[When Hanayo's transmission begins, it could almost be mistaken for an audio post, considering that there's no one visible on the screen.  The only sound that can be heard is clearly coming from somewhere off-camera, slightly muted from the distance.]

Eh...?!  B-but... I don't think...!  Th-that's...!

[However, it's only a matter of moments before a flustered looking young girl with glasses is pushed into view by a Happiny, a Magby, and a Kricketot.  All three of them smile cheerfully for the camera - a glaring juxtaposition with the girl's own nervous expression.  She sighs and makes a little 'mooouuuu~' noise at her Pokemon before addressing the camera, though she never makes direct eye contact and her voice is rather quiet.]

U-um... hello.  My name is Hanayo Koizumi.

[...She pauses there for a moment, but her Pokemon egg her on for more.]

Oh...!  Ah... I just got my Warp Band today, and I'm thinking of looking for more Pokemon friends.  I'm sure I'll see some of you around, so...

[Hanayo awkwardly bows her head, eyes squinted shut tightly.  She really has to concentrate to speak at a normal volume.]

...I hope we can get along!

[And she reaches out to shut off the feed.  She'll answer anyone who calls her back, but right now she needs a moment or two to collect herself.]

[Action]

[Estelle's been practicing a lot, lately. Ever since she went into the Coastal Ruins, she felt a need to stretch her arms and legs a little -- to get better, as if that could somehow make the disturbing sights she saw down there better. It won't; she even knows that on a level. But it means that she's been hitting the training up harder to get herself in shape for what's coming up.]

[Case in point, today she's in one of the parks out by the agricultural tower, going through her practice sessions with her staff. The problem with Normal-type Enlightened is that sometimes they don't notice when they've evolved. It can be subtle; she actually did a while back, and just never quite registered. And for someone like Estelle, who operates on impression and instinct...]

[...well, occasionally problems happen.]

[Here, she swings her staff out with a fierce chop -- and then suddenly fire forms off the staff, swings through the air, and slams into a bush. Which ignites into flames, with a spray of sparks, and leaves Estelle staring at it for a second.]

[Then, the shouting.]

WHY ARE YOU ON FIRE!

[Video, couple of hours later.]

[Estelle looks a little... embarrassed, still. But she's got the jacket off, just wearing her shirt underneath, and peers down at the warp band.]

Hey guys. I heard something about a holiday.

[She pauses, then grins.]

Is there going to be all sorts of festivals and cool food and stuff?

Round 1 [Video/Action]

Video

Sheesh, its been boring here lately. How can any of you stand it?

[The Warp Band feed shows Sho looking bored out of his mind. And a bored Sho usually meant some sort of chaos was going to happen in the near future.]

And what's with all of this stuff? [To punctuate his point, he flicks a decoration, making it wobble dangerously.]

Action

[Normal people would use the walkways like everyone else. The paths existed for a reason after all. But Sho didn't care much for such things. As of right now, he was just leaping between buildings and getting around that way. Down below, his Houndour Kagutsuchi trotted along easily and in no rush at all to keep up. They always found each other in the end anyway so he saw no reason to fret.

Coming to a stop on one roof, Sho looks around briefly, makes a bit of a disgruntled sound and leaps into the street below, not bothering to check if he almost landed on someone or not.]

[Nozomi comes on over the feed, wearing an interesting hat, her hair tied in a braid to the side instead of her usual pigtails.]

Hi everyone! I know Soulfasting is still a month away, but I wanted to let everyone know that we're selling decorations and masks at my shop, Etteilla. If you want a special order, you'll need to make it pretty soon, otherwise we won't have time to make them.

Also, in honor of the holiday, I'll be doing tarot card readings for ten percent off, or fifteen if you buy anything from the store. We're open throughout the day. Come see us!


[Action; Open to all]

[Etteilla, nestled in the middle of Ninetails Vale on a busy street corner, is particularly busy today. One of the big places to go for Soulfasting supplies, Nozomi, along with Mithra the Nidoking and Coeus the Reuniclus, are busy at work. While the first two are selling their normal wares along with decorations, Coeus seems to be working on something else, an easel set near the cashier's desk. There are paintings near him, all with price tags. They range from people, to other pokemon, to landscapes, and while they are certainly amateur works, they're not bad. He seems very proud of them, at least.]


[Action; Locked to Eri]

[It was late, and Nozomi was restless. Something had been on her mind lately. After sharing a vision with Rei Hino, she found she couldn't stop thinking about it.

Seeing herself perform on stage, standing with others, it seemed more than a bit out of character for her. But despite this, she got the feeling that she was enjoying herself. There was a warmth that she hadn't felt before, something that was hard to place.

What was the purpose of that vision? Who were the others standing with her, dancing with her? She felt that most of them were familiar to her, if not close.

Her cards were being difficult. They always were when she was on the brink of a breakthrough. Leaning over the array of cards, her mug of coffee steaming not too far away, Nozomi sighed heavily. She should go to bed, but this was going to bother her in her dreams if she didn't get it figured out.]


[Voice; to Maya]

[Sometime between 2 and 3 in the morning, a voice transmission comes in over her warp band. Nozomi sounds surprisingly quiet, her voice a little less confident than usual.]

Mayocchi? Are you around?

13 - Video, or Action if anyone happens to be in the Outer Wildwoods

[niepokonany]

[The Warp Band shows a slightly fuzzy image for a moment, of what might be leaves and the sky -- it's a little hard to tell, frankly, in black and white.]

[After a little bit of struggle, someone finally manages to angle the camera over towards where a simply massive Snorlax is napping on its stomach in the middle of a shadowy, overgrown patch of forest. Something is moving underneath it -- is that a human arm? It is, and it's flailing rather desperately. A very concerned looking Rapidash is sort of trotting anxiously next to them, nudging at the hand.]

[And then several members of an Exeggcute hop into the foreground, babbling over each other in apparent concern. How did they get the Warp Band off of the trapped trainer? It's a mystery.]

[Any Pokemon, Shifters, and Kindred Souls will be able to hear them babbling about how the Gardevoir told him not to nap on the Big Blue Thing, and he's trapped now, and they tried waking it up with the Power of Dance, but it didn't work, which is probably because they don't have hips, and anyway, someone come and save him! Save him before it's too late! Don't let his mad strong dance game be lost forever! Everyone else will just hear them babbling.]
