_{[ The feed clicks on and shows a kid appearing no older than 13 seated back in a chair, curled knuckles against his face. His eyes look tired and expression rather thin. He's wearing a uniform of some sort, though pieces of it look tattered or stained. One of his legs bounces in his seat (aren't his shorts cute?) but after a moment of mulling over what to say, he leans forward, hands folding together neatly. ]}

I already lack faith in gathering information from anyone here, and yet, here I am with inquiries. Serious responses only.

_{[ What could this boy possibly be asking for?? Where is the best place to get ice cream? Hardly so. ]}

Has anyone has ever even attempted hacking into any confidential files that could be in the government's system that operates here? Alternatively, if anyone has ever attempted to assassinate the Queen?

_{[ Oh.. what.. ]}

If not, is there any place on this goddamn planet that serves coffee? Decent coffee. Every place here is a shit hole.

_{[ That's it. No thanks for your time or anything. ]}

[ why is he even asking this?

he misses rita, who'd understand not getting involved. (would she, though? they've both gotten involved a lot lately - but he's not going to get involved in this.) ]

I assume you all got the same message I did. I have a question: if you're thinking of going, of investigating

Why?

... Hypothetically speaking, if someone were to look into finding somewhere to y'know. Spar. Train. Keep the rust off their fighting skills in case we get something worse than a sewer full of giant vines trying to swat us like flies for the hell of it. That kind of thing. Is there anywhere around here that would fit that kind of criteria?

What're the chances of half of those Knights they've got posted around here sticking their noses where they aren't wanted? Most of the Knightly types I've come across aren't the type to just nod and let a bunch of people waving weapons around get on with their day without throwing a tantrum.

And if that's the case and the chances are high... whereabouts here are they least likely to go snooping?

Or take the longest to get to. I'm not picky.

[ Hypothetically speaking, of course. ]

_{[As soon as the video starts, Demyx is looking down at the camera while fiddling with something behind it.]}

You got it? Just hold onto it like this - both hands, and don't drop it! Once we're done I'll get you some more glow sticks, okay?

_{[For a moment a pointed silver "hand" covers the lens, prompting Demyx to gently re-adjust whatever it is. He disappears from view once everything seems normal, and there's some rustling in the background before Demyx bounds back into frame with a small remote and a wild grin.]}

Okay! You guys've seen those little robots they got out in the street, right? Turns out they've got smaller ones that're for your rooms and stuff so I may have gone out to get one like... two nights ago, along with some other things. Now you're probably thinking that's pretty cool - not having to do a crazy amount of cleaning, right? Well, they get way cooler! Hang on--

_{[He pushes a button on the remote, and inside his apartment music starts to play in the distance.

It slowly starts to get closer and louder in turn, and whatever is manning the communicator starts to get a little wobbly. Almost as if it's... dancing. And eventually a flat, circular vacuum scoots into view with a set of speakers attached to it, prompting a laugh from Demyx.]}

Ta-da~♪ Presenting the one and only DJ Roomba!

_{[It bumps into a corner, turns, and after a couple seconds it starts to creep towards the camera, which gets the attention of the 'camera man'. After it gets close enough, the communicator drops, and a strange silver creature twists and zooms out of view as Demyx scrambles to pick up the dropped device. Whatever that was, it sure did get spooked!]}

I guess he didn't like the song or something, but uh... Anyway! I wanna load this baby up with other stuff, so gimme some really good ones!

As I believe we should all be more capable of thinking clearly now, I'd like to pose a couple of questions that have been on my mind for a while.

First is the matter of language barriers - or rather, the complete lack of them. Quite aside from meeting an American who admitted to no knowledge of Japanese (and my English certainly isn't good enough to fill in the gaps), I've had perfectly comprehensible conversations with people who aren't from Earth at all. Is it more likely that something about this world is translating for us on an individual basis, or somehow taught us all a common language without us noticing? Either way, can the translation effect be chalked up to Chroma, or is something else at play?

My second question circles back to Chroma itself, building off its local importance as both currency and energy source. We've been told that the locals see Chroma as the solution to their clean-energy woes (if only breaking oil dependency were this simple...). Our hosts believe that higher rates of Chroma generation will permit faster development of their technological capabilities, possibly including a means to return us to our worlds of origin.

How, exactly, do they intend to sustain that technological capability if all of us return to our homes?

I'll grant that that's a rather large assumption; there's a very real chance that this world is preferable to where some of us came from. However, a substantial majority of us refusing to stay here, once the means is in place, could still decimate Chroma production to the point where little to nothing that we help them make can be powered. That could potentially impact the ability to return everyone who wants to leave. If nothing else, it's something those of us who intend to get hands-on with the local technology should keep in mind.

[ What does one do after the Cordis cycle, after a tiring few days? Stay in bed and... post because she has nothing better to do. She will be judging everyone. ]

Out of curiosity, how many of you are looking for moonlacing partners? I mean, you could probably just ask a friend or something, but for the more available, what do you have to offer that makes you stand out from the others who are looking for partners?

Show a picture of yourself and what you're looking for. I'll provide a sample.

[So you know, you're getting a video towards the end of Cordis cycle of... oh, it's a bunch of like, hand creams and body wash and shampoos and candles and stuff. There are a whole lot of them all arranged nicely on a counter? And there are a lot of different flavors... mostly floral, but some fruity and some woodsy and whatnot.

...the speaker is not onscreen, because why should he be. he is not the star of this show.]

I have found something wonderful, my friends. It's like Wan Shi Tong's library in the desert, except for good scents and hair care products. This-[he kind of pans over his haul]-is only a mere sampling of the offerings Moonlight Path and Body Works had for sale, and yet it's such a variety! It's not even that expensive! The stuff back home is expensive and there isn't quite as much variety! But it all smells fantastic. I just...

[CONTENTED SIGH.........]

I need more. I spent a lot of money, but I want to buy one of each product. This is such a fantastic vacation that I did not actually sign up for, but maybe it is a vacation I needed. This... is a good time I'm having here.

[oh no, this is stupid. at least he's having a good time and won't regret posting this whenever cordis is over. right? right.]

[The video starts shaky before Engineer pulls away and into focus. He stands up. and steps away. The video is set on a desk watching a table from across, with a cloth covering something roughly two feet tall. The walls are covered pinned-up blueprints. Some light from the blood red Sanguis moon just barely trickles out of the blinds in the corner. There's enough "normal" light in the room that it doesn't look like a complete horror show, at least.

Engie steps to the side. He's wearing a plain shirt with his overalls, both already dirty from grease and motor oil. He looks to his personal device's camera with a grin.]

I was thinkin' of using this thing as a video log for personal notes. But I figure this is worth sharin'.

[If you've never heard or met Engineer before, this is an extremely Texan accent. He lifts up the cloth. It's!!! A box. A tool bx. Not that interesting, until Engie hits a button behind the box, and suddenly it pops open and starts folding in on itself, transforming into something. It doesn't take long. It's a gun. A tiny, mounted gun. It beeps to life, and the top starts moving, swiveling and surveying back and forth. Engineer barks out a big, excited laugh, followed by a Very Big Yeehaw.]

Saddle my back and call me a horse!

[He claps the top of the sentry gun, looking damn pleased with himself, and looks back to the camera.]

This here's a tripod-mounted little ol' number I designed back home. S'posed to be a miniature version of the sentries I usually work with, but it builds faster and makes a helluva lot of trouble. Cute little thing, ain't it? [He chuckles.] I've been wantin' to rebuild some've my old kit back home. And damn if it didn't work! Made some upgrades, too - hell, it doesn't even need bullets anymore! It's energy now!

[Engie sits down on a stool nearby. He rubs as a shoulder as he watches his sentry turn back and forth. His excitement finally settles a little, and he sighs, contended.]

Heh. Don't know why the hell I didn't think of that when me 'n the boys got all those space guns back home. This planet's technology could talk a dog off a meat wagon.

So. I'm workin' on rebuildin' my big sentries. Got a LOT of other ideas, too... but not nearly enough supplies yet. Reckon I gotta get a real job around here. [He looks back to the camera.] Thinkin' Level 2 might want a mechanical engineer. Hell, maybe that Buwan's Stop place needs someone. Anybody got suggestions, feel free to throw 'em my way.

[Fun fact: You might notice his hands. Besides the fact one's a robotic prosthetic, the knuckles of his real hand are bruised to hell. Just barely, a corner of a deep bruise bleeds out from his left eye, mostly covered by his goggles.

Because speaking of Buwan, anyone with an ear to the ground might have heard about a certain Moonblessed with a metal fist and a bad temper in the fight arena. Bad enough that some Prismal fighters had to pull him aside and explain Sanguis to him.]

telephoning

Saw talk about us getting sent back to where we came from.

[...Not that she doesn't understand why, 'cause, well... hey. Everyone's life got kind of interrupted by being pulled here, right? Plenty of folks probably left a shitload behind. But... pff, well. This is more just. Biting the bullet and getting her own thoughts out 'cause she can.]

I got reminded of where I came from by what happened with the plants. What it reminded me of got a lot worse, though. I don't know how much of a universal constant this is, but I was 3 or 4 when the Raccoon City incident happened on Earth. Plus I've been trying to move on from some things a long time.

I wonder how alone I am saying I wouldn't shed a tear if I couldn't go back.

[...Well, that's some... kinda presumptive phrasing, there, Zoe...?

...But, well. Suffice to say...

...She's just tryin'a speak her head, out there. Just type it out, and collapse onto her forearm as she watches text just... tick across the screen...!]

[At precisely 12:00 PM down to the second, the video feed opens on a shot of a table, where sit two people:Hakuno Kishinami and Yaha-kui zaShunina. Behind them, a whiteboard reads: “Anisotropy: An Introduction”.]

I am aware that it is considered customary to initiate a presentation with an introduction of the speakers involved. I am Yaha-kui zaShunina.

And I’m Hakuno Kishinami. [She gives a small wave and a faint smile.] I’m here to help break down what Yaha-kui wants to explain to everyone.

As a basis for this explanation, I will call this world that exists in three dimensional space ‘the Universe.’ I originate from a space outside of this Universe known as Novo. It possesses a greater number of spacial dimensions than the Universe, and in this language, it would translate to ‘Anisotropic.’ I will now present a demonstration.

[One of Yaha-kui zaShunina’s arms emerges from beneath his cloak and rests upon the table… before everything from the elbow-down vanishes from sight--swirling, golden fractals dancing over the point of severance rather than exposed muscle and bone. A few feet away, the detached segment of arm reappears to grasp a water bottle before vanishing once again, only to return to its place connected to zaShunina’s body, water bottle still in hand.]

It’s a bit like taking a short cut, through those extra dimensions!

[zaShunina turns to look at Hakuno, and though he opens his mouth to correct her translation, he just as quickly closes it again to return his attention to the camera, nodding. What’s important here is the accessibility of the explanation to as many people as possible. Inaccuracies can be corrected later.]

The anisotropic exists adjacent to every point within the universe.

Once one has a perception of the anisotropic, it becomes possible to utilize these additional dimensions. The purpose for this explanation is to present the possibility for Prismatica to employ anisotropy in its advancement.

For the record, though, the technology that’s needed in order for non-Novo… residents? Novans? [ She frowns, mulling it over for a moment, before shaking her head.] We’ll work on the phrasing. That aside, the technology used to help people who aren’t natives of Yaha-kui’s world do things like this wasn’t brought over at arrival. This is mostly theoretical explanations, as well as a foundation for if or when that technology can be recreated.

We will designate this span of time to respond to inquiries.

(Questions will be answered either by Hakuno, zaShunina, or both.)

Not to add to the increasing load but I've another round of questions for everyone.

First of all, I'm sure everyone's been acquainted with the currency here. Chroma 🌑️ and Demichroma️ 🌓️. The people here seem very fond of the moon! Good taste (everywhere, honestly, LOVE the neon look 💙)

Who here has really gone through this thing? The bracelet they've given us, I mean. It's rather robust, I'm a big fan personally and might be working on a few things already. 🤫

Right - The point! Sorry. What I'm getting to is how many of you have been checking your banks?
Follow up: Rough estimate, how much do you have? Don't share the number, that's terrible security, dear God I'm leveling with you as a cybersecurity expert all I need is whether it's single, double, or triple digits
2nd follow up: Have any of you been doing any kind of work?
3rd, final follow up: Have you noticed when/where your balance goes up?

I'll go 1st: Triple #, no work, I may have a... few working theories

[ After playing around with the device for a bit, now that they finally have time to settle in after the vine madness, Fish has the thing mounted nicely at an angle high enough to give the network a nice view of their head to the top of their shoulders—much like a beauty blogger really. They’ve got an eye for beauty and they put it to use here. They have a bare face at the moment, but it’s still a pretty face with smooth purple skin that fades to lilac on their face, their throat, and the front of their chest. ]

I suppose if everyone is using this thing to ask questions, I might as well ask one of my own.

[ They take a small brush loaded with sea green pigment and draw it over each of their eyelids as a thick eyeliner with practiced, precise movements. ]

Cosmetics and clothing. Has anyone gone shopping recently? I’ve noticed this place is just far too different from the one I know. So I think I could use some guidance. Or some company. Company preferable.

[ They chuckle to the camera and shimmy their shoulders, like a practiced coquettish performer. They pop open a small glass jar of deep purple pigment and another brush. And they quickly fill in their lips with the same neatness as their eyes. ]

There is a lot I want to acquire if I’ll be staying here for a while. So, let me know if you’d like to go shopping.

Oh, by the way. In case we haven’t met... you can call me “Fish”.

[ They wink. ]

[Temple’s really nervous about posting this. But Taako said that, if Temple wants to keep hanging around him, he has to learn to fight. Sooooo...]

I’m wondering... is there anyone around here who would be willing to teach me how to fight?

I know some of the basics but not much and I’m not very good at it. But I want to get better.

So next time the vines come or some other danger appears, I can help more. And save more people.

[He signs the post, at the end, with:]

Temple, of the Blues and Reds

[And then he waits and hopes that someone will respond to him.]
