Ah, yes. My favorite time of the day. The eerie dusk.

[It's probably not even dusk when he posts this, but the recent events have made it calamity dusk for a while... how joyous.]

They sure weren't kidding when they said Solstices are important. I wonder how we'll have to fix this one.

[They fix one thing and mess another. Story of their life.]

So...

Who wants to help me to arrange a birthday party for Jean? He'll be 18 on the 7th.


[He knows a lot of people though this is an open invitation to anyone who wants in on this whether they know him or not. She just figured this would be easier than trying to find everyone he's met... and yes, this post is absolutely filtered/locked from her fiancé.]

Greetings, all. Let me first say to all of those who took on my "quest" last month, you have my utmost gratitude. To those who were concerned about it, matters have been settled, and things are even between the two of us. I just wanted to get that swept away before I ask for advice here.
 
I am still trying to master Light Magic. For those unaware, this allows the user to disguise themselves with illusions. This isn't exactly unheard of in my realm, but more accustomed to those with dark magic... but that's neither here nor there. The point is, while I'm still trying to master illusions, I've discovered my struggles are actually with creativity. Just copying another's look won't do when I need to distract someone, or to have them focus their attention on anywhere but me.
 
So, in order to better practice my illusions, I ask this of you - what do you consider beautiful? Hideous? And what doesn't catch your attention at all? And yes, "beauty is in the eye of the beholder", but this is about practicality, not compliments about my good looks.

How many worlds do you think exist? Infinite? What about galaxies?

(Her Peko-Peko makes a soft sound, wings fluttering as she lands by Padmé for a treat.)

I accepted that other galaxies existed before I came to Avalon. I never considered a number, however, or how different they might be from the one I knew.

My home world is called Naboo. I've heard a little about Earth, but are there other planets that you call home?

I can't believe I have to make a public announcement like this, but clearly some of you need to hear it! For those of you who have been living under a rock, there's a flu going around - a magical flu, of all things, really. Yet those who have caught it are insisting on broadcasting it, going out and about in public, making themselves and all those around them sicker! It's a wonder a great many of you have survived to live this long, considering how foolish you've acted.

So it comes to me to take care of things, as always. First off, if you suffer from these symptoms, you have the flu -
  • A fever, possibly coming with chills
  • Constant coughing
  • Sore throat
  • Runny or stuffy nose
  • Muscle or body aches
  • Headaches
  • Fatigue
  • And, again, as this is a magic flu, spontaneous magical shenanigans.
Second, since it's become clear some of you can't take care of yourselves, I'm taking it upon myself to visit those who are ill to tend to them!

[ To wit, she moves to put on her Magic Mask - a face mask that really only prevents inhaling magic dusts, but it should still do the job. It's plain until she puts it on, whereupon it's decorated in fancy frills. She then puts up a wicker basket, full of food and a few medical supplies - fresh small towels, tissue boxes, hot water bottles, etc. ]

And before you penny pinchers begin to whine, no, I'm not asking for anything in return, save for your cooperation and to behave like adults! And for those of you who are too stubborn to ask for help... don't think I won't find you. I have my ways.

[ Because the best way to distract oneself from the misery that comes with your friend from your home world vanishing is to throw yourself into everybody's business! She's Fine.]

It's been a while since I last talked about it, but if there are other military trained or otherwise military involved people here, I would be interested in learning about your experiences and maybe train in different military styles.

[He looks no older than sixteen, though he does act like he's older than he is.]

I've been gone from the world I originally come from for a long, long time but I don't want to get rusty with my abilities. I do train regularly with my fiancee and a friend, but having different styles for variety would be great.


[But.. since he asked it would be rude not to say something about his.]


My own military training mostly consist of fighting monsters multiple times larger than myself - imagine smallest being four meters and tallest being over ten meters. So I'm mostly trained in aeial combat in equipment meant for that purpose that I don't have here. Otherwise I do know how to fight other humans in various ways. Even to death if absolutely necessary.

[Well that turned a little dark didn't it.]

Either way, I'm called Jean. Here my magic is animal and healing, so I'd very much like to keep up with my training so I can continue fighting.

[ It has been a while since Weiss last posted on the network, and it was for a much serious concern. Now? Her video post starts off with a close up of her eyes, the scar that runs down the length of her left eye for all to see, before she sets her device down to show her non-close-up self, as well as her set up. Namely, a small plate containing a cute cream puff. Her background is a little blurry, but she seems to be in the kitchen, if one can make out the details of the shelves and tables and kitchenware in the back. ]

For the record, I know I'm a little late to the trend, but I got curious and tried to make a potion, anyway. Mostly because these cream puffs are so cute and delicious, but this is the last one from the box I got and I'm still not satisfied. It's a convenient way to try this potion out. And... I do have something to ask those who know more about these than I do.

Now, if we just add a small drop of this potion... [ With a dropper, she shows that she does, indeed, put a small drop of the potion onto the cream puff! Slowly, but surely, one side of the cream puff seems to get bigger and bigger, until a bump forms and the bump turns into another cream puff! With a crack, the two cream puffs split. And a soft "Oh, gods! It actually worked!" can be heard. That was Weiss. And then she lets out a little squeal because she's so excited.

... until she realises that she's still live. That's when she clears her throat. YOU SAW NOTHING!! ]


R- Right. They're so cute, I might make more... [ So much for acting serious! She was going somewhere with this! ] Okay, so, that was a success. I wanted to ask if there's anyone who's experimented with similar potions before? Is there anyway to make two of me? That, you know... isn't going to turn evil or try to take over my life.

Oh! [ Realising she didn't exactly give much context to that-- ] I just think work would be more efficient with two of me. I have nooo... evil agenda whatsoever! Please don't think I'm a criminal.

[ Sounds kind of sus, though, Weiss. (She really doesn't have anything bad planned. Oops.) ]

It's funny to me how we have pumpkins running rampant and other sort of spooky stuff when this place has never heard of Halloween. Though sure, pumpkins are a part of autumn anyway.

That being said, advice to anyone who might need it: don't go trick or treating unless you want to get arrested by knights. This isn't America, going to knock people's doors asking for candy and threatening them with a prank isn't going to go well.
