I love you, so don't be mad ok

[ Video Feed opens up to an image of (1) Sampo Koski. Anyone who recognises one of the main offices of PokeGO would instantly realise that he's sitting in one of the break rooms, and there's such an easy-to-see image of a certain ~~Cold Dragon Young~~ Dan Heng looming behind him, arms crossed, watching him like a mother watching their child apologise to their teacher for misbehaving in class. ]

Heyyyy, fam. It's your favorite fella, Sampo Koski. I hope everyone's having a GREAT day--okay, yes okay, I'm getting to it-- [ there was something like a sharp prod against his leg as he almost dodges the point, but he's GETTING to it, okay!? Put the tail away, Dragon Man! Sheesh when did you get so tall... ]

A-hem. Anywayyyyy.... So this lucky guy went on a walk around Kanto the other day with a real good pal and I found something prett-yyyy cool. Even though your old friend didn't. Realise how. Really cool it was, and all...
Look, really RARE things shouldn't just be sitting out in the open like that! It's easy to mistake a diamond for quartz when it's just in the middle of the first rock you pick up, you know?

Anyway.

Herba Mystica.

It's a pret-ty rare plant, all things considered and... well. I know there's been a-buzz about some people lookin' for really powerful medicinal things to help some people in the city with some ailments they're struggling with...

And since I'm SUCH a nice guy! And since all of you banded together to help me with my rock problem, well!
I just thought. Maybe.

I dunno.
We could get some folks willing to join me--US! PokeGo! Even if you're not with the group, you know--in being able to come along and maybe... help a guy find more of this plant? And this time not pick it without thinking?

...be a pal...?

No pressure, though, I uh. I'll be doing my best to help and do a lot of work too! So. Come on, whadda ya all say?

WHO: Kyryll Chudomirovich Flins
WHERE: Libra and Gemini crosspost
WHEN: 11/3 ish
WHAT: Tech support
WARNINGS: fae-rustrations

Please sate my curiosity. Might I ask what it means when the little red rectangle icon in the upper right corner is blinking continuously? I had thought it was morse code, but it seems to only spell out SSSSSSSSS endlessly.

[No one taught him about charging a phone.]

WHO: Zevran
WHERE: Network: Libra
WHEN: 1st week of November
WHAT: local elf has a new feature
WARNINGS: None; will update if changes

[Zevran sounds distracted, and a little echo-y. Like he's in a room with good accoustics. He's partly talking to himself at first, before addressing the network at large.]

Hm, one day, I shall use this for other things, I suppose - however! My dearest, best friend in the city, Husk, advised me long ago... occasionally one develops magic while in this world.

[He's just saying that to bother Husk. They met once.]

However, no one has mentioned other ah. Physical. Alterations.

[LIKE WHAT, BRO.]

Are such things also common to experience? Or am I having a very convincing hallucination?

video; un: allears

WHO: Miyabi and you!
WHERE: Libra, she doesn't know about Gemini yet
WHEN: The first week of November
WHAT: Miyabi is very confused.
WARNINGS: None, will update the post if necessary

[video;]

[The video opens up to a view of a woman in Black Order attire (customized for movement) standing in front of the Seven Star Mall. There is a mostly-naked statue of a man pondering a cube behind her, and he has festive pumpkin nipple tassels for those who care, but the camera really only captures Miyabi's round, confused face and red eyes. And her ears. The tall fox ears take up most of the camera, actually.]

Greetings. Guardian Hoshimi Miyabi, reporting to Kaisou as instructed. I was told that a junior Guardian by the name of Jon would explain what has happened in my absence. I'm aware there was a recent, uh, restructuring, so we can skip that part.

Is this the new Black Order headquarters? It looks like a mall to me. There are children playing in the parking lot. Unless... maybe I took a wrong turn?

[No point in subtlety here, this is Miyabi.]

I also haven't been assigned a new superior. In that case, I won't be turning in a written report unless requested.

Video; UN; BossLady

Who: Cifera and anyone unfortunate enough to see the video
Where: Libra Network
When: November 8th
What: An advertisement video for a new entertainment venue
Warnings: None

[The video opens to a woman with short mousy brown hair dyed blue at the ends wearing a fitted suit.]

Good evening users of the Libra app. I am here tonight to tell you of the grand reopening of the Chateau De Minuit casino. Now under new management, aka Cifera, aka me.

[As she says this last part she gives a theatrical bow.]

Now I know you are surely asking yourself, “Cifera, why should I visit your casino in particular instead of a competitor?”. Well I’m glad you asked dear guest. Our venue is home to all sorts of games of chance and skill. Everything from poker, baccarat, Pai Gow, and even French Tarot tournaments.

[As she lists off the various games she pulls out the cards and tiles they are played with. Where she was keeping them is a mystery]

And in celebration of our reopening happening during the month of Thanksgiving, we will be holding a themed party the weekend after the holiday. Come by for all sorts of themed drinks and entertainment. We hope to see you at Chateau De Minuit, located on 1040 Sapphire Avenue in the entertainment district.

[The video ends with Cifera giving one last theatrical bow.]

video | un: blackbirdtarot

WHO: August and you
WHERE: Gemini
WHEN: November 7th
WHAT: August is doing August Things
WARNINGS: he swears?

[The video is of August's workroom in his house, because his house is warm and not underwater in November. Please enjoy the shot of his bird Julian in a little birdy sweater while August sorts his scrap collection.]

Alex and Jules both reminded me that I haven't done this yet so: two things! First, if you're an isekai or, uh, suddenly stuck with shit like tails or wings or something that fucks up your wardrobe, I'll make you a new outfit or two for free or just alter some of your existing stuff. I don't do denim, so you're on your own for jeans, and I don't do leather. Do know someone who can do denim, though, if you're desperate.

Second: so I can't cook for fewer than like, six. Alexandre is pretty much the same, I'm just worse about it. Anyone who wants to come over the Friday after Thanksgiving for Thanksgiving Round Two: Fuck Black Friday, just tell me your spice tolerance because I was raised by two women who look at spice warnings and laugh.

TEST DRIVE MEME #5

( You're about to view content that a community administrator has marked as possibly inappropriate for anyone under the age of 18. )

VIDEO; UN: DOREMIMEM

WHO: Cyrene and anyone else!
WHERE: Libra network
WHEN: Early November
WHAT: Cyrene needs help naming her new pet!
WARNINGS: nothing

[ The video begins with an out-of-focus shot of a blurry pink shape on a field of blue. Within moments, the camera settles, and the true form of the blob comes into view--an adorable, wide-eyed chimera, sitting calmly on top of a neatly-made bed. When the angle of the camera moves, shifting down lower to get on the chimera's level, it tilts its head and lets out a tiny 'awoo?' ]

Hiiii~! ♪ [ An off-camera giggle. ] Oh, you're just so adorable, aren't you...?

Ahem--Καλημέρα (good morning) everyone! Should I introduce myself-- I should introduce myself. I'm Cyrene! I just brought this little cutie home for the first time... and she needs a name. A good name. And I'm... weirdly out of ideas, sooo... I'm asking for suggestions! I can't just call her Pink Chimera forever, after all. I'm open to anything, really, but I will not let anyone call her anything ugly or mean.

[ As she speaks, she reaches out a hand to ruffle the fur on top of the chimera's head. It responds with a thrilled coo, squeezing its eyes shut and fluttering its little wings. Cyrene can be heard babytalking to it in Greek for another few moments before the video ends. ]

MINI-ANNOUNCEMENT + OCTOBER ACTIVITY RESULTS

MINI-ANNOUNCEMENT: SCHEDULE CHANGE!

Hello, everyone! Now, you may be wondering... Where's the event? About that-

After a heavy set of occurrences that was October's test drive, we decided to shuffle things around a bit. Rather than an event this month, we'll be posting a mingle instead!

The event will be shifted to December and be a more light-hearted, seasonal bit of fun before we set up where the metaplot - and character's involvement in it! - is heading in the new year.

Thank you for your understanding and we hope you have an enjoyable rest of the year here at Children of Bahamut!

CLAIMS, WARNING LIST, AND DROPS

OCTOBER CLAIMS

These characters were claimed during the month of October! Make sure to help them feel welcome!
