[When the feed begins, there is a very unkempt Rhea surrounded by papers and some of the scrolls that were collected the month or so previously. It's obvious that she has overly strained herself as she rubs her left eye with a blackened hand from the ink she used.]

Hello, favored visitors. I apologize for my less... seemly appearance, but due to the events last month that likely left many of you thrown for a loop, it fell to me to find a means of reversing the effects and to translate many of the texts recovered to a language all can understand.

Last month began a cycle of the year in which the Goddess of the Wind and Aether's influence is strongest. According to our ancient texts- [She picks up one of the scrolls of paper she wrote on.] "The Lady of Aether ist much a trickster in nature, and blesses our mortal beings the power of transformation."

[After setting it down, she continues.]

To those who were amongst the Transformed last month, she chose you much like she had chosen me as a child. This form given you is capable of being shifted between with a proper conduit, such as the mask a few of you have seen in my office.

[She bows her head... and promptly dozes off by accident.

Oops.]

-Is it on yet? [It is on yet. Yes. Okay. Good. Say hello to Silver, guys! He's trying not to look as awkward as he feels on the network, but there's only so much he can do. Behind him are a couple of his Pokémon- as well as a couple of Crys' partners. They all seem to be in pretty high spirits!]

Hi. [Great and solid start there, loser.] You know the bird guy [name, he has a name-] Ramza that gives Chocobo eggs to good homes every now and then? [Deep breath, Silver. Easy. He's not sure why he didn't just let Crys do this. She's much better with talking to people- anyway.]

Crys and I have a few eggs in need of good homes too. [And it's at this point that he holds up two blue eggs with very different patterns on them- He's very careful about it, but it's more than enough to get a good look at them.] We've got a few of them.

The catch is that they're gonna hatch into Pokémon- they'll be the pre-evolution of one of these guys back here. [All the Pokémon eagerly wave from behind Silver! Hi guys.] They're gonna need a lot of love, attention, and patience. Some people at home treat them like pets, but most people treat them like friends or partners.

We'll answer anything you need to know about them and help you train them if you want, but we can't take care of all of these guys ourselves. [...So, uh-] Any takers?

[Did he do well, Crys, does he get a star-]

[ooc: HI GUYS IT'S EGG TIME. All the ooc info you need is here- this is just a post to gather ic interest and we'll pick brand new trainers out shortly! It's not too late to try for one- anyone that shows enough interest on the post will be put into our amazing wild completely cool rng thing for a chance at a Pokémon (and remember, even if you don't get one this time there's always next time in a few months!)

ALSO. Gold, Crys, and Silver will all be threadjacking pretty much everything on this post, so if you get a tag from one of us unless otherwise specified feel free to assume you can tag back go ahead this is pure chaos I apologize-]

uncouthhatcher

[Sure, he's walking through the city today with Chobo, but he's also twirling a rose behind his back. For some reason, he just can't put it down. Though maybe he'd just give it to someone. Like Crys. Or Silver. Or something. Someone. Hell, even Chobo could eat it.

Not being a fan of chocolates or real sweet things in general, he's chocolate free.

Just.

A little more courageous than usual, maybe, though you can't tell it right off. Courageous enough to maybe, you know, ask someone out. Steady out. Out out. Dating. Life partners. Daycare couple.

Maybe.

Anyway, the important thing is that he's got something to propose ~~and someone to propose to~~ and it's gonna be faaaaantastic and food filled. Pokégear, let's shine the spotlight! Man, it's still weird to use it like this!]

Hope everyone's lovey dovey day was cool, since for sad singles like myself it's just a cruel reminder of reality. [~Dramatic~] Anyway, since that's outta the way, I've got a plan.

[He pauses, idly twirling the flower hidden from view, and grins as he pushes Chobo away from his back with his free hand.]

A cook off. We got any aspirin' chefs or something like that? I figure that with so many kinds of people from all round the galaxy or whatever there's a ton of different flavors, so it'd be fun! For everyone! Especially me, 'cause I'm gonna be judgin' it!

[Hell yeah. Free food. Free, delicious food. Mmmm. Yes. Just what one needs after a single's Valentine's Day where you got pity chocolate from your best friends.]

Any takers?

reassigned

Hey guys, Cupid here! Just a heads up that if I seem a little M.I.A. the next few weeks- well, more than I already have at least- do not be alarmed. Valentine's Day preparation is something I take super seriously, so... yeah.

[It's a family thing.]

Gonna be a liiiiittle bit busier than usual.

But! If anyone needs my help with any special plans for the holiday, feel free to let me know, okay? I am totally the ghu- uh, goddess to help you out with that!

[She pauses, and then adds, thoughtfully-]

P.S. If someone would drop by and remind me to grab lunch every once in a while? I'd really appreciate it.

detective_shirogane

[The video feed began, and Naoto would appear on the screen, dressed in her usual hat, fine jacket and neck tie, perhaps even more refined than usual. Sitting at her desk, she'd made sure that the area where the video would work was immaculate. First impressions were important after all.]

Good day, Saeng Seong; my name is Naoto Shirogane. I have met some of you already, but to those who I've yet to meet, I felt it was important to make this video to properly introduce myself.

In my own world, I am a detective working with various police organizations across Japan, helping them solve 'unsolvable crimes'. Obviously, Saeng Seong is relatively peaceful...

[Ignoring the Mutant Snowmen...]

But, I find it still prudent to be prepared. Thus, I'd like to announce that by Wednesday next week, the Shirogane Detective Agency will be opening in District 3. If you ever are in need of assistance, please consider coming to the agency or contacting me.

[She tipped her hat towards the screen, offering them a small smile.]

Please, also feel free to ask any questions you may have here.

[Filtered for Mitsuru and Fuuka]

[For these two, there would be a continuation of the feed, Naoto's smile still there.]

Fuuka-san, Kirijo-san; I am aware this is sudden, but I would like to extend an invitation to the two of you. I would be honoured if you'd consider working with me at my agency.

[Naoto leaned back somewhat, her eyes keeping that calm look, but there was a level of uncertainty; would they even be interested? Or would they doubt her sincerity?]

You're both talented women and I trust in your abilities to be able to compliment my own weaknesses. I hope to hear back from you, but the invitation will always be opened.

capturespecialist

[Not for the first time, Crystal's glad she got her PokéGear wired to the network. Of course, it's the first time she's actually posting (phoning?) to it... though she sounds as confident as if she was doing it for the tenth or twelfth time.]

A friend posed a challenge to me about a month ago [which was obviously his mistake] to do a few things while I'm here: to explore the city, to get a[nother] hobby, and to go out on a date.

[She's spent the better part of the month exploring whatever she hasn't. Of course, it probably won't be good enough for Silver -- she's not into finding places for secret hideouts or niches no one expects. She's fine with just what she can get on the street, unless someone wants to pull her around elsewhere! So asking Crystal to go explore a city? Not the greatest idea. Honestly, trying to figure out where to begin was the hard part.]

I've got the first part covered, but I'm not interested in a lot of things as far as hobbies. Would anyone be willing to tell me what they're interested in? I'd like to try anything you can offer.

[...On review, that question's really lackluster, but there's no super catchy way to ask "hey what are you hobbies" to a city-wide network of people.

~~She's also taking offers on the date thing but let's get the hobby part out of the way all right.~~]

heretic_hamlet

[Surprisingly, his first appearance on the screen comes compliments of a streetside public terminal... but if the presence of those two man-sized, flightless birds beside him- one yellow-feathered, the other red- was any indication, then maybe an indoor terminal wasn't the best option.]

I... know not how many of you are familiar with Chocobos, but this past Christmas Saeng Seong had decided to make a gift of my old companions from my homeland. Try as I might, I could not find such space in my room as to shelter them...

[As he speaks, the red one takes it upon itself to preen his cowlick down against his scalp. ...It springs back into its usual position seconds later, to the bird's irritation.]

...and ordinarily they would be content to make themselves scarce, but I fear they've a need for a bit more help than I can provide.

[The yellow one nudges something closer below the frame, and Ramza breaks the red one's further efforts to smooth his hair as he stoops over to pick it up... when he returns to frame, his arms are full with a single enormous egg, which he'd already swaddled in a blanket.]

...Persephone was gravid when she'd arrived, and the winter's chill leaves little hope for nesting. But nor can I hope to house-- [All three of them peer offscreen in tandem.] --four eggs on my own. To rear one is no small task to take and no small favor to ask, I know, but if any of you could offer to adopt them, we would be indebted to you.

((OOC: Here it is! Check out the announcement or info post for more details! And if you don't want to be entered into the drawing, that's fine too; I'm sure these birds could use help in any number of ways... ))

wallcrawler

[Pete had been a bit of a recluse since the whole "ghost" thing, but considering what time of year it was, he thought it was about time to change that. And with the string of departures that just hit the city, and how some people were taking them, he thought it might be best if he shared a little bit of celebrations from home.]

So...I don't know how many of you from Earth, or even my version of it, but I've been keeping track of the date, and there'd be a holiday coming up. We call it Thanksgiving, and it's basically a time to spend with your friends and family, and basically be grateful for what you have. Company included.

So, if anyone feels up for it, I figure we might as well celebrate it here, too. For everyone. Even if we've never met before, we're all in this together, right? We're all a long way from home, and definitely missing some people that matter to us. There's probably no better time to be thankful for what we do have, and just try to help each other out.

I figure we could use one of the common rooms for the apartment buildings for Thanksgiving dinner, with a little work. Not much, just moving everything around, and making sure there's enough room for everybody. It's not like it's a big celebration or anything, it's more about spending time with people than...well, partying, I guess. Not that any of us would turn down the good cheer. I mean, Christmas is next on the list, so killing the spirit a little early would probably be a bit mean.

Anyway. I could use some help preparing, mostly with the food, but I just wanted to say the offer's open to everyone. Humans, aliens...and, well, all the other kinds of non-humans alike. It's for everybody, and I mean that.

[And he knew there were plenty of varieties of non-human present, he just didn't know what name they'd prefer. There was at least one mer-person (?) that he'd met here, a few aliens, and even a potential goddess. He was still gonna default to giving Cupid the benefit of the doubt on that one, if only because he was convinced that sort of perkiness wasn't humanly possible.]

If you want to show up, just let me know. You don't have to bring anything, and you won't owe anybody any favors. Consider it an invitation to be part of the family. I mean, we're all here together, right? In a way, we kind of are like one big family.

[A really, really extended one.]

I just want to make sure we can make room for you when you get here. Nobody deserves to be left out.
