WHERE: The Network
WHEN: May 16th (so Monday)
WHAT: Many Announcements
WARNINGS: August Swears (tm)

[Hi everyone have one exhausted half-demon on your screen. His cards are laid out in front of him and behind him is his suitcase, still mostly packed. He only just got back.]

So. Some bullshit happened. Let's see what bullshit is coming at us next month and just move right the fuck along from the bullshit that came at us this month. Spoilers: we got no fuckin' clue but it's fucking weird as fuck!

[He is so tired. But he pulls up something on his phone.]

Right, this time we have a soundtrack because surprise there might be more seers! A bad recorder version of "My Heart Will Go On" but no clue if it's the "bad recorder" or "song" part that's relevant here...sheep, we saw a sheep...a fur--anthropomorphic animal suit or just an anthro character either/or, and possibly a hand with an eye? That one we're not sure about, but that's what the actual seers saw.

[He holds up the Fool card, upright.]

Meanwhile, I got this. For those of who you never touched that one series with the tarot themeing, this guy is the Fool. It is the start of the hero's journey! It means lots of things like beginnings and spontaneity and all that jazz! It tells me fuck all about the bullshit, however, but it is absolutely gonna be relevant so like. I'unno. Beware babies?

[Moving on. August will end this feed and start a new one]



PRIVATE TO ALL KNOWN ADULTS (18+ sorry you responsible 16/17 year olds)

[August takes a deep, deep breath.]

Apparently some of the younger kids got involved in that fucking soccer game and...no. Just no. Obviously Zodiac doesn't give a rat's ass about these kids so if everyone's cool with this, I wanna get a list of the younger ones or at least get all the other adults on this fuckin' app working together to try and keep them from getting hurt. I know we can't stop them from doing reckless shit like. In general, they're fucking kids kids do that, but if we at least know who to watch out for maybe what happened this month doesn't happen again.

[A sigh.]

The freshman--fourteen and fifteen year olds--and younger are the biggest concern right now, I think. The older ones are still kids but some of them are responsible enough to help even if I wouldn't put them in charge. That's just my opinion, and if anyone has any better ideas than a fucking list please share. It's just all I got right now.

[bolledivita]

and for what it's worth i have healing now so...

[drewthetower]

I am never taking a trip out when the cards are THAT bad ever again fucking hells

Mirabel Madrigal and Camilo Madrigal have a bad habit of putting themselves in danger. Antonio M- [She stops, sighing.] Antonio is five and while he wouldn't likely throw himself into a situation like my daughters and nephew... He is always inclined to help.

[Should she list Hunter? She didn't know how old the little burjito was.] I have my full healing abilities, if they are of any use.

private to the adults

[drewthetower]

[Gods, the poor Madrigals.]

Mirabel I knew about, but I didn't know your nephew was here. Antonio's the little one, yeah?

[A beat.]

Wait you can heal?

the adults?? have one adult cat

[madebyhumans]

I saw the results of the game. None of those children should have partaken in it.

[She was on the winning team, but it still haunts her that she couldn't do anything to save the kids who had been sacrificed.]

[drewthetower]

[Not the weirdest thing he's seen okay.]

No one should have, even if I get it. It's fucked up no matter how you look at it.

ADULTS ONLY; UN: ecraig

[fiddlestick]

Heh, I'm sure you already know I'm willing to help out where I can!

And oh, I can heal too. Since everyone else seems to be saying that.

[drewthetower]

maybe just going "yo who can heal" would have been better at this rate. not that I'm complaining, no one wants me to try and heal shit. I CAN but

What happened never should have. We never should have been put in the position where -

[Nana pinches the bridge of her nose and sighs.]

- where children were put in danger.

How can I help? I have some wind powers, and I’m working on developing them more. I’m also pretty good with little kids, if we need a team to watch over them.

assuming this is private to the adults

[drewthetower]

At the moment, just watch out for 'em. That's all we can really do, since some of 'em aren't from here and don't have their parents or something.

ADULT FILTER| un: hikari-vi

[whiteshroud]

Hell yeah I'm an adult.

[drewthetower]

oh my gods you nerd

[sassery]

no
disqualified
youre as much an adult as the kids here
considering your idea of helping me was to literally punch me in the face
and then piss me off to fight you on the rooftop of my apartment
you trying to herd any kids is a recipe of potential explosions is all im saying

[callmekacchan]

Questioning the validity of that statement.
You have the vibes of someone who needs to be on one of those child leashes.

adults only; text; un: teasweets

[lapislamine]

I see my brother has already mentioned my healing capabilities. I'm also very used to children - I did a lot of looking after my siblings.

Though right now I think you might need a little looking after, August. Is there anything I can bring you or help you with?

[drewthetower]

[Don't call him out like this.]

did not expect this many healers. am not complaining

honestly idk this month is has been a year

[ Luisa probably hasn’t had the best track record in terms of “being responsible”. But she does want to do everything she can to help, to protect some of the younger ones here. ]

There’s this one kid, Alberto. I’m not sure exactly how old he is but he’s on the younger side of teen.

[drewthetower]

[Eh she counts. Mostly.]

oh fun. seriously why all these kids

text for the 18+ thing; un: Litania

[chatterboxing]

since people have already been bringing it up and stuff: i've got like super SUPER basic healing shit, it's like "i can delete papercuts and stuff" levels of basic, but that's prob less useful than what anyone else here with their own healing stuff can offer

not sure if/how newbie ice powers would help anything either

tbh the most i think i can do atm is try to keep an eye out while i'm out doin stuff

[drewthetower]

okay but paper cuts hurt like a bitch so

anything helps tbh

Text, un: Dynamight

[callmekacchan]

I know I already said I'd pitch in.
But for the sake of keeping everything in one place for reference sake, I'll repeat it here.
Also on the front of kids to keep an eye on; Alberto Scorfano.
Definitely need to keep more than one adult watching that one at all times.

[That's the only name he really has because he's bad about asking names... or remembering them. But Alberto leaves an impression...]

[drewthetower]

think you might be the second one to bring him up, Luisa mentioned an Alberto who got kidnapped in March. great

18+ only; text; un: __tsukasa__

[wavemastery]

I'm 18, but please put me on the child list because I don't want anything to do with all of this garbage and I don't want to be an adult anymore.

[Being a high school senior is hardly the same as being an adult, but all the same, BIG MOOD.]

[drewthetower]

fair and also mood

Private to adults- video

[wedonttalkabout]

I still can't believe those poor kids got wrapped up in that. No one should have died, but to accept kids to play knowing what would happen? It was awful. You're right, Zodiac aren't looking out for us...them.

Alberto is one of them. He's fourteen and he's...a handful, but I've been trying to keep an eye on him.

[Tragically, he doesn't know about Luca yet.]

There's a kid called Snow White around too. I don't know how old she is- young definitely. She's not an otherworlder but I'm- I am kinda worried about her.

Re: Private to adults- video

[crystallinememories]

I've talked to Snow White as well- I believe she's 12 or so? But I get the impression her home situation may not be... great.

[for once all the training courses he's had to take for his TA-ship might actually be helping.]

Adults filter

[crystallinememories]

Unfortunately I think trying to actually stop them from doing anything is likely to backfire horribly, but yes, a list would at least be helpful.

I wonder if we could convince them to... I don't know, use a buddy system or something like that?

[drewthetower]

Yeah, we can't stop them but we can make it less dangerous for them. Hopefully. Unfortunately the buddy system only works if people don't get kidnapped or go missing which happens here. So.
