Capsule 012 💊 (video)
[July 16th, 2016.
An average summer day in the city of Nonah, North Carolina. Somewhat cloudy, with the sun peaking out through those clouds stubbornly as it attempts to break through the stratus. Nothing too remarkable about it, really. But then again, when does any day really seem remarkably different than the last?
But today was special. At least...Kaneda and Tetsuo thought it was special. It’s not often that the boys kept secrets for too long--Kaneda had quite literally a big mouth, and Tetsuo’s pride often came before everything else. It was only by mutual code of honour that they’d actually kept their lip sealed, and with over months of hard work and deals to be made, weekends spent oddly missing from the house.
Nonah 05 might have caught on...but other than that…
Nothing comes of it until July 16th, mid-day, when the feed to the comm clicks on to show Kaneda frantically trying to adjust it to sit properly on something.]
Just -give- me a second, would ya? I know how to make the thing sit just right!
Then do it already!
Noooo patience...no wonder why you’re such a--oh, it’s on? Tetsuo, it’s on!
About damn time... [He moves back, smirking darkly at Kaneda.] Thought I was gonna die of boredom first! So, anyway. We got something to say, so listen up!
[Kaneda backs up to give the screen room to pan out, showing them in front of...well some place in Nonah. There’s a Benny’s to one side, and an office complex connected to the other. If that doesn’t narrow it down, feel free to just chalk it up to ‘the city’. In front of them? A giant, almost warehouse-looking building with a sheet draped over the top of it, just under where the boys are standing.
Now what could they possibly be up to?]
Oi, Nonah! And anyone else out there, actually. You’ll never guess what we did.
[Now, Tetsuo's grinning, turning his head enough to catch that sheet in his peripheral vision.] How about we show them?
[Kaneda says nothing, but takes a few steps back and gestures out his arms for Tetsuo to continue.]
[The sheet billows upwards, then slides away in one seamless motion. Only once it's fully removed does Tetsuo let go of his telekinetic grasp on it, leaving it someone else's problem on the ground when he turns his full attention back to the camera.
And in its absence, words reveal, showing a rather hodgepodge, if homebrew logo. “Neo Tokyo” stands out in bold, white English lettering, with red kanji almost paint splattered diagonally across it, all a part of the sign. With hands on his hips, Kaneda looks up at it with the utmost pride, even if the rest of the building had...well, it was a work in progress to say the least. The outside, however, was sturdy and pretty big. Reliable.]
Looks like Nonah’s got a new business. Started by...oh, that’s right.
Us.
[Note: in the post, Red is Kaneda, Black is Tetsuo. You’ll get replies from both Kaneda and Tetsuo, as well!]

I think it's perfect for you guys. Neo Tokyo... it's your guys' place.

[It had to be named what it is. It had to open on this day. These are both things that mean this place can be nothing else but theirs.
No one can take it away. No one can claim it. It's theirs. Despite the dark associations with the date, this is enough to put Tetsuo in a really good mood.]
Arcade was getting a little small for me, anyway... this is more like it.
his face in the icon is so refreshed it breaks my heart
... ... Are you happy with it?
[It's a tentative question.]
I get to use it so rarely but it's one of my favorites
[He looks back at the building, then to the side, probably at Kaneda... Then to the camera. His tone sounds vaguely incredulous, like he can't believe he's saying this.]
Yeah... I think I am.

I'm really happy to hear that, Tetsuo-san. Congratulations.
