Although the most striking feature of hers is those pale eyes of hers.

Hello.

[There's a polite bow of her head before she continues.]

My name is Hanabi Hyuuga. I was thinking about everything that happened recently, with the Forest of the Felled, Celliwig and Lestari.

[Hard not to, when Camelot is filled with survivors of those very attacks.]

I think one way we could work to avoid things like that happening in the future would be for more of us to get used to working with each other. On quests, and just training together would be good, too. Then we'd be able to plan better, because we'd know how to work together and what each other could do.

[She's not sure of how this will go over, but it doesn't hurt to try.]

So...um. I'll work with anyone who wants to go on quests, or train together. Thank you for your time.

[The last few months had given Mukuro a lot to think about- especially with regard to her own death back home. One part still didn't make any sense to her:

What had she done wrong? Why had Junko killed her?

...It was with those thoughts swimming around in her head that she sent another late night message to the network.]

Reviewing the strategy from a recent battle at home. I want to understand the rational for the decisions taken.

A soldier is engaged in a stealth/undercover mission. However, they have made a mistake that risks the operation's success, and have not realised their error.

The mission commander is in a position to eliminate the operative to preserve their mission, without exposing themselves in the process.

Is that course of action reasonable? To put it another way- under what circumstances would you consider sacrificing one of your own men to ensure a mission's success or to prevent it's failure?

Don't feel you have to answer.

Why is it the first time I get to buy clothes for me after having to buy clothes for other people, it's because all of my pants don't fit right cause I have a fucking tail!?

Seriously, is it so wrong to want a little time where things aren't fucking sideways.

...Also my ears itch and I can't wear headphones on them...

[Izzy sets up her camera a decent distance from the sofa she's going to be sitting on then walks into frame and sits down. Like a proper human being sitting primly on the center of the sofa. For all of about five seconds before she sprawls over it like some cat who definitely is doing whatever it wants.]

This place just doesn't stop, does it. Trials. Kidnapping. More fucking kidnapping. Does it ever just- slow down?

Anyway- during the trials I think there was always another real person, right? The whole game was seeing what two people did together in a situation. Cause their bullshit wouldn't really mean anything if someone wasn't there to intervene, to play.

[Izzy had been thinking about the trials, each one was some level of messed up. But they did seem to have rules, it wouldn't be much of a trial without them. Even if that wasn't the point of her post.]

So... you think about finding the people out here, after the fact? The ones you didn't know before you ended up in that messed up game? Get to- like- find out if they're okay?

[She rolls off the couch more than gets up, landing in a crouch and heads over to her phone.]

I dunno, I'm still not used to this place. But some of the people I met were nice, I just- wonder if they're as nice outside of these bullshit games others are playing with us. I guess.

[She'll click her feed off with that.]

[Here, people will hear Ken giving a mumble or two before speaking up.]

Maybe I’m overthinking this but what are you suppose to do for your 14th birthday here? I know I’m no longer a kid but it’s strange to know that I’m not even an adult either.

I think there’s something I need to fulfill but I’m not even sure what it is at that age.

[He said before giving a sigh]

Tell me, how do you handle being a kid but realizing you’re getting older?

[ There are a few seconds of silence at the beginning of the message. For speed - and unfamiliarity with text-type devices - Elsa has decided to speak... and yet true to form, for a good several seconds she isn't entirely sure what she should say. In fact, it's only just as the listener might start to think that nothing's going to be said at all that there's a small, throat-clearing cough from the would-be speaker. ]

Hello.

[ An audible sound of skin on skin as Elsa slaps her hand against her face. A small, embarrassed laugh follows. ]

I'm sorry. I confess I'm not entirely sure of what I wanted to say. But I thought perhaps I should send out a message here. It's a little hard to believe, but I've been here for three months now, and I've barely met a single person.

[ That's not quite true; she's met a lot of people, but it's been more in passing. Even the famously introverted former queen is starting to realize she needs more than that. ]

I'm Elsa. Most of my time has been spent practicing my magical abilities, in the hope of being able to help my loved ones back at home. But I'm trying to find a little more balance. After all, it looks like we're going to be here for a while.

So tell me: what do people do around here for fun?

[It's that red-eyed kid again, this time looking bored as ever and... Messing with their one hand, anyone who may strain their eyes looking may notice that they're playing with something red.

Probably blood, or maybe paint. Hopefully, it's paint.]


So I have two questions for you all, one pretty heavy and the other well. It's a question.

[They make a clicking sound with their tongue before they continue.]

Question one is simply, why are we even voting for the wussy way with this whole thing? Like the other options might be better than giving in to some weirdo, or whatever the whole deal with hearts is. And aren't we here to like, fight or something? So why is that option not viable to the lot of you?

[They let those questions hang there before continuing.]

On a less, I guess less serious note? How screwed up is it for this place to give blood magic to a kid?

[Yes, what they're messing with is blood. Hahaha whoops.]

[Izzy is doing her very best, when the video starts, to look presentable and like she knows what she's doing. She is, however, fourteen and so the tension is real. She looks nervous and a bit uneasy. Although her hair is all neatly combed for once. And a new outfit, but it mostly makes her look like she's trying too hard.]

Um, hi. I'm Izzy. I... kinda want to move out of the hotel. I don't really know how to cook and I can't just keep eating bread rolls and cookies after work every day. If anyone wants to meet somewhere public so I can get to know you and see if it's- like, a good idea to move in?

I can help with rent, but I don't really know how to cook or anything. And you have to be okay with me playing the violin. I need to practice and all. I can clean, not like I do a lot of it but enough to keep my room from being a safety hazard. And- like other chores if they aren't super degrading.

Like- I guess the other thing is don't be a shithead who tries to make me go to fucking school.

[...she realized she was doing so well at not swearing until that last line. Looks deeply embarrassed (she tried to be respectable), and clicks off the feed with that.]
