[Someone looks rather....pleased with himself. Which depending on how well you know him will probably determine whether this is such a good thing or not, given how much of a brat Ed can be at times.]

Okay, I know I mentioned this idea before but now I've finally got everything signed off on it! Thanks to the Major.

[Which he really is grateful for. He just wishes he didn't have to work around the whole 'being a minor thing'. Ed gestures behind him to show a small little shop, not yet decorated but simple enough for what he intends.]

I'll probably need a bit yet to properly set things up but in a few days or so I should be good to go. Anyone who wants anything made or fixed, provided we have the materials, I should be able to help. Or Al. Not sure yet if he'll still want to keep with his animal job or not and there is school, but besides that we'll be around to help. Prices will probably depend on the item in question on a case by case basis and how much potential research might need to go into it with the materials.

[ooc: Reasons you really want Al instead of Ed fixing or making you anything. Seriously....I am so sorry for everyone before they learn this lesson.]

[A peculiar and alien humming of energy dominates the ambiance as the video cuts in, but not uncomfortably. In fact, if you let it slip past your attention it almost seems to rest in the back of your mind.

...rather hypnotically.]

Good evening.

[Hands folded in his lap, Revan sits facing the screen with a soft smile and a straight back as a multi-hued light washes over him. Besides directly where he's sitting his surroundings seem to be shrouded in darkness leaving his broadcasting location a mystery.]

For those of you that I have not had the pleasure of meeting, allow me to introduce myself. My name is Revan and I've come to you today with an offer as a fellow import.

When I arrived here, in this world, I found myself lost, afraid, and forced to depend on the charity of the local government to survive. [Despite his statement he keeps his tone polite and without bias. He's just stating a fact after all.]

Many of you came to this world with little more than the shirts on your back, trying to make your way in your new lives. As I did. I may be able to help with that.

If you've left something at home, something dear or necessary to your craft, well being or... [A slight sideways dip of his head.] your heroic pastimes... I am opening a small business with the intent of producing or reproducing items you may be without. Or if you simply have a need for a specific item that can't be satisfied anywhere else, chances are I can help with that too.

I will have a site up shortly for you to submit any orders or inquiries, but until then I'd be happy to answer any questions you might have about the services I offer. Or if you'd like to make an order now I can see what I can do. I only ask that you please include as much detail as possible and any specifications you would like included.

Thank you for your time.

[ The coffee Kaneki holds in his hand isn't very good. No wonder, it was free, so he didn't expect anything amazing. But drinking it reminds him just how good the coffee at Anteiku was. With a small nervous sigh, he finally starts the video feed and pulls the best smile he can.

A kid with an eye patch on his left eye appears. ]

Hello. I'm Ken Kaneki, 18 years old and I come from Tokyo, Japan. [ that looks like a nice introduction ] I guess I was brought in to be a hero, like some of you. Though, in my world superheroes exist only in books... [ he laughs, but it's a short laugher and it's not even a sincere one. ] I wonder if it's even going to be like in the books. It sounds too surreal.

[ He is still smiling though, and his uncovered eye looks down while Kaneki tries to figure out what else to say. No, he knows what to say, but how to say it...? ] The registration- when will it happen?

[ he needs to register. He has to.

After all, he is hungry.


Nope stop thinking about that, Kaneki ] Also, does anyone know where can I get good coffee? [ at least that might help a bit ] This one isn't so good. [ he lifts his cup ]

Alright, so I blipped out and I blipped back and - surprise! - human! Can't say I'm, uh...excited about this development, but...well. Here we are. Don't worry though, I'm pretty sure I've got this organic thing on lock. Maybe.

That sa-aid, I've got this other....ehm....problem. Difficulty. More of a confusion. I've received my work assignment - which THAT is a complaint for a whole other day - and I need some information. About children. Don't tell me WHAT they are, I know that. They're the little pupa forms of humans. But beyond that....I dunno. Someone help me out here, what do you do with them. Are they self-maintaining? Do they have sentience or does that come later?
