genessia | 4 Failed Attempts at World Domination [Video]

[Today the video feed opens up to a view of Nova City from the office of it's Guardian. Who happens to be sitting at his desk with his feet up. After a moment he'll look to the camera and feign surprise before sitting up straight.]

Oh hello there. Citizens of Genessia. In case any of you are new, allow me to introduce myself: I'm the Guardian of the sub-city, Nova City. The one, the only, the brilliant scientist, Dr. Albert W. W-

[However, before Wily can finish, there are two heavy *ka-cha* sounds followed by brilliant lights flashing into the feed.. A clack of high heels follow and Satsuki steps into the feed with her hair blowing in a dramatic fashion.

Perhaps a bit overdramatic, but Satsuki considers it perfect for one as big a deal such as herself. She raises her hilted sword upward, then once she slams it onto ther ground, her narrow gaze intensifies as she bellows: ]

Attention, citizens and denizens alike of Genessia City! Of Attleton! Fayren! and Everglade! Today is a day to rejoice as I, Satsuki Kiryuin, have officially become Deputy Guardian of Nova City as of now! It goes without saying that I support Doctor Albert Wily's aggressive vision of keeping the peace and allowing youth's potential to flourish!

However it has come to my attention that a number of you choose to remain passive, which I feel can only be rectified through education and action! Therefore my first line of duty will be to enforce this education so that you may see and understand the truth your own eyes and minds!

[Wily has climbed up on to his desk and can be seen shaking his fist angirly at Satsuki.]

What are you doing!? I was trying to introduce myself! We rehearsed this!

As of today, I will be in charge of the construction and maintenance of two institutions: The first will be weekly classes that shall assist in getting newcomers up to speed and encourage them to take their new found destiny into their own hands.

The second will be the construction of Wily Academy! This academy will be a mind opening experience for our youth. Being exposed to and sharing differing cultures, ideas, and knowledge will ultimately bring everyone together as one progressive entity! As one we shall create a miracle!

[By this point Wily has given up and slumped back into his chair.]

Kids these days...

For the next several weeks I will be seeking teachers to aid in this cause, and while I am certain I need not say it; student attendance will be mandatory. Those who I must to bring in by force will be punished!

[Satsuki draws in a calm breath, then.]

As construction nears completion, I will be sending out registration forms and will provide details of what resources will be available in this Academy.

I look forward to you all taking part in the elimination of a passive culture and unleashing a strong, bright, and flourishing culture!

[Is she done? It looks like she's done. Wily looks a little bored but he'll sit up straight the moment Satsuki finishes talking.]

Deputy Guardian, Satsuki Kiriyun everyone, giver her a hand.

[He'll clap lightly for a moment.]

Wily Academy is a bold new step that will benefit not only me, but everyone in Genessia. I expect to see a number of slacking dofus' show up ready to learn and become productive members of society once the academy opens up in the near future.

Until then, If you have any questions, feel free to contact me or Satsuki. I'll get to them as I feel I have time.

[Souda kind of subconsciously takes his cues from his friend, and likewise watches the entire video message instead of immediately switching off his vidphone, which had been his first instinct. He's another Hope's Peak Academy victim, could you really blame him?

But, those from that same world-- Souda, Leon, and Chihiro-- don't exactly have much of a world to return to, and two out of the three are already dead in their own timelines, so they seem to be in a unique position compared to typical Genessia residents. Genessia is probably going to be their permanent home, and it definitely beats the alternative. It also means they probably have more incentive than most to take an active part in happenings within the main and sub-cities...

Souda's video reply is public. It's unclear whether this is accidental or intentional.]

You can't just ask evil masterminds if they're plotting evil things, Leon!

[Leon tilts his head inquisitively. It wasn't as though he'd expected an honest answer if Wily and Kiriyun actually were planning to pull a Monokuma. He was just curious.] Why not?

Of course they'd lie!! They're not gonna reveal their true plans until they're sure they've got everyone right where they want them, and then the evil monologuing can begin.

[~~So exactly like any other typical high school teacher.~~

Leon's giving Souda a look that's somewhere between incredulity and dismay. Is that the former-SHSL Despair in him talking?]

Well, I didn't think they'd spill all the sordid details just because I asked.

~~[Precisely!!]~~

S-sordid?

[Wait, what are they talking about again?]

[Satsuki just.. Stares at this exchange for a moment. What the hell even.]

I was expecting some overreactions, but none to this level.

This is going to be a school that cultivates proactivity, unification and productivity. I will not have this place confused for a cult!

[And now it becomes obvious Souda didn't realise that was a public conversation. Oops! Dammit Leon you could've told him >:| ]

Uh... cult? No one said anything about a cult!

[He tugs his beanie down until it's mostly covering his eyes, the way he does when he's nervous and/or scared.

...But he still wants Leon to answer him. Right when it was getting interesting, too. Sigh.]

The events described in Hopes Peak Academy certainly sounds like the works of one.

[She'd be amused by his reaction if she weren't Satsuki.]

You're Kazuichi Souda, correct? I hear that you possess quite the talent.

[No U, Souda! You're the technologically competent one >:(

...This isn't the first time Souda's made Leon wonder just what kind of soul friends they were, before. He rubs his chin.]

Uh, never mind that.

C'mon, let's go enjoy our freedom while we still can!
