[Surprise! For once, Lightning is not in full armor, but in civilian clothing. A beige long-sleeved top in fact, from what can be seen in the video.]

This is Lightning-- I work at the chocobo barn. [Actually, it's a little obvious, with the small bright red feather in her pink hair.] I heard there was another nest of eggs while I was away, and some people have already claimed them.

If you're one of the owners of the chicks from whatever batch, or you just own one of the chocobos in the barn, let me know, so I can keep track of how many birds we have here, and who they're with. [And so she wont glare at you suspiciously if she sees you visit the barn or wander around with a chick.]

-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-]

[Ramza's standing before the Chocobo barn's open doors, and he's looking more than a little bit wearied as the feed begins broadcasting from the nearby terminal. More likely than not it has something to do with the three large, pale, ovoid shapes clearly visible in a nest within, with his red chocobo Persephone casually watching over them.

A saddled and yellow-feathered one, Boco, soon strides over, some dry grass and straw in his beak.]

Valentine's day, it seems, had gotten the better of these two as well... You've been passing generous, one and all, and both her prior clutch and the new one need not fear for snow or lack of nesting; I think it only fitting I return the favor one way or another.

[Ramza gives a cursory glance back as Boco begins padding out the nest, and returns his gaze to the terminal with a quiet sigh. Yet as soon as Ramza's sight is back toward the camera, Boco pauses, seemingly curious.]

...There's three eggs this time. The chicks can be a handful even more than the grown birds, but hand-reared they're adored as pets and mounts alike, and I offer them up to any capable hands or warm homes who would have them, with my blessings and gratitude.

If you have an interest in fostering them, I would hear it, and I will draw lots as before. And- should you need aid in caring for or hatching the eggs, I can aid you. Gold, as well; he's well-practiced in the matter.

[Persephone soon joins in her mate's curiosity; and, after a bit of nosing around between the eggs, Boco finally pulls out a small kitten by the nape of its neck. The two birds share a look of confusion that Ramza is quick to join as he turns around.]

...How did--

[The feed cuts for the moment.]

((OOC: It's that time again!

[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?

[Seventeen mortal days. Seventeen days and he had yet to find a way out of here. So many of his plans seemingly ruined by a group of mortals with more power than they rightfully should have. He had looked and crept around, looking for whatever brought him here, but there were no buildings as conspicuous as the Bi-fröst or any devices as strange as the device to harness the Teseract. In fact, they couldn't have the Teseract, that was safely on Asgard, and there should be no other mystical artifacts like it in the universe.

So, how did he come to be here? After much debate, Loki decided to turn to his fellow prisoners. He did not do so without much thought, what were the chances of any of these having even an infinitesimal amount of knowledge of multi-dimensional, magical physics? He has found an access point for the network, and is sitting as comfortably as possible, when he feels quite ill. In fact, as soon as he turns on the feed, he sneezes... straight into a teacup, splashing brown liquid in his face. Oops, it appears that this god of mischief hasn't been keeping up with the required amount of physical contact]

My apologies. [he manages to get a handkerchief from his pocket and wipe his nose. He has been ill in the past, but his is different, he can feel his powers drain and he feels tired. This is more than the sniffles] What diseases are native to this land? Has anyone made an advance study of them?

[a violent shiver knocks the video askew. You can see the library of building 2 before Loki rights it] If any know what will cure this dreadful cold, I would be grateful to hear your advice.

[he clears his throat, which had gone a little hoarse] Now, for the other reason of this message. I am forced to conclude that this universe is not the universe I am from. Unless one has found whatever device or artifact was used to bring us here.

If any would like to discuss this or offer advice for this cold, I can be found in the library of apartment building two. [never let it said he couldn't play polite]

[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... ))

[Maybe you've seen them around town: Posters made of construction paper in varied colors, each with small drawings of cats, dogs, rabbits and reindeer all over the sides. But now whoever had been putting them up all over Saeng Seong had placed one against one of the video terminals and used a screencap function, effectively advertising in every medium this oh so mysterious person can think of. With the drawings and color reads the following:]

Need a special gift for Christmas, New Years, Birthdays or Just Because?
It's all good. The Black Condor Crafter is now taking commissions for:

-Clothing (Hats, scarves, gloves, oven mitts, aprons, etc)
-Dolls (Any person or animal from your world or theirs, any size)
-Accessories and Odds & Ends (Cozies, brooches, charms, necklaces, bracelets)

Cost? Price of materials only. Not here to make money off this.

Sound good? Leave a message on this channel, make it private. We can deliver to you or whoever it's made for.

[Oh, a new face on the Network. But this one's sporting a frown and a black eye. Despite that and the black eye looking relatively fresh, he seems to be all too cool with circumstances.]

Good evening. I don't normally lean on such public network choices- I prefer something more face-to-face- but I felt it was prudent that I offer my apologies for my actions during that unusual rainstorm that occurred just a few days ago. But WHY the rain made us all sing, I can't even fathom...

But alongside such apologies I want to offer my gratitude to the individuals I encountered during my in-hindsight foolish choice in swimming venue and beforehand, and in turn offer an invitation: Yamagishi-san, Natsuki-san, Iori-san and Cupid-san... thank you. [With that, he dipped into as much of a bow as he can manage at the terminal.]

I had considered having a Hot Pot in the midst of the frigid weather, but it's common knowledge that such things taste far better when eaten with friends. As such, I would like for you to join me. I will provide the ingredients.

[For a moment he looks proud, beaming.] And worry not! The Ryugazaki family, you'll find, has a superb recipe for the best Hot Pot broth that I think you'll all appreciate. It is, however, a secret I keep locked tightly away in memory, so you'll have no luck getting it out of me!

[But he brings a hand to his mouth, clears his throat, and looks away.] But until the night in question...

[The other hand sheepishly lifts a very broken pair of red-framed glasses into view. No wonder he was squinting a little.]

...Where might I have these repaired?

ofwesternwinds

[So. It's raining.

Nevermind the odd and frankly bizarre side effect the rain seems to cause, but nevertheless during this time of the month? It's also freezing. Both are a unique combination this kid is not used to, being from what practically amounts as a desert planet. Naturally a cold was bound to happen sooner or later, and it doesn't help that he hasn't exactly met his physical contact quota recently; although, he hasn't quite taken that part into account yet.

So, when he makes a post, he sticks with text for now. Trying to speak - let alone sing - with a cold was already enough as it is.]

Does anyone know good ways for dealing with a cold? Specifically any home remedies that've worked for you in the past?

[He's about to type more when suddenly a sneeze abruptly cuts off that train of thought. ... It's a good thing he went with text here!]

Anything you have to offer would be appreciated.
