un: zodiac | Happy November!

[kaisoumods]

WHO: Everyone!
WHERE: Libra App
WHEN: November 1st
WHAT: Zodiac Network Post
WARNINGS: None!

[On the night of Halloween, the night seems to grow progressively darker as the Spirit Vein shifts from hues of orange and amber to shades of purple and black. Everyone's devices will emit a soothing wind chime sound as a new Zodiac post appears. The chime will sound even if you have your phone turned off or on silent, and will not stop until you read their messsage and comment to it.]



Belle, Yugo, Zelos, and Roxas have joined the app. Say hi everyone!

[The post then continues on.]

Hello and thank you for using the Libra app.

Happy Halloween, to all the ghouls and goblins out there! We hope you're having a fantastic spooky holiday!

In other news, Zodiac is aware of that there is concern of a Spirit Realm related event similar to last year, and we're currently doing our best to monitor the situation. While we wish to avoid a panic, we'll be doing our best to be prepared. In the event of an emergency, we will be doing our best to fortify Undertown and Cathedral Hill. Barrier spells are also available at our office, should you wish to invest some for your own peace of mind.

That said, we haven't detected any of the yokai from last year in the city, so we are hoping it won't be a repeat of last year. Prepare for the worst, hope for the best- we like to say!

And with that, it's time for our icebreaker question!

Did your stupid bitch-ass go on an absinthe bender again? I told you that your delicate little ass can't handle that shit.

And how much would those barrier spells cost, and how effective would they truly be?

Besides that, has anyone noticed there are seals that know how to fight lurking around the harbor now? Because I didn’t know that until one of them tried to make off with my hat.

Yeah I've noticed that the past couple days from the fortress window. It almost feels like a gang marking it's turf.

I bet you could get better spells from undertown.

Takame put a bunch up at the Vogue - you can always ask him if he'd help you out.

...Edward, Honey? Please don't fight a seal.

[A seal who can fight?]

[What has Momma Wolfwood been getting up to??]

Did this seal have marks like sunglasses around the eyes?

Oh look it's this guy. Staring at the camera very intently.

"Is it now... acceptable to walk about the town again? The people living there will no longer react hysterically to those not human?"

Was that a horse poster on the wall behind him? Don't worry about it...

Video, un:eve

[playtag]

Eve peers back. Ah, this fellow. Of course this time of year would have been difficult for him.

"I would give it another month."

"The Spirit Realm might still be... odd right now."

hi everyone! We’ve already met on the thirst post but anyway.

hmmm I’d replace pumpkin pie, personally. With chocolate cake! If you’re going to stuff yourself silly during Thanksgiving, you might as well go all out. And personally I’d add something like pho hoa to the main dishes, it can’t all be turkey.

[wilder]

Denied! We're not replacing the pumpkin pie for chocolate! You get PLENTY of chocolate with halloween and christmas!

Probably wouldn't be a bad idea to get some of those barriers for the Fortress...

Anyway, I have a question for the shapeshifters on the app. What do you do with the power?

It seems I've happened to develop the power recently and I'm not entirely sure what to do with it.

UN: tithoes | text

[blueeyeswhitedoppelganger]

Well if you're me you occasionally go to town for groceries, but I expect most shapeshifters have 'human' as their default.

Really it's more of a tool of convenience.

I live my best gender life!

Don't have to buy padding to fill out an outfit when I can just shapeshift~

AND for the cosplayers out there, no need to get contacts when you can just change your eye color or hair color!

[scourgingstars]

annoy people in an argument by looking like them and repeating whatever they say

practical uses though

no one can ever keep track of you if you're careful

text: un: trienemybest

[droptheious]

There's fewer suggestions of "crime" than i expected.

Anyway, I agree with Venti. You could use it to really explore yourself if you want. I mean, it's like giving you a non binary gift basket, right? If you wanna have fun with it, have fun with it.

Also crime.

[end_singer]

Hmm... I find it a very useful power to have, though my primary uses for it are perhaps largely irrelevant to you. After all, you are already human and thus have no need to shift to avoid causing alarm, you are presumably already capable of eating, and... [A pause as he figures out how to phrase this.] ...Well, I am not built to run or climb in my true shape.

[He points the camera downward briefly to show his wholly mismatched legs to illustrate the point before returning it to his face.]

...Though perhaps you might use it to explore different perspectives as I have, if not in the same manner?

[liberios]

Something big is going to happen and I'm not sure if I like the sound of it. We'll just do what we can to prepare for the future.

Shapeshifting could be useful for gathering information. You think that'll work?

Soooooo in prep for this November Nonsense, whatever it might be, The Vogue will be on high alert, just in case. Given what happened to it LAST year, I'm super glad we've got Takame's wards up to keep it relatively safe! FINGERS CROSSED!

Anyhoo, should everything go tits up in a not-fun way, I'm gonna need help with gofers between the safe zones and all that nice not-getting-ourselves-killed jazz. Also seen as we had a TON of newbies in! Hi, haaay, the best theatre in the Entertainment District is not only the most amazing night of entertainment you could ask for, but is also a legit safe zone if you need it. So if you DO need it- or if you wanna drop by and tell my staff how pretty they are - you can just do that, kay? Kay!

Oh, I can teleport and bring a bunch of people with me! Or some supplies and stuff, I guess.

Hel-lo friends and fam, it's your favorite prankster and loveable joke-maker Sampo Koski!

Little question for all you, haha, cuties.
Listen, I knooooow some of the stuff at that Sketchy Goodwill store are worth avoiding with a ten foot pole, but some bargains are just too good to give up, right? And it's not like that ol' wizard hasn't sold funny rocks I haven't taken home before.

Like the watermelon flavored ones or, you know. Stuff like --

[ both hands go up, and he waves them, as if dismissing himself. He's getting off track. ...and there's a glint of some sort of crystal on one of those hands. ]

AN-Y way. Your ol' pal might have bought one a few months back and. Well. About a week ago he m, might have gotten it? Stuck? Somehow? On his hand? Aheh. [ he'll actually show it to the camera, now. ]

Well, at least it didn’t suck you into a pocket dimension for a while. [A decade, in fact, but Noctis isn’t gonna go into more details in public.] You sure you didn’t mess around with super glue or something else before you picked it up?

I'll be looking for hands to help me shop for Christmas Decorations sometime this week.

The past two Novembers have been... unideal, as we well know.
As such, I am making the executive decision to close the Auguries for two weeks starting today, and locking it down in preparation for any incoming dangers.

Those who work for me, I just wanted to be transparent on this, as you will get two weeks of paid vacation. I will let you know when the Auguries will re-open. Thank you for your time.
