My dear Citizens of Hadriel,

I'm glad to see that our circumstances haven't prohibited you from forming bonds with each other. On the other hand, aren't those same bonds difficult to navigate at times? I'm not only speaking of romantic bonds, either. Sexual, familial, bonds of camaraderie...

And I've no doubt our predicament is a unique stressor that can strain those bonds as well. And so many of you are suffering in silence. And it isn't just the present bonds, either, is it? Many of you are shadowed by your pasts, as well.

I want to offer myself as a supportive shoulder. If you've been seeking a second opinion, or advice, or anything of the sort, please, consider this an open invitation.

I care not to find out about your secrets; if you'd prefer to speak privately or anonymously, I will not begrudge you, nor doubt the sincerity of your claim.

I only seek to provide succor to those who have been needing it. Love can be...rather difficult to talk about it, can't it?

[The whole Fear event was massively tiring for Komaeda. Both physically and mentally. He decides to shut himself house for a few days, trying to recover his health. Nobody needs to know. They've got other things to worry about more than him. Besides, if they discover how truly worried he was, it could end very badly.

Even so, he has to check on the people who called him their friend and make sure they are okay. That they are not dead or they have not actually left the city for good.]

Well, that was certainly an eventful few days. Or shall I say uneventful, depending on your opinion? Either way, it's wonderful that everyone is back! Or most of us anyway. [At least he hopes that the people who called him his friends are back.] It was certainly a massively trying ordeal. However, perhaps we can look at this in a positive light? Even if it wasn't intentional on Fear's part, one might say it was a test to see how we could work together and merge our hopes together into one and let it shine over the darkness of despair!

And in the end, our efforts did pay off. Hope did come after all! The city is back to normal. What a wonderful relief!

Filtered individually to Hinata, Drake, Yusuke, and Akira.

At least that's what I think. What about you? If you're still around, that is. [TL;DR - he's worried you're not.]

[for once, not using voice or video. He doesn't want to appear weak and, well, his voice is already raspy enough, don't want to lose it]

quick survey, who is feeling ill? from the cases I've seen this could be a widespread outbreak but I don't want the lot of you turning up at the clinic and infecting each other unless it's serious.

rest and fluids unless you have a serious fever, aches, or trouble breathing. I have medications to relieve some symptoms but nothing to cure it.

caution: I cannot find a source of the infection. it behaves like influenza but there is no virus to be found. believe me I've tried. lack of virus may mean it won't actually spread but I have a very bad feeling about this. I haven't been ill since I was thirteen and yet it got me. I should be able to remove viruses from my system but there is nothing to remove. that means this is dangerous. an epidemic, maybe.

[yeah there's that paranoia setting in...]

limit contact with the ill unless it's an emergency. don't come crying to me if your nose is a little runny, I don't want to see you unless you're about to die.

[Prussia is finally getting set to fix his communication problem, and he knows it'll be a cinch! He swallowed his pride and turned to a god for help, since it didn't seem like it was going to clear up on its own. He went to Tranquility to see what he could do. This might seem like an odd choice for Prussia out of all the gods, but honestly it's because he thought Tranquility would go easiest on him, and he can be so very, very lazy.

So far, ol' Gil thinks he's right. Just a few favors! Couldn't be more simple! Except, he still can only speak in German, so like 90% of folks in Hadriel can't understand him. How is he even going to tell people he needs to help them without being able to talk to them? No matter. He'll figure it out.

After some thought, Prussia decides that the best time to help people is when the newbie flood arrives. Continuing on his laziness streak, he's going to approach what he thinks look like easy targets. How does he do that? By hiding behind the few scant rocks or trees, or maybe the corner of a building, and watching you do whatever it is you're up to. Of course, longer-term residents aren't escaping his sight, either. If someone looks like they need help with literally anything, whether you really do or not, Prussia's following you.

If you're feeling like you're being watched, it's because you actually are. Turn around, and you'll see red eyes peering at you from nearby, and when caught, Prussia leaps out from behind his hiding spot and enthusiastically proclaims something you probably don't understand.]

Lassen Sie mich Ihnen helfen!

[After the last post debacle, she's being only a tiny bit more careful. Just a tiny bit.

Though she sounds bored if not with a faint hint of curiosity in her tone.]

Probably not the best time for this, but I have to ask now that I've poked around a little. How many of you here are older than, say, a thousand years or so? I'm just curious.

On another note, what are your thoughts on the... captors, I suppose, feeding on the various emotions as it were? Such a thing isn't really... uncommon where I'm from, so it's always interesting to see a new side to it from those not as familiar. We have another name for them, as well, but that is something I'll leave to all of you to be curious about.

Though I'm sure someone here could enlighten you on the term if she so felt inclined.

[day 2 of the dust storm and...yo, Hadriel, Dr. Asshole needs a favor]

I don't suppose there's anyone who can give me a hand with something.

[he shifts the video from himself, past an enormous black flag tacked to his wall, to a gaping hole in the wall of his apartment. There's already a fine layer of dust collecting like drifting snow around the edges of the floor.]

My place took some damage in the Null battle. Fixing it wasn't exactly a priority until right about now, and I'm not exactly a carpenter.

If anyone can take care of this so I don't have to sleep in the hallway outside, that'd be great. In return I can use my ability to teleport you in and out, or anywhere else in the city.

[but Law, why can't you just find a new apartment? He has reasons, okay.]

While we debate over Delight's fate, I would like to share what little I can offer to provide relief to everyone.

[The camera pans over to one of the various pools of water, which is partially frozen over.]

The heat will melt it soon enough, and the ice magic itself is only temporary. But for anyone in need of ice or cold water, I can provide it. Meet me by Hope's pool if you wish to make use of such an offer.

[Belatedly, he realises he should explain himself--] My name is Fox. I apologise for wishing to remain anonymous, but you will easily identify me by the mask you see now.

[Perhaps the secrecy is excessive, and anyone perceptive enough might identify him by voice, regardless. But he wants to keep both his powers and his secret identity, well, secret, particularly when it's become harder to know who to trust since Delight's betrayal. A Phantom Thief can never be too careful.]

[locked to Mokuba]

Are you well? If you're ready to begin training, please let me know.

All right, guys. I guess you probably already know where this is going. I managed to catch Delight before she could get out of here, so now we just have to decide what to do with her. Needless to say, we can't agree, and anyway what she did hurt you guys just as much as it did us.

So this decision is gonna be up to you. Obviously there are some options that aren't available - we're not just gonna let her go free. That would be pretty dumb, right? But a lot of us don't want the more extreme options, either.

We'll tell you how we feel in a reply to this. Think about it yourselves, and vote. You'll have about a week to decide.

Man. This sucks.

[The screen pixelates when the transmission starts, and continues to be distorted for another few seconds before Alphys appears in a burst of static. It's a hackneyed attempt at getting the Null out from this post, but not foolproof. When the feed starts, it's obvious she's in the lab, but it's an absolute wreck; there are hastily patched holes in the walls with rocks and rubble, and it's obvious the Null have been through already in the days previous. The camera is set on her worktable, broadcasting from about her waist up, and in front of her is a number of papers, debris, and recognizably one of the Null's central processors, removed from a discarded body.

She looks scared. Horribly so. But she can't keep hiding when the sky's falling down.]

Okay, so, uh-- hey, uhm, I'm Alphys, Dr. Alphys, and I do... robot things, sometimes, so--

[She fidgets with her hands, looks around on the table for something, and grabs the processor, showing it to the camera.]

I managed to remove this from, uhm, one of the Null, and I think I might've made some k-kill codes for them? They'll only work once and, uh, the network will probably adapt, but these should freeze their processors for a little bit, or at least some in, uh, a range-- hook it up to something that broadcasts and it should disable them for a minute or two. They've only got one use though so uh, sorry if someone already gets them.

[She grabs the device, clicking in a few buttons and a file is attached, containing five or six long executable files.]

I think I can work their weapons to another power source, too, so... if you have a-anything, I can try to make it fire, but I can't leave the lab.

[Just as she says that, there's a loud bang outside, and she winces, ducking down behind the desk as the device falls on it's side, displaying only her eyes, head spines, and the tips of her fingers holding the counter.]

And uh if no one's doing anything it would be great if someone could uh, clear them out? For a bit? They haven't found me in here yet, but uhm, it's been... not great!

[There's another noise, and she squeaks a bit, grabbing the device and ducking behind the counter. She tries to smile at the feed, but she still looks very, very nervous.]

Thanks! Uh. G-Good luck!

[Here's a face that's new to the network, but not new to town. Raidou has been here for four months already, but he's not exactly the chatty type. He's never felt a reason to talk to the network, until today. He's posting this from the arcade portion of the speakeasy, where the many bleeps and bloops of the machines can be heard around him.

There's a moment where he looks really hesitant about doing this. Recording yourself just seemed weird to him. What was he supposed to say to start this off?]

Good afternoon. My name is Raidou Kuzunoha. I know a lot of people here have been offering their assistance with combat training, and I'm here to do the same. I'd like to set up a class where I can teach people how to use a katana. While the armory does have several, I'd rather not have new students using sharpened blades. Would there be anyone who would be able to help create some practice swords? I don't have a lot of woodworking experience myself... Ah, and of course, if you wish to join for practice, do let me know. It's getting more important here every day that people know how to defend themselves.

Ah, also. Would anyone like to play some of these arcade games? I've been playing a few, and I think I'm doing rather well with some of them. [He swings the camera around to show the high scores on the Space Invaders machine. He has the top score, beating second place by a wide margin. In the space for your initials, he's put R14. If you look at the top scores for each game, he's listed in the top 5 on all of them. Anyone up for a challenge?]

[ There are no Duel Disks here, no one seems to have heard anything about Duel Monsters either... If Kaiba was here, he'd be already throwing a fit, and he'd be trying to make disks out of thin air and selling them to everyone.

...

Atem would be the first in line, but you didn't hear that coming from him.

Anyway, since this place doesn't seem to know about fun, he might as well ask the most important of questions. ]

wht do people do for fun hear?

[ Good Osiris, Atem, you shouldn't have fallen asleep during Yuugi's classes, stop playing games and go back to school... Mahaad would be so mortified to see this... ]

[The video opens up on the library and someone is clearly adjusting the camera: she's not that good with technology and she just failed to fix everything before starting... but it doesn't matter does it? The green haired woman trots in the middle of the screen and waves to the wall behind the camera (Gods, technology makes her feel like an idiot every time) before clearing her throat and holding up a book that has probably seen better days: the cover is covered in mold, the book itself is still dripping water, not exactly the best sight.]

Greetings, citizens of the underworld! I'm Rydia and I'm speaking to you all from our... lovely library. If you've been here before you probably know this is the state of most books in this place, others are written in some gibberish language no one managed to translate so far- at least as far as I know- and the rest is either burnt or talks about the most mundane things I've ever seen. I mean, if the census of all cats in Kanzas 1850-1860 -now with names- is your cup of tea I'm not going to judge but... definitely not mine

[And, without too many compliments she dumps the old tome she was holding on the left] But- in this sea of disappointment there is a light... [Rydia holds up a tome, like trying to build excitement over such a boring thing, and slowly opens it revealing white pages.] some of them are blank.

Now, I'm not saying books are the most exciting thing one can work with but it's something we can have here to pass the most boring days between one of the supposed Gods [Much sarcasm here] decides to play a prank on us. How? We can write books ourselves.

We all come from different places, have different backgrounds and different cultures, this would be a wonderful way to share pas of what who we are with the others. And we can create cheap and easy entertainment for everyone. It's not necessary being real writers and if you don't know how to... you could just come here, I volunteer in taking care of the writing part of it. I... oh, and if you have issues reading I will be glad to help with that too, of course!

[She's starting to feel really awkward talking like this...]

That's all, I think. Let me know if anyone would be intersted in contribuiting, I will try to write something myself... Thanks for listening, have a good day!

[Have a somehow embarassed wave... and look her get up, drop her 'transmitting device' on the floor and swear (At least for a Feymarchian, it's something about 'Leviathan's balls') before finally being able to turn it off.]
