[ Hi, Network. It’s your resident flyboy, once again broadcasting to you from the sky - this time directly from an F-22 cockpit. So he’s got his helmet on and there’s a lot of background noise as he yells over the sound of engines. ]

Okay, so.

Anyone here tried getting a tattoo? Beyond our extremely fashionable government given ones, I mean. [ Wryly. ]

What happens to it?

I mean - we port in, we port out, Force knows I’ve done that enough times to be sick of it. But my question is - does the tattoo stay? Like- does it just disappear between being ported in and out again? ‘Cause I kind of want one but also I feel it would be real irritating if I had to get re-inked every time the porter decided to fuck with me.

I mean. I don’t even know if this body is the same one I first ported in with. I’ve gone back home, what, three times now? Four? Do I just reset every time? Does this body age, at all?

Wait - would the nanites just fuck up my tattoo anyway?

... Maybe we should start petitioning the government to see if they’ll give us nanite-based tattoos just to get around the existential crisis. That sounds like a good waste of time.

[ There’s a pause, and then: ]

Besides that, sounds like there’s some weird shit going down again. Anyone else find something that shouldn’t be here, beyond the ones I’ve already seen on the network?

[Video of a young man in a dark blue hoodie sits at a computer, scratching his head as he leans back and looks at the feed.]

Okay, so, I’m new here, I know that, but I am curious about those who have been here a while. Why is it no place but Jeopardy has ghosts? And have any of you seen anything yet?

Which brings me to that place outside to Web Mistress Cathedral. I’m pretty sure I didn’t see it when I was exploring the area before, but there it was today. I must have got turned around or something...

[he runs his hand through his hair a moment, head tilting as he considers something.] It’s got a graveyard to it. Looks like a old mortuary or something. I’m thinking of checking it out, if anyone is interested?

Let me know. And let me know what your thoughts are on the lack of ghosts in the area. I’m looking for theories to research.

[he leaned forward to switch off the video]

[Video turns on to show Riku sitting on the curve of what might be a palm tree at the beach of Heropa.]

So, I don't know if this is usual for this place, but for some reasons I got my old wooden practice sword sent by the government this morning. It's… an interesting reminder, to say the least.

[He grimaces slightly because well… the last time he saw that sword was when he left it behind for Sora to use in then-Hollow Bastion.]

But anyway, that's not the only thing that showed up from home!

[He angles the camera up, to show the star-shaped fruits that are hanging from the tree that he is sitting on.]

These are called paopu, they are from my home world. Back there, we have a legend surrounding them… it says that if two people share one of these, they'll remain connected to one another forever… no matter what happens.

[He turns the camera back, smiling softly.]

So… if you have someone special in your life, you should pick up one of these to share.

[Then his smile turns a little more mischievous.]

Don't worry, Sora… Kairi. I'm definitely bringing one home for you guys.

[He's about to shut off the recording, but then gets distracted when someone behind him starts shouting promotions of Joe's Diner and their Destiny Pizza down the streets – his face falling into a grimace of horror and annoyance.]

…They put paopus on pizza!? Seriously? That's just–

[Riku doesn't even have words for just how much he considers this near-blasphemous.

You Don't Just Put A Paopu On Pizza.

…Or into any other meal, for that matter. Excuse him, he probably needs to go and give this Joe a piece of his mind.

Riku out(?)]
