to everyone.
Nobody here plays water glasses, right? [The look on Maya's face should tell you that this in, in fact, a Very Serious Question.] If you do, I kind of need your help. I can pay you? A little bit?

[Maya taps her lip, like she's thinking.] I would also appreciate your help if you happen to play keys or drums. [Snapping her fingers, Maya grins.] Oh! Or xylophone piano. Or bass.

Actually, if you play any kind of instrument, even if it's the kazoo, and you wouldn't mind helping me with something super important then I would super appreciate it if you responded.

[ The video flips on, Roze's face coming into view at an odd angle, mostly her chin visible more than anything. There's a lot of rustling and scraping as she apparently army crawls across the floor of her bedroom, light pouring over her face, green eyes large and smile broad. ]

Guys. Guys, wait til you see this...

HEY! HEY EVERYONE!

*Dante's sitting in his bed, Kid the Coronamon curled up in his lap and a Salamon laying on top of his head. Kid is clinging to Dante's waist, but Dante himself seems unusually downcast.*

Look...I don't make a habit of doin' this often, but I owe an apology for the way I've been actin'. I was a Grade A shithead and I'm sorry for the trouble I ended up causin'.

[It's been a while since Sakuyamon hijacked the network, and the background is the same as usual - if darker, because it's night. However, the picture seems lower quality than Sakuyamon's previous posts and the audio seems to have a slight amount of static.]

Chosen Children, we have not located Lotusmon yet, but I have something else to tell you. We have discovered something called "ARCLoner" that we are looking into. We know it to be important, but have no information on why.

[Sakuyamon looks very tired, suddenly.] I cannot talk further. Goodbye.

Looks like this place is doing something really annoying. I'm testing it out at large. Who here can read this? If we can't all communicate this is going to be a real pain.

[It's written in English, and following that, a feed comes up...and it's not Terra talking. Instead, it's Gotsumon. Strangely, everyone should find they can understand the little guy.]

Testing, um. Testing! Can you hear me? Terra can understand other Digimon, but not some of the other people. Can everyone understand me? Is that right?

Yeah, that's fine.

[ Roze's screen flips on, her ecstatic face filling the screen because if she isn't close, the rush of snow would obscure her from view. ]

ITS SNOWING!

LADY ROZE! I INSIST YOU COME BACK INSIDE!

SHADDAP!

[ Never had anyone heard her shriek in such young and girlish excitement. ]

I'M FREEZING MY TITS OFF BUT ITS SNOW!

LADY ROZE!

SHADDAP.

Oh my god I'm so excited! I'M SO HAPPY! Yesterday was horrible. TODAY IS MAGICAL! I love the snow. Jesus fucking Christ this is actually really cold... [ She looks off to the side, squinting against the wind, cheeks already ruddy from the wind and ice whipping across pale skin. ]

Oh for goodness sake. LADY ROZE!

Musashi, I will kill you.

[ When she looks back at the terminal her lashes are crusted with snowflakes. ]

I'm gonna go get a cute coat and some tights! Oh, but...okay! I'm gonna hit the cafeteria and rustle up them Damemon!

People.

PEOPLE!

Go outside and play if you love the snow. But I'm coming around door to door with delicious cold-weather treats.

Lemme know if you need any warmin' up. [ She chimes with a grin and brow waggle. ]

I LOVE YOU GUYS!

*click*

( She was true to her word... )

Are you sure you should be doing this Blackarachnia? Wouldn't it be nicer to introduce yourself before just showing up and walking in?

[The video feed shows the hallway to the newbie apartments and at the moment, a certain she-spider's partner digimon giving her partner a look that clearly said 'This is a bad idea'. Which, Blackarachnia is pointedly ignoring.]

What fun would that be.

[The image quickly turns to a door to apartment 007.]

This is floor three right?

Yep.

[The door opens and she glances around before making herself at home on a couch. Now it was just waiting for the roommates to appear so she can see who she's dealing with. Hopefully they won't make her wish she had her gun still.]

*The first thing people might notice about Dante's voice, aside from the fact that he never just uses voice, is that he sounds tired. He's trying not to sound too bad so people won't worry, but he can't keep the exhaustion out of his voice.*

Well, that sucked.

*Understatement there, Dante.*

In case ya missed it, I'm back. Sorry I worried ya, never thought I'd be gone that long. But I see the sun's back! The city's kind of a wreck, but it doesn't look like anything we can't rebuild.

So. I think survivin' that calls for a celebration. Or at least an excuse to kick back, stuff our faces and pretend we didn't just go through one form of hell or another. How about we have us a get together this Wednesday, in the cafeteria? I'll bring music, booze and some snacks, but otherwise bring whatever the hell you want.
