WHERE: The network
WHEN: After the prophecy post
WHAT: the reason for the (march) season
WARNINGS: Language, mostly.

So, in light of the current information on our next upcoming disaster and knowing not everyone is from Earth or otherwise knows much of mythology, I'd like to put forth a quick rundown on what we could be dealing with. For those who may not know me: I'm Professor Waver Velvet, and believe me when I say I've studied this.

Banshees
Spirits taking the form of cloaked women with long hair. Heard to scream, wail, sing laments, you get the idea. Doing so most commonly foretells the death of a family member, but an omen of death in general is also applicable depending on interpretation. Ordinarily they do not cause death, merely warn for it. Although I am not fully confident in committing to that, where things never quite turn out as I expect them to.

Leprechauns
Largely the bastardized interpretation of vaguely similar creatures, the folklore around them rose to prominence in more recent centuries. In other words: contrary to popular belief, leprechauns are fucking fake. Not that that will stop anything, because collective belief and magic are a hell of a feedback loop. Just in case: don't follow any rainbows, don't touch any gold, and in fact just stay far away from troublemaking little bastards in green.

Fae (general)
Carry iron to repel them. If you have or know of ways to ward against or see through illusions, be prepared to utilize them. Charms of rowan branches might work, as well. If you see anything like mushrooms or flowers growing in a circle do not under any circumstances cross into it.

One more thing.

Don't give out your name.

Don't. Give out. Your name.

DO NOT GIVE OUT YOUR FUCKING NAME.

WARNINGS: n/a

---

Good afternoon everyone!

[After a somewhat busy morning, Jane pops up on the app network with her shop as the backdrop.]

I know we have some artistic types in town, and some people who might be curious, so I'm doing a little check to see if anyone might be interested in attending a painting class that I've been thinking of setting up. [She's been mulling over the idea for a while but with Everything Happening So Much, it has never seemed like a good time.]

I'll be able to lead you through a few different techniques, with the idea being that you follow along with what I'm painting, but I certainly shan't object if you'd rather experiment. [It's all art, in the end.]

There will be some snacks, and everyone is welcome to come along. I expect I'll be able to put something together for early March, depending on interest.

[Behind her, her wings give a little flutter.]

So, ah, if you'd be interested or have any questions, please go ahead and let me know!

[At some point on the 20th, after the prophecy post goes out, the Zodiac apartments are shaken with a loud KA-BOOM! While the damage to other apartments is minimal at best, one apartment has definitely borne the brunt of it. Pieces of Varian and Fern's place can be found blown outwards and onto the street below. There are a lot of swords and dangerous chemicals strewn about so...maybe be careful if you're gonna go around touching any of them. There's a hissing sound from up high where there seems to be a fire extinguisher being used on putting out the fire up there and a distant "I GOT IT, I GOT IT!"

...They might not, in fact, have got this.
]

Network: Video UN:trienemybest/fern

[A few hours after the explosion, the video opens on a still slightly sooty-looking Varian and Fern. They're both looking pretty sheepish after that mess. Varian clears his throat.]

So uh...you might have noticed the explosion earlier in the Zodiac Apartments. Sorry, that was- I was examining one of those peaches we got from the spirit realm. Zodiac seemed so determined to get their hands on one I-I wanted to figure out what they were about. See if I could maybe reverse engineer one to counteract whatever it is Zodiac plans to do with them. But uh-

[He waves his hand, to show that it kind of...went wrong. Obviously. ]

But sometimes junk goes boom. It's the price of doing good science.

[Fern no, that isn't how science works at all, don't play favourites just because Varian was the one who caused it.]

It doesn't look like anyone got hurt. And the explosion was kinda sick! Who knew fruit could do that??

[Varian's kind of casually covering his face with his hands as Fern decidedly plays favourites on their apology tour. He lets out a soft whine, and then looks at the camera again.]

Anyway, Fern's right, I definitely didn't expect it to have...uh explosive properties. I think the damage was largely contained to our place, but if anyone else's apartments were damaged please let us know, we'll come and help fix it up or pay for the damages. Sorry.

[He clears his throat again. He's agreed to sort out the damages for his and Fern's place with Zodiac, but he is NOT gonna voice that right now. He has a chance to figure out what Zodiac are about, maybe even find a way to sabotage what they're doing. But he's no stranger to treason- if he announces to the whole network what he's planning, Zodiac will know in an instant. He hates hiding the truth, it's against what he believes in, but this time it's necessary. ]

So um- important thing to glean from this if you have one? Do not eat the peach. And definitely don't touch the peach juices or breathe in any of the peach dust because that's...bad.

[Aw, Fern is just going to give Varian a reassuring pat on the shoulder. As far as he's concerned it wasn't a huge deal - some stuff got smashed, sure, but his swords survived and the four of them (Fern, Varian, Ruddiger and his new fomantis) are all fine. He wasn't super attached to the apartment, either.

Sorting out the damages with Zodiac is a whole other kettle of fish that he doesn't want to think about right now.]


Yeahhh. Dunno if anyone actually ate the peach, but ever since it exploded in our faces we've both been feeling a lot - man, how do I describe it? - clingier? To areas in the city that have gates. Those're where the spirit veins run, right?

[He doesn't know, he isn't an expert here.]

But it's probably nothing!



[[OOC: Available for action or network, whatever you like! If you choose action, please be aware if your character comes into contact with any peach juice or vapors they will have to deal with the consequences listed here]]

WHEN: January 15th
WHAT: Zodiac Network Post
WARNINGS: None!

[We've reached the middle of January. The Zodiac race was a thrilling success, and the winter is still freezing. Wherever you are, your phone will give a blaring alert sound, indicating a new Zodiac post. As usual, the alert will sound even if you have your phone turned off or on silent, and will take over your phone until you read and comment to the message. The post begins like the previous one had, with notifications of peoples coming and goings]


Crito Flat Jusis Ann Minwu Diluc
Crito, Flat, Jusis, Ann, Minwu, and Diluc have joined the app. Say hi everyone!

Dolores Xingqiu Roxas Chongyun Alphinaud
Dolores, Xingqiu, Roxas, Chongyun, and Alphinaud has left the app.


[The post then continues on as normal.]

Hello. Thank you for using the Libra App.

Because you all reacted so positively to my post last month, my bosses has assigned me to write these mid-month updates from now on. Which means I have extra work now. So thanks for that.

Congratulations on everyone who completed the Zodiac race. Hope you enjoyed yourselves somehow or learned something. If any of you took a peach but decide you don't want it, Zodiac will take it off your hands for a payment that's higher than my salary. Which is depressing me just thinking about it, so let's move on.

We're aware that Jusis Albarea from the Black Order has joined the app. It was part of the deal we made with them to help deal with Professor Willow. There will probably be more of them in the future. The Order has insisted they are only here to monitor and assist in what's going on. Zodiac is not liable if any of you manage to do something that makes them decide to take you out, so try to play nice.

Anyway, my shift's over so that's it. Seeya.

WHO: Jane Porter
WHERE: Libra app
WHEN: Jan 2nd
WHAT: She's having a moment
WARNINGS: None yet!

[The video turns on... then off, then on again. The phone is on the ground, suddenly, and Jane can be heard muttering to herself as she leans down to pick it up. She's never sounded quite as English as she does right now as she tries to keep her composure.

There's a thunk as something falls over in the background.
]

So-- So, look.

[Ah, there she is. Jane looks tense - the kind of tense that is probably familiar to some people in Kaisou - and very much like she may not have slept very for a couple of days.]

I'm sure everyone is dreadfully tired of posts like this, but-- you know-- I've been doing my best. I was living a perfectly normal life, running my little shop, and then--!

[And then!]

And then my husband starts changing, and I love him, so I deal with it. Then gates to a hell dimension start appearing everywhere, and I deal with it! And then everything goes completely dark for a month, and I end up dead in some mythological underworld being attached by giant snakes and suddenly I can fly and I think-- I think to myself gosh, Janey, you're handling all of this terribly well aren't you.

[The screen wobbles as she smacks her free hand down on something.]

But now? [She stretches her arm away from herself and the source of her fretting becomes obvious. There is a pair of wings growing out of her back, peeking up over her shoulders - slim, fairly simple, and identifiable as hummingbird wings for any ornithologists out there.] Now this has happened. This-- And I'm..! I don't think I'm overreacting! [Her voice is pitching up to a level that would make dogs bark.]

I don't think I am! But I don't know how much more of this I'm supposed to take without losing it. So-- So tell me, how. How do you do it?

[Send help.]

WARNINGS: Tipsy Yusuke, discussions of Banging Divinities

[For what it's worth, he doesn't sound any different than usual, except maybe his accent is a bit stronger than it would be otherwise.

If you know Yusuke, though, you can tell the art teacher had a few to drink. That is your only warning before:]


I just returned from seeing some of my old art school friends, and a very interesting conversation happened. It started when one of them got on a rant about how all classical Western art is the product of artists not having enough sex, another one arguing that obviously the classical art would be of very attractive people since they were usually of gods and the like, and that got me to thinking.

[A beat. Two.]

Would you have sex with a god or other divinity of the situation arose? Oh, and thank you Yuri for telling me how to filter this from the children.

WHAT: Yuri very abruptly has some wolf features and he's freaking out about them. And also sneezing.
WARNINGS: Language!

[Yuri is not only annoyed, but also a little freaked out. And, well, his eyes are a bit bloodshot and watery. He's not having a good time. He opens his mouth to say something only for it to turn into a sneeze before he can get a word out.]

Fuck. Hang on.

[UGH. He sets the phone down for a bit to do... something in the background. He comes back in about a minute or two. A pair of wolf ears can briefly be seen before it refocuses mostly on his face.]

Sorry. Uh, so, is there anyone else experiencing something like this?

[Yuri pulls the camera further away so that everyone can see that yep. Those are definitely wolf ears.]

Also, fun fact, if you yourself are becoming partially a canine of some kind and you're severely allergic to dogs and cats? It absolutely extends to being allergic to yourself. It's so fun.

[He's gotta see an allergist after this, like, holy shit.]

WHAT: Newbie alert
WARNINGS: Possibly Snow White's abusive stepmother situation in that thread with her, otherwise none expected?

[The video begins with a "Starting Soon~" screen like one might see livestreamers using, with custom art of a unicorn racing along the bottom. The corner of the screen says "Annacorn" in pretty cursive.

After a moment, the screen transitions to live video and a young woman is sitting in front of a computer, with a wall behind her decorated in sunflower decals and a neon sign that also reads "Annacorn" - it's her online handle, the name of her vlogging channel and her livestreaming account. She's a variety streamer who enjoys singing, dramatically telling stories, and occasionally playing games, and while she's definitely nowhere near a million subscribers, she's got enough of a following to pay her bills, so people may or may not recognize her.
]

Oh!! Okay. Well this is... New. This app. Uh. Is everyone here from Kaisou? I just moved here. And the app just showed up on my phone. Is that weird? Is it normal? Somewhere in between?

And whiiiile I'm here, if anyone has any store recs for shopping for furniture and household essentials, I'd love the help!

Custom Text

The city of Kaisou has always been a hole-in-the-wall kind of town. While prosperous and peaceful, it's usually overlooked by the rest of the country and left to its own devices. Perhaps you were born and raised here, perhaps opportunity brought you here, or perhaps you don't know why you're here at all. Whatever the case may be, all your roads led to Kaisou. It's not bad place to be, all in all, so long as you ignore certain holes in the world.
