What are some things that are considered "normal" where you're from, but aren't normal here? Or what's something that's unremarkable here, but would be the stuff of dreams back in your world?

[The video starts at night. The camera is pointed up at the night sky above Blossomcrown. Perhaps it is a video started on accident? Well no because soon a voice speaks but doesn't appear on camera. The voice is deep and smooth and one only a couple of people have heard since his voice box was repaired.]

A god and a genius fixed me. I can speak now. They helped me when they didn't have to. They helped because they wanted to.

I want to help.

If you can't sleep, I can help. I can make you sleep.

I can craft dreams for you. Good dreams, if you want.

Help you sleep soundly.

If you want me to, tell me. I'll help.

[A clawed purple hand reaches out and picks up the phone, finally showing the wide smiling face of CatNap as he looks into the camera and ends the video.]

{ the video starts pretty well, set in one of the initial apartments everyone is given. ezra himself is dressed in fairly casual clothes, just a regular t-shirt and jeans. his left arm visibly has tattoos where the t-shirt doesn't reach, but other than that everything seems pretty normal. }

Hey! I heard a fair few people used this to find people to spar with, so figured I'd give it a shot as well. You don't have to worry about going too easy on me, I heal pretty fast so hopefully that makes it sound more fun and challenging. Oh! I was also going to ask if anyone needed any help for quests as well, the sooner I can get out there and doing something to help the better I'll feel about this whole thing.

{ and this is where it goes downhill. his gaze drifts, a lot more uncertain. }

Um. I was also wondering if there are any people familiar with hell? { he takes a deep breath } I met someone who said I should probably be careful how I ask questions about it but uh- Well, it's kind of easier to just ask all in one place and see if anyone is willing to answer. But.

{ this time his eyes drift to the side, the smile on his face dropping before he sighs out }

Does the word 'Nephilim' mean anything to anyone?

[The video goes out at exactly midnight on May 1st. MK has been preparing this for an entire year. The choreography, the song choice, and getting his clones involved to practice. Which even included Candid. They'd talked after the whole dream thing and though the apology is not yet accepted, it was heard. Candid now is here to help out. Which brought his number up to four. And a fifth clone brings the number up to the right number.

The video starts with MK in the middle in his black and yellow suit. To the sides of him two clones each, Porty, Artsy, Candid, and the fifth one. Porty is in his usual shudder shades and fur coat, Artsy's clothes splattered with paint, Candid with his hair down and the fifth an MK in a leather jacket. The music starts and the boys start to dance and sing the lyrics. Of course, the titular line ends up being It's Gonna Be May~. They are all in perfect sync as they dance, moving in and out from the center of the video.

The song ends with that line again; It's Gonna Be May! The music dies down and MK grins.]


I had do to this. Had the idea last year but like after May first. So happy May everyone!

I'm so doing this again next year if anyone wants to join in for that one. Let me know!

Did anyone else have people at the Otherworlder Fan Merch Store tell you you shouldn't look at a section? Especially in the back of the store, where they have all the books and a bunch of them are sorted by those weird names. The store employee told me I wouldn't wanna see the ones with "Sparklecest" on the tag, but I was on so many of the covers there!!

Actually, I wanna find out what all the names mean! Do you know any of them?

P.S. pet tax + kid tax?

[The video starts up on a new face, someone who's apparently found her apartment and original clothes and everything. She is very orange. She has also propped the phone up somehow and spread out across the table are a whole bunch of pamphlets -- pretty much every pamphlet it's possible to get when first arriving to this world -- and a notepad which, due to angle and distance, it's possible to see some writing in it but not to make out what it actually says.]

Allll right, everything seems to be working... Hello everybody!

[That smile is very wide and almost tangibly nervous. She bounces on her feet; a pen is in one hand even as she gestures them a lot as she talks.]

It is great to meet all of you, I am super excited to get to know more people who've been brought into all of this... From what I've seen, we have the responsibility of helping save this world, but we're also responsible for leading our own lives like normal people, needing places to stay, money, jobs...

[She picks up her notepad, eyes darting over what she's already written.]

It sounds like there are a lot of benefits to joining one of these Guilds, but I'd love to hear from anyone who actually has experience with them, good or bad... Or experience with other jobs or ways to help! And if someone happens to have any more questions, who or what is the best source of information in this city? After all, it's always safer to know what to expect.

--Oh! I almost forgot. I'm Anxiety!

Hello! Some of you might remember me, but in case you don't - my name is Ren Jinguji. I returned during New Years and I'm resuming my work as an idol!

[With rewnewed energy, as one might notice from his annoyingly sparkling smile.]

But that's not why I'm making this post, really. I want to propose a game! Something so we can get to know each other better.

This is, two truths, one lie. Write three things about yourself, one of which is a lie. Others will have to guess which one it is. Of course, you can also reply as a video or a voice message, if that's easier.

Simple, right? Let's have fun.

[The video turns on to Rinku looking extremely festive. She waves at the camera and sparkles.]

Hi, everyone! I wanna announce something that's happening in a week and some! You might've seen the posters around town already, but guess what? New Year's is coming up, and we're working hard to bring you a show that'll make you all 「Happy Around!」

The New Year's Party Live, presented by the Music Club!

Come to the Sunwaning Theatre in hall B at 7 for food and party games, and starting from 9 to midnight, we're gonna be doing musical performances on the stage too, up until midnight! It's gonna be so much fun! You're definitely gonna want to be there!

Oh! While I'm here, what's your favourite thing about New Year's? You never know! Maybe we'll make it part of the show!

-

(Following up from here! The event will have a log going up a few days before New Year's forward-dated to that night. Building on what worked and didn't work in Rinku's autumnal equinox live, Music Club members will be able to add their own performances to a TL about the performances, which caps off with a full-club song, and then everyone can tag the dinner and party. If your character is part of the Music Club and hasn't signed up yet, they can do so here or we can handwave it and they can just add a performance on the log with the others!)

I'm sorry to announce this but...Nen, Kenta, and Kagami have all gone home. [ He sounds a little sullen and sad. The house is so empty now so what the heck is he supposed to do with all this space?! ]

I never really noticed how big the house was until now. [ A sigh. ] But that's all I wanted to say. I apologize that it's not. It's not happy news but I think everyone has the right to know, especially those close to them.

Thank you, and I'm sorry.

To everyone who picked their own birthday: how did you pick it and what all did you think of?

Mecchan wants his own birthday. I know when Hina-chan's is because she hatched here in Ellipsa, but I don't know when Mecchan was born, and since Mary-chan just had a birthday a couple weeks ago, I think he wants his own.


[Attached: a short video of Mecchan wandering through the wrapping paper scraps from Mary's birthday, picking up a ribbon, thinking, and looking up at the viewer with a questioning warble, pointing to himself.]

(This is also pet tax) (technically?? Still not sure whether Pokémon you're raising count as pets or kids. Is there kid tax?)

So I wanna help Mecchan pick a birthday! Do you guys have suggestions or tips for him?

[Russell didn’t use the network much. It was kind of a hassle and talking to strangers wasn’t his idea of a good time. He needed help, though. So here he was.]

I need a job.

I’m 15 now, I guess.
I don’t have many skills and I’m not very strong.
I don’t really like talking to people.


[Wow. Really selling himself here, huh?]

Does anyone have anything that I could do?

[He stares at the screen for a minute or two, then adds.]

…Thanks.

[ the video opens to a large, serpentine beast with a wolf's pointed ears pulling back from the camera, having apparently started the recording via booping the phone's screen with her snoot. she flicks out a forked black tongue once, then lays her head down on her paws and says slowly: ]

What do you do when you feel like garbage, and you can't do anything to fix why? When you've just got to wait it out.

...I don't know how long I'm going to be waiting, so. The more ideas the better.

[ a beat, and then she adds: ]

Thanks.

[ The live feed opens to the sight of a very strange looking raccoon -- what makes it different from a normal one is the fact that its tummy has something on it that looks almost like a plastic bag.

Said raccoon seems to almost reach out towards the screen before a somewhat messy Stelle pulls them out of the way. ]


Hey!

What did I say about grabbing my phone again...?

[ ... ]

Anyway, hi. As you might have guessed I have a new friend. I was already planning on making a post, but guess I'm doing this earlier. Surprise?

So, I was going to come up with a name myself, but I've been pulling blanks, so now I'm asking you: what should my name my new son? Or daughter? I'm not actually sure which gender they are.

One question.

Why is it harder to fight monsters in video games than in real life?

Bit of a philosophical question today.

I have my own answer, but I can't help but be morbidly curious as to what the answers of those on Ellipsa would be to this one, so I'll toss it out: "why does life slumber?"

He devotes his life to looking after the house. His mate always follows when the master goes out. A gentleman sees him and goes away. A villain sees him and it spells bad luck. Who is he?

Well?


[Who is in the mood for a good riddle?]

Games aside, do you think it's possible to add a hot spring to a house? Maybe behind it? I am an old man and I like to soak.

The people who depart from this place . . . do they return home safely?

I ask because my sister is gone. And I hope that she is where she belongs.

If not, this world no longer has a reason for existing.
