[ Well, okay, that was a little weird. Just a moment ago, she had been seeing Souji off at the station: they'd all stopped running after the train once the platform ended, of course, Yukiko trying to hold back the tears from her eyes. It was all very dramatic and climactic ( Read more... )

[The video shows a sheepish looking Shiki Misaki, sitting on the couch in the apartment she shares with Rise and Raven while holding a lamb on her lap. Another sheep can be seen, an adult from the looks of it, who's been sniffing at Shiki's hat for the past few minutes.]

BAAA!

What the--no! Shoo! Go away!

[Shiki turns to the big sheep, ( Read more... )

[ Somewhere in the Bungalow District near the cruise ship wreckage is Naoto. Her jacket and hat are missing, though, and her white shirt usually hidden underneath is visibly. The sleeves are rolled up to her elbows. In her hands she grips a pistol. The sun catches the metal and gleams off it. She's aiming with a steady hand at the ship wreckage ( Read more... )

[See Souji. See Souji bundled up in bed, though as soon as he's sure it's on video, he gives a small smile.]

I hope everyone who came to the Christmas party had a good time. I know that I did, and thank you everyone for the gifts. I know I already said that when gifts were handed out, but thank you, again.

People are really pouring in. Hopefully the confusion's been cleared for a lot of you? It's pretty overwhelming, so...

- Oh right, Christmas is soon. [sniff, a pause, then talks again] I've already heard of plans going on but sleeping sounds pretty good for me.

[and some mumbling] And maybe three more blankets or something, is that too much to ( Read more... )

It's been over a week since I've arrived here. Ummm... I think I'm starting to get used to this place. It's a lot bigger than I expected. I'm getting the hang of this seal thing too. I guess it's just like a fancier phone ( Read more... )

[There are many things you would expect a new arrival to do. Flailing around is one of them. So is frantically asking what is going on.  The newest addition to Splendor, however, is doing none of these things. In fact, he seems pretty relaxed, and is merely listening to music while he examines his seal, key and surroundings, which right now ( Read more... )

[When she'd discovered the seal, she'd initially been just a touch annoyed, but perhaps mostly amused. Winding up here had not been a summon like she had initially thought. A bit of toying was all it took for her to figure out just how to get the seal to work.]Well, well, well. Isn't this a curious little thing. Handy too, from the looks of it. ( Read more... )

[What a day! Protoman was beat.]

[All this walking, and so far not a single robot, vending machine, or mechanic, and to top it all off...]

[A muttering coming from around his belt.]

Again with this thing? Gotta find an off button or I'm gonna wind up blasting it-

[And just as he had shown disdain for the seal, it ceased to pipe up for some time ( Read more... )

[Blink. Blink. She looks to the left.]
