Hello. My name is Lucretia.

I know things are rough right now, and that we're all preparing for - well, for war, maybe. And I don't want to diminish the importance of that, or the work that anyone is doing. We need to be ready for whatever happens.

But I think we've all been a little stressed lately, and there's nothing like a shitty work-life balance to kill productivity, you know? And - it may not be midsummer here, but it sure feels like it.

So. Two days from now, there will be an Ice Festival in the imported housing district, outside building 4-3. [ It's just her backyard. This is very professional, it's fine. ] Anyone is welcome. I only ask that everyone maintain a minimum level of civility. If you have a beef with someone, leave it at the door.

Food and entertainment will be provided, but if anyone knows any ice spells and would be willing to help out, please feel free to volunteer.

This is BYOB. Any questions, let me know. Thank you.

[The girl on the screen has pale skin, straight black hair and deep, vividly violet eyes that all but bore into anyone who meets them. Her expression, though, is mild and unassuming, with a hint of sullenness around the eyes.]

Hi. My name is Poison. I don't think many of you really know me. [And that is by design. She spends much of her time alone, and that's perfectly fine with her.]

I've been away from home for what feels like a very long time. Where I come from... I write stories. Stories of the things real people do in their lives. [Poison stops here, just for a moment, to brush her hair back over her shoulders.]

And you know, not every part of everyone's life is important. Not important enough for the Hierophant's archives. But I think that a lot of people don't know that your whole life doesn't have to be important. Sometimes, what I get to write is only a month, or a week out of a person's life, but it's the impact that time has on the world that matters.

[Her lips purse, then she smiles briefly.]

I miss doing that. Watching people shape the lives of others. Most of the time they didn't even realise they were doing it until it was nearly over. So... I'd like to hear yours, if you'd tell me. What you think the most important part of your life was... or will be. [Poison rests her chin on the heel of her hand, and lifts her slim brows.]

What's your story?

[Aqua looks pensive, troubled as she addresses the network. This isn't the way she wanted to do this, but one can't change the past. No one knows that better than she does.]

I've been wanting to apologize to many of you. I've been putting it off, out of embarrassment, but that's cowardly of me. I know....I hurt some of you, before we moved to this world. And I'm told that it's not entirely my fault, that such...effects....have happened to people here before, but that doesn't matter. They were still my actions.

I'm sorry.

[She bows her head briefly.]

I also wanted to ask a question that I know there may not be an answer to. Before I came here, I was alone for a very, very long time. I'm told it was more than ten years, but time didn't really exist where I was, so I don't know for sure.

I met some boys who came through the Door after I did, who came from the same worlds. They told me a little about what's waiting for me there, if I make it home from where I was trapped, and from here, and then they were gone. I'd like to know....is there any meaning at all behind those who come here, and those who leave again? I feel like there must be a reason that I was bought here, that they were. But maybe that's just wishful thinking.

[She lets out a long breath.]

My name is Master Aqua. I may not have been here as long as some of you, but the dangers we're facing, the storm to come...I'll fight beside you. And do my best to make sure that we all make it through.

I have a request.

This may already be common knowledge, but the creatures that attacked you on this world are in fact what remains of our original host species. I thought they were all dead - we all did. Thanks to the efforts of some of you, we now know there are some still alive, and that they were cruelly experimented on and damaged by the Null.

I cannot allow them to continue as they are, in pain and lashing out around them. I ask that you capture them, as humanely and gently as possible, and bring them to my temple. I have created a place for them to live below it, and I will be able to heal them there. Once they're in my proximity, they should no longer be violent.

We will be leaving this world soon. I must save as many of them as I can. Though they attacked you, they're blameless in all of this, and they have always been a non-violent species. They attacked out of fear and pain.

I know that you will not wish to help me for no reason, so for each of the hosts you are able to bring me, I will grant you either a blessing or a gift of another kind, if it's within my power.

Thank you.

[ The recording opens with Donut standing in front of his bed that's currently covered in an ocean of flower petals. Beside him stands a decorated bike that holds a few bouquets. ]

Hey guys! Private Donut here from the popular Bluehaus with another friendly PSA.

As you all know, it's February and that means love is in the air! For those of you unfamiliar with Earth lingo, this is the month we celebrate a little thing called Valentine's Day! It's a day when a guy in a diaper named Cupid hits you with an arrow and BAM! Instant love at first sight! Isn't it great?!

[ He vibrates with giddy delight. ]

Well! I've been hard at work collecting all sorts of seeds in anticipation and now it's time for all of them to bloom! As your friendly neighborhood Flower God, I'll be making fresh bouquets for anyone who wants them! And this month only [ he throws his hands out to show off the bike - TADA! ] -
I'll be making home deliveries!

You just tell me what you'd like and [he starts reciting the postal service motto ] neither snow nor rain nor heat nor gloom of night stays this Flower God from swift delivery! I got all sorts of bouquets for all tastes! There's your friendship ones, your first date ones, pure love, wild love, going steady, and all sorts of other ones for every occasion!

So... [ Here he rocks back on his heels, his hands behind his back. ] I was thinking, if any of you have a little time to spare next month, maybe you can help me set-up a real flower shop and help me move-in upstairs? You know what they say, it takes a village.

[ He keeps rocking back and forth on his heels, buzzing with so many vibrant emotions they spill over and behind him the larkspur flowers start to bloom. Reds and blues. Purples. Whites. A whole rainbow of colors come to life. ]

Either way, I love Valentine's Day, so I'd do this for free! [ He smiles before remembering - ] I'll be accepting orders all month!

[ He waves at the recording. ]

Happy Hearts!

[Just ignore the fact this dingdong is clearly outside and just sort of perched on whatever bench he could manage to find. With a violin pretty clearly strapped to his back.]

Been... sort of lurking on this whole thing, I guess. But I have a question about this place in general and the people here? Is being dead and now... not being dead sort of a thing that happens here a lot or do you get attacked by whatever death squad to drag you back to the afterlife or whatever for being a fluke in the system?

Just asking... for... a friend?

[He's pausing for a brief moment, not quite sure if he should add more after this or what. But there's no reason not to, right?]

Anyone happen to have a use for a musician around here or I guess a bard in general? Been sitting around for far too long and I don't have to anymore.

[ Now that Emily's apartment drapes are done pretending to be shitty ghosts and that one fork is done banging around in the drawer, she can address a very important matter. ]

you guys want coffee again, right? good coffee, stuff to get you warm and wide awake in this fucking tundra

lmk if the thought makes you feel hopeful so i can tell hope it's worth his time to give me back the coffee cart my friends and i used to have. i'll put you down as a priority on my coffee route if you help

[ That's it. She's just doing this for the coffee tbh, sorry abt her. ]

[ ooc: also i apologize for her, weeps ]
