a: cookie disaster

[ Upon leaving the research center after being briefed via PowerPoint presentation, you'll find a robot that looks like a salt and pepper shaker tailing you, and offering you a fortune cookie! What a cute little robot. It's just so bad that it the cookie gives you strange fortunes like "Someone has Googled you recently". Creepy, huh?

But whether or not you read your fortune out loud, the robot seems to be very, very intent on helping. It follow you around and offer strange, and possibly dangerous advice. Your fortune said "You're allergic to the last thing you ate"? Well, the robot will offer to cut open your stomach to remove the food out! It cares. And this robot will chase you down, threaten you, shoot you with its laser eyes, or all of the above! Apart from that, it's definitely very noisy. Sorry, it's not sorry about how loud it is as it announces to you and to every passerby that "You will spend the next five hours sitting on the toilet"!

(Feel free to think of the most mundane or crazy fortunes and helpful "solutions!") ]

b: error in transporation

[ The metro-rail is basically what everyone who doesn't want to walk uses to get around the colony. It's usually a convenient means of transporation, but with the population growing, the rides start to get crowded! Lucky for you, today isn't one of those days. There aren't a lot of people riding the trains today, and there are probably just three or so people in each cart. You can sit down, and you don't have to smell the person who's invading your personal space because of how crowded it is!

Hold on tight, though, as the train comes to an abrupt stop! The conductor gets every passenger's attention through the intercom right away, and explains that there's some trouble in the next stop that services will be interrupted until further notice. Basically? You're stuck on the train until whatever problem there is is solved. Hope you have nothing important going on!

Well, of course you don't! You just arrived, after all. ]

c: obligatory horror option

[ After being briefed, of course you'd want to find a place to settle down in. Thankfully, the CEO and CERES is generous enough to provide you all with housing, and free rent for two months! Just how swell is that? But upon claiming an apartment of your own, you'll slowly notice that things aren't… how they should be. You blink, and you find the figure of someone who you never ever want to see before you. It's a faceless being, but their other physical characteristics sure are there. You blink again, and they're gone.

You don't feel safe. You start getting paranoid. What if something else happens? Maybe you should find another place to sleep in tonight. Knock on your neighbour's door, or wait outside your building to see if anyone will pick you up.

Or you could always be brave and spend the night at your own apartment. You'll find the lights flickering on and off even though you've switched them off already; the doors opening and closing on their own; the furniture suddenly not being in its place as if someone was dragging them around the house. It's definitely causing a lot of disruption so late at night, and it's not just you who can hear it. Your neighbours can hear the strange noises coming from your apartment, too. ]

d: vivid
✧ ViVid info

[ You thought you were done with ViViD for the day, but for some messed up reason, you clicked on something you weren't supposed to, and you're back in the game.

Your mission? Form a party of two members or more, beat the boss before it beats you! Yes. The boss is a butt with a tongue. It attacks with its tongue by either impaling the character/s, or by releasing pink hairs into the air which will fall all over the stage and causes confusion for a short duration of time.

The mission begins once you've formed a party! Good luck, and don't let love be over! ]

Not just jumped the gun. You almost shot me with it.

[His tone was very pointed and matter-of-fact. Maybe if you stained your ears, you'd even hear a hint of snark in it. But all things considered, he couldn't hold it entirely against Kazuya to be a bit edgy around someone with a COMP. He's been side-eying App Abusers constantly himself. But despite how unbelievable hearing something about other worlds was... The information about Polaris controlling multiple universes along with the Akashic Record and all the crazy crap THAT could do... It wouldn't be a stretch for alternate universes to exist.

Honestly, he just felt even more smaller than he did before. The universe much more huger than he could imagine. Maybe this guy was a Shining One too, in a way...]

Really? Man... I can't believe there's other worlds with people going through similar experiences as I did. I've already gotten an idea on what I'm gonna do and how to fix everything, but the issue now is to.. [Do it. That is before ending up here.] Well, anyway! It's just been a crazy week for me too.

[belfire]

Hmm...

[From the sounds of it, Hiro thought he was in a position to stop whatever was going on in his world. Maybe he was, oh, how would Atsuro put it, the main protagonist in his crazy, demon filled adventure? Kazuya could almost sympathise, except that there was something nagging at him. Hiro was plainly human. It seemed... something. He wasn't sure. Something was nagging at him about it]

...yeah, those types of situations tend to be stressful. [understatement] When you get back, I wish you luck, I suppose. God knows I needed it when crawling my way up the demon totem pole back home. Watch out for whatever happens at the end though, you might find yourself getting dragged into something really complicated.

[theshiningone]

Oh, thanks a bunch. If we do get thrown a curveball at the end of everything, I'm pretty sure we can handle it. As long as I have my Hero Brigade, I feel like I can do anything.

[Deep down, he hoped everything would end simply. But he wasn't going to dwell too hard on it since he's thrown his hesitations aside for his choice. But the thought of other Administrators out there... It was more than unnerving. The universe was truly a big place that needed some fixing. But if there were other people like Kazuya out there that were keeping things in balance in their own way, then everything would be alright.

But demon totem pole, huh? As curious as he was, Hiro wasn't sure if he could fathom what Kazuya had been through. He had his own battles to fight just like his own...]

Well, anyway... Thanks for the chat! I'm gonna go see if anyone else needs some poking at. [Which would be Hironese for saying he's going to see if there's any other distressed faces in the crowd to try and perk up. With a little wave, he'll make his way to another end of the train.] Later!
