[ mass anonymous text message ]

[seasaltzombie]

[ anyone who believes themselves to be a sailor senshi thanks to the current virus may be one of the ones whose phone suddenly starts beeping a text message alert. how do you like mysterious tip-offs from persons of dubious identity direct to your mobiles, sailor ducks? ]

this morning i rescued someone from a payphone that came to life in the middle of town. i am not making this up.

if we're lucky, it might just be this world, but be careful. they're all over this city, so it might spread to other worlds too.

it's probably something to do with Kefka. ... keep an eye out. text me if there's anything else i should pass on.

Everyone was so yappy about how life is awesome, so I decided to let inanimate objects come to life so you could tell them about it.

Of course, not all inanimate objects like humans, given what you all put them through...

[ why does he even have your number oh wait the ex-semi-reluctant minion of a shadowy organisation thing ]

so it is you? your sense of humour really stinks.

[sandinmyboots]

Dramatic irony is hilarious, anon!

[Kefka has everyone's number okok]

[seasaltzombie]

says the guy with nothing better to do than come up with weird new ways to cause trouble for people.

I have not seen anything here as of yet, but I will be wary, regardless.

[Hello, other male not-sailor-scout-but-want-to-help-against-evil bro! Good to know we're still around.]

[ fight-against-evil bros, unite! ]

good. if it has batteries, go for those first, it'll slow it down a little.

[novicius]

How much damage are they causing for you?

[seasaltzombie]

... honestly? it depends how big they are. i'm really hoping we don't get something like a truck.

My area is clean. I don't think it's spread to my world given that there's only two of us with community access.

[ perma-anon text ]

[seasaltzombie]

that's a relief. there's already enough monsters around without people's stuff coming to life too.

[unknownrival]

Thank you for looking out for us.

[seasaltzombie]

it's no big deal. it's pretty easy for me to keep an eye on some things, so... why not, right?

What exactly...is a payphone?

[for those scouts who come from a world with less technology.]

[seasaltzombie]

like a box in the street with a keypad and a speaker attached. anyone can use them if they've got the money.

[eldesthatter]

what do you use them for?

[seasaltzombie]

to talk to people far away. as long as you've got a phone number for them, you could call almost anyone. ... when wannabe supervillains aren't causing trouble with them, anyway.

[papillio_tempestatis]

[The phone's getting a suspicious look before she answers it. She doesn't work with much of anyone...]

Thank you. I shouldn't be surprised that it's him, but I'll keep an eye out.

Where did you get this number?

[seasaltzombie]

he just texted me to gloat. it's definitely him.

sorry, but i can't tell you. let's just say that i have a lot of numbers.

[papillio_tempestatis]

Why am I not surprised? It is the sort of thing he'd do. As opposed to King Beryl and that ridiculous device of his.

That doesn't make me feel better.

[madeitsquare]

A payphone?

Kefka? REALLY?

[Roxas are you aware that you've texted one of Kefka's minions or]

[seasaltzombie]

[ dammit he needs better filters for this thing!!! ]

doesn't he tell you these things?

[madeitsquare]

That's none of your darned business.

[Read: not always.]

And here I was wondering where things were going to start getting dangerous again. We had some peaceful days.

[seasaltzombie]

it was just too good to last, i guess.

[howbadcanibe]

Any idea who can be this time? Turner D. Century? Dr. Teznology? Crazy Kilt?
