Network; video; un: art_with_snake
[Judging from the angle of the video, it appears to be taken with a phone on a stand poised on a table, with a good view of Tyra and the sandwiches she's making. A pitch black snake with clearly unnatural shadowy wisps coming off it is curled around her shoulder peeking at the phone.]

So those Zodiac folks decided to install a social network app on my phone, huh? Rather annoying, but there seems to be some interesting folks on there, so hi! Don't mind my making lunch for me and my kid, I'm busy about this time of night getting ready for the next day.

[She spreads mustard on top of the ham and spinach leaves and cheese, then presses a slice of wheat bread on top of that.]

I'm Tyra and I'm an art teacher. If you're a teenager or child going to school around here, you might have me teaching your art class. Maybe you know me already. Likewise if you have children of about that age, they might know me.

I also do art in my spare time. And... I've been studying a little bit of magic. It's how I got Obsidian here. [She pauses to affectionately stroke the shadowy snake.]

It looks like some of you aren't from around here. Myself, I'm a local, have been here since birth. But I've been aware of weird stuff since I was little, so this all is only a mild surprise. Why don't you tell me all about yourselves? Also, I can point out some of my favorite local spots.

WHO: August and everyone else
WHERE: Network mostly
WHEN: mid-Feb
WHAT: Two important things
WARNINGS: I mean. August swears a lot so like.

[Hello hello Kaisou, it is your friendly neighborhood bird-and-tarot guy, clearly just finishing up one of his professional readings if the fancy cloth on the table and the candles that are still smoking are any indication. It's also clear from the angle of the phone that Julian is the one who decided to get it started, since it is crooked (and also you can see a clawed foot on the edge there). There's a caw and then August just sighs, not even looking over as he finishes cleaning up.]

I said "get the phone", not "turn the camera on", Julian. Why are you like this...anyway! Everyone's just gonna have to deal with the weird angle for a bit, but there are two things I think the app at large should know about.

[He holds up one finger.]

First, if you remember earlier this month I was frustrated over everyone getting the same damn card in their readings? Yeah, happening again, but with a different card. Wheel of Fortune, upright, usually means good luck so fuck man, here's hoping. Dunno if it'll actually mean anything but let's be real, for that card I don't care.

[He holds up a second finger, and this is clearly the more important thing as he actually pauses to take the phone from Julian and hold it properly.]

Second, I have just been informed by one of my local regulars that it is Girl Scout cookie season. Her kid is selling, so if you want some keep an eye out around the stores or I can drop you the link to their online sales. If you have no idea what I'm talking about, you will soon.

WHO: Hol Horse and whatever poor fools join
WHERE: Network
WHEN: Late February
WHAT: Someone got their footing and is deciding to be a nuisance already
WARNINGS: Probably language

[That camera sure is shaking for a moment before it steadies on a man that... probably needs a different wardrobe but he seems to be leaning against a rather nice looking countertop, some kind of balcony open nearby if the wind with some of his hair and the cigarette in the corner of his mouth says anything.]

Well. Howdy there, folks. Had to get my bearings straight and figure out what I was gonna do with this whole thing, but I think we got it all figured out now.

Some of y'all might recognize me or the voice, some of you might not. Either way, the name's Hol Horse and if'n you've got yourself a haunting problem, I'm your man to be callin'. Or, well, might be more accurate to say Slug Paranormal's got your back. Been doin' this shit for long enough and this place just called to me, you know.


[Unfortunately he's a YouTuber, please make fun of him forever. But he's got a nice place so guess the YouTube money really does pay the bills sometimes.]

If you got some intel on the shenanigans going on here, I'm all ears, I've heard some tales here and there, but sometimes it's better to get it straight from the residents' mouths, you know. Or to be shown them, since most of my intel so far's come from outside the city and it ain't the most reliable, you know?
