[The mognet post is titled 'Literature Club!']

Hi everyone, it's me, Sayori! I've been wanting to set up something fun for everyone, and I thought, what better way than to have a Literature Club meeting! I dunno if Monika had done one here before, but she was the president of the Club back home -- I was the vice president.

All you have to do is bring one piece of literature - a book, a comic, anything! And if you don't have anything to bring, that's okay too! You can read off of someone else's. And be sure to bring a poem to share with everyone, too! That's half the fun!

It'll be ten days from now! Over where I live -- B-10! If you have any questions, I'm always available!

See you all there, I hope!

[Thankfully, text makes it easier for her to not have to show her emotions. She and others are probably aware that Monika's gone, after all.]

To heck with it. As long as we're doing this, anyone wanna try our luck against some hamsters?

[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.]

( Here we go... )

Dante, this is stupid, even for you.

Just hold the slate for me, alright? It's important.

(The video feed opens up with a familiar zora and his moogle coming to the end of their bickering and finally focusing on the zora himself. He greets his viewers with a fistpump and a proud grin.)

Hey! For anyone who doesn't know me, I'm Dante. For everyone who does, then...hey! You guys probably know me from the Curti Center or a slew of adventures across Vaikuntha. Things have been pretty busy lately, huh? Can't say I know more about it than any of you, but something's been bothering me lately. Might be more of a personal thing or one too many shifts at the center. Can't say. Anyway, here's the deal.

(The zora gestures for his moogle to focus the video feed down at the table before him, looking over a diorama of a city the length of the table. On one end is a tower, another a small office with a statue of a man who looks mildly familiar.)

So in these dreams, this is me. Crazy, right? Still don't wear a shirt, but I can respect that. I'm just chillin' and doin' my thing when BAM!

(A small collection of scary reaper looking dudes is dropped into the office, surrounding the red coated man.)

All these guys start swarming the place! I'm taking hits like a champ and dealing it right back to 'em. And it's real stylish and smooth.

(Cue a few moments of a fully grown man playing with dolls over a broadcast. It clearly looks a lot cooler in his head.)

So I deal with these guys, right? And it's happening 'til I get all the way here, when I gotta deal with this guy!

(Improvised noises of a large creature dropping in is paired with a matching figurine of a ice-based three headed dog standing in the man's way.)

So we fight and, of course, I win, and some pretty other cool stuff happens that I can't remember right now. See, it's a weird situation right now that I can't really piece together, but I got an idea that might help with that. Hear me out here:

The Monster Arena

I'm thinking if I deal with some of these creeps myself, it might help paint a clearer picture in my head. A real hands-on experience, you know? Course, I'mma need a little help to get through it, so anyone's itching to fight some of these guys or do me a favor, I'm open for business. I'm cooking for anyone who joins in, don't you worry.

[The name of the poster is replaced with "ANONYMOUS" and the icon changed to a grey silhouette of a generic person. A series of pictures are posted: pins and lapels, some that are obviously fashioned from bottlecaps, some made of bent wire, all of the polished. Some are discarded ornaments and pieces of furniture, now repurposed.]

PINS FOR SALE

i made these out of scrap metal i picked up

The letter that I was hired to deliver had

change of addresses and I've now crossed half of the back of beyond.

Why is working as a half-elven postmoogle like this?

[ 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. ]

[ The video clicks on and... who is that!? That one lady who didn't know how to type! Where did she learn how to press the video button?

Ena sits primly at a table, her moogle hovering over her shoulder, and kitchen in the background that is clearly that of the standard houses in the Curti Center. There's a calm archaic smile on her face, the confident air around her doesn't feel at all rehearsed, but natural. ]

Greetings, fellow outworlders.

It has come to my attention that it is soon time for those of us who first arrived in the spring to find our own accommodation elsewhere, outside of the Curti Center.

Purchasing a house is no easy task. I know some of you have moved out already, and I commend you for taking initiative and not waiting until the last moment. [ :smile: ] So for those of you who've already done it, I am very much interested to know what sort of house you've purchased, and I have some questions. [ She spreads out one of her folded hands and taps the tip of each finger with each question. ] Where did you decide to relocate to, and did your employment or education have any influence on this decision? How big is your house, and do you live with others? And most importantly, how much did you pay, or are you paying?

...Additionally, [ she holds up a finger ] I understand some of you may be feeling some anxiety about the upcoming state dinner with Sen Devadatta. Fortunately, navigating the intricacies of such events is where I was born and bred, so I would be more than happy to answer some of your questions should you have any... if you need incentive to provide housing information, of course. [ Haha... But no, seriously. Help. ]

Thank you, and I eagerly await your responses. [ And she won't tell anyone that she has no idea what she's doing. ]

[ ooc: feel free to show off pics of what your character's house/apartment/shack looks like! ]

[Okuyasu shrugged off the new theme on his Slate because he has far more important things to talk about today. After dragging the motorcycle he found in the Dream Width outside his house and propping it up, he begins filming.

It's shaky, as he hasn't a lot of practice with recording videos, but it's clear as day - a dark purple motorcycle, looking a bit banged up but generally good as new.]

Heeey, this is Okuyasu! I found my motorcycle out in space, and I need someone to fix it up so I can ride on it here. I think there's some weird fuel on this planet, and I--

What the hell?!

[It's about time he looked at the screen. The Starlight Celebration filters are somehow active all day, and the screen has been snowing the entire time he was talking. Just now, it transitions into Christmas lights decorating the frame.

The image blurs with Okuyasu shaking it and fiddling with the keyboard.]

How do you turn this off?!

piume

[ The feed starts with the image of a dark-haired young woman, brows furrowed in concentration as she seems to be fiddling with the slate. Following several seconds she pulls back, seemingly satisfied. ]

Steady… There, it’s started.

Hello everyone, I hope many of you are doing well. We are the employees of Curti Center charged with assisting outworlders and newcomers to Vaikuntha.

( Any questions? )

[Look, it's another blonde on the network. However, it was definitely a teenager, and beside him was perhaps the grumpiest Moogle to be seen. It doesn't take long for it to flutter out of view, glowering all the while. Either the boy wasn't bothered by it or just chose to ignore it as he smiled before slightly frowning.]

Hi...

I want to start by taking a moment to apologize. Normally, I'd make an effort to get to know everyone and I wanted to respond to more people on the network, but when we all arrived from the Dream Width, something pretty important to me didn't make it through. Biggs and Wedge managed to find it recently - thanks again by the way. Still, that doesn't excuse my behavior to some people so... I'm sorry about that.

[He nodded his head once and allowed for a beat of silence in which he rubbed the back of his head before recomposing himself]

Anyway, my name's Adrien and I'm from Paris, France on Earth. Until recently, I was homeschooled and I still have a lot to learn when it comes to socializing outside of a fundraiser or a show. Aside from that, I've been tutored in other subjects like Chinese, piano, and fencing, the last I've applied to my asterisk. If you guys ever need a Swordmaster or Ninja, I'm totally up for lending a hand.

[He smiled wider.]

Thanks for your time and I'm looking forward to getting to know everyone.

[And with a wave, the video ended.]

Look, Mogload, we're live! Good! That's what I'm talkin' about.

[ Have a very close up shot of this gal right here, Hana. She grins at the camera and quickly seems to place the device somewhere on a desk in her room. Then she quickly rushes into her seat and points to the camera. ]

Hey gang! D.Va here. And I just wanted to drop in and see how everyone is holding up! We're quickly approaching living just a few weeks in this crazy new world. And did you see the other cities? Killer! I never even DREAMED of being in a world like this. It's like those fantasy games I used to play as a kid! So much life everywhere and different from home.

[ There's a pause as she frowns a bit looking off. ]

Kind of miss it, actually. I bet my subscribers at home would love this...

[ But now its back to the camera. ]

But lucky for you, now YOU'RE officially a new subscriber! That's right, I decided that even when I'm away from home it's my duty to make sure everyone sees I'm alive an' cookin'. No fees involved, all access and totally free! Anything for my new fans.

So how's it going, guys? Did you find any new places? Discover any spooky types? Or maybe there's a hunt or job you need me to do!

And me? What have I been up to? Well, you're looking at your brand new Cavalier! So, you know, if you need anything? Just give me a call! You won't regret bringing me around, I promise! Me and my new friend—I made a friend, see—we're gonna take the bad guys down! And the friend? They call them Chocobos! They're SO cute!

Anyway... [ She looks towards her door. She HAS been rather loud but no matter. ]

That's all I have tonight. Next time, we'll go live as I learn a bit more about my new abilities. Easy peasy, nothing I'm not familiar with! Oh, and we're gonna talk about my M-E-K-A because I'm going to get it back one way or another! It's out there somewhere! And I'm going to bring her home!

Hope you're ready for me—winky face! [ And of course an actual wink. ]

See ya next time!

Love, D.Va!

[ The screen blips on to Hunk, reclined across a couch. Balmogra the moogle's pom-pom occasionally drifts into the top of the frame, and Hunk's eyes keep glancing towards it. As he starts talking, he's entirely oblivious to the fact that his voice is high-pitched and squeaky. ]

Hey, so with other people asking about things like our stories, our worlds, and our jobs, I realized that we don't actually know a lot about what we can all do! Like... I learned that some people have never been grocery shopping before! Or some can't cook! Or some people don't know how technology here works. Since we're all stuck here, we might as well try to help each other out, right? So what are some things you know or want to know?

Me, I know about cooking and engineering and mechanics. But I don't know anything about magic. Or how to defend yourself from a monster that's up close and trying to eat you. Or how to use a giant fork in a fight? Or why they use forks here to begin with.

[ He pauses for a moment, looking almost uncomfortable, and then- ]

And if you're embarrassed to say something you can't do, you can always send it to me and I'll mention it for you!

( This is super open and threadjacking is possible and totally okay! )

[Okuyasu opts for a text message rather than a video as 1) it's kind of easy to figure out after some practice - it's like a computer, only the keys don't get stuck and 2) he hopes fewer people will recognize him from the tiny icon.]

you know after the past few days i think im finally getting that this is all real
that im not dreaming that i woke up in outer space and went to a planet where magic is real
does that make sense?

i guess what im trying to say is i suddenly realize that i was sleeping in a real bed in a real house and ate real food
but at the same time i cant completely accept it yet
and its confusing

i know it sounds pretty dumb but thats how I feel
