Awkward News Reports - Video

[deliver_my_feelings]

[It seemed like a normal video post as the screen pans over the familiar landscape of Yokohama's harbor town. And suddenly, the world goes dark. Incredibly dark. And then this happens.]

Fusion: My name is Fusion! I shall destroy all and dye the world in darkness!

[And with that, Fusion unleashed a powerful flame attack which was suddenly blocked by a shimmering wall of energy.]

Person 1: Were we saved?

Person 2: What happened?

Person 3: Hey, there's something on top of the Ferris wheel!

[Yes indeed. A certain several someones, very familiar to many people. The community really is good at getting the angles of this shot as more people spoke in surprise about what they were seeing.]

Person 4: There's someone on top of the car. There are a lot. There are 5... 10... a lot!

Person 5: They're girls!

Person 4: Could they be...

[And then an elderly voice cuts in.]

Elderly Man: That's it. It has to be. When the world is dyed with darkness... they are said to surely appear. They are the Legendary Warriors!

[And at the prompting of a squad of familiar mascots, everyone started cheering loudly!]

[Across town though, there's someone who is unfamiliar with the situation at hand, as a young girl is moving the last of her things into her room. She sighs a little, shaking her head.]

I hate this place...

Comments

[sunbloom]

Something happen? You seem pretty down.

[Itsuki's expression is carefully schooled into concern for the unknown girl. Because inside she's freaking right out at the congregation of Precure she's just seen, and wondering what to do.]

[deliver_my_feelings]

Huh...?

[Ayumi looked up and almost jumped a mile a minute. What the...?]

... how is the TV talking to me...?

[sunbloom]

It's... a little hard to explain. Basically, I'm in a different place and time from you, but we're connected by a community that chooses its members across space and time. We - on the community - heard you just now, and... I was a little worried, so I thought I'd check in.

Are you all right?

[deliver_my_feelings]

Oh um... hmm, I guess I'm okay. [no, no she's not and she looks downcast.] I... no. I'm just new here in Minato Mirai. I hate it here.

[sunbloom]

Ah... that's rough. I know someone that had a hard time making friends after she moved to the area I live in... a certain someone I know cheated a bit, and that girl is a little more open now. [Itsuki can't suppress a slight blush.]

Maybe having someone to talk to would help?

[icantbelievethis]

If this place could stop showing the future, that'd be great.

[deliver_my_feelings]

Another person?

[This time she was in her bedroom mirror. Ayumi was surprised but rubbed her head.]

What do you mean, show the future? It's 2012.

[icantbelievethis]

Here we go again. Sorry. It's a little much at once. Anyway, nice to meet you!

[deliver_my_feelings]

Er... nice to meet you too... [Seriously what else do you say to the girl in the mirror.] Um, how in the world are you talking to me? Is this some kind of magic mirror or something?

[icantbelievethis]

Actually, it's magic Internet.

[fightbymoonlight]

[Excuse poor Yuri here, but she's just going to stare forever.]

Wh...what the...

[deliver_my_feelings]

What is the what? [Forgive her, Ayumi is completely unaware of the attack right now. It won't be reported on until tomorrow.]

1/2

[fightbymoonlight]

How.

I.

But.

That was.

WHAT.

[Aaaaaand she disconnects. That went well.]

2/2

[fightbymoonlight]

[A few minutes later, after calming down somewhat, Yuri's back.]

...I'm very sorry about that, that was unacceptable behavior. I hope I didn't freak you out. I'm... not usually like that.

Re: 2/2

[deliver_my_feelings]

I-it's okay... [She was kind of worried but Ayumi nodded.] I'm sure you had a reason to do... whatever it was you were doing?

[harpbeat]

Ah, what's wrong with it?

[Ignoring that whole video!]

[deliver_my_feelings]

[Oh look another person in her mirror. Ayumi sighed a little and brushed her hair back.] It's just, I'm having trouble adjusting. New home, new school, all of it.

[harpbeat]

It becomes easier! I've traveled a great deal, and people come to accept you as you stay around.

[deliver_my_feelings]

... it seems really simple when you put it like that...

[harpbeat]

It is very simple.

[oceanicbutterfly]

[Just pretending she didn't see that news report. Because oh wow she suddenly might have to worry about her secret identity here again.]

What place?

[deliver_my_feelings]

This place. Minato Mirai. I'm not really happy about moving away.

[oceanicbutterfly]

Moving can be rough. Where were you before?

[deliver_my_feelings]

Minato, Tokyo. I moved here because my father moved us for work. I was planning on attending L'École des Cinq Lumières but that didn't pan out.

[oceanicbutterfly]

--ah.

It... seems like we just missed each other.
