The following rumors are going around as NPC gossip. Your characters are welcome to hear them. The rumors may be true or false, and the subject of the rumor is randomly selected from the taken list. If a character shares the same first name with another character, we will not specify which one it is.

This week's rumors are:

1. Momo and Shaun have been very busy this week. They're planning a haunted house in Attleton to help raise money for orphans! I'm so excited!

2. Have you spoken to Madeline lately? I heard that she tried to hold a seance and summoned the spirit of Thor's father. But no one's seen her around since... scary!

3. Tomura is actually Jack the Ripper... I think they just proved it and are about to arrest him!

NOTE: THIS IS NOT A VISIBLE POST TO CHARACTERS. IT IS JUST WHAT THEY MAY HEAR GOING AROUND AS CHATTER AROUND THE CITIES.

[The Bakugou who glares into the camera looks positively haggard. His hair is in a disarray, dark circles framing his eyes as the sunglasses slide down his nose. His shirt is wrinkled, and he finally looks like Aizawa's kid like he hasn't slept in days. For someone high maintenance like him, it's telling.]

Approximately sometime on Monday, September 24th, Orihime Inoue went missing. If you know her, you'll realize why that's out of character, because she isn't the type of person to do stupid shit, but if you don't know her look carefully.

[He holds up a picture of her and places it back down.]

The scumbag I think most likely to be responsible is the same rotten piece of garbage from my world who brought down the arcade, Shirataki Tofuka. Allow me to be so clear that even a cowardly speck of nothing who hides behind someone else's hand can understand this:

This mistake is going to cost you your life. You think you have the upper hand now? You're just making it worse for yourself once I find you. Withholding information makes you an accessory no better than him, and I'll slaughter every single person involved until I find her. If you have information, we can protect you. Otherwise, stay the fuck out of my way.

WHO: Lorna Dane - open to anyone who may want to talk to her, even if it's not class related
WHAT: New professor doesn't actually want to deal with students holds office hours
WHEN: Tuesday, Oct 2 between 3 and 5 pm
WHERE: Attleton University, Physics Dept

Several weeks into the semester, Lorna grudgingly added office hours to her official schedule. Her three courses - only one undergrad, thanks be - were pleasingly grouped from mid-morning to late afternoon and left her plenty of time to spend in the lab or volunteering at the Research Institute in unearthing the mysteries of this parallel dimension. But her students had been asking for time outside of class and she was running out of excuses.

Choosing office hours was a delicate thing. You wanted to be sure to avoid having to interrupt any real work while still picking a time at which you'd have to spend as little extra time as possible in the office. Avoiding meal times was key, but rushing around campus to classes was also to be minimized.

So it was that from 3 to 5 on alternate Tuesdays and Wednesdays, she committed to being found in her office. To discourage anyone from actually taking her up on it, she kept the lights off in her office, choosing instead to rely on natural light through her window, and, as often as she could get away with it, the hallway lights as well.

On her door, just below the placard with Dr Lorna Dane, Geophysics was a listing of her courses:

Physics 105B: Introductory Electromagnetism, Waves, and Optics
Geophys 310A: Electromagnetism and Optics
Geophys 254: Isotopic Geochemistry

Below that was a sign: No, you can't have an extension.

It wasn't that Lorna didn't want to help her students to succeed. She just wanted them to do it without bothering her.

Devilish Designs - Closed to Bulla
[Kaoru got the building, which was one step towards his business goal. But the young man was finding himself standing in front of various dummies, all with nothing on it right now. He was trying to think of what the best clothing choices would be to be viewed in the window. But so far he couldn't think of what would work the best and what would draw people in.

With a small sigh passing by his lips, he soon went into his pocket to pull out his device, quickly flicking through it to a certain name. He knew of one person that he felt like could help him more than anything. So with a quick message asking if she wanted to come to Devilish Designs to help him with something he found himself going around and setting up some tea and snacks while he waited.]

Closed to Minako
[He hadn't forgotten about taking Minako out to karaoke. He had felt bad about not doing it soon after the carnival. But he had needed to finish off a few things to the outfit and actually learn how to wrap it in the best way possible by himself. He found it to be an achievement on his end, even if it still looked like a mess.

But it was done and he had been looking at his phone for a moment before heading to check if she was either at her apartment or place of business. He figured he might as well surprise her with it now at least.]

Around Genessia - Open
[With things starting to come along business wise with a few little things left to decide all he had to do now was simply advertise for both business in general as well as letting people know there are jobs available.

So he was currently walking around Genessia handing out leaflets all the while smiling.]
