Hello network.

[ He's got a better idea of how to use the device now, and he's actually holding it correctly. Text transcription into other languages was another skill he picked up, but being this is the quintessential English prick, Arthur sees no reason to try and communicate with those that don't speak his language. ]

Currently I'm located at-- [ A glance about. ] --err, in front of the Latimir apartments in Discedo. I have a question for those who are willing to lend their assistance: The 'monsters' that surround the area; can anyone offer anymore information regarding them? Hopefully other than those prone to shouting about rail tracers and other inanities that won't help my cause.

My second question might be more alarming, though I urge those that are listening not to be frightened by my request: I'm attempting to locate a few weapons to aid me in my... [ His eyes flit to the side. ] ...explorations.

Do not hesitate to contact me at this frequency, or to come here if you are within the area to talk. Thank you for your time.

[ Being vague on purpose? What do you mean he's being vague on purpose? ]

What about the Rail Tracer? [ ON THIS LIKE PASTRAMI ON A RUBEN. ]

[ GUESS WHO HE WAS TRYING NOT TO GET HELP FROM ]

America, if you've no information of value to offer me, then please desist from engaging in pointless conversation with me.

[ With a tilt of the head. ] ...unless you have some useful information to contribute about this... 'rail tracer'.

DEAL WITH THE ACTION!!!!!!!!!!!!

_{[ Out of nowhere, there is a Korean bolting towards you.
You hear him before you see him. ]}

YEEEEEEEEEONGUUUUUUG!!

_{[ NEARLY BULLDOZERING INTO ENGLAND.
Nearly. You're safe this time because he slows down a lot.
It is an enthusiastic embrace, followed by extensive clinging. ]}

Aaaaah, it is so good to see your bush brows in person!!! I was so excited! So excited!

get out

[ OHGODOHGODOHGODHE"S GOING TO DIIIIIIIIIIIIEEEEEE-- ]

--KOREA! [ CRINGING READY TO BE KNOCKED DOWN AND---it.... it doesn't happen. He just has a rather annoying Korean teenager clinging to him like the plague. ]

...Korea. [ And suddenly, pushing, squirming, general freaking out because he's touching him! ] IM YONG! [ Pushing at his face and chest and arms and--breaking away. And then standing a good six feet away from the Korean man, brushing himself down before huffing. ]

Korea. It is generally not considered polite to attack people like that, just so that you are aware. I am... not quite as excited to see you, but I suppose I am pleased... in the way one is to see a beloved dog that has ran away for some time, only to find it once more after many days of worrying, but finding out it has become rabid. [ A frown. ] Did you hear my message to the network?

You know, when you act so shady like that, people won't give you anything. [She knows you must know at least some French don't you dare ignore her.]

Speak English. I don't know what you're saying. [ aka I'm prideful speak my language or I'll hang up ]

Only one good way to find out how dangerous something is! [ read: fight the shit out of it. ]

Hmmmm, you could always use a sword. In my experience, there's usually some lying around if you look hard enough. Might have to pry it off a skeleton, but they had their chance with it.

video;

[noblemen.livejournal.com]

Precisely. However, I'd like to gather information anyway just in case I'm familiar with the beasts of the area. Some may be more benevolent than they look, and others more malevolent, of course.

A sword would be acceptable, seeing as I'm quite skilled in using one. [ A raise of the brow. ] However, seeing as it is no longer Medieval times, locating a skeleton with a spare sword might be slightly difficult. Can you offer any other suggestions?

[Oh, no you don't she has enough to worry about.]

And just what are you planning?

[ You know, he was considering locking this from her, but he figured she'd be too busy to pay attention... oh well. He's a man, he can control his own life!! ]

I'm going for a walk.

[ Well, he isn't lying... ]

You can borrow Artemis if you want.

[ She holds up a scythe. ]

[noblemen.livejournal.com]

[ Well. ]

[ That's the most helpful thing anyone has offered him thus far. He smiles at the girl on the camera. ] A fine offer indeed. You're so willing to lend your weapon, would you perhaps be willing to lend your assistance as well?

[Your fear draws him like a shark to blood. It makes him stronger.]

Angleterre. [Patient. So patient. He taps his fingers somewhere. Drumming. They drum with select, precise intervals so that his fingers fall--then silence--fingers fall--then silence.]

Angleterre.

[The worst of it is that the following is in English.]

Subtlety was something at which you never succeeded. [consistent. drumming.]

You have nothing to fear, Angleterre. You, the mighty empire that you are--or is it were? I did hope you would not fade and rot as you apparently have-- The mighty empire you are, you would not object to a meeting in person, oui?

[And then... Silence.

There is nothing.

But.

Silence.

France's features split into a smile and he laughs softly.]

If you do not agree to meet with me, as you will certainly do out of this fear which has apparently gripped you with your usual stupidity, I will locate you myself.

Oh!

Look! Look at how simple this will be. Collect your rifles, swords and cannons, Angleterre, Arthur. Gather your toys into your arms!

... I simply want to talk.

[ But finally, he sighs, and closes his eyes, and with a shake of the head, consents to the Frenchman's demands. After all, if the French dandy wants to have a meeting so badly, then so be it. He'll do that, have that over with and carry on with his explorations in earnest. ]

When you're done with your dramatics, Francis, you'll find that I'm right in front of the building you happen to be staying in, you foppish twat.

[ It's not like the histrionics are out of character for France, in almost any time period. Why should he take this one more seriously than any other? ]

Also, if you happen to know the location of any weaponry, that would be most helpful. But seeing as though you tend to be useless in most regards, you probably have trouble finding your clothes by yourself the moment you take them off.

Go on then. [ Another sigh, and he begins to tap his foot. ] I'll wait patiently for you.

youre in front of latimir?

That I am. [ How did this person make the text purple... ] Are you within the general area?

[musicboxsoldier.livejournal.com]

I picked up a rifle at the arms store. You can use it.

[noblemen.livejournal.com]

I would be most gracious, Commander. I suppose it's safe to tell you what I plan to do; I want to venture out into the forest. I'd like to see if there's an escape route through there, as I know there's none through the city that I've heard of.

[fierybluebird]

Yes. I've been compiling a zoopedia on them. Which one is the problem? Do you need help fighting or dealing with them?

[noblemen.livejournal.com]

That is most useful, actually. None are the problem, per say, rather, I'm just curious as to what I'm going to be dealing with. Yes, fighting, to an extent, though not all of them will be vicious, I'm sure. Most things can be tamed, and most react out of fear. Only a select few are naturally aggressive, at least in my experience with 'monsters'.

[video / English]

[bauhinia]

What kinda weapons?

[ Priorities, man. He's got 'em. ]

video; (so how about that visit...)

[noblemen.livejournal.com]

Hello Hong Kong. Any and all types; I've always preferred long range weapons, though I'm also skilled with a sword. My least favourite things to use are bludgeoning objects, but as I said, almost anything will do.

[ voice ]

[madamefatale.livejournal.com]

'Monsters'. And just why do you want to know about these things, Arthur? Surely you are not doing what I think...

[ There's a noticeable sound of disappointment and disapproval in her voice. ] And I was so happy to hear you had made it here in one piece.

video;

[noblemen.livejournal.com]

I'm trying to find a way out. You can't expect me just to stay here and suffer, now can you? Trust me, I know what I'm doing.

[ He's a little disappointed himself that she decided not to jump on video, but it isn't like he'd voice that. He smiles a little, though hides it under a hand against his cheek. ] I'm going to be just fine, don't worry me, love. [ Whoops didn't mean to say that moving right along ] And then I'll take you along with me once I find the way out, and it'll be all peaches and cream, right?

...I believe Marco has a list of sorts. Is England-san planning something?

video;

[noblemen.livejournal.com]

That I am. I'd like to explore the general area, perhaps venture out further than has been explored before. Beyond the cities that have been mapped, there has to be something more out there.

[China gets out of bed, opens the window, and looks down at the other. He's only on the first floor, so it's not too hard to see him.]

Oi, Yīngguó.

[China definitely looks less sickly then he did before. His tone is neutral.]

[noblemen.livejournal.com]

[ --a glance behind him and Christ, he really does look like that. Arthur can't help but do a double take at the Chinese man. ]

--China. [ And then he's sort of out of things to say for the moment. ]

Well. I suppose you've heard my broadcast, then?
