[After having a calming conversation with poor Nick, and dreading the confrontation with her parents about this, she's ready to pose some questions to the network. And to inform her Numbered buddies what the hell just happened. People who have spoken with her might just notice the difference in her voice.]

Okay. So. I got a couple of questions. And you guys are the only ones I think can at least help point me in the right direction.

[Maria takes a deep, shaky breath. She's still not as calm as she'd like, but it's better than screaming.]

Has anyone ever had an Echo change their...age? And, uh, if that age changes...what did you do about school? And...uh...telling your parents that this is a thing that just happened and you're about as okay with it as someone shoving a rabid wolverine in the pants you're currently wearing?

[Yes, that part is said all in one breath. She pauses for a moment to regain her composure.]

Sorry. Still kinda. Freaking out about it. And what it implies about past me. Ohhhhh boy....

[Voice]

Oh-uh. Hey there everybody.

So I was supposed to go to the mall with my aunt but she kind of ditched me, I guess?

Anyways I'm already here so I was wondering if anyone would like to join me for a bit to eat slash shopping. It'll be really fun, I promise!

...Pretty please?

...Did that sound to desperate? I really hope it didn't.

[Action]

[Or for anyone who's just at the mall and not checking the network. There's a fifteen year old girl sitting at the food court looking down at her phone, kicking her feet and just looking all around a little miserable.

...What do?]

[ Hello, network. Kei's not outside, which is pretty rare--he seems to have found digs that look way more fancy than anything he really owns. High walls, amazing furniture...

...Yeah, he's at Shou's place.

He knows it's recording, so he stills the strings of his guitar and scrunches his nose up. He's not really used to making network videos. Or any videos at all, really--you probably have seen him if you frequent the park, where he plays for change. He sighs slightly and decides to spit it out:
]

You have one band you have to hear for the rest of your life. What is it?

[ And, while he waits for answers, he strums an chord. ] I haven't been able to think of mine yet.

[Today you are graced by yet another glorious view of Matt, today outside. He is sitting on his aunt and uncle's back deck, by the light of a few citronella candles. There is dramatic music playing. He has a handful of index cards, that he flashes at the screen one by one. They read as follows:

So a lot of people have been asking me about Persona and stuff.

I think a lot of you don't believe me.

Those guys suck.

A bunch of you want me to show you, though.

It can't hurt right?

Okay I'm going to give you 30 seconds to walk away because it's disturbing.

No one under 13 OK?

So College got cancelled.

I'm devastated.

Who would cancel a show like that?

What would you have to be smoking?

CULT FOLLOWING.

I think it's been 30 seconds.

Last chance.


And he puts the cards down.]


Seriously, don't blame me if you watch after this. It's kinda dark.

Cut for Persona 3 summoning )

I can't believe they cancelled it. It was just getting good again.

...H-Hey, guys.

[ It’s night, and JoJo's bored and anxious. Which obviously means it’s time for... ]

Movie night! Y’wanna do it? Like, I can stream some movies here, and we can just watch ‘em all together, yeah? I mean, uh, it’s not exactly the most legal thing, sure... but no one’s gonna report me, right? Right. Plus...

[ He looks hesitant for a moment before blurting out his worries with all the eloquence of a sawed off shotgun. ]

I can’t stop thinking about that chick who got murdered. She was one of ours, right? The stripper chick? That’s so messed up, ugh. So messed up. I just don’t even wanna sleep; I’m just sitting here, thinkin’ about it. Like...

Ugh! Ugh ugh ugh! [ He shivers, runs his hands through his hair, and shakes it off. Deep breaths. Okay. ]

Let’s movie! If you got any requests, just ask! I’m gonna start with an international treasure, the most classic of all classical movies...

We’re startin’ with Space Jam. This one’s for you, Nyah.

[ JoJo then proceeds to stream via Space Jam, Dazed and Confused, Harold & Kumar Go to White Castle, Dude Where’s my Car?, Vampire's Kiss, Lesbian Vampire Killers, Joe Dirt, and The Room. If you make it all the way through, you are impressive as fuck, and I congratulate you because all of those movies are unbearable. ]

Look at this:

[ Linked is a story in the Las Vegas Sun about the grisly murder last night. ]

You're morons, all you people in Vegas flaunting your "powers." Go home. You're attracting the wrong sort of attention. Leave entertaining to the professionals.

And don't say anything about me, if anyone asks.

[Nick's speaking a bit quietly. His family might get suspicious if they thought he had friends to talk to after doing his homework all of a sudden.]

I got these a couple weeks ago, but I didn't have time to look into them until now. I've tried searching online but nothing's coming up. So.

[He looks down and the sound of a drawer opening is evident. He then holds up a very large deck of cards with the back facing the camera. The word "Mythomagic" is printed on them.]

Does anybody have any clue what these are supposed to be? It looks like they have a Greek mythology theme or something, but that's all I can figure out. There's not... something else to them, right?

[He's really hoping no one has noticed this weird mythology theme that keeps following his pulses, but his curiosity won out.]

[Maria is...confused, and she kind of looks like it. She thinks that's the right word for this. Her thoughts and feelings are kind of muddled on a memory she received when a vermini attacked her on the 12th. She's been thinking about it to herself ever since then, and only now is she turning to the network.]

Okay, so, two things. One, I got a sweet bow! It's cool, guys, like...the design is perfect for me, but that's not the only awesome thing about it. Just yesterday, I forgot I left it in my room 'cause I was going to practice with it, and then it literally appeared in my hands. I thought it was a fluke or maybe my mind was playing tricks on me, but I tested that out. This bow? I can totally summon it from wherever it is. Distance doesn't even matter. Unfortunately, it doesn't work on my quiver, but I'll take it.

[Despite her feelings on the memory, nothing can contain her happiness and excitement over this development. Still...it's not enough to dispel it completely.]

And number two...I got a memory, and I don't know how to...feel about it. I think it's something that explains why I have this bow.

[She runs a hand through her hair, troubled.]

So...this memory. Past me made a vow to the Greek goddess Artemis. I did some research, and that basically means I was a handmaiden to her. And the Oath came with some warnings. Taking it meant that she could only die in combat or if she fell in love. Does that sort of thing...I don't know, carry over? Do I have to follow that same Oath because I took it in a past life?

[It's text today for Liam, since there's something he doesn't want the network to see.]

Okay I realize aliens are historic and important, and I should probably be more excited right now, but what the fuck is happening to my ears? They're growing or something.

[Growing points, but whatever, let's not advertise that.]

I think I screwed up somewhere. They were sore so I put on a chili pepper extract that I use for my calve muscles after hikes, and now they're just burning like all hell. What can I do to get this stuff off them? Bread?

[of course this is text. Paul is a grumpy old fart who doesn't want to do voice or video. plus...most of the people he's talked to have been young enough to be his daughter and he doesn't want to make this weirder than it is.

so, text it is.

[Guess who isn't amused? That's right, her. The reason for her rather annoyed look is because she is now sporting a set of pointed ears that are slightly bigger than her former human ears. Even if she got creative with her hair, its almost certain the tips would peak out.]

Okay not amused. Gabriel this is all your fault! First you rock up with pointy ears and now look! Ears like yours!

[She turns her head so that her ears are more prominently displayed.]

What am I going to do?

[The last question is more rhetorical and is muttered to herself. She might be starting to freak out. Then suddenly looking up she furrows her brows slightly.]

I guess the better question is how do you tell you're family you're different?

[Liam leans over his tablet, and makes a few swiping gestures at it while he speaks. He looks a touch wary, but not particularly frightened.]

Okay I have a feeling I've found something I shouldn't have, but I think it's kind of too late now to back myself out of this. So, you guys are all a part of all the weird stuff that's going on, yeah? Are you guys the ones with superpowers like on the news or... what?

What does it mean if I can see all this, anyway?

[Hello, fellow reincarnates! Have a bemused looking teenager.]

So, I have a couple questions for you guys, and they're kind of important.

[She frowns a little.]

Big, giant, number one question is this: am I gonna get a computer virus for putting that number into Wikipedia? I mean, I'm kinda renting this computer, and while I don't mind crashing Wiki, I'm pretty sure a lot of people are going to mind that very much.

[Maria shrugs, looking a little guilty. Mayyyyybe she shouldn't have put the number in her friend's laptop...oops.]

Second question, was that weird pink light normal for you guys? 'Cause it's kinda unusual for Las Vegas.

[The girl pauses for a second. She's missing something...oh, yeah.]

Oh, yeah, and I'm Maria Angelus, Las Vegas resident. Ciao!
