Just for the hell of it...

Answer this.

What would you do if you suddenly woke up a decade older?


[He is keeping to himself, hiding up a tree while he...adjusts. The passage of time doesn't matter - like he cares if he is seventeen or twenty-seven - but what happened in that decade...

That rattles him. Amazes him. Confounds him.]

I wish to run tests with my powers of light and technology, to see what more I can do with them.

If anyone wishes to assist me, I would be most thankful.

[Somewhere in the background, there could be the sound of a young girl giving a small sigh as there was some mumbling. If one can hear faintly, there is the sound of "Shao May, I know what I'm doing! I'll be okay!"

That being said, this young girl cleared her throat!]


Hello, my name is May Chang and it is nice to meet you all! I was wondering if there is someone who would be curious to go on a quest with me. I'm still not use to learning the magic here so I would be grateful to you could help me out!

Also! I was wondering, what kind of things do you do here? I am not familiar with the technology either, so I am curious to see what is considered fashionable here! I heard a lot about this type of music called pop or hip hop? I'm not sure what it's supposed to mean but I would like to learn more!

Thank you!

I am seeking someone to teach me how to spar. I have been building up my endurance for a month; I feel I am ready for lessons.

(She isn't easy on herself, so if you have seen her running through the cold, that isn't odd.)

You can contact me at your convenience and we can work out compensation for your time. Thank you.

In light of recent events, I have some things to say.

The loss of life in Celliwig is deeply regrettable, and while we were able to save many from Lestari, there were still those who did not survive. I know that many of you may be feeling that you did not do enough.

[He certainly feels all those losses, for civilian casualties are always regrettable.]

But we may also look upon these failures and learn from them. Those who fought the dragon now know how it behaves and what its weaknesses are, so if it returns, we will be more prepared. Mourn the dead, but look upon these losses as a way to better prepare for the future, so we may not repeat our past mistakes.

[The video feed opens to a blurry shot of Rinea's porch as she turns it on, then sits back a proper distance with a smile. She has managed to center the camera properly this time: no ceiling shots or fingers covering the lens. She practiced! (Still, she looks a bit nervous.)]

Um.. Good day. My name is Rinea! I have a request to make. It's a bit silly, but I would be very happy for assistance nonetheless.

The truth is... I have been residing in Camelot for some time now, but am still unused to using... the internet. [Blush.] It seems a very vital skill to have, to keep abreast of the news! I've missed many an important post on local dangers! But I've still had trouble with checking regularly.

So-- would anyone be interested in exchanging letters, as conversational partners? I believe the term is "pen pals." I would enjoy befriending more of my fellow Avalon otherworlders... and I think having messages to look forward to will make it easier for me to remember to check the phone.

[A hah hah hah. Embarrassing. But still-- she will soldier on!!!]

I will gladly chat about anything, of course! But as for myself, topics I can speak upon include dancing and embroidery. I also spend much of my time honing my alchemy and potionmaking skills-- I would be very happy to share what I have learned there. I also admire gardens and their wildlife, but I have little experience in their cultivation... Oh, and music, as well. You know, the music of Avalon is so varied compared to home, it's a little overwhelming!

[Remembering herself, Rinea inclines her head shyly at the camera.]

Um-- Thank you for listening. I very much look forward to meeting anyone interested!

[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.

 [Arriving in a new world should not have shaken her this much, yet Rika found herself stowed away in her room for the first day. The only link she had to Hinamizawa was the calendar page in her hand: June 30th. Everything else was gone; Stuck in another fragment, which she could not reach on her own. Not even that clumsy goddess would answer Rika when she has here.

She did have her familiar, a nekomata, to keep her company. Who was not as whiny as Hanyu. And a cellphone, which her 1980s self was woefully unprepared to use. She eventually flips it open and recognizes its similarity to the dial-up phone at her house.]


Mii... Can I be heard? Have I called anyone..? [She isn't confident that she reached a public network, so sighs sadly,] I do not have any friends to call here, do I? They're all back home... in danger. Counting on me...

[There's a sad wibble in her voice. It surprises even Rika to hear herself so close to tears. But the realization that she's separated from her friends is hitting her harder when she speaks the reality out loud. Rika has to wipe her eyes and draw in a calming breath. With some alarming skill, she masks her sadness under a more cheerful tone;]

... Sorry. My name is Rika Furude~! I am newly arrived. It is nice to meet everyone.

I have been told that my kitty friend and I can help out with magic. Is there a school for learning such a thing? Or... nihehe. [Rika pulls the device back slightly from her ear, realizing her mistake.] Maybe I should have called a number first. Phones do not magically connect to everyone at once, silly silly

Hey, everyone! I know we've all gotten some new magic lately, and really to some of us, magic in general is new, but that's beside the point.

I've been thinking that those of us with computer magic should maybe all get together and have a sharing of our information. It's always much more fun to figure things out in a group!

Maybe just introduce yourself and we'll come up with a place and time to meet!

Oh, right. I'm Matt Holt, Space Nerd, and astronaut, presently back home captured by aliens.

So, uh... hi?


[Maybe this wasn't as good of an idea as he thought when he started.]
