network preamble

[Having come into some fascinating information, Junpei—

obsessively studies it for a solid day

—and then un: junpei posts something very short and simple to the network for once:]

hey, it's junpei. i'm in the 5th floor conference room in the district 2 building by the bowling alley if anybody wants to know some *big names* and read some pages that aren't half blacked out. you know, for fun.

i've got some chips too. come check it out if you want.

log part

[The conference room is all decked out for some frantic information sharing, or rather:

Junpei has hastily set out some snacks, that is: some bags of chips and a few soda bottles, mostly what he could grab as quickly as possible from the nearest convenience store. He's also tossed some pens and notepads kind of randomly onto the table.

On the wheely whiteboard he's pushed up to the end of the room, the head of the conference table, he's written in big ol' letters:

INFO CLUB MEETING
TAKE A DOCUMENT SHARE A DOCUMENT
IDEAS???

DON'T SPREAD IT AROUND TOO MUCH YET, WE MIGHT GET PHANTOM ARRESTED OR WHATEVER

The most orderly thing here is the stack of ✨✨Documents✨✨ up by the whiteboard. These, he has put in the effort to not make a frantic mess of. Welcome to the club.]

OOC: this is a mingle for the ✨plot clue✨ junpei has received and it is open to anyone who might be interested in the information! if you have cr with junpei or have talked to him even once about The Mysteries, you're welcome to handwave that he sent your character a personal cryptic text about something important, come see. otherwise, seeing his network message and showing up is just fine too.

Seriously...?

Man. I think that's the first time a place sounded worse than our City.

[limbical]

I should have a bingo card for how often I end up comparing my world to that City.

[abstractart]

What kind of squares do you even put on that?

[now he's thinking about it.]

[limbical]

Good question. "People turning into horrible monsters that are probably manifestations of their inner selves in some capacity" seems awfully wordy.

[abstractart]

I think that's just the free square...

[limbical]

Hmm, good point.

Cannibalism?

[abstractart]

Yeah, that'd be one.

Disrespecting bodies?

[limbical]

Oh, absolutely.

Unreasonable religions?

[abstractart]

Religions...

-oh, right, there was the Church of Gears. Yeah, that's one. Experimentation?

[limbical]

Church of Gears. Do I even want to know?

Experimentation 100%. Recent fallout on account of a war?

[abstractart]

Depends. I think they were misguided, more than anything.

War, though... nah. Not really. Not unless you count things like Syndicates fighting over territory.

[limbical]

Aren't all religions misguided? [bias]

Hm, I thought Roland had mentioned something about being a veteran, too. [because the widowers are still The Same Guy] But maybe I'm just getting things mixed up.

[abstractart]

A veteran...? What was--

[-ah, hang on. right. he read something like this, in one of the books.]

Oh. Yeah, you're right. I read something about taking out one of the former Wings, but that was while we were... kind of out of the loop. Still catching up on the last decade or so.

[limbical]

No worries. You'd know better than me, anyway.

Anyway, it seems like we've got a solid start to our bingo sheet.
