[In the video one can see Leonhardt himself, he's relaxing at his desk in his office. The most impressive thing in the room is the fact that the walls have numerous swords and knives displayed. There are various types and ranges of condition. One can even spot a couple of Japanese style weapons among them. It's obvious the man is quite the collector of weapons looking at this. Though looking at his desk and the amount of odd tools and gadgets and the half put together tiny robot, it's not the only thing he does.]

I know I haven't met many here on the network, but I wished to make an offer to those who may have an interest. My name is Leonhardt, feel free to just call me Leon since most have trouble with the name.

I know some here have obtained swords, the skills to use one, or both. I also know that a sword in the hands of the untrained can be quite dangerous.

My offer is this. Since normal training classes may not suit for all of us here I would be willing to set up a special class for those on this network. That way you can also practice using any unique abilities you have learned as well. Since we'll have all levels it will be more of a club or group where lessons will be given and people can practice with each other as well, mostly informal to aid all in gaining experience and good technique.

We'll use the same place where my father teaches his private classes. I have gained permission to rent it out for a very nominal fee, I'll just ask for either a donation or bring some food or drink to share with the others. That way we'll have full use of all the equipment he has so it can be done as safely as possible. I'm my father's assistant instructor and just as qualified to teach as he is. If you do not have a weapon I will do what I can to arrange to get you one that suits any skills you have obtained.

I am not going to limit to any particular age, but if you are under 18 I do need to be aware of this because legally we do have to obtain parent or guardian permission and I have to get you some forms in advance to have them sign.

If you are interested let me know so I can provide a location and time. It will likely be a day on the weekends, more likely Sunday since my father has no classes then.

[It takes him a moment to start typing, as the song still sends a chill down his spine, though he doesn't know why. Still, with all these people talking about memories, he figures he should share something. Maybe he'll even get some answers, though he very much doubts it.]

So I remembered something from the statues. Didn't touch them or anything, just hung around them for a while. [No need to mention the details, right?] I didn't get anything useful--just a song--but I am curious if anyone other than me knows it. It goes something like this:

The Rains of Castamere )

It's a long shot, I know, but I figure it's worth asking about.

[He pauses for a second, hesitating on whether to add more, then:] Also, all I got from that guy on the forum was that he was called No One, and that he's certainly not human. Kind of hoping this doesn't end up like Independence Day or Armageddon or all those alien invasion movies--I'm pretty sure I'd die screaming.

Oh, and I think I got a crown? It's pointy and made out of metals--nothing gold or silver, though. Or even remotely valuable. It just showed up on my coffee table when I got home, and all I can think to use it for is as a glorified paperweight. It's certainly weird, though.
[All those memories, the swordfighting skills, and now this crown--he's starting to get an idea of what's going on, here.] Anyone else get anything like a crown?

[ Just because Kallie hasn't been running around risking her skin against goddamn werewolves and other such stupidly dangerous things, that doesn't mean she hasn't been around- probably to the chagrin of those she happens to reply to on this silly network, actually...

Still, finals time aside, she's been thinking a lot, mentally turning over again and again all the nonsense crammed in her head by her various Echoes, the powers she's gained in between. Eventually, she has to say something else to start with, this time with a noticeably different tone to it than before... if as to the point as ever. ]


So, it's been a month now since this network showed up. I've been wondering: has anyone deliberately tried to induce a pulse/hollow heartbeat/whatever you want to call them? I'm not talking about touching the statues.

I'm interested in learning to fight. As far as I can tell, that seems to be important towards whatever reason this is happening to us.

Also, this is a long shot, but: Is there anyone here who is good at identifying weapons? In addition, is there any way to determine exactly what a feather came from?


[ ... It took her a long time to come around to asking (read: get to the point where she's willing to imply something so specific about her own issues), and yes, there is a reason why she didn't specify the kind of weapon and doesn't ask about birds when talking about feathers. Fun stuff. ]

Anyway, separately, private to Elizabeth Bishop. )

So has anyone actually gotten anything useful out of all of this? Or has it all been just one big, confusing mess that's more trouble than it's worth? It's not like this is making life better for anyone...

[Yeah, someone doesn't sound happy. And he'll say something else in some incomprehensible language. It's rather discordant, and it's full of sharp, short syllables. Definitely not a friendly language. If anyone were to understand the language of the immortals called Undead on Hajime's original world, they'd know he's just admitted to the network that his blood is green...but it's just going to sound like a garbled mess.]

Figured I'd throw mine out there since everyone else is. Not like it's going to do any good to anyone.

 [ Much unlike Casval's previous posts on the network, this one is comparatively short. It reads as follows: ]

What does it mean, to be inhuman? If someone were to accept such a burden upon themselves, would you consider them a monster? To be no one, rather than a part of that so-called "everyone"... is it something we should spurn, or something we should support, in the name of the greater good? And just what is the greater good, anyway? What is your concept of society's ideal, and the world as a whole? What separates the inhuman from the human, and why do we separate them in the first place?

...ah, sorry. I suppose I got a bit carried away there.

Well, at any rate, be as frank as you'd prefer. I look forward to your answers.
