Hey there, Vaikuntha, it's [ya boy] Lance - I don't know many of you yet, but still, check this out.

[The camera, which had been focused on - well, some kid who has to be this Lance fellow - pans over and up. It focuses for a moment on a black, mechanical lion that dwarfs the house next to it. By now, it and the yellow one next to it are probably familiar landmarks to anyone passing through Arito.

But! That is not the point of this video, the point is in the next one the camera pans to, that Lance pats fondly. It's hard to tell that it's smaller than the other two by a significant amount, but the red one lies in a crumpled heap.]


Found Red and Green a little bit ago; thought I'd show off to anyone who hadn't seen any of 'em yet.

[He sounds...incredibly smug. And, yes, there's a fourth one, also laying in a heap.]

Currently working on a way to get them back up and running again. Black and Yellow have power, at least, but... [He pats the snout of the Red Lion again.] It'll be fine! Once we get them working, again, you guys are going to be in for a treat.

[That...might be a little worrisome. Hm.]

Shame we can't form Voltron, but...still! They're pretty cool, right?

[ Huh. Here is an unusual thing. Futaba is not usually one to use voice (or anything besides text) on the network. Maybe she wants to reassure other people with her voice and to hear theirs? Maybe it has something to do with the fact that her voice is still a bit muzzy with sleep. Maybe text requires more coordination than she has right now.

Either way, she's got an important post from her sort-of-brother to follow up on. ]


So.

[ There's a long, pregnant pause. ]

How many other memes are you all familiar with? Scientific curiosity.

[ She's been getting reputations up until now. The girl who gathers information. That one who really really mistrusts the Curti Center and is not afraid to be vocally critical of it. But it's past time she showed the world here who she truly is-

a shitposter. ]

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.

Eyyyyyy newbies. And I guess some older folks might care about this too.

First, this place still hasn't invented the actual internet yet so here's my bi-monthly copy of my notes on different things I've noticed and thought might be worth looking into:

If you're new this might help with some catch-up. Or something. Seemed like a good idea what with the fancy imperial meeting coming up. Feel free to mention anything that might need to be added. Or do some research into this stuff too. I wasn't able to poke around as much since I've had a few projects of my own to work on since last time.

Seriously though, please. We keep figuring out new things to ask questions about and while I'm used to digging through huge amounts of information looking for answers mostly by myself, it's not fun. And again. Other projects. Which also take time. How did I end up with so much stuff to do, anyway?

[ Futaba "that sounds like work" Sakura, everyone. ]

Anyway....

Now that that's out of the way it's time fooooor.....

Ashelia Watch 2kXX ☆.。.:*・°☆.。.:*・°☆.。.:*・°☆.。.:*・°☆

This one especially is going out to all you new guys that just got here! If you happen to see a little girl, around ten years old with blond hair who tells you to call her Ashelia, we're currently hoping to speak to you! And for any of you second wave people, if she spoke to you two months ago and you didn't say anything then, we still want to talk to you!

Seriously, she says weird and sometimes creepy stuff that seems like it could be important. You'll know if you've talked to her.


[ That just about covers things, she thinks. Except... one last note is tacked at the end, a bit more... lacking in false cheer and bravado that she's only been able to maintain thanks to text anyway. Bless text as a medium, seriously. ]

Oh right, one last thing. Hey Curti Center folks, did you and the moogles ever find out what's going on with these random disappearances? Asking for a friend.

[ She is, in fact, referring to this thing, which she always wondered about but uh. Between Morgana and Shiro and Hunk it's. Gotten a lot more relevant to her lately. ]
