[Today's temperatures are 88/73F (31/23C).]

[Or at least, the day will start out like any other, hot and sunny and dusty, but observant guests might notice that there are more clouds in the sky than usual today, lowering temperatures for a bit and providing intermittent shade and momentary relief.

By noon, though, these clouds will start thickening and gathering and darkening ominously, complete with a sudden rise in humidity, faint rumbles of thunder, and the heavy, oppressive feeling of a threatening thunderstorm.

It's a late monsoon, Death City. The downpour will start a bit after lunchtime, and unfortunately for everyone, the city is structured in a way that rain crashing down on the top levels of the city will cascade down to the lower levels through the streets, turning the entire place into a gigantic water slide. Anyone standing in the streets at the lower levels will most likely get swept out into the desert, so best stay indoors.

The rain won't last long, but the clouds will hang around for a bit.]

[There's a little shifting as the camera is set-up, viewing an empty couch with some pillows all over the place. Another switch of the camera, and then Nura seats herself on the couch. She casually crosses one leg over the other, placing her hands on her knees.]

I have to say that Death City isn't half bad once you look around and do some exploring. I mean...[She reaches up and moves a strand of white hair to behind her ear.] I'm still not quite used to this place, but I've stopped the worst of my resentment so far.

I just have to try new things and experience Death City culture.

[She then makes a face that one would make when encountering a dead creature, or mosquito humming around you.] But I doubt that I will ever want to try Graveyard flavored ice cream...ugh...

[It's early morning when Vergil first turns on his communicator. He's dressed for training and his Big Bag O' Blades® can be seen nearby, but more noticeable is that he is recording from a much larger room than those seen in Casualty Communal. He's determined to keep the recording short, though, so he skips the pleasantries and moves right into business.]

I'm currently seeking people who are trained in conventional martial art disciplines, and who may be willing to impart some of their knowledge. Internal or 'soft' styles are my own specialty, but I am looking to incorporate new concepts into my technique. I'm at the training grounds each day if anyone is interested.

This applies to anybody who's also looking for sparring. I train every morning if you're after a better work-out. I also possess a small number of better quality training weapons than what is available for public use.

[He ends the communication here, before sending some private messages.]

I've moved residence to Tartarus Terraces, First Floor, Room C, in the Red Light District so I'll be closer to work. It's also two-bedroom, in case you feel like somewhere more quiet to stay temporarily.]

[Filtered | Text | To: Date]

Please do not advertise this fact to my brother.

[Filtered | Voice | To: Mifune]

Could I speak with you a moment?

[Filtered | Text | To: Raven]

Are you done hiding?

(no subject)

[Ah, it's still raining and some of the streets seem to be flooding! Wait, who's recording this?

A little girl suddenly is on screen. She appears to be...moving, and sitting in a metal washtub.]

Row, row, row your boat!

[suddenly the image is drowned in water, but the image clears up once again, but now the screen had water droplets attached. She was using the communicator as an oar, it seems...]

Row, row, merrily, merrily....

[pauses the rowing for a moment]

Where is this place?

[yamagishi]

Um...to anyone who is new here, I am Fuuka Yamagishi. This might probably be a little bit late for me but I would like to welcome you to Death City. If there is anything you need, I will try my best.

[There is a long pause. She's finally taking Roy and Spirit's advice even if it is extremely awkward for her] I-I am looking for a meister. If there is anyone here who knows how to use an EMF meter...um....I-I'm afraid that I can't do much. I'm still not sure what my abilities are but I think I can tell where the kishin eggs are. Since...I was able to sense one nearby...a couple of weeks ago.

Also...for those who knew Junpei-kun or Chidori-san...I think they have returned back home. [And she's going to leave it like that since she isn't sure what else to say.2

[Yes: Roy is awake. Don't ask.]

For former 'students' of mine who used to train under me during the regular sessions: I'll be around later this morning, watching over members of the Watch.

[Wan smile.] Feel free to come and see me, though, if you need to.


Filter | The Watch;

I expect to see you at the training ground, if your patrol shifts allow it.


Filter | Naomi;

A word, if you will?



ooc: The Watch has a thread in the current training log! Hit it up here if you wish for shenanigans~ ♥ You're free to start your own threads, or to hit Mustang up there.

[Holding an umbrella and communicator in opposite hands, sighing.]

This weather.

Everything has turned such a depressing shade of gray, but one needn't --

[Blink. What is that sound? Sudden rush of water seen over the screen of the communicator as Clovis is yelling (screaming) somewhere in the background.

Guess who got washed out to the desert?

End feed.]

[The video flickers on. Her hair is all tousled, and there is a thoughtful pause.]

I don't think sleeping in the library is working out anymore.
