[Vanille looks as cheery as ever when the video starts up, and she giggles and brushes a lock of hair out of her face.]

Hello everyone! So, Gabriel told me about this really interesting thing from his world called a pride parade! Apparently it's a celebration of, um, LGBT culture [She says it slowly, trying to remember the proper order of the ( Read more... )

[Vanille is outside, standing in the middle of a sidewalk as she starts up the message. Behind her is a little red wagon currently being used as a soup kitchen - it's full of bowls, spoons, and a couple huge containers of homemade soup.]

Even with all the warnings, a whole bunch of you managed to get sick. [She laughs, shaking her head.] So I made ( Read more... )

[Vanille's smiling when she turns on her communicator, but it's easy to see that her face is blotchy and her eyes are red like she's been crying for a while. Obviously because she has. First Nana got killed by a Weeping Angel, now Fang's just gone... Her apartment feels so empty now ( Read more... )

[The communicator comes on suddenly to an odd angle, screen half covered by a hand for a moment. When it pulls back, it shows Vanille and Fang, both of whom look rather flush faced. They're in Tifa's bar, at the bar itself, and Fang's smirk means terrible things. She leans right in towards Vanille, smirk turning into a small grin.]

Come on, ( Read more... )

[Vanille's looking very stern as the video flicks on.]

Okay, whoever's hurt needs to come see me right now! Or, um, I'll come to you if you can't come to me. But I hope anyone isn't hurt that badly... [Stop frowning, Vanille, back on topic.] I've got some healing magic, and I don't care if you don't believe me because I'm going to use it to help ( Read more... )

[The video feed clicks on to show a little pink-haired girl looking thoroughly excited. She has a very important announcement.]

Hey everyone! I just realized, tomorrow's my birthday! I'm going to be eleven! With all this excitement I almost forgot about it...

[Too bad she won't be able to celebrate turning 11 again since everyone should be ( Read more... )

[Surprise! A smiling but slightly worried looking girl is showing up on the screen right now.]

Hello everyone! I know this is usually Altair's job -

[She laughs.]- but given recent events I think a roll call is kinda needed right now. So please tell me if you're still here, or if someone's missing, so I can write it down, okay? Oh, and my name's ( Read more... )

[The picture doesn't seem to be showing up, but if you stop to listen, you can hear fairly audible sobs coming through your communicator.]

I know it's my fault, I know, please - I'm so sorry, I thought I was stronger than this. I promised -

[Vanille's mutterings dissolve into more tears.]

ooc; looks like Vanille can't handle the ( Read more... )

[Vanille has ATTEMPTED to send this to everybody except Nana, but her skills with locking the communications are mediocre at best.]

Hey guys! I just found out that Nana's birthday is coming up soon, and I think we should throw a party for her! What do you say, would anyone be interested? It'll be loads of fun!

[She lowers her voice ( Read more... )

[there's some fumbling with the journal as she attempts to open it. when she speaks, you can hear her teeth chatter a little bit.]

Hey everyone! Isn't the new weather lovely? The snow's so pretty!

[there's a hesitant pause.]Though...does anyone know where I can get some warmer clothes? I don't have a lot of money left, so the cheaper the better. ( Read more... )
