[it's taken sizhui some time to figure out how to do a video post, but now that he (sort of) has the hang of it, it's easy enough for him to open the feed and get it positioned right so everyone can see him.]

Is it on...? Ah, yes, I think it is!

Hello there, everyone! My name is Lan Sizhui and I just arrived here not too long ago.

[he raises both hands and waves them in greeting, still hoping everyone can see alright, even though the screen is slightly off-kilter.] I find myself with not much to do right now, so I come with a question and a suggestion!

First off: what sorts of jobs are there around here? I know they surely won't pay for everything the whole time, so I'd like to get started on something as soon as possible.

Second of all: I have learned that there isn't a community garden to tend to. Having these new powers, I feel like it will be a little easier to take care of things, so I'd like to find some land and start a little garden for everyone to enjoy. [he grins outright, clasping both hands together now and holding them close to the left side of his face, clearly excited with the new idea.] It would be open to any and everyone and people could come and take as they please, I think.

Any thoughts on this? I will happily accept any other suggestions, too. [sizhui picks up the smartphone, holding it a little closer.] Thank you all for your help, I truly appreciate it!

[the feed ends shortly afterward, following the tiniest bit of fumbling on his end to get the phone to turn off.]

I have a couple things I wanna share!!

First is my birthday's on Monday so I wanna take a bunch of people out to the VR arcade in the Underground Mall! If you know me you're invited. I hope everyone has a ton of fun!

Also!! We were talking about this in the Music Club but there's more DJs in town than just me! So I wanna hold a

DJ COMPETITION

Everyone gets a small set and the audience all use those light-up bracelets to cheer on who they like! Then at the end, the audience votes for who they liked the best! We did these all the time at home, it'll be fun.

I hope you guys all come and see! And if you're a DJ too and I haven't talked to you yet, let me know and you can join too!

[ The video opens on Jean Kirstein and Reiner Braun standing side-by-side. They are each wearing a distinctive necklace: a blue-and-yellow sapphire with a river carved into its face. (The effect is that of a sun over a river.)

Jean begins. ]

We're here to announce the formation of Odyssey, a group dedicated to making expeditions in the Segments safer. Our goal is to organize, equip, and mobilize teams based on experience, skill, and compatibility of the members.

We're doing this because we've both been on a lot of expeditions. We've seen them go right, and we've seen them go very wrong. We believe that proper preparation and organization, both before and during expeditions, can make them safer for everyone involved.

[ Here, Jean stops speaking and Reiner takes over: ]

We have a lot of ideas we'd like to implement. First and foremost among them is making sure teams are balanced according to Seasonal abilities. For example, there are some things only Autumns can do, and we've had expeditions where we would've been screwed if I wasn't an Autumn.

Other ideas include establishing caches of supplies out in the Segments in case things go wrong. We also want to make sure everyone is well-equipped heading out. For that reason, our respective businesses (Volcanus and BraunSphere) will be contributing equipment.

[ Jean begins speaking again. ]

If you're interested in joining or in helping with supplies, equipment, et cetera, let us know. If you have questions, we're here to answer.

[OOC: answers can come from both Jean and Reiner (

hometown)!

Joining happens through the skills thread. You can leave it blank for now, but please update the skills in at earliest convenience.]

[This poor Spiritual Cultivator is looking rather worse for wear. He is wrapped in a blanket and his cheeks are red with fever.]

I won't be at the clinic today, I'm sorry. [He coughs and shifts away from the communicator to blow his nose. Oh dear.] If you are truly ill, contact me this w-w...

[And a sneeze!]

Excuse me. [He murmurs apologetically.] I will still help. Remember to eat your fruits and vegetables, friends, and get plenty of rest.

[On your screen is suddenly a red curtain and words pop up as the sultry voice of Lucifer reads said words aloud.]

Are you looking to change for the better? Do you want to improve some part of you and aren't sure where to start? Do you need support for your goals and ambitions?

Perhaps you just want to have a safe place to sit, self reflect, and speak to a trained professional about the thoughts in your head?

Well look no longer, valued citizen! BECAUSE!

[The curtain draws open and the Haven Hotel and Lucifer are revealed. Lucifer's six wings expand with red and white feathers as he smiles with his sharp teeth.]

The Haven Hotel is here for you! Come check in at this wonderful hotel and tell us how we can help you! We have trained therapists!

[There are flashes of pictures of his therapy staff, namely a girl with red hair, a pony, and a couple of Ellipsa locals.]

We have workshops to help you fine tune that new hobby you're pursuing.

[A flash of their workshop room, one of them filled with rubber ducks.]

And we offer walk-in counseling sessions for those days when you just need someone to talk to. Located in scenic Dayrise, we are here to help make your day, your year, and your life a better one. Come on down for a free tour!

Also, we have an indoor swimming pool that's open year round!

So come on in to the Haven Hotel. Your Safe Haven for your self-betterment.

General Housing Notes

Hello, everyone!

We have a lot of freedom when it comes to housing but we wanted to put down a few more guidelines in addition to common sense.

1. A reminder that house expansions aren't meant to be used on any kinds of apartments, as that would mean expanding inside a building, rather than a house.

2. Characters are free to have big yards. However, any yards that go over 50 acres should be discussed with the moderator team. Nightwake doesn't have infinite amounts of space, so the plots can't be humongous in size.

One option is extend the yard via portal dimensions, if characters run out of space.

If there are currently plots that are over 50 acres, please make sure to note that they're on the edge of the district they're in, rather than somewhere in the middle.

We will add more housing options in the near future, which includes places in the Segments. Please look forward to it.

Before I freak out just checking.
If I can't find someone and they aren't answering their phone but they're flower is in the flower yard and their still in my contacts, they come back right?

It isn't takes a while for them to disappear?

Is that how it works?

[Tau fidgets with her cloak a bit before speaking.]

It was suggested that...to make friends...I should find people with similar interests...And uhm...My main interest is art?

[Tau pulls her sketchbook out and shows off a surrealist pencil sketch for a moment before setting it back down again.]

I was wondering two things...If there are any other artists around...and if it would be a good idea...to maybe gather together...next month sometime? I was thinking that maybe having an afternoon of art together...might be fun? I like to sketch in Blossomcrown Park...but I would be willing to take other suggestions...

[Katsuki usually doesn't do video, because he much prefers being an asshole behind a wall of text but this was important. This was something that needed to be said-- and shown-- and text wouldn't work.

So the video opens up with the blonde sitting at a table, looking stern and already mad without even saying anything yet.]

I have just one thing to say, and I'm going to keep this short and sweet.

[He pulls out his phone (using a laptop to make this post in the first place) and he scrolls through his camera roll for a moment before showing it off. Letting everyone see a boy with green curls and freckles, who had his picture taken when he wasn't looking and was smiling so bright and happy.]

This? This is Deku. If you hurt him, or insult him, or make him cry I WILL track you down and break your legs.

Or even worse: I'll turn 'ya into a vampire! So you better watch your mouth around him and treat him with respect, goddamn it!

[And the feed ends there! It really was short and sweet--]

[ The image of a young girl with a circuit-like pattern flowing through the shadows of her hair and cloak appears. She speaks softly, and as she does so, her colors shift from blue and white to red and black on occasion depending on her mood. ]

Greetings. My name is Sage Robotnik. I am an advanced artificial intelligence and the child of Dr. Ivo Robotnik, who some of you might know better as Dr. Eggman.

It appears that a previous version of me was present in this reality some time ago, and is now gone. I will endeavor to honor her legacy, but please understand that I am also my own individual and that I cannot reproduce her relationships or pick up where she left off. I am effectively starting from zero with you all, so do not treat me as if I were the "previous" Sage that was here.

That being the case, I see from her original posts that she scanned the entire network of this place upon arrival. I will not be doing that, and will attempt to acclimate myself to this location more organically. I will consider it an experiment in learning things the way biological lifeforms do.

Please understand, as well, that I do not have a physical form. I can manipulate objects and appear solid using hard light and precise magnetic fields, but I am actually data and do not possess a tangible body. This may make some aspects of interaction difficult, but I will endeavor to do my best in meeting all of you.

[ Sage smiles, shifting to white and blue more definitively. ]

I look forward to gathering more data from you all. This concludes my introduction.

[ Locked to Dr. Eggman. ]

Father. I know I am a different version of the Sage who was here previously, and I cannot replace her. But you are still my father, and my love for you is still very real. I hope that we can still see each other as father and daughter, despite these circumstances. I know I can never take her place, but I hope that I can be as useful to you as she was.

[ ooc: Essentially, Sage as I was playing her before wasn't working out. This is a new rebooted version, with a new network username and everything. Basically treat her as an all new individual, folks. ]

Bday Announcement - Locked from Keandow, Primedow, and SonIDW (slight backdate)

Hey all! So due to cosmic coincidence, it seems like Older Sonic, Older Shadow, Fluffy Shadow, and I all have Birthdays in the same week.

But since the others aren't NEAR as cool as me, they haven't even registered this, so this weekend, we got ourselves a sorta surprise party for them. A surprise in that I just make sure Big Blue can't see me for five minutes so I can set it up and sudden party.

All friends of Hedgehogs are welcome to come and enjoy some food and games! Pay attention to signs, those are important rules.

Also angry Shadow, if its your Birthday too, come get some cake, just keep any fights outside the party.

Good afternoon, everyone. My name is Baizhu, and I am an herbalist and physician currently working out of Solarpeak.

[He will attach the location of his shop, in case anyone is interested.]

I would be interested in speaking with anyone who experienced adverse effects due to touching the barrier that was recently erected to block the sky, particularly if their maladies have not yet entirely subsided. And... anyone who was infected by a vampire.

[The doctor clears his throat softly.]

I would be willing to host anyone in my workroom in the Research Centre if making the journey to Solarpeak is too much to ask.

What's an odd or weird thing you've done, or can do?

[There's definitely a need for some lighthearted questions after what happened recently, right?]

And I don't mean like... oh this was something unbelievable that no one could relate to. Just... normal weird things. Like...

[He pauses to think.]

I learned how to play a single tune on the piano for a friend, and it's still the only thing I can play. I can't play the piano.

Rewards System Addition

Hello, dear players!

Thanks to a player suggestion, we have added a new option for handling Rewards!

We introduce The Thread Bank, a post where you can gather all your finished threads that no longer get any comments to "bank" them for use later. This method is completely optional and you can continue using the Rewards page as you have!

Those who do wish to start using the new system are free to make a completely new thread for their rewards on the page, as long as they remember to link to the old one. However, you can just apply the new system to the old thread as well.

Counting comments and keeping track of how much have been spent is all on your responsibility! The mods will keep an eye out, but we trust that our players do things correctly!

Have a nice weekend! We'll see you again on Bimonthly Update in July.
