sora ❤
[ Sora's face blinks into view, the camera moves a bit, but then it settles - he steps away, evidently he'd propped his phone up on something, and gives a small smile. ]

Hullo, so.

[ He clears his throat and then he looks down to his hands which he brings up to tug at his shirt. ]

There's been a few posts that have been about relationships and stuff, [ His face turns red but he does his best compose himself and he looks up to the camera. ] so I was thinking it'd be nice to have like a singles night somewhere, ... so people can gather around and get to know one another. Yeah. [ Yeah... ] So.

Yeah.

I'm going to find out where a good place is but if anyone else has some ideas or whatever, just .. you know what to do.

[ Nervous laughter vibrates over his body. ] But, I also have another thing!

I been thinking.. when I make these welcome kits for new comers.. like what is some of the stuff you guys wish you had when you first came? Working at the store has given me a lot of ideas of some of the essentials people buy regularly but.. I'd appreciate some feedback, in case I'm not thinking of something! Okay, thanks.

[ Sora walks over to the phone, the camera bounces, then it turns off. ]
 
 
[Has anyone actually missed Grell on the network? Well, she's making her presence known, because since stepping down as City Guardian of Everglade, she's been spending her time at home with family. Catching up with them, plotting things, and trying to fill up the vast amount of time she suddenly has on her hands now that she isn't protecting an entire city.

She's wearing a royal blue turtle neck that has long sleeves, so her usual tattoo on her neck is covered up, along with a black pencil skirt and loose hair. Her dog is using her lap as a pillow for its head and is sleeping soundly.]

Long time, no see. I'm breaking my unspoken vow of silence to present a business opportunity to those who own a business and think of expanding to Attleton or relocating your business to a more profitable location. I had spoken with the previous mayor, Mayor Palmer, into creating a place that will be of benefit to the entire city. Currently, a building is being built at the end of the boardwalk, and it will be there that a shopping mall shall be created. The cost of placing your business there will depend on how much space you'd need, which could cost between three thousand to up to six thousand redbills.

There is a stipulation: a portion of the earnings from each shop, which is set at 0.3% currently, will be given to the city of Attleton, specifically the City Guardian's office. By providing the necessary funding, we are ensuring the safety of all within Attleton, and a safe Attleton is a benefit to us all, don't you think?

If interested, please get in touch. This mall is scheduled to be completed before December, but of course there will be a chance to still partake in this even after it's built.

[She gives a light wave of her hand in an attempt to sign off, but not before her pokemon show up. Litten being chased by Torracat. Their play knocks over a vase of flowers behind her. Sighing in exasperation, Grell shakes her head before just reaching over to turn off the device. She'll deal with them off camera.]

 [Video]
 
[On the screen, a young woman appears, wearing a pair of blue jeans and a white t-shirt that did hug her body a bit. She doesn't look too pleased. Rather, she looked annoyed.]
 
Asuka, if this is your grandma pulling me into another dimension, can she at least wait until I get my paycheck? I would like to have SOME safety net of cash and not worry about bills! You try being concerned about plumbing!
 
Or if this is some jackass shinobi again, I get it, you are scared of some big bad Yoma. I ain't some damn toy to be dressed up and put into a stupid diorama, so let me out of this fanfiction theater! Because if I find out that's what this is, no Yoma is gonna be able to top what I do to you, got it!?
 
[She sighs, rubbing her head. Well at least she wasn't forced into bikini this time.]
 
And look, if neither of that crap is going on and what Snow White said is true, just tell me where I can find a job at least? Or whose skull I have to cave in? In the mood for the latter more than anything really.
 
[There's a loud grumbling noise, causing her eyes to widen a bit. She gulps, wiping her mouth of any possible drool. God it felt like forever since the last feast.]
 
Scratch that. Maybe a place that sells some good barbeque? That's higher on the list right now!
 
[Action/Attleton Coliseum]
 
[After getting her fill of food, and meeting weird people, Homura is now prowling around the area, stopping when she sees the coliseum. She grins, fingers already twitching. Well, this place was already filled with so many odd folks. Maybe they could at least provide a decent brawl. She intended to scope out the competition for now, taking to moving to the crowd and watching from above. Who knows, maybe if they were tough enough, she might just jump down for some fun...]
 
[Action/Fayren Beach]
 
[Changing into a rather modest black swimsuit, a small skirt surrounding her hips, she had hoped to at least find one of her comrades here. Sadly things seemed to be for naught. She ended up sighing again.]
 
Grah...Maybe this was a bad idea. Chances are they are sick of water just as much as I am right now...
 
 
Cheshire Cat
03 October 2018 @ 05:53 pm
[Action - Genessia Library]

[Cheshire Cat sightings are really rather common at Genessia library. Typically the pink and purple striped feline can be found snoozing happily on a table, or comfortably tucked away somewhere along the many rows of bookshelves. But anyone visiting the library today may be faced with a far more unusual spectacle: the usually sleeping cat is wearing glasses and wide awake, surrounded by at least 7 open books. All depicting beautifully decorated illustrations of baked goods - from cakes to pies to choux pastries.

At the moment he doesn't appear to have noticed anyone approaching, far too engrossed in noting down ingredients and recipe ideas. Care to disturb him?]



[Action - Pan's Grocery]

[Who would have guessed shopping for ingredients could be such a difficult task? It's hard enough for a cat to keep control of the shopping trolley (though it's probably harder for everyone else swerving out of his path to avoid getting run over), but there are also so many aisles! How is anycat supposed to find anything?

After picking up eggs, milk, and butter, Ches can be found floating around the home baking section blinking at the array of sugars. Anyone who draws close enough for conversation will receive a wide trademarked grin and a question that is actually 100% serious despite sounding very much like a riddle.]


When is sugar not the right sugar?


[Video | Action - TARDIS]

[Ches has crushed many eggs in his 9 lives. They are, after all, exceedingly easy to break. Plus the crunch is ever so satisfying even if the clean up can take a little longer than desired. But cracking them such that the edible part ends up in a bowl and not all over his paws is a very different challenge.

It's around mid-afternoon when he bumps the video feed on with his nose to avoid getting raw baking ingredients all over the communication device. Anyone watching will get a very clear close up of cat nose and whiskers, which slowly moves back to reveal approximately half a dozen smashed eggs on the counter.

In his defence, these paws and claws were probably not designed for baking.]


I don't suppose anyone knows the secret to successfully cracking eggs?
 
 
Rapunzel

Action in Attleton
[She said she was going to look high and low in this city when she was working and helping others, or in Genessia doing other things and it was a goal she was going to do no matter what. However, she didn't want to make it too obvious that it was her. So after much researching and learning a little bit about superheroes and disguises. The young woman decided to make her own costume and search for her that way... and maybe help people and stop crimes too if she was lucky.

So when Rapunzel had managed to complete it within a couple days, she was soon dressed in her new costume and was heading out, using her hair to swing and climb to high places to take a look to see if she could find any sign of the person she was looking for.

She seemed rather focused on getting around that she didn't realize people might be staring at her weird.]


Action in Genessia
[Rapunzel had been on the look out as usual, but she couldn't help but notice something going on out of the corner of her eye. There appeared to be a man pulling at a womans handbag while the woman appeared to br holding on to it for dear life. After a quick moment the guy soon goes to knock the woman to the floor in the hopes that she would let go, but her grip was like iron.

Rapunzel had seen enough.]


Hey! Leave that woman alone! [The moment Rapunzel had spoken up, the guy had left the bag and ran. Rapunzel took the time to quickly run over.]

Don't worry, I'll make sure he is captured...then I'll come back and heal you right up.

[And with that she starts to run after him, making note for where to come back as soon as she got him. Unbraiding her hair she threw it to tangle up on something to use to swing, making her move faster than it had been before. She as slowly gaining ground, slowly catching up. Thankfully he was't as fast as she had expected and soon she was grabbing her trusty frying pan she paused to take aim, soon going to throw it to the back of the guys head, knocking him over.]

Got him! I didn't honestly think that was going to work. [She soon made her way over a small confident smile on her face.]

So you thought you could run away from the great... Um... [She didn't want to say her actual name...so she thought of a name off the spot.] Blood... Frying Pan... That's not a good name. [And for the moment she is going off into a small talk to herself. Thankfully the guy was outcold to really pay much attention.] I mean blood is intimidating, but it doesn't work. Oh! Blood Justice is better. You were defeated by Blood Justice.

[And she seemed happy about it before looking around.]

Excuse me. Can I have a moment of your time?
 
 
Mantis
03 October 2018 @ 09:38 pm
[This infomercial plays mostly in Nova City, but might appear now and again in the other cities as well if they have television access. You're more likely to see it between 2-6 a.m. though, but who knows, maybe there was a mix-up at the TV station and it appeared during normal hours.]

[It starts black and white with a familiar bug-like woman standing at the sink, running water over a cutting board and trying to scrub it with a sponge. The sponge keeps flopping out of her fumbling fingers, flying into her face, slipping into the disposal where she has to dig it out, and at one point she's just straight up slapping the board with the sponge before looking at the camera with a silent wail. All the while, a charismatic male voice narrates.]


"Tired of using those prehistoric, confusing, hard-to-use sponges? Of course you are, they're impossible!"

[Mantis strides purposefully across the kitchen floor, heading straight for a sponge. She steps on it and over-exaggeratedly windmills her arms before falling headfirst into a garbage can.]

"Yuck! What a mess! Looks like it's time to upgrade to the future of sponges..."

[A smartly dressed woman with perfect blonde curls pulls the alien of failure out of the trash, plucks the banana peel that hangs between her antennae, and hands over what looks like a mini-yoga mat. As soon as the bug lady touches it, the screen bursts into color, and her mouth falls open with joy and delight.]

"The Mega Sponge XTC!"

[As the narrator explains all of the wonders of this ultra-light and super-absorbent sponge, the blonde woman performs a variety of chores and tasks with perfect grace, dignity, and a big sparkling white smile. Mantis only appears again at the very end of the infomercial where she picks up her old sponge, shakes a chiding finger at it, and hucks it out the window. The camera feed switches to the streets below where it follows the arc of the airborne sponge, spinning pathetically through the air, until it hits the street with a wet plop. A car runs over it, there's a squeal of brakes as the vehicle spins off-screen, and something explodes while a distant man bellows a deep guttural scream. The Mega Sponge logo spins to the center of the screen with a 1-800 number flashing below. Buy five, get one free! CALL NOW!]
