[It's a bit late on a school night, but that hasn't stopped this teen from turning to the network. He appears to be on his laptop, though the only lighting comes from the computer screen as he has the lights off in his room. He's quiet possibly in his pajamas since he's wearing a T-shirt that's way too big for him too. His voice is a bit hushed when he speaks.]

I've been checking this place for a couple weeks and trying to figure it out, so I don't need the tutorial. Can't say I buy all of it, but I'm not here to argue. I need to ask something about those so-called "Echoes" or whatever they really are.

[He grimaces a bit and shifts uncomfortably.]

Are they normally so...random? Like giving you an irrational hatred of a fictional character? Along with a different mental picture than how you normally see them in images?

[He glances over his shoulder for a second.]

Oh, and I'm Nick. I'm usually busy with school, but this has been bugging me the last couple nights.

Who: OPEN
When: RIGHT NOW!!!
Where: On the road to Locke City
What: Areonwen has had enough of this horseshit. She busts out of her stall in search of Shou.

( There's a video for people to comment on if they like, even if Areonwen won't be able to reply to them until after the action part! )

( And a log for people to run into the horse and help her discover that she's psychic now! )

I've...I've been thinking about this whole...this whole...

[There's a pause while she makes unclear arm gestures that you can't see because this isn't a video post.]

this whole THING. With Proud, and the snakes, and whatever. Because it's terrible. It's basically totally terrible. In every way, except that I guess the snakes aren't a thing anymore.

But you know, tragedy makes you stronger, right? Like, that's what happened all the time in Greece, with all those heroes who had to perform crazy tasks and would accidentally kill their dad, but then they got magical lion skins and stuff. So maybe I'll get something out of this? I hope it's not a magical lion skin, though. I like lions. They should get to keep their skin.

My point is sorry I was yelling at everyone earlier. I was kinda freaking out. I feel better now, though. It's very warm in here.

[Wow, who is this kid?? It sure ain't Danny, that's for sure. No, this is the ugly mug of another network high schooler.]

I figure it's only fair to be completely honest with you guys, network and all, so. I just want to give everyone here fair warning...

[He pulls out a permanent marker and uncaps it. With one hand pushing up his hair, the other hand draws smoothly, elegantly all over his forehead.]

( kinda NSFW-ish image under here )

...my name is Skyler Veracruz and I'm a gigantic douche!

((OOC: If you play a girl who attends Locke High, feel free to assume that "Skyler" tried flirting with her (horrendously) in the past hour or two before this post.))

I must ask you something, network.

Do you remember anybody with... very strange names? Or who looked incredibly odd? Or aliens who dressed like frilly strippers?

Surely someone's Echoes must reveal such people.

[The video turns on from Eliot's tablet which is propped up against the book he is holding. The gentle sound of running water can be heard and a small glimpse of the lake may be seen. It's a peaceful place, calming.

Eliot himself is composed as always though his gaze is focused more out towards the water, watching the ripples on the surface before glancing back at the screen.]

I have been remiss in investigating this, network it seems. So I bid you all hello then, I look forward to what there is to discover here.

[ ~~who wins the award for the latest intro ever? this guy.~~

so what do you do on a saturday night when all your homework's done and you've got nothing else left to do? treat the network like it's craiglist. with an indefinite amount (well, as far as he knows) of people on here, someone's bound to have an answer. ]

numbers club right?

anyone ever tried to get a date by posting here?

better yet: was anyone successful?

inquiring minds wanna know.

So, this is the network that everyone is talking about? How strange is that? And here I thought I was going a little crazy here that I had all those numbers in my head but...I'm glad to know that I'm not the only one around here!

But if I got this right, everyone of us here has this supposedly past life or something right?

So how about it? I heard that you also had some kind of power from that life too!

What are your powers like? Oh, oh! Better yet, how about you can tell me what was your first echo? It doesn't matter what it is, I'm just curious what your past life was like! In return, I'll definitely tell you what mine was!

I doubt that you'll be able guess what it might be!

[Besides, it would be a good way to take people's minds off what's going on anyway.]

Danny.

I know it's the first day back, but at least TRY to pay attention.

This will be on the exam.

[and no, Sheila doesn't know how to send a private message via the network.]

horsesaround

[The first thing that comes into view is a pretty messy, standard teenager's room, coupled with a pretty standard teenager face staring at the screen. Double the standard value right here!

Jason gives the computer a skeptical look. Okay, he could talk to horses. Everything he'd read on this whatever it is? Can be completely real, too, right? Right.]

Alright. So, let's do a quick review for those us who took a nap during class. This thing, the [cue air quotations] Numbers Club, is the supposed terrorist group in town but it's actually not, everyone here seems like a normal person but they're actually not, the police are the supposed good guys but they're actually not.

[Nice long pause right here. Saying all that out loud just made him feel the urge to go call those nice people in white who would put him in that nice, tight jacket and take him away to the loony hotel. He suddenly sighs and rubs the back of his neck.]

Nice as it is to know my horse whispering career actually has a chance of getting up off the ground, I have to say the trade off of serving as target practice for the doughnut boys doesn't seem all that fair. Though I do have one question: [somewhat extended, dramatic pause] anyone here good at geometry? Cause there's around 2 pages worth of the stuff giving me the evil eye right now and winter break kinda destroyed any hope of me remembering how to do this stuff. Suspected terrorists should know something about rhomboids and parasols, right?

[That's parallelograms, Jason.

Hmm... he's forgetting something here. Think think think... OH names! Those are kinda important. He flashes a small, if uncertain grin at the screen.]

Ah right, my name's Jason. Here's to not becoming swiss cheese with you guys.
