[The feed turns on inside of one of the apartments. The lighting is dim at best, but across the walls, floor, bed, are papers strewn up and down. From what can be made out, their covered in largely ineligible scientific jargon. Graphs, diagrams, and incredibly complex formula in messy, smeared black ink. Rita is hunched over at the desk at, ( Read more... )

[Lucas is grinning, happier than he's been in a long time. Not as happy as he's ever been...but certainly better than he's been since Nepeta was terminated.

And he's smoking this cigarette like it's the first one he's had in years.]

Holy shit, you guys.

This place is like, a billion times huger than I thought it was. Are you seeing this shit?

[the camera flicks on to... darkness. well, except for nill's face and just behind her back, which is illuminated by the 'berry. she's pretty pale, and looks more than a bit frightened, though she's trying hard to hide it. her wings are trembling a bit. after a few moments of making sure the 'berry is on, she turns the camera to her bed. there's a ( Read more... )

[This message will come quite late on Monday night.]Attached is a file I've received with maps that point out specific areas. Please try to not get too carried away and hurt those areas, we need them. Additionally, please do not injure the mechanical workers, we need those as well ( Read more... )

For anyone who doesn't want to get caught up in this mess, the house closest to the bank is open. It's magically warded and reinforced so anyone we don't want getting in can't get in and it should be able to withstand anything going on around it. It's about as safe as it can be right now. If you can't get here yourself we'll send someone to get you ( Read more... )

[There are monsters around that she can't see to kill, too many people, and not nearly enough food for everyone. The roofs are even too crowded in her opinion, but Galatea snags one for herself--and blanket or two from the hotel. To do what? Sunbathing. Why? Because she can. But it's really not the same, even if it is hot outside and the fake ( Read more... )

[the feed shows mostly darkness, broken only by a weak flashlight that Heather has shoved into her pocket. The lanterns aren't doing much. From all this it's pretty obvious she's in the mine. Trust Heather to find the grossest, scariest place possible and explore it. Standard survival-horror teen procedure, don't mind her]

Ugh, it stinks down here ( Read more... )

Man, it must have been tough last week! I don't mean to make anyone feel bitter, but I'm glad I skipped that one.

[ He'll just pretend he didn't wake up wondering what the hell just happened to him. So, he coughs, clears his throat and smiles at the screen. A Hero must look confident all the time! ]

Well, it's Christmas. I think? [ Unsure, sideways ( Read more... )

[Nepeta glares at the camera with fierce determination in her eyes. Also, hey, she's rockin' an outfit reminiscent of Earth-goths. So chic. Less chic is the stitched-up cut under her left eye with a bit of crusted blood... magenta blood.]

STOP IT! Stop it, all of you! This is stupid and crazy and you're all being jerks and... [What's that word ( Read more... )

[The feed is dark, covered up by something]

What makes someone like them?

[It doesn't seem like Jack's talking to anyone in particular but himself, just thinking out loud]

It's not... powers. It's not what you can do, it's what you will do. [He was timid at first, trying to convince himself. Now he's getting more assertive]

What you're willing to put ( Read more... )
