Newspaper - Saturday Edition

[plus_tip]

[Did you subscribe to The Genessia Tribune? Did you even remotely wish you had a newspaper or some other form of media to refer to for news, weather, and current events? Then you're in luck! There's a paperboy riding through the streets of Genessia flinging newspapers onto doorsteps or, if you're unlucky, through your window. Even remote locations in the other cities will still get a paper if one of the residents ever wanted one. The Paperboy is just that dedicated.]

[And if you're one of the following people, and you happen to subscribe to the newspaper, the Paperboy may or may not have flung the newspaper through that person's window and/or broke something in the area: Enomoto Takane.]

Dear Tabby

Due to the lack of submissions, there will be no responses from our resident advice columnist this week. You guys just think you know it all, don't you?

Thievery Rampant in Genessia City

What started out as several hits on local fruit vendors has rapidly expanded into a growing rash of petty theft. The culprit? FURRIES. Furries are typically men and women who think they look good wearing chopped off bits of animals, and they run around making disturbing grunting noises at small children and trees. The biggest culprit appears to be a young surfer male with a monkey tail. "He stole my remote control!" one citizen complained. "I went to the window because I heard a bunch of shouting, and when I came back to the couch, the remote control was nowhere to be seen." "I'm pretty sure he stole a couple of socks, because I can't find those anywhere," a disgruntled housewife complained. Citizens are warned to check and inventory all of their belongings as well as buy surplus cleaning products, because if the monkey thief isn't stealing your stuff, he may be satisfied with flinging crap at your window.

Kidnapping Culprit Makes Ransom Demand

Nefarious and butt ugly villain Skeletor has announced to the world that he has still kidnapped the guardian of Fayren. He has stated that he is willing to exchange the Guardian for three charms. Speculation is on the rise as to just what someone like him could possibly want to wish for. 77% of those who were polled believe that the thing he wants most is a date for Valentine's Day, but it's a little late for that, don't you think? In the absence of Fayren's Guardian, mutton prices are on the rise.

Blake at least had the presence of mind to go out with Gambol Shroud. She may be angry right now, but she knows that they still have enemies out there.

She'll storm around for a little while once she hits the streets, until the worst of the anger fades away. Finally, after a little while of that she stops and sighs.

"I know you're there, Ruby."

[onecream_fivesugar]

Ruby had kept her distance while Blake did her thing, her very angry thing. She freezes when Blake finally speaks up.

"Y-you do? I mean, yeah! of course you do! I wasn't really hiding or anything!" Oh no... What does she do now? She hadn't thought this far ahead.

"Uhmmm... Do you want to find a place to sit down?"

[descendsfromshadow]

Not that it was any fault of Ruby's. Blake was a hard person to sneak up on when you were trying to be sneaky, as it was she'd heard Ruby following since she'd left the apartment.

"Not really." She was calmer, true, but she was still simmering away angrily. "I'm fine, really, you should go back. Don't worry about it."

[onecream_fivesugar]

Ruby can tell she's still upset, and that just gets Ruby all the more concerned for her friend. It took quite a bit to get under Blake's skin, what ever she read must have been just awful.

"Alright... Well, I didn't really have anything going on back there. So how about I just stick around with you for a little while? You can do what ever you have to do, I'll just kind of be around while you do it."

[descendsfromshadow]

She considers that for a second, before just sighing again. Even if Ruby just hung around with her for awhile it would just mean the obvious question would be hanging in the air the whole time, making things awkward.

She looks around for a second before walking over and grabbing a paper from a stack in front of a store.

"Here." She hands it over to Ruby. It wasn't as if she wouldn't see it eventually. "Just read the first article."
