[ The video clicks on and it's the Doctor, grinning like a madman. He's wearing a pair of sunglasses that...kind of make him look stupid, but if that's the case, he doesn't recognize it. Instead, he gives the camera a little wave. ]

Hello there! Doctor Disco here, back from a brief vacation, glad to see that everybody got the forest thing sorted out. [ he's keeping his tone light and cheerful, probably to hide the fact that his brief vacation back home was SLIGHTLY SOUL CRUSHING and that his getting brainwashed in Peter Pan's forest was ALSO KIND OF SOUL CRUSHING. ]

Anyway, two things! First! Remember that bit a month or so ago where a lot of people swapped powers? Well, during the storming of the castle, I managed to poke around in the computer files and picked up some lovely info on the people who made that mess in the first place. They're the Cain Cabal and, surprising no one, they want immortality. [ the Doctor can't help but roll his eyes. When he speaks next, it's with the authority of someone who kind of messed up a lot of things by making someone immortal. ] Rule of thumb, any one who wants immortality doesn't deserve it. Rule of thumb two, just don't give people immortality to begin with, it never ends up well. Anyway, there's a lot more boring stuff about nanotech and the Porter so I'll just attach that in a different link.

Second! Clairvoyant! Hello there, me again, you were right about birds by the way, top marks! I wish you could have added in a little bit about the Fisher King but well, nobody's perfect.

Third! [ didn't he just say there were two things ] Mabel! Mabel, Mabel, Mabel. Remember how we were talking about the sonic screwdriver? Well, popped back home for a little bit, don't have it anymore, but I have the next best thing. [ And here, he taps the edges of his sunglasses with both hands, giving the camera a big, toothy ridiculous grin. ] Wearable tech. It's cutting edge, new technology, goes great with every outfit. Just watch...

[ The sunglasses make a little sonicy noise and the video turns off. Attached to this post, is a more Doctory write-up of this information from the power swap plot in December, complete with editorial comments from the Doctor, mostly along the lines of being sarcastic at the soldiers. ]

[It’s not immediately evident whether the face on screen is male or female--Yuri’s got long, pretty hair and the facial features are ambiguous enough to throw some doubt. But he’s voiced by Troy Baker so that clears up pretty fast, after he’s spent some time frowning at the camera in consternation.]

This thing’s kind of a pain in the ass to use, but I guess it could be pretty useful. If this is even working right now. I might as well be talking to myself for all I can tell.

Anyway. Not much to say. My name’s Yuri, and I need a sparring partner. Nothing fancy, just a friendly match. I’ve got to try out a couple of things. [Yuri grins, forgetting his annoyance with the communicator as he taps his sheathed sword against his shoulder. His expression suggests that ‘friendly’ and ‘potentially injurious’ are not mutually exclusive.] I’ll buy you a drink for the trouble.

[But a good fight should really be its own reward.]

Also, if anyone knows of any work in Maurtia Falls... [Yuri looks down at something, probably his file, eyebrow arching] Since I’ve got no idea what a ‘rap lyricist’ or a ‘raccoon’ is, I have a feeling this isn’t going to work out too well. But I’m a pretty good cook and I know my way around a fight, which seems like a good enough skillset for this town.

[He gives the communicator another dubious look.]

Bye…?

[ This is the third month in a row someone from Kaneki's world leaves. By now he sort of believes the Porter has a lot of fun fucking with him. ]

Touka Kirishima was ported out.

I will be keeping her cat. [ he has no idea what else to say, in all honesty. Complaining that this has been happening every month won't get him anywhere, and he honestly has to wonder if it's a good thing for them to even be in this world in first place. ]

I'm not even sure how to keep a cat like him, though. [ because the cat seems to hate everyone BASICALLY ]
