the locals, all they did was shut their doors. We don't know the reason yet either.

It's understandable to be wary and suspicious, but I don't think it's a good idea to go in believing we're going to be arrested or worse.

Out of curiosity, what does everyone think of this invitation to the Empire? (Also what does someone wear to those kinds of things?)

Found something interesting in the 'Width. Be visiting soon.

[Ah... This is a bit awkward. When the video feed begins, Papyrus fidgets slightly, though he tries to at least hold a smile.]

GREETINGS, MOGNET! IT IS I, YOUR VERY SAFE AND NON-THREATENING SKELETON, THE GREAT PAPYRUS!!!

[Always good to emphasize that for anyone who hasn't seen him wandering around. Just to be safe.]

ANYWAY, I. HAVE A QUESTION. WELL I GUESS IT MIGHT TURN OUT TO BE MULTIPLE QUESTIONS. BUT! FIRST!!! THERE IS A HUMAN NAMED FRISK. THEY ARE A VERY DEAR FRIEND OF MINE. THEY ALSO LOOK SOMETHING LIKE THIS...

[He pulls out a fairly accurate if somewhat rushed drawing of a kid with shoulder-length brown hair and a distinctly squinty expression- almost as if their eyes are closed.]

IF YOU SEE THEM, PLEASE TREAT THEM KINDLY! THEY'VE BEEN HAVING A... DIFFICULT TIME OF LATE.

[Awkward. Very awkward. No matter. Onto the meat of the subject.

There's a small pause before he clears his nonexistent throat.]


SO! ANYWAY. FRISK IS A VERY DEAR FRIEND, AND CURRENTLY THEY ARE IN MY CARE. NATURALLY, A SKELETON OF MY TALENTS IS MORE THAN WILLING TO RISE TO THE OCCASION AND PROVIDE FOR THEM! I AN AN EXPERT OF MANY THINGS. A VERY COOL DUDE WITH MANY SKILLS AND ALSO A MASTER AT THE ART OF FRIENDISM.

BUT... WELL. I'M NOT CLUELESS. I KNOW THAT TAKING CARE OF SOMEONE- EVEN SOMEONE AS CAPABLE AND CLEVER AS FRISK- IS. COMPLICATED. SO I SUPPOSE WHAT I WANT TO KNOW IS... WHAT IS THE BEST WAY TO BE A GOOD, RESPONSIBLE GUARDIAN TYPE PERSON? NOT THEIR DAD BECAUSE THEY ALREADY HAVE A MONSTER DAD WHO IS ALSO SANTA. AND I'M NOT THAT MUCH OLDER THAN THEM, ANYWAY. BUT THEY'RE ALSO... I THINK THEY CALLED THEMSELF A TWEEN?

BUT REGARDLESS, THIS WORLD IS DIFFERENT. CERTAINLY MORE DANGEROUS, AND SINCE I'M TAKING CARE OF THEM, I JUST WANT TO MAKE SURE I DO ALL THE RIGHT THINGS.
