( It’s not like he’s never seen this kind of phone before - in fact, he considers it to be somewhat outdated. But he’s curious - what has happened to his cellphone? While he has an idea of who may have been behind this - that is, Kotetsu - he assumes that this is the only way he can get into contact with him. And if that’s the case, he’ll give his

-you're a hero?! Like Oreegammy Cyclone and Blue Rose?! And um-

... I forgot what his name was.

[ Sorry, Tiger... ]

( Familiar names... at least he's off to a great start. It seems that they are behind this after all. While he could show annoyance, he can't lose his composure in front of camera.

Still, the idea that everyone can access him through this can be bothersome... )

Yes, I am. Origami Cyclone and Blue Rose are my friends as well... Are you forgetting some one else?

( If she says Wild Tiger....!!!! )

[brightsiding]

[ She taps her chin... ] Yeah, I am! I can't remember his name, but...

I remember he was really excited about doing hero things! And... He fell down.

[hoppyhalloween]

( oh... of course... he looks a little embarrassed. )

Ah, you're talking about Wild Tiger. He happens to be my partner.

( he doesn't blame you for forgetting him... )

[brightsiding]

That was it! Wild Tiger! He's really spirited about this hero stuff, huh? I couldn't remember his name, though...

Well... He's definitely here! So, I'm sure he'll try to get in touch with you soon. He wouldn't be a good partner if he didn't.

[hoppyhalloween]

Well, he's the sort of man who you'll remember by his clumsiness more than his name. I'm certain that he wouldn't mind.

( Yes he would. )

And as it seems, he already has. Thank you for help, though.

[ Probably he does. ] Well, I'll make sure to remember his name this time. Yours, too! Wild Tiger and Barnaby Brooks Jr! Oreegammy Cyclone and Blue Rose, too.

No problem! I'm glad you two could find each other. [ She knows what it's like to be missing your partner! ]

Oh- I'm Vanille, by the way.

I don't think I'm capable of losing him. He sticks out like a sore thumb sometimes. Please excuse him if he's done any damage to your property. He doesn't mean it.

( He smiles. It's spoken in jest, but again, he's just speaking the truth. Causing trouble everywhere he goes, that old man... )

It's a pleasure to meet you, Vanille. Have you been here for long as well?

video;

[brightsiding]

Well, that's not a bad thing, is it? Never having to go looking for him is pretty useful.

He hasn't! [ She laughs, and shakes her head. ] He hasn't done anything but show up on the network a few times, trying to rally all of the heroes together.

[ She's never met any of the heroes in person... It would probably be an overload of excitement if she did. ]

Mmhm! I've been here for about... Four or five months? Around that long. I was one of the first people to show up here.

[hoppyhalloween]

Rallying heroes, huh... ( he thinks about this for a moment then releases a small laugh. ) That sounds like him.

( but of course he hadn't thought about the fact that that draws too much attention upon them... oh kotetsu. you'll never learn!! the information she gives next is crucial though, and he furrows his brows as tries to digest the details. )

You were one of the first to be here, despite having been here for four-five months? The establishment of the kidnappings is quite recent, then...

[brightsiding]

That's what we thought, too. When we showed up, the lights weren't even on, yet.

-I mean, the sun! It was dark all day, when we first got here. But then, a little while after that, the Twelve turned it on, I guess.

[ Just a testament to their power, maybe... ]

video;

[hoppyhalloween]

The Twelve... made a sun?

( Though he does find it funny she thinks a sun can be turned on. Then again, it doesn't seem impossible based on the things he's heard. And here he's looking thoughtful again. NEXTs, maybe? But he's never heard of anything so powerful... )

It could mean that this place is some sort of new civilisation, as ridiculous as that sounds... and if that theory is correct, are they expecting us to populate it? ...This isn't making any sense.

( At this point, he seems to be just talking to himself with the camera on, and the more he thinks about it, the more frustrated he gets. He catches himself though, and look apologetically at the screen. )

Ah, I'm sorry. This is just so new to me. Is there anything else about Zodion I should know?

video;

[brightsiding]

I don't know if they made it, but, there wasn't any light when we first got here. They promised there would be, within three days, and then three days later, the sun came up! [ So, yeah. They turned the sun on. ]

It is a new civilization... But they're bringing in people from other worlds, instead of... Creating people from scratch. [ Like the fal'Cie had. She guesses the Twelve aren't very good biogenerators, though. ]

Um... Well, it depends! I could... Tell you about worshiping.

video;

[hoppyhalloween]

Maybe they're just lazy.

( He accompanies the joke with a smile, then a sigh. )

I'd been wondering what they'd meant by worshipping...

video;

[brightsiding]

Well, it makes sense if you put it that way!

Worshiping is... Ah-

Well, you have to do something. To worship them. It's not just normal.

[hoppyhalloween]

( And there it is again - another one dancing around the question. Really, how terrible can it be? But he doesn't want to force it out of her as well. He'll just ask Kotetsu. With that, he nods, pretending to understand. )

That's all I need to know. Thank you again for your help, Vanille. Please let me know if you remember and/or notice anything else about Zodion.
