[Today's temperatures will be 67/42F (19/5C). Not as bad as yesterday, huh?

[Looks like the battle is over for now...I hope you guys are alright. I think we all need a nice nap, don't you think? What better way to do so than by reading the newspaper? BORING, ISN'T IT? But you can find a copy in the lobby of your apartment complexes if you looked...

Today's article:

Death City Times

KISHIN EGGS ATTACK CITIES, CASUALTIES AT 689.

Death City, Moscow, New York, Brighton and Paris suffered kishin egg attacks yesterday morning, amounting to a total of 689 civilian casualties. Reports say that just before midnight, the scouts in the various city perimeters noticed large groups of kishin egg flocking toward the cities. Emergency alerts were raised and evacuation procedures were swiftly carried out.

Death City, home to the headquarters of Shibusen, emerged relatively unscathed from this unprecedented event with casualties only amounting to 8 civilian-volunteers and a still-unknown number of Shibusen technicians. New York suffered the most during the attack with 435 civilians killed and property damage estimated at 450M$D. Fights are still ongoing in New York; it is reported that the North American Deathscythe and company have joined the fray since the state of emergency was lifted from Death City. Moscow, Brighton and Paris were able to fend off the attack with casualty numbers of 69, 102, and 75 respectively, and moderate property damage.

Shibusen has released a public alert for attacks in other areas and countries. The resounding success of the Death City defense is attributed to the high numbers of meisters and weapons in the city -- about three-fourths of which are the acclaimed guests from other worlds -- and the early warning they received from their operatives.

PS. Don’t forget to turn in your summaries in the mission thread, by the way!

[it's super early in the morning, the sun not even up yet... and here's Masaru, wide awake and somewhere with pounding music. After the attacks he slept too much it seems, and needed to get out...]

Yo! Armstrong! Just letting you know not to wait up, I'm seeing some friends!

[Said friends come on screen with coos of "Masaru~"... and are in fact two attractive lightly dressed women with bunny ears, one of each side and seeming to be trying to squish the kid's head with their breasts. Don't ask how he got in the strip club at his age... just don't.]

O-oi! Stop that I can't breathe- Bunny and Fluffy said they're gonna treat me to breakfast once they get off work, want me to bring you back something?

[ if it wasn't one thing, it was another. this was, at once, ridiculous and a step away from alarming. no, check that. it was alarming, and downright worrying, and hell if he was over-reacting, he wasn't going to stand by and twiddle his thumbs. ]

Beyond those names recently listed on the network, what others are suspected to have left? Missing? Unaccounted for?

[It's over. The battle with the kishin eggs is finished. Colette is tired, exhausted and numb. Her voice, when she turns on the device is soft. It's clear she's trying to put on a brave front. Shishito had not had much in the way of belongings, but she could tell. He was gone. She could only hope she had helped him, at least a little, during his time in Death City. She would miss him.]

....For those who knew him, my partner Shishito.....is back home.

It's always quiet after a storm. Which is good, I suppose, to give people a chance to hold themselves together and figure out how to fix things.

I hope none of the people I've met thus far has died, and if they're gone, they've only been sent home.

...though from what I've gathered, that might actually not be such a good thing for some?

Ah, I'm rambling again.

☇ SIXTEENTH ROAR || 17TH NOVEMBER 2009 || ACCIDENTAL VOICE

[getyourgunson.livejournal.com]

[If Date ever knows that the nest few minutes of his life was being recorded in voice, he would have thought twice about saying all of this. But as it is, he doesn't know he's being recorded now so everyone can hear the sheer awkward coming from the usually composed warlord.]

--so like, well... what I want to say is that... you... [Long awkward pause goes here. A very long and awkward one.] ...damnit, this isn't going to work either. Tch.

[Some shuffling goes here as Date moves about, hoping that being able to walk a bit at the area of the clinic he's in would help him think. He's stuck here for the day, and so being stuck has just started to make him think about certain issues, which is sort of resulting in all of this... not that Date will ever just say what said issue is about though, its kind of complicated except not really, not this time. Regardless, its clear that he's troubled.]

This is stupid. [Frustrated noise here now.] Why am I even taking such a long time to get around this? It's not as if its anything hard... I just need to walk up to him, and just tell him that I-- [Pause here, again.]

[And eventually, there is the sound of Date sitting down again and sounding visibly irritated at his next words.] Shit, this isn't working. [Why is this so hard.]

OK, I FEEL LIKE A CHOLERBEAR HAS BEEN USING MY HEAD AND STOMACH AS A PUNCHING BAG FOR THE LAST DAY OR SO, SO I'M GOING TO KEEP THIS MEMO SHORT.

BREW SENT AMPORA BACK TO THE VEIL.

AND YES, I'M FUCKING SURE, I JUST WENT TO HIS HIVE. HIS SHIT'S TOTALLY MISSING, AND HE DIDN'T EVEN LEAVE A BIG SAD NOTE WITH LYRICS TO SONGS NOBODY'S EVER HEARD OF. I ACCOUNTED FOR THE REST OF YOU TROLLS YESTERDAY, SO UNLESS SOMEBODY LEFT SHIBUSEN OR DID SOME OTHER MONUMENTALLY IDIOTIC FUCKING THING DURING THE ATTACK, THERE ARE STILL ELEVEN OF US HERE.

I GUESS THAT'S IT.

BRAVE AMAZING LEADER OUT.
