Owe Hope some energy.

Need at least three people to tell me what brings them hope.

( This is, of course, all delivered in the most enthusiastic sounding tone you've ever heard.

[The post opens with a startling image of Caedra, frozen in ice on one of the islands' many rocky beaches. With it comes a text attachment.]

The demonness, Caedra, has been brought to justice. Let her icy prison be a warning to those who would harm and torment others, and to those who feel they are free of consequences, simply because they have power others do not.

There are those who will fight back. You will be stopped.

To those who lived in fear of her, you have thirty days of respite.


[There's no distinguishing mark, no calling card, either in the post or the image. He acted independently of the Phantom Thieves, after all, so he should behave as such.]

Not having anyone around can really make you realise how much you're used to having company, huh?

[Julie gives a small half-smile, but it doesn't really follow up to her eyes. She shrugs one shoulder and huffs out a breath, looking away from the camera.]

This place is really getting in the way of shit I'm trying to plan, but uh-- Where was I going with this. Oh, yeah.

[She looks back to the camera. This time, the smile has a bit of extra warmth.]

I guess I'm looking for a roommate? I've been kind on my own here since R got out. I've got two spare rooms, and I don't really want to move because all my shit is here now, so...

[Another awkward shrug.]

Yeah, that's it. Hit me up if you're interested.

[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!

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.]

Hadriel!

[Ianchus is almost breathless, excitement flushing his face as he speaks rapidly to the camera. His eyes are practically glinting.]

I've had the most wonderful idea. A party--a celebration! Of all of you, of us!

It'll be at the Hot Springs--ah, Lady Rey, would you be so kind as to grant me some barrels of your alcohol? And I'll arrange transportation from any other islands, of course. I would hope that anybody with a boat would be so kind as to share it.

[His words are imploring, and yet somehow give a hint that there's no room for argument.]

Please come! You are all invited! Come, drink, be merry, revel in yourselves, in each other! What better place than our own open-air springs, no?

...Ah, and food, there will be food too. From the orchards, and from our little stores, of course--but bring whatever you wish! Still, I assure you, I will take full responsibility as host to ensure that you've all you need!

So! Please! It will begin...ah, tonight, then, tonight! At the eighteenth hour!

[He pulls back and gives the camera a little bow, still grinning.

He never did mention when it would end.]

[Have you missed him? Sorrow graces the network of Hadriel once more, and just like every other time, he's calm, composed. Even death can't seem to shake him.]

It's time for a relocation.

[Straight to business, as always.]

Fear was acting quickly when he moved the city to the homeworld of our original hosts, but this is hardly an environment that I'd approve of staying in for too long. I understand that many of you longed to be free from the underground caverns, but we were safer there. Here- we're vulnerable, exposed to Null scans, and without cover. As such, I've instructed Fear to move the city immediately.

[There's a pause, as he considers- though of course, he's already thought this part through.]

Of our four underground cities that we moved between, the Null have located two. It's possible that Delight has told them the location of the other two. Therefore, our remaining options are the surfaces of the other planets- places that provide more tactical advantages when it comes to hiding and potentially fighting the Null. With that being said, there are three options that come to mind immediately. Listen closely- I am allowing you to decide which location best suits your purposes, both for hiding and for a potential battle.

• The first is a planet that is far colder than this one. Temperatures are often below freezing, which inhibit's the Null's ability to scan for life. This was the planet where we made first contact with the Null, as well as the first planet they attacked. Some of our embassies may still remain, with information about our alliance and about the Null that were lost to us.

• The second is a planet with far more life than this one. The city location is overrun by various plants and animals, which will provide adequate cover to hide from the Null, though they may prove dangerous to you. The area is lush and humid and it rains quite often- flooding is a possibility.

• As for the third... the planet's surface is roughly ninety-two percent water, making it one of the few places the Null would not care to look. The inhabitable areas are rocky islands, with some aquatic life and a few plants further inland. This planet is where many of my elders resided, and at one point, I visited here often to learn of the history of my species. The Null destroyed all of our structures and every artifact here that they could find, but they did not find all of them. This is where I instructed Fear to find the Door.

These are the options we have available to us right now. I trust you'll choose wisely.

[He'd end it there, but- well, there's an elephant in the room here, isn't there?]

Additionally. Thank you.

I understand that the motivation to resurrect me was largely due to my knowledge of the Door and your desire to return home, but all the same... I was forced again to consider the possibility of failure. When I- when the Null destroyed me, I had to come to terms with the thought that this was the end of our efforts.

Because of all of you, it was not.

I owe you a debt. I won't forget that.

[the video opens on Margaery in the Sewing Shop, dressed of course to impress and show off her work. what is unusual is that she's holding a sword in her lap and that the Shop looks like it's been scrubbed from ceiling to floor and everything in between.

what may also be unusal to those who can notice such things, there have been magical wards placed around the Shop to deter violence and keep certain types of beings out.

Margaery smiles welcomingly at the camera, although those who know her well enough can tell that it's a little forced]


Hello, everyone! The Sewing Shop is open again to attend to your needs. Can you not find what you're looking for in the shops? Or are you just plain sick of wearing the same things day in, day out? Come in and request whatever you need. The only payment I require is a bolt of fabric from Tranquility.

I also give sewing lessons to those who wish to learn.

[to Washington and Kelson]

I have what you requested ready for you to pick up at any time. I hope to see you soon.

You should have just killed me.

[Did you expect her to be thankful? Delight's text post comes a little belatedly after the poll has been closed and isn't quite the pleasant cheeriness that some of you have come to expect from her.]

I died the moment you saved Hope. We all did. This is just prolonging the inevitable.

I don't much care what you think of my decision or my actions. I tried to save what I could. I planned Hope's assassination for months, negotiated with the beings that killed everything I knew, traded the life of someone I adore very much- all to save my other allies and to save you. This was not a decision made quickly or lightly and I will not be made to regret doing what I felt was right.

I see now that I was too optimistic. You could not be made to lay down your weapons for a more peaceful arrangement- I suppose I should have known better, considering how antagonistic you've been. Still, I had to at least try. Nobody else would.

There's nothing more to say, save for this- don't rely on the other gods to save you. Fear will turn his back at the first opportunity and Hope will not fight alongside you. The others will use you how they see fit. What opportunity for survival you may have had with the Null has faded now. You're on your own.

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.]

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.

[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?]

Are those strange dream incidents still occuring? I must apologise to those who became caught up in mine. It was not my intention to have you see any of that.

More importantly, I would like to ask if anyone knows where in the city I might find art supplies, or if you have any of your own you would allow me to use. Thus far I've found little of any value, and what is an artist without art?

If I cannot paint, I will be bereft of purpose. Perhaps I will simply wither away, like a plant without sunlight... A fitting end for one trapped in a cave...

[The camera opens to two newcomers who might already seem familiar--Richie, with his absurdly large and extremely magnified glasses, and Eddie, the kid with the cast. Richie speaks first, naturally, and clears his throat in the most dramatic way he can muster. From the looks of it, they’re in one of the apartments.]

Okay. So. There’s this zoo, and in the zoo, there’s this elephant.

Wait, what? [ To his credit, Eddie’s already looking unimpressed. A new record.] Richie, no, no-one wants to hear about the elephant -

--I’m warming them up. Okay, There’s this elephant, and one day, he goes up to the camel, right? And the elephant, he says ‘Hey, camel, why do you have two boobs on your back?’ [ He adjusts his glasses, leaning forward: ] And the camel, he replies, ‘that’s a stupid question coming from someone who has a dick on his face!’

Ugh. For fuck sake, Richie. We’re meant to be telling them about the clown and shit, not listening to your stupid jokes. I should have known better, if you do that again I’m going to turn this thing off.. Are we going to tell them about the horror story from the sewers or what?

Alright. Alright, alright. But did you hear about how they made the clown’s shoes?

I swear Richie, this is important, people can get eaten and you’re making shitty jokes. That’s it how do you turn this thing off? [ And yup, Eddie’s already squinting at the camera, looking for an obvious off button.]


It was no small feat! [ Richie’s response? Smack Eddie away from the camera and nearly shove him off in the process. ] What’s the difference between a tire and 365 used condoms?

[ Eddie takes that smack with a bit of dignity, only to lose the last shred of it as he hits Richie back for it.] No-one cares, all you’re doing is making yourself look seriously uncool. The point, Richie, we need to get to the point before they feed us to the trees for your bad jokes.

[ Richie, completely undisturbed, licks his finger. ] One’s a GoodYear and one’s a great year! [ And that wet finger? Straight to Eddie’s ear in retaliation for that smack. ]

[ That is one of the most disgusting things Eddie could experience. Apologies Hadriel, this kid has had it and all he can do is yelp, flinch away and then hit Richie harder for his sins. Richie falls, howling with laughter, and so does the camera being held in his hand--and there’s a thunk and a crack as Richie obviously lands poorly, and the laughter abruptly stops. The camera launches forward, being thrown, and hits Eddie square between the eyes by means of shutting off. If anyone’s still listening by this point, Richie’s voice screaming fuck you is the last thing heard. ]
