D11 - Tiger 22nd
+++Thought for the Day+++
The same hammer that shatters the glass, forges the steel.
Weather
The morning sun dispels the light mists that had gathered during the night and by the noon the air outside is uncomfortably hot, causing people to seek shelter indoors. The spirit-powered air conditioning struggles to keep the buildings cool, the air kami moaning and whining in protest much to the annoyance of the shugenja able to hear their whispers. As the sun sets, the Scorpion samurai flock to the artificial islands, drinking chilled sake and carousing with their friends.
Kisei is waxing gibbous.
Hakusei is waning gibbous.
[D11 ME] Information Event: System Breach!
Note that this event actually takes place in embassies - if you want to roleplay the hectic measures taken to defense the clan networks, please set up thread in your embassy. The thread for the event itself is where it is just to have all the rolls in one place. ^^
Playing today at Once Upon A Theatre in Horogai mall...
The Well
A cursed ancient tape circulates around a small town where all who watch it will die at the hands of a dead spirit in a few days. A mother and her son visit the town after settling the affairs of a relative who died of the same curse. While performing an investigation, she inadvertently ends up watching the same tape with her son and is given 7 days to live. In a desperate bid to save their lives, she acts quickly to discover the origin of the tape and the curse, hopefully, the stop the spirit before her time runs out. The urban legends say that before you die, you see the well...

The righteous need not cower before the drumbeat of human progress. Though the song of yesterday fades into the challenge of tomorrow, the Fortunes still watch and judge us. Evil lurks in the datalinks as it lurked in the alleys of yesteryear. But it was never the alleys that were evil.

Ronin1: You knew Gebu, didn't you?
Ronin2: Yeah. What's up with him?
Ronin1: Uh, you might want to sit down.
Ronin1: They found him in ditch last night. Dead.
Ronin2: Fuck. Those fuckers.
Ronin1: Yeah.

Tourist1: Mai-chan, I really think we should postpone our visit to the islands...
Tourist2: Ryo-kun, we agreed to go today! Did you really believe that story?
Tourist1: Story? You heard what they said in the news! People saw monsters heading south!
Tourist2: These people were probably just drunk. Had a puff of smoke too much last night. The Dark Zone is fenced and guarded, remember?
Tourist1: So they say... but what if something attracted them? Or made them mad??
Tourist2: Come on, Ryo-kun, you're the one who's going mad. So! Where should we go first? The beach? The Sanctuary?
Tourist1: They said there were monsters that looked like wild beasts!!
Tourist2: ...
Tourist1: ...ok, ok... the Beach. I'll go buy some sunscreen...
Crab1: What gives? I go out for tea and now I can't get back inside! I can't even get a connection to call anyone.
Crab2: Don't you know? The embassy is on max-lockdown, nobody gets in or out. Gunso's orders.
Crab1: Are we under attack?
Crab2: Looks like it, it's probably a hacker. They're not taking any chances until they stop them.
Crab1: Don't we have defenses for that?
Crab2: It probably wasn't enough if they're taking drastic measures.
Crab1: Hida's balls, we're probably better off keeping our money in shoeboxes...
Shadow1: How do we get him back? Part of him is gone!
Shadow2: The human has a part, we could get him!
Shadow1: Yes, him. Whom else!
Shadow2: Maybe we could get her instead?
Shadow1: Her? Oh her, yes! We could use her to get him?
Shadow2: Yes, he seems smitten with her.
Shadow1: Oh, such a lovely idea.
Nari-chan gave a happy wave to her online audience in the morning, smiling brightly with closed eyes. "Hellllo, everyone!
I have some news for you! It looks like I'm going to have a visitor soon. Does anyone know Souta and the Detective from the Mystery Five? Eh? Eh?" She looked about with her ears twitching frantically.
"Huh? Ohh, I see we have a few fans from the Minor Clans here, that's very good to hear!
Ya-yaay! It's been forever since I've had a big live guest on the show! Uhm, not that Nyoko-chan isn't big. I guess she's plenty big, uhhh...
" She sighed with her ears dropping down. Then suddenly, the feed starts to distort and jumble.
"․․․wₐᵢₜ, wₕₐₜ'ₛ gₒᵢₙg ₒₙ wᵢₜₕ ₜₕₑ 𝆑ₑₑd․․․" Shhhhsssshh. Nothing but static.
