[ The video post flickers on to show two people, both looking rather different in demeanor. The taller of the two looks to have a scowl on his face, and eyes and hair a matching deep green. He’s not happy to be here, he doesn’t even feel comfortable leaving the apartment. Which is why he’s here with the shorter of the two boys.

It would’ve been hard to tell that the scruffy, blue-haired boy is the older of the two, but that’s probably part of his charm and it shows in how he addresses the network with a bright smile and a wave of his hand, as if he were a natural at this. ]


--Oh, I think we’re on! Hello, Lunatia! We’d like to introduce ourselves first of all: My name is Aoba Tsumugi, and this kind lad over here is my roommate! Ah, you should say hello too, Midorima-kun!

[ He gestures at the screen as smoothly as he could.

Midorima’s brows furrow before he’s even finished talking, looking mildly annoyed. What he’s annoyed about becomes apparent within only a few seconds as he doesn’t say hello and instead focuses in on correcting what he thinks was wrong with that sentence. ]


Who’s a “kind lad”? Focus on the task at hand.

[ Apparently, that’s all the greeting he’s bothering with. Tsumugi can only sigh a little before facing the screen again, smile still intact. ]

This is Midorima Shintarou, by the way. Seriously, kids these days… Um, but before I go off track, the reason why we’ve put this up is because we have one thing in common, and that is horoscopes. Luck, in general. Do you know there are apps here that tells you your daily fortune and what lucky item to bring around with you to ward off bad luck? Technology’s so amazing! Even though we’re from different worlds, it’s nice to know that there are other people who believe in them -- and that is why we are here today.

[ Midorima’s worried that Tsumugi’s going to go on for too long, so he chimes in with a much more direct demand of their audience over the network. ]

Respond with your astrological sign or birthday if you aren’t sure. We’re also looking to know what items are considered lucky in other worlds that may be incorporated into an apartment.

Y-You can just ask nicely them, you know! People wouldn’t know how to respond if you’re being demanding like that... [ why are tsunderes the way they are, man ] Anyway, it’d be very helpful for us to know everyone’s signs and birthdays to balance out of luck if it ever goes bad for a day so that we can stick with those people for a while… I’m a Leo and he’s a Cancer, if that helps.

Also! If anyone knows other forms of divination such as palmistry and tarot, that’d be greatly appreciated as well… I’m honestly more comfortable consulting with someone privately about my fortunes rather than rely on technology all the time, so let me know if it’s all right to approach you for regular sessions! I’ll pay with Chroma if I have to.


[ Midorima just decides to move on and end the video. He’s not going to give Tsumugi the chance to say goodbye. ]

We’re done.

[ And the video cuts out. ]

[ tsumugi will hop on right here, don't mind him ]

Ah, if I may interrupt -- Gemini is represented by twins and this reflects in their personality; they're adaptable, outgoing, and rather knowledgeable about a lot of things, but they rather flighty and indecisive because of their innate flexibility.

But don't fret! You don't have to completely change the way you are... you are born with your sign, after all.

[you had him in the first half not gonna lie]

wow
luckily i'm not any of those terrible things, so i think i'm doing just fine!


[Ha Ha Ha, yes, it's totally true... he's smart and friendly and great, thanks.]

since you know all about them too, can you do a different one for me? april 20!

I hope the two of you would ask the person involved that you'll be following them around for some time.

[ Because... that's creepy, otherwise. Tsumugi already has a 0.5 point in being a creeper, so. Don't add to that. ]

I don't know what astrological signs are— we don't have those where I'm from.

[ Probably. Who knows with RWBY, really. ]

My birthday is on February 14, though.

[ oh, it's her! the nice shopaholic lady! tsumugi can't help but beam brightly. ]

Sagittarius... I should've known from how forward you were when we first met! Thank you so much for the suit, by the way. It actually helped improve my luck during the mission a ton.

But actually, Midorima-kun and I don't have a lot so far. We only had my omamori and his lucky pencil to get through the day at first, so we're looking for more items that we can put together in this one room in our apartment! It'd be the luckiest flat ever. ♪

[ She's been trying to get the hang of this! Though this is curious to her. ]

This sounds a bit different than
what I know of back home
I'm an oracle back in my land, if it helps
I divine the future for my kind.


[ She sees no harm in sharing that, seeing as it's what she's known for. ]

[ OH NO, THAT VOICE ]

I-I wasn't! We were just asking everyone of their signs or birthdays, if they have them! It's completely harmless, honest!

Do you think I'm DEAF? You're just trying to make acquaintances who you'll cling to when you're feeling insecure with yourSELf, but you're only forming empty friendships based around something that is doomed to fail YOU.

What happens if something unlucky happens when you're around someone whose horoscope was supposedly favorABLE? Will you blame THEM? Will you assume it's your fault and become even more self-deprecatING?

Do you really think this can help with luck?

I'm happy for you, Tsumugi.

As for that, it may be something better left for us to discuss in private. I'm afraid I lost any touch I might have had before with it, so it may not be helpful, but we can meet whenever you'd like.

[Natsume is already irritated for a myriad of reasons, but now having his conversation intercepted by this new friend and roommate of Tsumugi's is the icing on the irritating cake.]

So you're just going to hang around someone who's slated to be LUCKY, like stalkERS.

And I know what horoscopes ARE, I'm a fortune-teller. But apparently a certain mopheaded senpai of mine doesn't trust my insight enough to even be bothered to ask me for input before he sets himself up to be scammed by anyone HERE.

[He grits his teeth before inhaling and reigning himself in a little.] I'll concede that you at least seem to understand that what one does with fortunes is ultimately in their own HANDS, which is more than most acknowlEDGE. I do pity you your choice in rooming arrangements howEVER.

Do the signs mean anything?

[ He's embarrassing. Wow. ]

And I suppose you have a point, but all I meant to say was you can't just start following somebody around just because they're lucky.

That idiot has never made an effective decision in his LIFE, so I hope you're prepared to do all of the WORK.

And in case that thing is listenING, I have a message for HIM~

Whether you mean well or not you shouldn't be so quick to neglect the ties you have. Your old habits will return and later when you reach out for aid you'll find yourself falling without a single thread to cling to. And in this place especially you'll need that security.

[And on that slightly ominous note he's disconnecting.]

[ SCARY EVEN IN TEXT. ]

The day of my birth?
I know it as we know it in my home world, but
I do not know it as it would be otherwise here.

Maybe you can help me figure it out?

W-Wait, I--

[ and he's gone. jeez. ]

Did he really just come in here to put a curse on me on the network of all places? Jeez... [ shaking his head, then turns to midorima with a sheepish smile on his face. ]

I'm sorry about him, Midorima-kun. Natsume-kun's actually my unitmate back home, and I didn't know he was here in Prismatica before I met and roomed up with you, so... [ bows down in apology. ack, there goes a bit of his luck. ]

Oh, definitely! Charm would help you net with more moonlacing partners, and being great with domesticism would make you a wonderful roommate! Anyone who'd have you as a partner would be very fortunate, if you ask me.

Oh, an oracle! That's so fascinating! How do you usually divine the future then, if I may ask?

The technology here can be too advanced for people who don't even use them in the first place, but I hope it hasn't been too complicated for you.
