Last week of school! Arcade's open 'til midnight! Who wants to celebrate?! Pizza's on me!

[[OoC: Feel free to mingle it up in the action threads, guys!]]

[Porky lacks in discipline. When an urge pops up, self-control and rationality can usually take a hike. Reason says that there's no real purpose in typing out a number he just so happens to get stuck in his head. He does so anyway on his home computer. As a response, a page from a site he never visited pops up.

Considering all the strange things happening in town, Pokey wonders if this is a part of it. This is a network and he realizes that. He notices a bunch of other people online who likely got access into this site through the same, imperceptible means. Pokey rubs his hands into his face and gives a groan.

He begins typing.]

Okay, so which of you losers is running the show around here? I think I speak on behalf of the entire human race when I say: stop it. With all the weird things going on, you're not helping by making this weird network. Two weirds don't make a normal. Capiche?

And the rest of you are just encouraging it.

[The post is made from a page in a school notebook, with the scratchy handwriting of a child. There’s a little arrow drawn from the top of the writing to something above it- presumably, where the number to connect was written.]

Dad said if I had something that would get out of my head, I should write it down to let it go. It’s not working and now my notebook is doing something weird.

[There’s another arrow drawn to the side, where Phillip sees the other network postings. After a moment...]

Can other people see this?

[ There's now video of a small ferret on the network, staring intently at the mirror. If you aren't familiar with Lyall's ferret Stella, you are now. The familiarity is about to grow. After a long, long period of consideration, the presence of several other animals on the network, several lessons in basic spelling and phonetics ("just write what sounds right"? yes, this could be awful) and literal weeks of nagging... put simply, she's caved. Not happily, but if it'll get Lyall out from under her paws...

She looks balefully into the mirror, refocuses her attention on the laptop next to her, then... starts typing. Very slowly. Hey, fine motor functions isn't her forte just yet. Or phonetics. ]

[Arthur has spent a bit of time exploring this network, and he's been getting ever more excited over everything, because holy cow, this looks cool, and screw consequences, I have something exciting to play with. So he'll open up a video feed using his webcam. He is grinning broadly, waving merrily, and looking like a kid on Christmas morning.]

HELLO, EVERYONE!

[He'll turn to address the goldfish sitting in a bowl on the table next to him, even going through the trouble to adjust the webcam so the fish is in the shot along with him.]

See, Slippy? I TOLD you it would work! OUTRAGEOUS!

[And then he laughs. It's not a crazy man laugh, but man, this guy is certainly in a good mood.]

[The first thing that appears is a nose, since that's what she's using to make her numbers. Her nose and a whole lot of kitty kibble, all arranged into little piles on her tray. And now that they're all in line, viewers are treated to a curious Russian blue, ears high up on her head with interest.

Unfortunately, though, she doesn't quite know what to do with this little portal she's created. Other than to stare and meow. And groom herself. And paw at the little screen... and groom herself a bit more.

This has been a very important message from Regina the cat.]

gentlebrother

[There's no picture, but you can hear a lot of heavy breathing coming from this kid. It takes him a bit until he manages to speak up.]

I... I... W-What should I do?

[And that's all he has to say.]

shiromadoushi

Anyone know a good place to test something that no one would really see?

Preferably someplace open.

gentlebrother

Who: Lucas and most likely you
What: Watching over the flower shop
When: Friday, after school
Where: His mom's flower shop (also his home)

( I actually have no idea how flower shops work ahaha! )

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.

You know, when I bought a new notebook, I wasn't aware that it could do this. Come to think of it, I'm not sure I heard anything about this in the news. Did I happen to get the notePad, or whatever it's called nowadays?

It's quite interesting, if nothing else. I've only had it about half a day and already I'm enchanted, though I remain baffled as to why it was only a dollar.

My name is Elian, by the way. Does anyone know if there's a manual I could study up on to understand what, exactly, is going on?

Arcade opens in about 15 min. Who wants to meet me there?

[[And anyone who skips the reply will find the white haired teen waiting patiently outside the arcade for the doors to open. Or, if they're late to the party, inside already going at one of the games.]]

[So whatever means of communication you're using, you're all getting not a voice, not a grunt or even a sigh, but a peculiar tune. It sounded as if someone's playing a game, and an old one at that. And on the screen, aside from the black background, there are tiny colorful sprites running around. One of which is avoiding numerous obstacles along the way. Looks fun, right? But you can't play it, sadly.

Because upon closer inspection, it seems that the sprites, the numbers and letterings, everything is shown backwards. And that background? That background isn't exactly black in color, just dark. But not dark enough to show what seemed to be someone's face from the other side of the screen. It's as if you're looking at a tinted window or something.

And from the looks of it, seems like the player's having trouble. Now that his character has met a Grim Reaper along the way. Whoops.

Hopefully everyone enjoys a good livestream of someone playing and failing a classic game?]
