kaisouWHO: Everyone!
WHERE: Libra App
WHEN: June 13th
WHAT: Zodiac Network Post
WARNINGS: None!
[We've reached the second half of June. By now, many people have noticed things important to them have gone missing if they discarded the invitation they got at the start of the month. Everyone's devices will emit a soothing wind chime sound as a new Zodiac post appears. The chime will sound even if you have your phone turned off or on silent, and will not stop until you read their message and comment to it.]
[With no announcements of comings and goings, the post will continue.... not normally, instead providing a screencap from a notes app first in response to the previous zodiac post:]
Nephrite, Joshua, Blackwargreymon, Anby and Jane have joined the app. Say hi everyone!
[NOW the post will continue as normal]
Hello. Thank you for using the Libra App.
Hey so about your stuff going missing? We got sent a ransom note about it. I'm supposed post it, so here:
If you threw out the invite, it's this weekend. It's going to be in a Spirit Realm called Golbin City, we'll let you know when the gate opens. Sounds like outfits will be offered, but that means trusting a guy called the Goblin King to dress you.
Go or don't go, not really my problem if you get your stuff back or not. I'm just a messenger who is clocking out now.
Bye.

[Users will have the option to choose their own display names and user pics if they haven't already. If nothing is chosen, the app will use their real name and a quick photo taken of them from their camera's phone. Like always, there'll be no responses from Zodiac. The event log will go up this weekend, so feel free to have your characters make plans and talk about that until then! ]

To The Residents of Kaisou,
Well, it seems that my invitations reached everyone, though not everyone kept them. I'm sure by now you've realized what happens if you "lost" or destroyed them. Don't worry. Merely come to the ball I so graciously invited you to, and all will be returned.
Jareth, the Goblin King

Jun. 10th, 2025 07:28 pmquit_ur_kiniching posting in kaisouWHO: Kinich and you!
WHERE: Gemini Network
WHEN: Not long after the Black Order's mission
WHAT: Kinich has made the business decision to procure some plant seeds from Hyrule's floating islands... for a price. In plain speak: Kinich has wares if you have coin.
WARNINGS: None, but will update if there are any!
[Kinich has currently found himself a safe spot on the floating islands to make this post. He smells a good way to make money from POKEGO, but it's best to see if anyone else can bite.]
While on a mission in Hyrule, there's been a discovery involving a plant that has a peculiar property. On the floating islands is a flower that the stewards have called a "sundelion."
[He pans the camera over to show the flower just so that everyone can see that it's legit.]
These sundelions don't do anything in their raw state, but by cooking them we've discovered that they can heal a local corruption that drains away a person's life. They aren't a rare flower, but there is a level of danger in procuring them. Not just because they're found here on these floating islands. There are many hostile constructs up here as well.
If anyone would like for me to procure them any sundelions, sundelion seeds, or machine components, drop me a line. I don't work for free, but I'm willing to negotiate a fair price.

WARNINGS: Violence, mild horror LoZ monster, and Shadow Ganon

1: Out of place and time
Jun. 8th, 2025 12:25 pmspire_heart posting in kaisouWHO: Blackwargreymon and whatever poor souls decide to deal with him
WHERE: Lake Hylia (Hyrule stable gate) and later Libra
WHEN: now
WHAT: a digital dragon has a weird day
WARNINGS: possible mild existential crisis stuff in the first bit
[Lake Hylia]
[To an outside viewer who happened to be in the vicinity of Lake Hylia and happened to glance upward at the right time, they'd catch the glint of sunlight off something metal as falls from somewhere high above, making a huge splash as it hits the water somewhere not terribly far from shore.
To the armor-clad Digimon who was brought back to consciousness by hitting the water, this is might tie for the weirdest circumstances he's ever woken up in. For starters, he certainly hadn't been anywhere near a lake last he remembered. That initial feeling of dull confusion turns to alarm as he attempts to simply fly himself to the surface and back into the air and finds the ability simply... gone. He only finds himself more alarmed in the process of swimming himself to shore, feeling weaker than he ever had before and recognizing absolutely none of his surroundings from the Digital World or his brief forays into the Human World.
By the time he drags himself onto the beach, Blackwargreymon feels (and honestly looks) half ready to bite the first person he comes across from all the worrying he's done. He's sure he won't since he needs information and the thought that it would disappoint Agumon is viscerally upsetting on multiple levels at the moment, but... He's very wet and having an emotional rollercoaster of a day.]
----
[VIDEO | UN: Blackwargreymon]
[Later, once Blackwargreymon's out into the human world that not only is an entirely different one than the one he knows but also has the audacity to be in the entirely opposite season than the one he'd left, the day only gets weirder when he's handed a little glass and metal rectangle that he's assured is a "smart phone" and sent on his way.
The better part of an hour of muddling through the instructions later and the network is treated to the sight of a dragon-like being in full armor squinting at the camera with the suspicion of someone who hasn't looked at a piece of technology since just after the Y2K scare.]
...I'm going to assume this thing is working. Hi. I'm new to this world, and the person in a suit with dead eyes told me this is where I should ask questions. So, first question: Has anyone here heard of Digimon before?
[A pause.]
...Second, unrelated question: Why are these devices called "smart phones" when they look nothing like phones?

UN: Anby | Voice
Jun. 8th, 2025 07:06 amburgersplease posting in kaisouWHO: Anby Demara
WHERE: Zodiac Network
WHEN: June 8th
WHAT: Network Voice Post
WARNINGS: Spoilers for the live action Lilo & Stitch
[The voice recording contains a voice of a woman whose tone is quiet and near emotionless.]
Is it recording? Good.
This is Anby Demara, a Guardian of the Black Order. I have downloaded the app required per the mission perimeters of the Kaisou Team, and will use it to record my personal log in hopes of remaining transparent under the new leadership.
[-- yeah she's clearly misunderstood the purpose of the Libra app, but the voice recording keeps going]
The date is June 8th, 2025. It has been one week since I have arrived in Kaisou, [a passing truck honks, making the state name inaudible]. Since then, I have prioritized finalizing my living arrangements and familiarizing myself with the city.
As of recording, I have located 1 movie theater and 3 burger joints in my immediate. The movie theater offers a decent matinee price, though the film I watched was rather disappointing. It was a live action remake of the animated classic Lilo & Stitch. The film was more sanitized than the original one, and it ended with Nami giving Lilo up to the state. I am unsure how to feel about that change to the story, but I don't think I liked it.
I should try to look into other ways to find movies, as even with the matinee deal, seeing movies frequently there will add up in cost.
Tonight I plan to try a In-n-Out burger for the first time. I have heard about these burgers in online communities for years, but they never had a store location in Florida. It was a surprise to find one here, and I'm excited for tonight's meal. [She says still very much in a monotone. So excited :| ]
That is all I can think of that's worth noting, so I will be signing off. Please note that all expenses I referenced have been made using personal money.
Anby out.

WHERE: Libra network
WHEN: Now
WHAT: Asch's dad has showed up to check on his kid
WARNINGS: None yet
[There are many ways Neph could go about this. It would probably be more proper if he reached out directly to his son, or to other Black Order members in town, letting everyone know that he's arrived and is setting up to be based here for a while. But he honestly does want to know how Asch has really been doing, and he isn't going to find that out just by asking people who know both of them already, or giving people time to prepare stories.
And maybe he also wants to jumpscare everyone who might recognize him. A man's got to find his fun somewhere.
So instead, you're getting a smiling, cheerful man with red eyes showing up on the network in a video feed. His demeanor oozes insincerity.]
Hello, Kaisou!
I do hope you all might indulge a concerned father for a moment. You see, some months back, my son Asch moved to this city. Now, he's a wonderful young man, but very independent, and he doesn't always come to me when he has problems. So if anyone can tell me honestly how he's been doing in his time here, I'd very much appreciate hearing it! Now that my work has transferred me here as well, I hope that we can all get along more closely.
[Is he threatening Asch? Anyone who might have been mean to Asch? All of the above? ...Let them guess, and let's see what comes of it.]
