(OPEN) probably the least secret secret meeting, all things considered

WHO: Setsuna F. Seiei ([personal profile] elswhisperer) & you!
WHAT: The code word log!
WHERE: City Hall Park
WHEN: July 12
WARNINGS: N/A


[ Over the course of the past few days, you may have noticed simple, nondescript flyers posted here and there across the city. All handwritten, they list a location (a particular statue in the City Park) along with a time and date (3:00 PM, July 12). Below that, an extremely brief message:

For establishing safe communications.

- moment.


On the day of, you'll find a young man in a red scarf waiting by the named statue. He has with him sheets of blank paper, pens, and pencils. ]


My name is Setsuna F. Seiei. 'Moment' from the network. The purpose of this meeting is creating a way to safely disseminate information to each other all at once. If one of us found an exit, or determined the identity of our captors, we'd be jeopardizing ourselves by revealing it openly over the network. At the same time, the network is our most efficient method of communication. We need to make the most of all the tools at our disposal.

We can accomplish that with the use of code language. One that's not complicated; that anyone could remember and pass along. What that code is and what we want to communicate with it is something one person can't determine for themselves. That's why I wanted us all to meet.

Without cooperation, we're not gonna get anywhere.

[ ooc: just a couple things! go ahead and mingle/threadhop as you like (especially bc i may not be the fastest tagger rn), and if setsuna has already mentioned to your character that he's been working on something, feel free to assume he left some kind of vague message about checking flyers over the inboxes or smth. ]

[Great—semantics. Junpei's favorite. He takes another look at the spreadsheet, having not looked too closely since he brought it over here for the others to add to it. Huh, those are treated differently...]

Great, whoever's behind the kiosks is being a wiseass. Maybe they're waiting for a secret code? Find the key words, get the real answers?

Great. Of course they do.

[Well, he figured there would be an active participant element to all this - precedence, and so on. If there's already a mechanic at play to avoid death, though, he does have to wonder what the purpose of the high-stakes can-be-killed-at-all part is...? Are the scales going to tip towards avoidance or complacency, that's the question.

But, kiosks.]


So... how do we start? There's nothing written down that'll help us ask questions. [He glances at the bit about other kiosks, hm,] Do we have to wait for them all to be live first?

What is this, a video game? Unlock all the kiosks, collect all the clues?

[Ah shit here we go again.jpg]

You'd think that if they want us to solve something, they'd give us a clue about what to solve. Are we just finding the exit? Unlocking a big door somewhere? Doing it like this is pretty crappy.

[Annoying; he frowns at the list of questions for a long moment.]

I mean, I'll play along, but what the hell.
