[Yeah, were you expecting a new arrival? Yes? No? Maybe? Well, whatever the case, here is now a video feed playing on your screens. It is incredibly shaky and three quarters of the screen is covered with something purple, but it is a video feed nevertheless. Clearly, the recorder making this is not adept at handling the D-Terminal, or maybe its something else entirely.

From the first line, its clear that it is indeed something else entirely.] C'mon, you should at least say hello!

--I'm not sure if that's a good idea.

[The second voice is very male-sounding, although quiet and trying his best to be as polite as possible even though there is no real need to be.

From near the mic there is a huff, presumably from the first speaker.] How are you gonna talk to anybody if you won't even say hello?

( More talkings and finally, a proper introduction. )

[Believe it or not, it's not Duo who appears on the screen. Nope, it's a Solarmon and he looks a little confused and worried.]

I probably wouldn't ask this, but I'm completely at a loss.

[Somehow, the screen is shifted to focus on a closed bedroom door. The Solarmon's voice pipes back up.]

How do you make your Chosen come out when they've locked themselves in their room?

[Yup, that's the post. Duo has locked himself in his room and won't come out.]


[[OOC EDIT since I should have included this before: Shiki and Masaru are his roommates, so actions are totally okay!]]

[A Tentomon buzzes in the background up behind and down off the frame on a certain purple-haired, white-horned young woman - she's smiling, bats her eyes, speaks with a brightness and drawl, but it's a touch quick.]

Ah - Rarity, all, hello~o. I don't suppose anypony missed me...! [Strictly casual.] Tentomon and I are Chosen, and. ...Well! It appears I've been - away, for a while, or so Tentomon says! Dear do remind me, what month might it be?

December.

R~right... [Giggle - not upset, but not actually happy, either.] It wa~as June here, last I was aware! And it does figure, I am not - dressed for winter, but~! ...That's hardly a matter of importance... First of all! Twilight, Fluttershy, darlings - here I am! Do give me a call as soon as you can! I must know if you're all right and we have simply got to catch up, if you are! What say you to a~ girl's day? Not to rush things of course, but, I - expect one's in order.

And - also. My partner and I are apparently now staying in~n... F1, 009, I believe! I welcome you to give us a call, too; we cannot wait to get to know you.

Now... ta-ta, for now~! [Last flash of a smile and a bobbed nod at the camera before she ends the recording.]

[The screen flickers before i reveals a pair of purple eyes right in the screen. They pull back to reveal a purple-haired girl with wings and a horn, who keeps looking at the screen from different angles. She appears to be thinking before a voice off-screen speaks up.]

Twilight... I think that you've turned it on.

Oh... [Rubs her head sheepishly] Well then... hello everypo... I-I mean everyone. My name is Twilight Sparkle, I'm a friend of Fluttershy's. She said that I had been here before, but I'm afraid that I have no memory of my time here. But if I knew anyone from that time, please tell me, I would like to be able to get re-acquainted with you.

Also, umm... if anyone has seen a gold crown with a pink gem that looks like a six-pointed star in the center, could you please tell me? I would really appreciate it. Thank you.

[She pushes a button... and nothing happened. She look confused and pressed a few more. Eventually she found the right button as the screen blanked out.]

[There's static on the screen for a moment before it clears, and Fluttershy waves a bit shyly into the camera.]

H...H-Hello everyone, um...I...hope you're all doing well.

S-So I...I've learned a little about...Christmas, which is...coming up, right? A-And it's actually very similar to a holiday we celebrate in Equestria...wh-where I'm from. S-So I...I-I was thinking that I'd...like to give gifts to people. I-I mean if...if that's all right...

I have...some ideas for what to give people, b-but, um...i-if you wouldn't mind, could you...maybe let me know what you'd like as a gift? I...can't really promise much, but I'm...pretty good at knitting...I think...

S-So if...everyone could let me know what you'd like...I'll do my best to make it. E-Even...if you don't celebrate Christmas...or Hearth's Warming Eve like I do...I'd still like to give you something...if that's okay...

[She hesitates for a moment before turning the D-Terminal off.]
