44th Detonator [Audio]

It appears that all of the monsters that showed up a week ago are gone now. Though the bodies are gone, the writing in Spero still remains... it doesn't seem that anything can be done about that.

...In case you haven't been informed, the subway between Spero and Discedo takes approximately seven hours. It's a long trip, so plan accordingly.

[pause]

Watch, we've lost two members, Mia and Sweden. This puts us at eight members, a small number especially with three cities to focus on now. For those of you that aren't aware, the Watch is a voluntary organization dedicated to protecting and patrolling the various cities in Fortuna... and we're always recruiting new members.

In addition, with the disappearance of Sweden, there's currently no one working the Soup Kitchen in Dissimulo. If you want to work there, inform me immediately.

[There's another lengthy pause.]

...Yulie wants to start a church service on Sunday mornings and possibly Wednesday as well. If you're interested, you may attend or speak with her..... as she's happy to see any of you. [KRESNIK IS FROWNING SO MUCH THOUGH. And you bet your ass that he's going to be there to make sure that no one harms his sister B|.]

She hasn't completely decided yet, but she'll let you know.

...Country politics?

[starspangledhero]

Yeah we'll go with that.

[brotundbier.livejournal.com]

None, technically. I'm currently chipped, though I believe without it I'd regain status as a nation.

I forgot about that... _{[She'll frown slightly as she thinks about it.]} ... I'm not sure, either, but I'll do my best to make sure I don't offend anyone.

[waytoopatient.livejournal.com]

...I can fight. I was a champion in karate back at home, with a black belt, and I'd be more than willing to help out if it's needed. We're stuck here, after all, so...

[We might as well do the best we can to survive. Even if she'd rather things stay peaceful. That clearly isn't going to happen here.]

Mm. Do I have to officially sign up anywhere?

[musicboxsoldier.livejournal.com]

I'm certain that you won't, Yulie.

It seems that America is interested in attending your church service.

[musicboxsoldier.livejournal.com]

[He briefly wonders if Heiji would kill him if he allowed her to sign up]

Officially, here. (http://musicboxsoldier.livejournal.com/10547.html) However, I can interview you now instead.

[musicboxsoldier.livejournal.com]

You have personal experience from being in a war though, correct?

[musicboxsoldier.livejournal.com]

[He briefly wonders if he should ask, but...]

Are you and Japan enemies with each other still?

[starspangledhero]

Not too fond of the male version at the moment 'cause of the you know. I'm cool with the girl Japan though.

[musicboxsoldier.livejournal.com]

Noted.

[...] What do you make of the recent events?

[starspangledhero]

What do you mean? The bodies and fog and things?

[musicboxsoldier.livejournal.com]

Yes, you've been here longer than me.

...I thought you might have more insight about it.

[starspangledhero]

The only thing that's consistent is that mysterious fog is always bad. Not the usually misty-raining weather, but the kind that rolls in and blocks you view. It's happened before, and the effects were worse than what happened this time. And it all started out with a bad feeling--I think it's stopped that, because no one else but me started feeling like the world was caving in when the bodies started flickering and the fog rolled in, but I know. Stuff around here never gets bad and then gets better. It starts out bad and gets worse before things go back to normal. No one believes me but it's been a pattern for two years now. Bodies show up and worse shit is coming along, stuff that's driven people off the deep end in the past.

And people say I'm paranoid? Hell no! It ain't paranoia if you know that the bad things aren't all in your head. Why it keeps happening, I dunno. The best I can do is to keep up with the patterns and try to weather it. Fog especially.

[musicboxsoldier.livejournal.com]

You're right, a specific type of fog usually leads to something bad occurring... and the fact that situations always becomes worse before getting better. It seems that some people don't realize it, probably because they haven't been here as long.

I agree, and we can't be too cautious. [...] Have you spoken to the scientists that arrived here?

[starspangledhero]

See?! See?! I knew it wasn't just me! It's a conspiracy, man!

No I was busy.

[musicboxsoldier.livejournal.com]

I wouldn't call it a conspiracy, just a general pattern.

They're not the original scientists that were here before.

[starspangledhero]

Conspiracy pattern!

They're always changing 'em up! What else is new?

[musicboxsoldier.livejournal.com]

...I wasn't aware that the group of scientists always changed around.

[starspangledhero]

It's not a regular thing, but they've died and others've come in and it's all a mess to keep track of.

[Locked; 50%]

[musicboxsoldier.livejournal.com]

I see.

...I spoke with Jacqueline, one of the scientists that arrived here, and she claimed that there are watchers watching everyone.

[brotundbier.livejournal.com]

Yes. I grew up on the battlefield, so to speak.

[musicboxsoldier.livejournal.com]

Your knowledge from the battlefield could prove to be useful.

Do you have any weapon on hand?

[Locked; ALL THE PERCENT all of it]

[starspangledhero]

WHAT.

There's people watching me?! They're watching me right now?!

[ Congrats, Kresnik. You have increased America's paranoia by a million. There is no turning back now. ]
