[Setsuna is holding on to a necklace very tightly. A clover necklace, to be specific. Come to think of it, didn't she used to wear that necklace all the time before she 'died'?]

I know that viruses come and go as they please, but... Does anyone know if... I mean, would it be possible...

[She pauses uncomfortably, gripping the necklace's chain even tighter.]

Does anyone know of a way to make one stick around?

I'm guessing not, though...

About a day has passed since the previous video involving Setsuna, but it looks like no time has passed at all in the world itself. It resumes right where the previous one left of, with Cure Peach shaking Eas' body.

But this time the video continues. The plushie looking thing that only appeared in the background of the last video, takes the center stage this time. The crest on her forehead has started to glow. She floats up into the air, calls out and the crest glows even brighter.

A red light swiftly flies into the forest, straight into Eas. The light grows even brighter, to the point of engulfing the whole video.

The light stays like that for a little while. Eventually, though, it does fade. At the same time, the sun is finally breaking through the clouds.

Eas has vanished. Where her body lay before, there now stands a girl dressed in red. She stares at herself, both confused and amazed.

"I'm... a Pretty Cure?" She looks up. "Cure Passion!"

"Setsuna is the fourth...?"

"The fourth Precure!"

Cure Peach smiles widely. "Cure Passion!"

The video cuts off again, this time finished for real.

[OOC note: Red is Setsuna, pink is Love/Cure Peach, blue is Miki and yellow is Inori.

Setsuna will be responding this time, although it will icly be several hours later.]

Activating my marker system!

[There's a brilliant flash of light as a huge vehicle zooms literally out of nowhere from a cone of digital information as J boards it. In a shift of moving parts, Buster Heracles is standing overhead. But... there's no threat anywhere. What gives J?]

Triangulating coordinates. Nakamura, I require these codes input. And authorization for the teleportation system. I am going to another world.

[Whatever Nakamura is protesting about, including Kuroki and what's his face is overridden by J proclaiming,] I am Beet J Stag, and I will go pick up the Precure from 2009 and then beat Moebius in the box with my giant robot.

[Someone stop him. Please? We kind of need this machine.]

Looks like Setsuna is once again the victim of being recorded without her knowledge. This time, she's standing in front of a large window, overlooking the inside of a dome. There's a large crowd of people gathered before a stage. It looks like a concert has just started.

Setsuna herself isn't saying a word. She's just standing there for a while, watching. Just as it's starting to look like that's all the video is going to be, she takes a deep breath and presses her hands together.

"Switch... over."

As Setsuna pulls her hands apart again, her appearance changes quite drastically. But the way she looks might not be completely unfamiliar to some people on the community.

She then pulls out a strange, triangular card with a closed eye on it. The edges of the card are frayed. It looks like it parts of it have been torn off already. She throws the card and it flies to the ceiling, attaching itself to an air vent. It glows red and the eye opens.

On Setsuna's hand, a blue symbol with the same eye appears. From it, vines with thorns emerge and they wrap around her arm. She flinches, but shrugs it off quickly, then steps closer to the window and glares at the crowd below.

"Precure! I will defeat you!"

A big wheel-shaped monster crashes down, shattering the window and breaking open a large part of the building. It flies out through the opening and starts shooting out bursts of wind, destroying parts of the concert stage, while the people below scream in fear.

"Now, transform already!"

[ooc: Setsuna will be replying several hours later.]

[Oh hey, it's that boss from that Precure game! Huh, what? Setsuna? Don't be silly, there's no character with that name in this game! No, no, this is Eas.

Looks like she's in the middle of a fight, against some pink Precure with blonde hair. It's... not much of a fight, though. It's over ridiculously quickly, with Eas as the victor. She's barely even lost any health at all.

The video fades out, then comes back on, after everything is over. Eas is looking very bored and she casually takes a donut out of a box while she addresses the video. Where does she even keep getting those donuts...?]

Geez... Things have been so boring lately. Don't get me wrong, I love beating up these overly cheerful idiots and everything, but this is just insultingly easy. We need to get some better players or something.

That last one was so persistent, too. He just kept going and going even though he couldn't beat me. How annoying. [With a sigh, she moves to take a bite out of the donut, but then pauses.]

Ah, but maybe the players aren't the problem at all. Maybe it's just that all you Precure are way too weak. Hah, it wouldn't surprise me. You girls are pretty pathetic. [She takes a bite out of the donut and the video ends.]

[The video opens up in a hospital room. There's four girls, three of them in hospital beds. On one side of the room are a girl with blue hair and one with brown hair. On the other side is Setsuna, who's sitting by the bed of a blonde girl. Judging from the tarot cards Setsuna is laying out, she's in the middle of fortune telling. The blonde, Love, is looking at the cards very seriously.]

How is it? Did something change?

[Setsuna looks up from her cards and smiles.] It may be painful now, but you should work hard on both.

Really?

Yes.

Thanks, Setsuna! I feel full of energy now! [The other girls don't look as enthusiastic as Love, though. In fact, they look downright skeptical.]

Hey, Setsuna-san... Didn't you tell us to pick one over the other?

Why did our fortunes change so much?

[Setsuna turns to the other girls, still smiling.] Fortunes are fluid. They change over time. They don't remain the same forever.

Oh? It's like us.

Eh? [Setsuna turns back to Love, surprised.]

Sometimes we have fun, sometimes we feel sad. Sometimes we love each other, sometimes we don't. We're forever changing.

Ah... Right.

Okay! I'll eat a lot, regain my energy and work hard! [Love gives Setsuna a thumbs up.] Come watch the dance contest, Setsuna!

[Setsuna smiles.] Of course.

[With that, Setsuna says goodbye to the girls and leaves the room. Once the door is closed behind her, her smile is gone immediately, replaced by an annoyed frown.]

Hmph. Like I really care about that pointless contest. Honestly... [Setsuna starts walking, still oblivious to the fact that she's being recorded.] Such a foolish, naive girl. [She smirks.] Well, no matter. If she wants to tire herself out, that's fine with me.

[And on that ominous note, the video ends.]

[OOC Note: Red is Setsuna, pink is Love, blue is Miki and yellow is Inori.]

So Jin and J had intercepted a Metaroid. And this exchange occurred.

( Read more... )

I'm a little confused. It might not seem like anything major, but...

[Setsuna holds something up to the video. It's a plush beetle.]

I'm not sure where this came from. I checked with the others living here, but they said it's not theirs and they have no reason to lie about this. Hayato said it's mine, but... I've never seen it before in my life.

My home is very safe and secure, you see. Things don't just... appear. And before anyone asks, no one from the community has ever visited my home. I don't know anyone who would leave something like this anyway.


[ooc: Setsuna's forgotten about J.]

I have teleported a human child to the base.

She is without memory, the doctors are looking at her.

How do I father her? I have never done this before.

Help. I am not programmed for this.

[Welcome to the the home of Lord Edgar J.C. Ashenbert, the Earl most recently recognized by the Queen. You've been invited to the celebration of that honor, though the celebration is being kept secret from most of their society.]

[ooc: for those who don't have a worldhop and have no way to get one, assume your character let Edgar know as he's hired Greed to help.]

[Setsuna is looking a bit confused. She also seems to have acquired a pair of angel wings, which are just big enough to be visible behind her.]

I see there's a lot of viruses going around on the community. Sorry, I'm a little bit out of the loop. My memory is a bit fuzzy and... I think I blacked out for a day or something? Maybe I got hit by a virus too... It just feels like I had a weird dream, though.

I did wake up with these, though. [Setsuna pokes one of her wings curiously.] So that's different.


[ooc: Setsuna doesn't remember being a kid at all. Because her mun is a horrible person. Also her wings are a smaller version of these.]

[Oh hello there, community. Today, you're greeted by the sight of a little girl. She hasn't been on the community before, has she? Whoever she is, though, she doesn't look all that normal. Her hair is a silvery grey color, while her eyes are red and look very dull, almost dead even. Actually, aside from her age and her hair color, she almost looks a bit like Setsuna. How odd.

She seems a little confused, but doesn't say a word, or otherwise do anything. She's just standing there, staring into the camera, her eyes wide. So what're you going to do about the creepy little girl, community?]


((ooc note: replies will come from saplingofhappiness))

[The feed turns on to reveal Kanade apparently in the Lucky Spoon's kitchen, silent; it takes a few seconds for her to work up the courage to speak.]

S-so I'm trying to find something new to make, since I can't make cupcakes all the time, or I'll get rusty with everything else. D-does anyone have suggestions? I'll understand if you don't, but I thought I'd ask just in case...

[She's wringing her hands while she talks, and is having issues making eye contact with the camera. Make suggestions/confront?]

( Read more... )

It's the day of the Tanabata Festival, and Yayoi is fielding traffic to and fro from the Mysterious Library and meeting people who are coming in with their own worldhops. You may see some of her teammates around including a fairy named Pop around today, but for the purpose of it, everything is funtimes!

There's a lot of people around and arriving at the front gates of the festival grounds, there's a ton of stuff to do, such as fish catching, food vendors and other assorted games. Have a ball and mingle. Because tonight, the Smile Precure are in for the fight of their lives.

Pegasus Day is upon us as well, since Marchenland celebrates the same occasion on the same day. So try not to ride the Pop!Pegasus around too much.

(ooc: minglepost, have fun, tag around with CR etc.)

Could someone please tell me what this is supposed to be? [Setsuna holds up the red string for a moment and then drops it. She looks fine, if a little distraught. Rest assured that inside, she is freaking the hell out.] It just suddenly appeared along with J and I don't know what's going on.

I tried to untie it, but nothing seems to work. If someone knows anything, please help...

J, this is important. Shut down the marker system now and deactivate my avatar.

[It's going to take him some time to realize he didn't lock this in the least.]

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.

Ah, excuse me? [The video opens on a dark haired girl, wearing a white dress. She looks pretty ordinary and there's a polite smile on her face.]

I was hoping someone might explain this place to me. I don't really use sites like these, so I'm a little confused why it showed up out of the blue. Is this normal? And is there any way to make it go away?

Oh, I'm Setsuna Higashi, by the way. It's nice to meet you all.
