[The start of a video is mix of white, yellow, brown and black spot of what appears to be someone's really small leg. Leg of a very small, fluffy creature. And it device continues to tape that same bundle and paw scratching at the screen while making purring sounds. In one moment, small creature gets back on two legs, "threatens" the recorder with its paws and... topples to its side.

There's a sigh from somewhere vageuely aside and a hand reaches out to grab the colorful kitten and other hand picks up the device.]

Zee, that's not a toy. You can't play with that. I need it.

[The device briefly tapes Tsukishima sitting on big, white sofa with big pillows, placing the cat in his lap before the feed cuts off.]

[Either Eren has finally figured out the video function, or he's just gotten lucky this time. Probably the second as he seems unaware he's visible, at least if the fact that his hair is all over and his shirt is open and rumpled are anything to go by.

In fact, unlike on the 16th when he posted in a panic or the many times after, he seems calm. Sleepy. His eyes are a bit dull, as if he's only just dragged himself from a deep sleep. That, and he's definitely in someone's bed. Those who've gotten to know him a bit might not be surprised Eren has been asleep for the better part of two days, nor that he'd been awake for nearly all of the preceding week.

But neighbors and strangers alike will probably be happy to hear him speak. The violence and fury is gone, replaced by something docile and almost cheerful. His tone is warm.]

Never mind. I found him.

[A duck flutters up onto the bed, apparently seeking out Eren's warmth to huddle beside on a chilly winter day. Eren strokes it absently on the head and then pushes it off the bed, causing it to flutter back down to the ground again with an annoyed quack of protest.]

And whoever Drake belongs to will you get him out of here and keep him on a leash this time? He poops on everything!

audio and video over two agonizingly long days

[the 16th, disgustingly early:There's a crackle of something like static, as the audio feed begins. To some the voice may be familiar, others, not so much. It's quickly evident that whoever this is, they don't know how to properly work the network. They're uncertain, and obviously confused. On top of that, they address only one person when they speak.]

Armin? Hey Armin? Hello? Armin! What the hell... How do I-?

[That's all for that, but don't think you're rid of him yet. There are more random "Armin? Hey Armin where are you?" Posts throughout the next day, until they become pretty damned obnoxious, honestly.

And then, on the 18th the guy finally figures the video button out. Or hits it by mistake. It's difficult to say. Either way, his normally warm, curious green eyes are filled with cold, dead fury. They promise imminent pain to those who might be responsible.]

Where is he?

[ Tanaka has the device set on something to keep the feed steady, because what he's about to do requires both hands. He has a recorder in his hands and is about to play a note before he pulls it away from his lips to speak. ]

This song goes out to Elizabeth, because she's right- there isn't any music here. I bet the Twelve gave me this as some kind of sign. [ And honestly, he looks relieved that it doesn't seem to have anything to do with worship. ] But I don't have any skills with music or instruments BUT I'M GOING TO GIVE IT MY ALL AND THAT'S WHAT MATTERS!! [ There's your warning, Ophiuchus is in for some potentially disturbing tunes.

Sure he hasn't heard from Elizabeth in some time and isn't aware if she's still here or not, but Ophiuchus better be prepared to turn their devices down or off.]

[There's a lot of shuffling and a loud, low, miserable sounding groan before silence falls over the device posting to the network. The sound of something being dragged through grass and dirt grows faint. Whatever is being moved is being pulled back from the audio receiver.]

I know, I know... I'm only here to help, okay? You're going to have to work with me, here...

[The video is just a shot of the sky. Occasionally, a blade of dull grass taps the lens and the wind blusters and cuts the audio out slightly. There's another low groan, and to anyone who has ever heard an Urlulu, this sounds like one. It's a soft kind of response to Gokudera as his voice replies.]

You're doing so well! Okay, hang on and I won't pull. Keep pushing though...

Oi! [The volume is a little louder.]

Whoever can hear me right now, I need some help!

[The bovine moans again, then snorts and there's a patting sound on the ground.]

Don't rush me, Lu!

((ooc: Tag in however you guys want, even if it's action! Also as a warning, this is about an Urlulu having a calf))

I need some medical help.

[May as well start the video off on point. Mikono looks both brilliantly flushed and concerned at once.]

When the tide waters hit a little bit ago, they washed a man up into one of the trees near my hut. He fell out of the tree after but he... well, passed out in my garden.

[She glances over her shoulder after that. A wet and muddy looking Shushu hops up onto her shoulder before giving herself a vigorous shake and earning a shout from Mikono.]

Shush!

[After a fun filled arrival on the planet and then their adventures in the caves, the first thing Sugawara wants to do is figure out why they are there. So leaving Daichi to explore the network, he decides he should make a post of his own. Clicking the video on with ease he fixes it against a rock formation so the viewers can see both Daichi and him. Still in their jerseys he offers a small wave as Daichi fiddles with his device behind him.]

Hello! I guess we are really new here, my name is Sugawara, Koushi. This is Sawamura, Daichi.

[He motions to the man behind him who waves dismissively in the general direction of the screen.]

We are both a little curious about this place, since this network seems helpful!

[Before Suga can continue, Daichi puts a hand on his shoulder to get his attention.]

Suga, I think maybe you should turn that off because this is the kind of video people post on this network…

[Daichi turns his own device until the screen is facing both of them and the faint sounds of the audio from Akashi’s video post can be heard.

Sugawara looks at the video before a faint red covers his cheeks and he snatches the phone.]

We don’t need to see that, do we?

[Clicking it off, he hands it to Daichi before he grabs his own phone. With the straightest face he can turns his own device off with a bit of an embarrassed smile.]

((Tags will be coming from both of them. So your tag, Suga, Daichi))

How the hell am I even supposed to know this thing is working anyway? A phone should just be a phone dammit...

[As if he doesn't have enough on his plate as is. He was in the middle of something important you know.]

If anyone's listening in on this pathetic excuse of a call, I want some answers from living people about this place and not some crumpled up note with an intro that sounds like it was ripped from a freakin B reel flick. I mean seriously the whole World is in danger cliche is so overdone by now.

You could've come up with something a bit more interesting if you were going to make up shit.

Hello, I will keep this brief and short.

I have a few helpful skills in which I would use to offer in trade for resources. For an example I have made three matching pairs of gloves for the following: Seijuurou Akashi, Bigby Wolf, and Ryuunosuke Tanaka.

I am also knowledgeable in creations involving herbs, plants, and paints from earth, stone, and clay. If anyone has any use of such things please contact me.

p r i v a t e;; Seijuurou Akashi

➥ Please accept these gloves as a token of my appreciation for your greeting me upon my arrival.

p r i v a t e;; Bigby Wolf

➥ Please accept these gloves as a token of my appreciation for your greeting me upon my arrival. I know you may not have use for them.. but in the least you can trade them for something useful.

p r i v a t e;; Ryuunosuke Tanaka

➥ Please accept these gloves as a token of my appreciation for your greeting me upon my arrival.

[ The video starts pointed at the green-haired man and he stares for a few seconds before blinking and raising a fist up to his mouth. He clears his throat and looks very serious. ]

I believe I am the only man in Ophiuchus who has given a wolf a blow job and survived to tell the tale.

The Twelve even gave me an award. [ No they didn't.

He relaxes his shoulder and lifts his chin confidently before turning off the feed. ]

The natives are giving me some shit.

[Bigby is puffing away at his cigarette as if it's food and he's been starving for a few days. It's a subconsciously nervous gesture. He's feeling some anxiety for a few reasons, first because he's not sure what to do with all this stuff, and he's not sure he should be being gracious enough to offer to share it. It's far more his personality to hoard things and keep them secret in case of future needs. However, he is trying to be a good guy here.

Wolf in sheep's clothing and all that.]

They said it's for my effort getting the new trading post up and running. So, it's really only fair due that I share some of this with those people who helped me in gathering everything.

[He takes a few steps to the audience's left and the large wagon comes into view. The natives are unloading a couple of large crates, one of which has bottles noisily clinking against each other inside of it as it's moved. Bigby crouches down next to two large coolers with solar paneling on them, and he opens one up to reveal containers full of dairy products.]

If you're interested, let me know what you want.

As with all of you, I was given a card this month. [ Akashi flips his own up to the camera to reveal his says "exhibitionism". ] In my endeavor to complete the card in as satisfactory a manner as possible, I've taken the liberty of putting together something for the network.

[ Surprise, it's porn. In fact, it's quite a lot of porn, each clip around five minutes in length:

The first clip is of him with Kise (redoubles), who have helpfully decided to put together a tutorial video on how to have good sex for the benefit of Ophiuchus! Mostly it involves the art and science of giving a blowjob, and a lot of snarky dialogue that implies quite strongly that they feel that they lead sexually superior lives over most people in Ophiuchus without ever blatantly coming out and saying it. Nothing less than one would expect from a pair of actual high school gossipmongers, really.

The second is of him and his almost lookalike Otonashi (trainwrecking), who seems unaware of the fact that Akashi's taping them at all, judging from the awkward camera angle and his maneuvering to make sure that Otonashi's never looking in the direction of the camera for more than a few moments at a time via distraction by very insistent, mildly aggressive frottage.

Next up is another hidden cam video of... well, to be honest, Akashi didn't even need to go the hidden cam route when it involves Mayuzumi (maidspecialist) blindfolded. If the sex is not interesting, Akashi's side commentary might be, though: Akashi spends most of the clip riding him and making passive-aggressive compliments on Mayuzumi's stamina which really only seem to indicate that Akashi thinks Mayuzumi is a fast finisher.

Taking a veering path back into "kind of freaky, definitely abnormal" just to make sure people are still paying attention with just a smidgen of what is edging into weird shock porn: the fourth clip is of Akashi choking Henry (necrowmantic). At least... they're both into it? Perhaps questionably too into it, but hey, they were just pulling double duty and filling two November kink cards at once.

And to end on a really weird note, because a strong endgame is always important, is Akashi collecting on a payment of spankings he owes to Imayoshi (perspicacitas). Their foreplay sounds like both of them felt the need to throw up as many quotes by dead philosophers as possible, but hey, whatever gets people their kicks, right? Right...

There are literally no excuses for this video compilation and the only explanation for it could be sexual deviancy, or maybe a latent desire to make as many people feel uncomfortable as possible. Akashi looks utterly unperturbed as he brings the post to its close, though. ]

I believe that should be more than adequate to be considered exhibitionism. Your role as an audience has been duly appreciated.

Hey.

[ On video is a lone redhead, rubbing at one of his shoulders in the currently empty clinic. Beneath one of his hands is a very small stack of vibrant, colorful books. ]

So, I... have some manga I'd like to share. They're, ah - very lightly used. [ While he glances away from the video, his eyes twitch, glistening but not quite damp. And just like that, the flicker of weakness is gone and he's delicately held together all over again. ]

But they're in good condition. I have volumes two and three of a shounen series, volumes one, two, and five of a magical girl manga with a limited edition sticker sheet included inside, and two of the same volumes of an animal rescue series. You won't be getting a cohesive story, but they might be an entertaining read anyway, huh?

[ 'They might be entertaining,' as though he has never once read them himself, or selectively chooses not to remember if he has. ]

It'd mean a lot to me if someone could enjoy them again. That's it, just - ah. Right. Let me know.

Thanks to some people teaching me basketball, I've gotten more than enough exercise. So what I'm tryin' to understand's why the Twelve gave me this?

[ the feed is a little shaky, but the culprit is obvious as soon as Kanji turns his video onto a shake weight in his left hand, currently in use. ]

Am I doin' this right? Somethin' about this feels... weird.

[ Kanji grunts, working the weight up and down rapidly, muscles tensed in his arm. When he turns the device onto himself rather than the phallic piece of workout equipment, his expression is contorted into something akin to disgust and his cheeks are flushed. It's hard to tell if the red on his face is from the awkward shake weight or from the actual workout. Regardless, now that he's displayed and voiced his curiosity, he turns off the feed. ]

... Houtarou is gone, isn't he?

[She sounds a little somber about this.]

I went by his home but no one seems to be there. His garden was mostly fine though but I've gathered some of the riper things so they didn't go bad. So if he hasn't and any of you see him, let him know I have them, alright?

[Mikono pauses there, a bit of awkwardness to her posture. Or what can be seen of it, which is chiefly her shoulders and face.]

The Twelve gave me a few things, gardening supplies and how-to books on gardening mostly. I know the best growing season is past already since it's getting colder but these seem to be mostly fall and winter plants so they should do alright.

[The teen takes a breath in, apparently trying to steel herself.]

I... need more people I can worship with. It doesn't feel right to constantly ask my friends. [Her voice dips gently after that, soft with her own sadness.] And if they all leave...

So.

[This shouldn't be so hard. It's been four months now. Here she is though, flushed and head bowed some. A little blob of white peek from behind her head and gently pats the side of her head with what one likely assumed to be her hair ties.]

In the corner there is a school girl uniform but he's quick to bring the video to his face, he hopes in time. His face looks a little flush but it disappears quickly as he lets out a long sigh.]

The gods gave me some nice things this time, well mostly. Although...

[His voice trails before he looks down and then back to the feed.]

I think a lot of people keep leaving...or I might be mistaken?

Has anyone spoken to Hinata or Kageyama? I just want to make sure they are alright.

Also if anyone wants to read any of these books or have some snacks, let me know. Thanks!

Because I've been informed I've been rather...reclusive... [ There's a hesitance to the enunciation of the word. For Martin doesn't believe he's being reclusive, but thorough. Who wants poor quality soap? Mushy pasta? Unclean medical tools? His melancholy? ]

[ A voice pipes up from somewhere behind martin, fondly critiquing. ]

A shut-in, Martin. [ And he’s cut off. ]

...I'd like to remind everyone that I'm a healer. I can also cook. [ A whispered aside. ] Which is really not all that impressive. Boiling pasta, making a stock sauce isn’t that hard. But for some reason Connor seems to think it’s worth mentioning…

[ Again, a not-entirely-unwarranted comment: ]

He is being modest. His cooking is satisfactory, and his healing skills polished.

[ A cough to clear his throat. And to silence the source of the interruption. ] ...anyways, yes. I’m Martin. Septim. Plain Martin will do.

[ There's a small text add on following Martin's message, hidden from him. ]

My housemate is a Scorpio, and, as has been said, a reclusive one. [ What's the most delicate way to encourage people to have sex with Martin...? ]

He is a learned man and enjoys educated conversation. Please engage with him.

[The feed is showing something... rather unusual. It's a hut- normal, slightly empty hut. There are few bags in the corner, one chair, a window, dusty floor and walls.

And buzzing bugs in the air. Fireflies, butterflies, moths, flies- anything small that can fly, is in the room, calmly flying around.

The feed moves to record Tsukishima's face.]

I didn't know it will end up like this. I tried practicing my powers but they seem to have gotten... out of hand. [That's a slight understatement.]

Does anyone knows how to un-summon these flying things? Because everything I tried to do just summoned more of them. [As he says that, a blinking firefly lands on his shoulder and he glances at it, frowning for all that is worth.]

[The video cuts on to the sound of many Urlulu shuffling about, the first thing on camera being Gokudera standing outside by the pen that had been constructed for far fewer animals. How they ended up in the pen is a mystery considering many of the animals he's rounded up are wild and seem restless.

He pulls the device back so that he'll be at one side of the screen while the teeming pen is behind him and showcased to the network. Gokudera has been out all day rounding up (and dragging) as many Urlulu as he can find in the hopes to protect them from anyone trying to take their pelts... and especially to protect the young calves. He has no idea if they're migratory or if he's even putting them in further danger by rounding them up in one secure location.

Behind him, Uri can be seen dragging another Urlulu towards the pen by its foot. It's not moving, and the leopard has probably killed it accidentally. She stops and looks up to see her master with the device, then walks up behind him, blood dripping from her maw while she growls.]

Okay, I think we've got most of the herd.

[Uri starts cleaning her massive paws beside him, pleased with the single cow she can eat.]

Get your own fucking pelts! These guys have enough problems with other animals trying to pick off their young! I won't just stand around and let people kill them senselessly!

[Gokudera promptly cuts off the feed.]

((ooc: Okay. He doesn't have the entire herd of Urlulu, but it's a LARGE amount of them. He's basically becoming an Urlulu farmer anyways so... yeah... If your character has one and you don't want him to have it, that's cool. I'm just wanting for him to try and ruin scavenger hunt successes and be something of an idiot on the network. If you do want him to have your character's Urlulu, that's cool too!))

So as much as I'm with the people who are unimpressed at the Twelve for this scavenger hunt crap right after the crazy-storm-that-wrecked-our-shit crap, you know what's cool? Trade. Why? Because when there's trade, there's travel, and if we're all gonna be trapped on this damn sex planet, I'd rather have some room to roam, if you know what I mean. Plus, food and all that practical stuff. Being pissy at these gods is a thing most of us can get behind, what with the kidnapping and all, but shooting ourselves in the foot is kinda stupid, and even if we get lucky and disappear there's still all these people who don't have any other home.

Anyway, I'm heading out in the morning, couple hours after sunrise. Probably toward the Gemini town, Alhena or whatever. Any earth signs--that's Taurus, Virgo, and Capricorn, if you don't keep up with the zodiac stuff--who wanna come can come. Really, anybody who wants to can come, I'm not choosy. Borrow a tent from the locals and pack light, cause unless somebody's volunteering a wagon we've got to carry back whatever we find.

[he gives a shrug.]

And if nobody wants to come, I'll travel alone. Fine by me.

[eta: open log here.]

[ ... Elizabeth's face comes on screen, a scrupulous expression on her face as she slowly tilts her head left to right. The broadcasting device gently fumbles through her curious fingers and her lips part with a final exhale before she speaks. ]

So.. Are snakes or men predominant here? [ It could be coincidence or it could be just another side to another coin. Maybe her studies in astrology meant truly nothing here and the name was fashioned for some other reason, meaning some other meaning--

Perhaps a woman grasping not a snake but something else? Wouldn't that be something? ]

Although I am capable of believing this world is really of no consequence to my own.. I can't ignore my situation after all. Being here without any rational explanation, warning, or even recollection of travel.

Where I'm from.. there are significant signs of ill omens.. serpents are one of them.

A LION’S mane, a leopard’s skin

Across my dusty shoulders thrown;

A swart fierce face, with eyes where sin

Lurks like a serpent by a stone.

A man driven forth by lust to seek

Rest from himself on Carmel’s peak...

[ The feed begins with a flashily-robed (and familiar) priest spreading his arms in a welcoming gesture. ]

Past, Present, and Future Sex Addicts club— I bid you a warm welcome. Haha, just kidding. I'm here with better tidings than a solution to all known nymphomaniac needs. After plenty of planning, late night sex scandals between the different elementals, and unheard of partnerships between Karkinos and, well, anyone, I'm proud to present plans for one of the benchmarks of any fledgling civilization: a trade station!

Now, I know what you're thinking. "But Bharani, what's the use of a building that won't receive your handsome patronage?" I understand the sentiment, I truly do. It pains me to say that I'm just not the farmer's market type. Sure you may see me here and there, getting some tea, prophylactics, a weekly supply of tobacco and new rope, but I'm really just there for the companionship. You wouldn't believe how stuck-up some of my fellow priests are! I've been holed up with them most of the time fielding Native complaints and trying to wrap our heads around the destroyed magic scrolls keeping this place together and it's driving me nuts.

Sorry, sorry, I'm getting off-track. So yeah, we have plans. A few settlements have been set up but the Natives sacrificed a lot of storage space for necessities for you guys, plus all your own luggage. I'm not gonna lie, I'm a bit disappointed there isn't a rental sex toy start-up business yet from those of you a little more sexually fortunate in the accessories department. That means they didn't get to bring their wagons, gondolas, carts and the like and travel is hard. This'll help. Real roads, a solid marketplace for the trading of goods, a few shrines for prayers and offerings to each of the Twelve, boring progressive stuff like that. Me and the other High Priests are going to get to repairing the magic that summons new blood as best we can, though, so you guys don't need to fight your way out of labyrinthine tunnels anymore. A great bonding exercise for all the new kids that never seemed to do you ungrateful little turds any good. Where's the fun in having sex with all the same people you already know?

Man I can't tell if those herbs were a bad idea or if I'm just really bad at explaining things by this point. I'm a social butterfly, you know? This is what happens when I'm secluded to my prayers and obligatory orgies. I just socially wither away.

[ Finally, the hood comes down, revealing a pretty plain guy in his late 20s with messy long hair pulled back and a put-upon expression. No dramatic reveal, no magic transformations with loads of glitter, 90s animation effects, and a glowing silhouette— just a mildly overheated dude getting some air. He certainly doesn't suit the flashy gauzy robes or fine embroideries. ]

Right. The trading post. Shrines. Native suffering— I'm missing something... [ Thinking, thinkinggggg... aha! ] Materials! That's right. So we need some things and your help would be appreciated. Hell, we can even make it a game. Separate into teams based on your elemental sign, and I'll give you a list of things to gather. The more the merrier, guys. You'll be the difference between a glorified tent or a shopping mall, got it?

For EARTH: Urlulu pelts, fertile soil, stones, and some local produce and herbs.

For AIR: Crested Liggett nests with eggs, preserved cuts from any available tree to transplant, some Hoedo pelts with feathers still intact, and those fancy reeds from Sertan.

For FIRE: Rosenmice pelts, flint, live lunar roses, and blue tulips.

For WATER: Phloraborr ropes, Yishe shells, basalt, and some milky secretions from the gueilch. Yum.

Get it? Got it? Good. You've got like a week, and a little roped off area will designate where to drop materials off at the fork in the path to the east of here. Can't really think of anything else that needs saying, but you all missed me, right? I know I missed all your bright faces and fine behinds. So I'll be around, here, if you have any questions. I also wouldn't turn down some company or something to drink. Doesn't this sound fun? Yay, braiding seaweed! Yay, penis clams!

[ Now that he's getting off-topic, some of the Natives are starting to give him a hard time and seem to be trying to take the device from him. He immediately starts whining, the picture going to a blur of his sleeve with the background noise: ]

Guys, come on, give it back! I need happy faces and willing conversation, you can't take that from me! I've already been working my ass off; it's just a tiny break! [ Click. ]

( ooc: So here's your IC announcement for the scavenger hunt! Ask Bharani anything your heart desires, whether it's about the scavenger hunt or no, he'll be happy to answer. Also alcohol. Also company. Anything, really. He's a bit desperate. )
