Is this how you work it? I really need some-oh, it's on! Great! It was getting frustrating after a while, but it...looks like the video on this thing is working.

[And so the face of a spikey-haired boy comes into view, his face showing signs of excitement.]

Ciaossu! Listen, there's a problem here. See, this place keeps on popping up on my computer, and I've tried several times to make it go away. But, it just won't! I really don't know what to think about it.

Anyways, it's really starting to clog up my computer by this point, and I'm wondering if there is any way to just make it go away. What is this place supposed to be, some sort of...social network site? This is all sounding way too familiar with what Natsume-san does.

...oh, right! I forgot about it. Ahem, my name is Souhei Sasahara, but my friends call me "Sasayan", so feel free to call me that. If you have any idea on how to help me, please let me know! If it doesn't go away then... [A bit of despair seemed to flash on his face at that point, quickly replaced by his usual grin.] Thanks, you've been helpful!

How do you make somebody happy when they're convinced that they don't deserve it, probably because there are some people out there who want them to believe that?

I don't exactly have the free time to spend on something like this, but at the same time, stress-relief is important, heh. Casual conversation over a network like this isn't so nervewracking...

Getting to the point, it's nice to meet you, I'm Kira Izuru and I've only just come across this notebook in my desk - is that normal?

You'll have to forgive me for being ignorant to the workings of these sorts of communities, but, from taking a quick look around, what exactly do the combinations of characters that don't make up a word mean? Are they abbreviations, and if so, of what?

[ Unlike the first time, Lilly's voice doesn't sound as confident. ]

So, I've heard from those multiple posts in the network that you're having trouble with these red strings suddenly appearing on your fingers. I'm not sure if that occured to me as well, but...

[ A short pause. ] I think I ended up in some place that isn't my school.

[See a confused face brighten just a little when the video starts--]

Wow. So, uh, there really is somethin' on this thing to talk to, huh? And it looks like there's even a lot of you guys. That's amazing! Though I really thought Sanzo and Hakkai were talkin' to themselves for a while there...

Ah! Say, what's this Community thing about, anyway? It's different from anythin' I've seen before.

Good afternon, everyone.

I apologize in advance for my lack of experience with online communities, but this is the first time that I expose myself in such enviroment. If I say something that is against the forum's etiquette, please do let me know.

That being said, I should introduce myself. My name is Lilly Satou, I'm from Japan and I'm currently studying in Yamaku's private High School. It is a pleasure to make your acquaintance.

Since this community seems to rely on questions and help, from what I heard, I only have a little one: is it true that some of you come from various worlds, not just from Earth? I would find that to be rather fascinating to know. Forgive me if this was already asked before, and it is none of my business, I am merely curious.
