Uh, hey everyone.

[Someone sounds sort of sheepish, mostly to hide the distress that comes from being on the receiving end of being revived.]

I wish I could say that I'd died doing something really worthwhile to help out, but I didn't, it was an anomaly. But I'm-- I'm okay now, I can't even figure out what I've lost. I've tried thinking through all my life but none of my memories seem to be gone, and I've still got all my senses, and I still look like me. I'm kind of scared that there isn't a cost, that would mean they're getting more powerful. Maybe they even have a bigger stone? Maybe they've sacrificed more people?!

[There's a brief pause, and then a more subdued voice continues.]

Okay, so-- maybe I figured it out after all, please forget what I said then. I didn't mean to talk about it so publicly where anyone could hear, especially not when the Admin really might be using philosopher's stones to resurrect people!

[Damn it! Again!]

I mean... I don't think I can lie, and it's like I'm just speaking without getting to think about it first, which is really awkward! What if I end up having a conversation with someone and I don't want to say something to them, and it comes out anyway? What if I tell Steph that I think she's really pretty? OH! Oh no...

[This is stupid. John's well aware it's stupid, but he can't help asking a question that's been gnawing away at him for more than a week now.]

How tall is everyone? I've been wondering, meeting with different people here, what the spread of heights might be. Among other things. If you aren't sure on specifics or if you don't know the measurement system, I can give you an idea of how to compare units you might be familiar with.

Stein - 6'10"
Joker - 6'5"
Magenta, Clint, Zack - 6'3"
Gabriel, House, Rhys - 6'2"
Mycroft, Castiel - 6'1"

[His fingers are blistered red still, but House doesn't care. He's wrapped them up in bandages and they were the ones he uses for strumming and picking, anyway. When the audio begins, there's no introduction, just a song. Earthians from the modern era might be able to recognize it, at least.

When it finishes, the doctor speaks.]


Martin Road Series DRSG Dreadnought. Cost me fifteen hundred bucks back home. Interesting little gift from the robo king and queen of Snowhell. I'll be taking requests from people with good tastes in music all night.

Oh, and anyone still wanna pretend that this is reality?

[Mainly because sleep is elusive.]

Hello, everyone. This is Dr. Watson. I have three announcements:
  1. Batman has died and the Joker is now free. He's presently somewhere around the residential area or possibly Hsiaoke Pass. Please use extreme caution in these areas. The Joker is an armed and dangerous criminal. He is erratic and may lash out unexpectedly. Please review his entry in the Norfinbury Survival Guide. Contact myself or Ms. Natasha Romanov if you spot him.

  2. We have successfully cured at least one patient of MN Poisoning through a blood transfusion. I am in close contact with the patient to determine if it wears off and when that happens. If you are suffering from severe MN symptoms, please contact myself or another medical professional. I was able to conduct the procedure with a syringe transfusion. This is not ideal, but it works. If anyone is in possession of an additional syringe, this would be very helpful. I've cleaned the one I have to the best of my ability, but procedures will be safer with fresh medical devices.

  3. An exchange I had with the Admin earlier today indicates that she has observed no irregularities in our appearance. For those of you with Prophet or glowing eyes, I have time-stamped video clips showing every single person alive in Norfinbury has normal eyes.
[A transcript of the full exchange and a link to the video montage of faces are attached.]
 
 
Alright, everyone, so here's what's going on! Sewing requests were and still remain open, but oh my gosh, you're all just such busy bees that you never give me the chance to give you what you've asked for. And the way I see it, the sooner we can get these clothes into your hands, the sooner you'll be warmer and the more room that we'll have to pick up fabric and make more things!

[The "we" here being her including England and America. They're not directly in her camera feed, but it's clear from how she's set up that she's not alone in the room.]

I know most of you are up in those tunnels, and I don't want to take you too far away from your work, so we're going to head up to where all the houses are and find a good place to settle down. If we can't stay somewhere that you can get to, let us know if there's a better place to meet up! Or maybe someone will be friendly enough to help run some deliveries?

[She looks distracted for a moment as she pulls out her sketchbook and begins flipping pages. After a moment, she settles on one.]

Okay! So, like, I might be missing someone here, and if I did just give me a nudge, but the people who I'm super duper sure we have things ready for right now are Davespite, Clint, Charlie, and Royce.

[Ginger takes another moment to double check that she does indeed have what she's promising to have before giving an affirming nod to the camera.]

Yeah! Great! Let us know your thoughts! We're thinking if nothing else we'll aim to head toward the House with the sewing machine--it's close to the ice tunnel entrance if you've never been there! There's a snowman out front with a hat on it, you can't miss it!

((ooc: England and America are with her, so they might be responding as well! Be sure to specify if you want to talk to someone in particular.))

[When Tifa starts the feed, she’s holding up a pair of black leather gloves. They’re surprisingly nice, and she’s wearing a pair herself.]

Hi. So, I came here wearing a black leather skirt, and Andersen was nice enough to turn them into gloves for us. We have extra pairs, so…

[Andersen’s head pokes up from the bottom of the screen. He looks slightly less grumpy for once. Maybe he feels a little better because he’s being useful in some way.]

It has nothing to do with being nice. I'm someone who hates being indebted, is all! Life is already a cage in itself. To owe someone else a favor and to prolong such a status is… ugh! It's just responsible to pay it off as quickly as possible, in my opinion!

[Tifa rolls her eyes at his protest before continuing.]

Right. We have two pairs of leather gloves, but one pair is child sized. I can trade my old regular gloves, too.

[Her eye rolling doesn’t deter his attitude one bit.]

Tifa, shouldn’t you be specific about what you want?

[She glances down at him, or more accurately, at the top of his head.]

Oh, uh… I’m open to suggestions.

[Andersen harumphs. He doesn’t address her directly and talks to the tablet instead.]

Don’t waste our time with stupid offers. That’s all I have to say.


[ooc: Replies will be coming from both Andersen and Tifa!]
 
 
I have burned down the Prophet's effigy.

[Ecks is seated against a wall next to a false fireplace turned altar that once contained a heavy wooden figure with an eye for a face. Now it contains only ashes, the wall around it scorched, the air smoky. She has stripped off her coat and armor; if anything she actually looks overheated at the moment.

Those who haven't seen Ecks before might be surprised by her patchwork skin and her monotone voice. Those who have seen her might be surprised by the relatively genuine-looking smile she pauses to display before allowing her face to go back to its natural resting blankness.

Also of note? Those creepy yellow Prophet symbol eyes.
]

It is possible that a god will smite me tonight, but I think that this was the correct thing to do.
