4th Arcana [Video]

[callmewhateveryuwant]

[Hi everyone in Hugville! It's time for your daily dosage of cute annoying kitten playing on the network. And by annoying, we mean Banchou turning Yu's phone on via furry behind. So that is the first thing the network sees. Secondly is the cat dragging it by his mouth over to the living room where his owner is reading from the e book machine he got for Christmas. And he happened to see the bugger drag the phone.]

That's not for you.

[A meow off camera and Yu reached out to grab the device, shaking his head. So he turned the thing on...it could be recording much worse.]

Sorry, he seems to pick up a habit of grabbing things. Since this is on, I wanted to ask your opinion on something. It's summer and getting warmer out, so I was wondering if anyone was interested in some kind of water fight. I saw some stores selling water guns and the buildings have hoses so everyone can join in. What do you-

[He is now interrupted by a crash coming from the kitchen and he does not look happy.]

Banchou no!

[And as he ran off, the camera cuts. A few minutes later, Yu made another message but to the city's native scientists.]

[Private to Saeng Seong Scientists]

Can I ask you a question about the kittens you had some of us round up a while back?

[callmewhateveryuwant]

I have no idea.

[Guess who's covered in flour? This idiot.]

By the way, you're not missing anything are you?

[Tempura-senpai, no]

Huh? No, nothin' I know of. Why, what's up?

Video

[callmewhateveryuwant]

Just wondering that's all.

[Because kitty.]

[After a moment, he shrugs.]

Sure.

Count me in on the water fight, too! Heh- S'it cheating if I had some shooting lessons from a pro?

whats the purpose of a water fight

[He is pretty well versed in fighting and water seems inefficient to fight with. What is this nonsense.]

Video on his end

[callmewhateveryuwant]

Mainly to cool off and have fun.

[... fun? For... enjoyment? Sure, he knows the word, but what the hell is that. He only sees a waste of water, time, and effort.]

there are simpler ways to cool off

[callmewhateveryuwant]

Any simpler ways to have fun?

[dontthesunlookgoodtoday]

[well now he's glad that Mutie is only a little bit weird. relatively.]

Sure, that sounds like a good time. You think the kitten'll want to join in?

[callmewhateveryuwant]

...it wouldn't surprise me if he likes water.

[dontthesunlookgoodtoday]

Haven't seen him in the bath yet?

[callmewhateveryuwant]

In the shower but not near water.

I should try that.

[Because Banchou now needs a bath.]

... [Well, hello...furry behind.

Squinting his eyes as he frowns a bit, Luke watches as the device gets dragged. Well, fortunately, that person isn't...changing, or something. An extremely awkward smile appears on his face at that thought.

Listening to the message, however, he slowly looks more and more intrigued- and curious. Water fight...? Water guns...? The sound of the crash interrupts his train of thought, however, and has an exasperated smile appearing.]

This Banchou definitely seems to like keeping you busy...

[Offering a smile.] My name's Luke, by the way. I've only been here... [Quick mental count.] ...a little over a week, now. [Now he's giving a faintly awkward pause...] How does a water fight work, exactly?

[Video]

[callmewhateveryuwant]

Between the exploring and scaring people, he's a bit of a handful at times. Fair warning, if he somehow ends up in your place don't question it. Even he doesn't know how he does it.

[He's a ninja for a reason.]

It's nice to meet you Luke, I'm Yu Narukami. A water fight...it's like a battle except you use water rather than a sword. It's mostly for fun and during the summer it keeps others cool.

[Video]

[headfons]

I...see. [Chuckling softly at that warning.] I'll be sure to keep an eye out, then.

[There's a momentary pause at the name. He heard it like the word 'you'.] It's nice to meet you, too...Yu.

[M-MOVING ON, NOW.] That sounds like a lot of fun, actually. [Slowly, a faint grin appears.] Well, I'm interested! So, if you guys do decide to throw one, you can count me in.

[Video]

[callmewhateveryuwant]

We'll let everyone know when it'll happen. It's good to hear that you want to join in, it's kind of needed right now.

[no_dreams_for_you]

......

[Interesting. What an intelligent pet. Gaara is also fixated on the fact that the communication device... has a portable version, apparently? He will need to acquire one of those.]

Does this activity require physical contact?

[Video]

[callmewhateveryuwant]

[His came with him; Yu just asked the scientists to hook it up to the network.]

More than likely no but if that's what you're interested in I don't see a problem.

[demimaudite]

Well well. Someone has found that the Network terminals in the lobby have screen readers! Okay it's very frustrating and slow to use it to navigate, but whatever, Shura is blindfolded by doctor's orders and bored.

"Prepare to be annihilated," she jokes.

[callmewhateveryuwant]

[She's able to joke around again without any worry. Getting better.]

Bring it.

What is it that you would like to know?

{ video || 99.99% unhackable }

[callmewhateveryuwant]

[Not switching on his end.]

Have any of the kittens you have gotten shown any strange quirks?

{ private text || anonymous || 99.99% unhackable }

[rekindlenpcs]

A total of four have shown signs of anomalies that cannot be explained via the scientific method. In other more simple terms to not bore you with the extenuating details, yes. There have been some "strange quirks" you've mentioned.

[callmewhateveryuwant]

Could you tell me what they are?

[As a kitten shakes off the flour in the background.]
