Right.

[Alec appears in front of the camera with an enormous rack, antlers, that is. And while they aren't out of proportion exactly (well as in proportion as they can be to an otherwise human head) it would make a stag take a second look]

I've had these bloody things a month or more. [and it wasn't the only thing he had, but he wasn't talking about the rest of it.]

That thing is no help. [he jerked his thumb at the spectral whippet shaped grim gnawing on a squeaky toy that looked like a strangled chicken]

If anyone has any suggestion on how to get them to go away, I'd appreciate it. Anything short of a saw. I've tried meditation-- I've tried sleeping more. [though he'd failed at both. Probably because of the damned antlers]

I'm out of ideas.

And I think I've got something else now. Magic I mean. How the hell do you lot handle all this? I just want to go home and read a book for God's sake.

[though which home he really didn't want to think too hard about]

[also he hopes no one notices the user name as he didn't notice it until it was too late to do anything about it]

I hate being sick.

[Whooo, boy, yep, that is a stuffy, stuffy nose kind a voice, bassier and more gravelly than the last time Shiro was on the Network.]

Can I ask you guys to talk to me? Text, voice, whatever. I am bored already and it hasn't even been four hours yet.

Tell me about... your familiar. Or your favorite food. Or the place on the island you think everyone should see. Tell meeeeee... if you had any pets before this. Or if you have any now! People have dogs here, right? Maybe cats too? I dunno, I haven't gone looking for pet stores. Figure I have to be able to support one first, and I'm guessing the inn doesn't really do pets.

Oh! Um, could someone do an errand for me? I wanted to go to the store and get some, like. Soup, or microwave food or something for me and my new roommate. I c'n transfer you the money, don't worry about that. Yusuke and Shinryu have just forbidden me to get out of bed.

[Oda has ALL the questions. He's not sure whether a written list or just pure babbling is better!]

[No one else is making formal introductions on the network, but it does FEEL wrong!]

[Like the wearing shoes inside thing!]

[Finally he settles on video so he can start off with a haughty bow. How do you stay arrogant while bowing? THIS GUY!]


I'm Oda Nobunaga, Demon King of the 6th Heaven! I have some questions for all of you:

[How ominous!]

What is your favorite piece of technology from home or here?
What are the best well-known sports of your time? Does anyone sumo wrestle? Is shooting guns a sport yet? Can I place bets on Mitsuhide out-shooting everyone else?
What are your thoughts on the government here and at home?
What is the candy like where you're from, and have you tried new ones here, how is it?
What jobs did you have in your world? Do they transition well to Avalon?
What is the weirdest law, either here or from your world you know of?
What is the weirdest thing to you about this place? -- For me, it's that there are restaurants indoors that don't make you remove your shoes!
Does anyone play Go? Is anyone willing to learn? Can someone please teach me cards?
Does anyone come from a time that still uses caste systems, and for everyone that doesn't; how were they abolished?
What is your favorite music, song, and dance of this world or your own?
Does anyone else have an oni or kitsune familiar? How many people even know what those are? And how many people come from worlds that had them for real?
What's the weirdest and cutest animal you've ever seen? Was it here or somewhere else?
What is considered a luxury in your world, and do you indulge, abstain, or simply have different preferences?
Have you ever had konpeito?

[He doesn't seem to run out of breath OR questions. So the network is just rescued when the post times out and automatically posts it.]
