Um... hello? Is this working? I-I'm Ivan Karelin... from, from Flowers Over Bones, one of the kidnapped, brainwashed musicians.

I... I'm not chipped anymore, but I still don't have all my memories back... I also know about Arpegius and the other ghosts, and I helped to rescue Stella from Virgo's basement... and another one possessed me to break a speaker and yell at Juno... Virgo's basement is probably where they brainwashed us. I don't know about Pride's set up, but... I'll try to answer what I can about both...

[ He takes a breath, trying to get to his main point beyond offering to share what he knows. ]

I-I can shapeshift into people and things I've touched before, including people from both Virgo and Pride, and... I can use a katana and shuriken to defend myself. There must be something that I can do... maybe something only I can do...

[ ie: Use him. He wants to help rescue people. ]

Greetings, fellow Rescuers. It seems time is of the essence. Now, more than ever, we need to work as a team to save as many musicians as we can before the month is out.

This would, of course, be much easier if we all knew which musicians are in fact abductees.

Has some sort of concordance been made? If not, I propose we make one. Photographs shouldn't be hard to come by, considering the nature of our quarry's imprisonment, but also knowing which bands they belong to, and perhaps a little about their true histories and personalities might be helpful? That way we won't pass by an opportunity simply because we were ill informed.

May your lives be full of clear skies and full sails,
Nico Robin

Sora @onlyonesora @swagm4ster257 As long as you remember your friends, they're never really gone. #neverforgotten #friends4ever

[Several tweets follow with a lot of pictures Sora's uploaded from his phone. Some of just Yosuke, plenty of Yosuke with other Flashstep members. Some at dance practices, some at home, some from behind stage at performances.]

Sora @onlyonesora @cosmicqueen It doesn't matter how much we see each other, but how much we think of each other. #neverforgotten #thesunalwaysrisesagain #keepuphope

[And several tweets follow this with a lot of media Sora's uploaded from his phone of Nariko. Plenty of pictures of her, her with him, her with friends or fans, and he even posts a video of her singing and playing guitar, too.]

[As planned and announced online a few days before, Doctor makes himself comfortable in one of the practice rooms in front of the laptop Angel set up for the webcast. When the clock hits noon it goes live. On the website the chat room opens to the public.]

Hello every one! Ask me some questions and I shall do my best to answer.

[Join the chat room now!]

[ooc: NPCs friendly and mean both welcome. Earn yourself some MP that way.]

[It took her a long time to figure out any of the supplies she'd be given. She hadn't bothered to grab food or drink, but she couldn't resist looking over the other items. It was, well, interesting. Seeing her face on that tiny card. She wasn't particularly fond of the clothes, but rules were rules and she had to obey the rules the Masked Men gave. They seemed to be in charge of this world.

Eventually, she's forced to experiment with the communicator after several days of wandering. This leads to incomprehensible text messages that look like someone pounded on the letters, followed soon after by voice messages with only the sound of background noises and breathing.

Only after seeing several other messages does she grasp the basics.]

Hello there! Where would I require a "Personal Trainer Certificate"? I was told I needed one to train.
