WHO: 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?

WHO: 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.

WHO: Nephrite Curtiss and anyone
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.]

WHO: Everyone!
WHERE: Libra App
WHEN: June 1st
WHAT: Zodiac Network Post
WARNINGS: None!

[If you look out the window at night, you'll see the Spirit Vein shift from the dark hues into ones of brilliant light. Across the sky, the spirit vein will dance in colors all across the visible spectrum, making it a beautiful cascade of light as the Light Element takes hold.

Meanwhile, around this time everyone will receive a fancy envelope containing a fanciful invitation to the Goblin King's Masquerade. Be sure to take care of this invitation, as otherwise you might start to lose things.

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.]

Ophelia has left the app.


[The post then continues on.]

Hello and thank you for using the Libra app.

Oh great, because Janet screwed up so bad with mothers day, they want me to cover the pride post. Pretty ironic to ask me to work and not her during Pride month, but I guess I get why corporate wouldn't to chance it.

Anyway, Happy Pride Month. If you don't know what that means, it means unless you're one of the few straight people that are somehow on this app, it's your month to celebrate being part of the LGBTAQ+. If you want to know what those letters mean, ask your fellow app users- I'm trying to get out of here on time since I have a date with my boyfriend.

Zodiac is proud to help sponsor any Pride-related events that are going on throughout the city. Be sure to look for our booths where you can buy Pride themed merchandise. I will say while it's rainbow capitalism, I will at least say my employers do keep caring even after Pride month is done, so there's that.

Anyway, that's it. I'm leaving. Happy Pride. 🌈


This post is sponsored by the Cinderella Hair Salon! Your hair will be the bell of the ball this Pride!


[Users will have the option to choose their own display names and userpics 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.

Please note that there will be no city log this month, with the next event log being posted on the 15th. As such, players are free to make their own posts and mingles regarding city events. If you want more details on what's happening the city this month, it can be found here. ]

WHAT: Unpacking decades of living in the closet
WARNINGS: Discussion of homophobia and the perils of growing up in an authoritarian empire

Pride month... I missed it last year, having arrived in July. I'm not sure if that was for the best, or if I'd have understood more things sooner if I'd witnessed it.

When I came here, it was strange to live among people who were so open about something that had been a shameful and ruinous secret for my entire life. I felt...adrift, surrounded by those living in a freedom that I hadn't dared to dream of for so long. Perhaps even a little resentful of the ease that everyone seemed to take for granted.

But reading about the history of this upcoming celebration...it's harder-won than it seems from the day-to-day attitudes of the people here, isn't it? Still fresh enough to revel in the defiance of it.

Are there any others here from places that were less welcoming? Sometimes I feel like the only one.

NO, the pan flag needs to be a little to the left! Your other left!!!

[ He turns to give the camera a dazzling grin. ]

Hello my beautiful darlings!!! Guess what's next month? Is it PRIDE??? [ He waves his hand and a rainbow trails across the air in front of the camera. It's glittery. ] Why, yes it is! Only the BEST month in the whole year! As always the Vogue is going all out - we've got a showing of Juliet & during the evenings and after that? PARTY CENTRAL EVERY NIGHT!

As always we have our drink the rainbow challenge in case you want your picture behind the bar. ALSO as always, I need to remind you if you want to sign up for that you have got to have a designated take-you-home person because we all remember what Venti did.

WHO: The Dead Prophet's Society and you!
WHERE: Libra AND Gemini
WHEN: Late May
WHAT: It's the monthly prophecy post!
WARNINGS: Probably cursing, definitely some sexual discussions

[Everyone's favorite god of twinks—I mean, Freedom waves at the camera with a grin on his face.]

Hey, everyone! Since we've got so many seers, we're trying something new this month to see if it's less strain on one person giving out a lot of prophecies for the coming month. We're each gonna say what we saw in our own words, and that way we're not praying that one of us happens to be free to give the announcement~

So I'll kick off this shindig!

[Venti clears his throat dramatically.]

The winds brought to me a Venetian mask. Literally. It hit me in the back quite rudely while I was on a date with my lovely fiance. I think they're getting jealous, so I need to spend some more time with them. It's either that or a wind demon of some kind hijacked the winds to send me yet another message.
