[ It's not often that Thomas goes for the video option, mostly because Thomas generally prefers not to be remembered as anything special and anyone looking at him will definitely see something special. Even dressed as he is in a hard hat, a t-shirt and jeans, dirty and a little sweaty, he more resembles a workman in a porn movie than an actual worker. But it's clear enough that he's actually working with the other folks renovating the space. ]

Hey, everybody. So... as you can see, I'm doing this thing. Soon enough, there'll be a Coiffure Cup right here in the City of Tomorrow and let me tell you right now, this officially makes it unacceptable for any of you to have a bad haircut. Seriously.

Anyway, [ he waves off all the nonsense from a moment ago and rubs at his nose where some of the dust is tickling ] as you can see, we're chugging along here which means, that party thing is definitely on. In fact, as long as everything goes according to plan here, we should be good for grand opening in a couple of weeks.

So consider yourselves all invited to said grand opening party, which is going to be in the hotel a block over from this place. Coordinates are included attached to this message, of course. Free food, free booze, free coffee, and coupons for free services at the salon.

[ private to Harry Osborn | TEXT ]

We're a few days out from painting if you've got some time to work out what we might want to put on the walls.

[Hi! here's a crooked camera angle of Clint, he sort of looks like he just woke up-- or just had an exciting brawl with a box of bandaids. Either way it's not a good look.

He scratches at at least a day's worth of scruff on his chin and reaches to straighten his CALL device out... it's still crooked but A for effort, right?]


So this lets me talk to all you guys in that crazy city, right? Cities... place, wold? I kinda got the run down -- and had a look around? Also pretty sure I almost had to fight a dragon but...

Um. Hi, I'm Clint and I'm the new guy?

Where do I get coffee around here?

Guess I should probably check in, huh?

I'm Tony and I'm still exploring this cool little device. Any recommendations on where to go/what to check out?

Hello!

[That's a good start, he thinks.]

I'm quite new here-- this is all quite fascinating. How many others are there here? What are your worlds like? I know those are rather broad questions, but I've never encountered people from other worlds before-- or at least, not friendly ones. Do you have magic where you're from? Is the technology anything like it is here? What--

[Breathe, Merlin. He cuts himself off with an apologetic little grin.]

Sorry. But it's exciting, isn't it! I'm in-- I think it's called Sorcery? But I'm going to be heading through all the bits of the city over the next few weeks-- or, at well, as much as I can, anyway, I'm manservant to a prince, I can't just disappear for ages, even he'd notice-- but when I'm here, anyway. Have any of you ever encountered devices like these? They're terribly convenient, I wish I could take it back home.

Oh! Sorry-- my name's Merlin!

You all saw that ReQuest, right? About the hotel?

You think it's some kind of gimmick? I mean... come on. People do that kind of thing all the time. Market their hotel as haunted, make up some weird stuff to make people want to visit it... Boom, lots of publicity if they can get a few people to go along with it.

Is anyone seriously thinking about going?

[Frankly, Dio's not in the mood. Not that he's exactly a paragon of patience most days, but right here and now he doesn't have much patience to offer anyone or anything. Someone else might try to look at this on the bright side, of course. He's clearly not dead here, and there's nothing that absolutely rules out the possibility of him returning to right where he left off. Maybe some other time, when he's had time to put a little more distance between himself and where he left off, he'll think of that. But for right now? Right now, the bitter taste of defeat still lingers on the back of his tongue. Compounding his sour mood even further on that little fact is that he can't do anything about it right now.]

[But Dio is a skilled liar, if nothing else, and he does still possess a modicum of control over his temper that he doesn't throw a tantrum. To do so now would be far, far too costly now that he's found himself thrust into an unfamiliar situation. And he refuses to be caught off-guard right here and now, which means figuring out this...device. There really isn't anything exactly comparable in his world, but Dio's not an idiot. He can figure it out with little trial and error.]


Interesting. [He looks and sounds more pleased than he actually feels when the video feed begins, but it's unlikely anyone would be able to really question how genuine it is.] The technology here is impressive. In my day, there weren't many who would believe something like this is possible. I can only guess as to how clever the minds who dreamed this device in reality truly were and I'm sure this will prove useful moving forward.

[His smile increases only by a fraction, but it carries with it an enormous amount of warmth. Dio is here to play nice.]

For all of us.

[For now.]

[Of all the things that have happened to Giorno Giovanna in his young life — well. This isn't not weird, but it's also not the weirdest. He's still in his own body and no parts of his face are being sliced off, so honestly it's okay. That, and the fact that he's done a fair amount of recon already, plus the fact that anyone who comes after him is in for a nasty surprise, is what makes him look so aggressively serene when he addresses the network.]

[That, plus he just always looks like the offspring of Michelangelo's collected works and Italian fashion week. If he lays on the accent a little thick, it's probably not for nefarious reasons (but it might be) (at least a little nefarious).]


Ah, buonasera, hello everyone! I'm sure you are all very busy on a Friday night, but I wanted to at least say hello as a new arrival. I'm still trying to get a feel for everything at the moment [this is not true] but so far this place seems very . . .

[Say something Nice.]

Well-organized? [Lord.]

Mm, you can always reach me here, of course; I'm making my way through all of the different parts of the city, so if anyone needs anything, I'm happy to help! And then before I go, I wanted to ask: what are your favorite things about the parts of the city you are in? Or least favorite, I suppose, but let's at least start positively, please.

So the transport button definitely works. Holy crap. Did I hit the jackpot or what?

Looks like there's been activity on this thing, too. Are there actually other people out there?
[It occurs to him suddenly: did Peter get one of these, too? He bristles at the thought and decides to pursue answers subtly. For once.] Actually, better question: what determines who gets one of these?

Good looks, right? ;)

Okay, but seriously. If you've got some answers, humor me, will you? I'm gonna go exploring.
