kaballin[The video opens up on the familiar scene of the little patio area by the pond, except this time all the furniture has been cleared out. Instead there's a bunch of chainlink fencing lashed together with baling wire, rope and who knows what else, to create something that roughly resembles a cube.
Sort of.]
So it's been pretty boring around here huh? Thought we could use some entertainment to tide us over before we're attacked by killer butterflies or zombie plants or someshit.
And apparently I gotta do all this shit myself. Figures.
[The camera pans from Kabal's masked face to two cages each containing a very angry service bot, one that's been splashed with red paint, and the other with blue.]
Gonna make these two fight to the death. Taking bets now, minus one-thirty on red, positive one-ten on blue.
Just doing my part to make Anchor a better place.

saunteredvaguelydownwardsDo you know that plants respond to being threatened?
[Apropos of nothing, Crowley is here to give everyone horticulture advice.]
Honestly. Go and look at the apple trees and see if you can tell which one I've been talking to. I'll give you a tip - it's not daring to let the other ones outshine it. That's science right there.

Feb. 13th, 2021 01:12 ambakudan_bambino[The feed cuts on to Gokudera in the kitchens, a bright smile on his face. He's wearing an apron and the air seems a bit smoky, but that's pretty standard for him.]
Takeshi I made you a gift!
Don't laugh... I know messed up on it a bit.
[The camera is tilted down on his device, and he's showing off a loaf of bread that is completely burnt on the outside. If he were to cut it on camera, then the lovely other folks inhabiting the dome would see that it's all but raw on the inside.]
It wasn't supposed to turn out so dark...

redwinekindofgirlSo... few of us here have come from other places, right?
[She tucks her hair behind her ear and a few of the shorter strands fall forwards again. Annoyed, she puffs them out of her face with a quick exhale.]
I guess that doesn't matter, really-- Would you want to forget it all?
[Julie pauses, then adds some clarification.]
Where I've been, people didn't remember stuff after they left. Sometimes they'd come back and not remember they'd been there. Would you want that, or... would you want to remember?

Oct. 13th, 2020 06:51 pmwrittendestinyI might be tempting fate by doing something relaxing, but--
[Poison trails off for a moment, muttering something just out of earshot of what the device is able to capture. While what she's saying can't quite be made out, it sounds scolding.]
I'm making some bread in the kitchens. Um. If anyone wants to join me I can personalise a roll for them.
[It's not too often that Poison actually offers out her company like that, but... she's feeling the need for some living companionship very keenly right now.]
Or we can just talk. That's fine, too.

bakudan_bambino [The video cuts on and it's in the arrival room. It seems that whoever has turned this device on is having a hard time focusing on it, until the camera is moved to show Gokudera. He's looking relatively well, all in one piece, but clutching at his chest. There may be smoke coming out of his mouth, which is usual considering how many cigarettes he goes through. If you watch the video long enough you may see that there is no cigarette in his hand. Maybe he put it out? Maybe he's actually exhaling smoke. He's not talking about it. Just says:]
Takeshi. I'm back.
[He's clearly struggling, but again, there seems to be no visible wounds on him. If he got attacked by the zombies, there's no evidence, there's no blood. Just a teenager looking grumpy (as usual), and sweaty. He's in a lot of pain, ok?]
@KABALLSDEEP (but still public if anyone wants to chat about death and revival)
So... I didn't kill anyone...
Just set myself on fire and I'm back. No uh... [He's hoarse. Smoke in the throat, maybe?]
Metal parts. Just me and everything I arrived on Anchor with. [He's still wearing his collar, too, even though he had Yamamoto Takeshi take it off him and carry it about after his body turned to ash.]
So, got any questions? People don't stay dead, apparently.

Sep. 23rd, 2020 06:32 pmeatdavesbabiesthis place needs to slow down. it’s like a horror movie but it doesn’t know what the fuck it wants to be. it’s mixed it’s generic zombie chiller in with psychological horror in a dumb peanut butter and dogshit combo.
but enough about that shit. have you guys seen the bots lately? they’re acting like they went for the cheap oil and are drunk off their asses. I want to gather a few of them up, take their asses apart and see what’s going on with them. anyone up for it?

saunteredvaguelydownwards[Crowley is in one of the rooms up in the newly opened area of Anchor. Not too much of the place itself is visible, but there's a long, thick streak of dried blood against the wall behind him and the park is recognisable in the background.]
I'm starting to doubt that this place was ever meant to be for any kind of refuge. Thoughts?
[There are less zombies up here and he's a fan of that, and he doesn't appear to be carrying a weapon... though there might be something in his hand off-camera. He tips his head forewards, snake-like eyes flashing over his sunglasses.]
I get it, this probably isn't news to anyone, but I like to check I'm not going crazy now and then.

Aug. 16th, 2020 10:49 pmsuicideprototypeIt seems I've ended up in a rather interesting place somehow.
Well, since we'll be spending the foreseeable future together, how about we try to get to know each other a little? My name is Ritsu Shikishima, and due to various circumstances, I have no world to return to (if it's okay, I'd rather not talk about it). And so, I can't say I'm really in a rush to get out of here or anything.
What about the rest of you? What were your homes like? Or, if that's too depressing a topic for some of you and you'd rather not dwell on the past, how about some questions to break the ice?
If you were to describe yourself with an idiom, which would you pick?
What do you like to do in your free time?
What's your favorite location here?
You can answer any or none of the above, or tell me something else about yourself you'd rather talk about instead. I don't mind.
Anyway, I'm looking forward to getting along with everyone here.

birdical[Good morning, Anchor! There's a gargantuan, mechanical spider outside, a surprise obstacle course inside, and hitting the communicators bright and early — as bright as it gets in the colony — is a transmission from Anchor's Most Kissable Bird (sorry Starscream, maybe you'll win next year).
From the look of it, she's in the intimacy lounge, having made herself comfy on one of the beds: there's a glass of wine, soft lighting, and... some books and papers spread out around her, the thin sheets contrasting sharply with the silken ones that cover the bed. She seems to be doing a lot of writing, but what about? It is a mystery.
She finagles with the camera for another second, trying to prop it up before her so she can look into it while she writes. She gives it a smile as she leans forward, lying on her chest, propping up her chin with her hand; her magenta eyes stare through the device, cutting right to anyone who takes a gander at her message as though she could see them all along.]
I have two questions for you who would answer. What is it you like about yourself? [A beat, possibly for dramatic weight.] What is it you like about who in Anchor you like most?
[Her smile tightens with an almost mischievous air.]
Be truthful. I am eager to hear what you will say, and who you will say it about.
[And with a wink, she ends the transmission. Have a good day, Anchor — she'll be waiting on the line.]

numerouno[Grainy photographs are being uploaded to the network with an uncharacteristic lack of commentary. Some shots are slightly oversaturated, overlit by the steady beam of a flashlight.
The first lot depicts a few of the many glowing crystals, both big and small, that can be found inside the caverns that the sinkhole uncovered. The next set shows an oddity found in the deeper sections of the underground tunnels: boiling ponds of something or other. A little later, a third series appears: the cave walls have become unnaturally smooth.
Finally, one last upload rolls in: a curved, artificial wall has been captured from a number of angles. These shots come with a brief caption:]
look what i found
[Scaramouche knows the devastating potential of loud noises better than most; the vibrations of his voice alone could cause a newly exposed cave system like this to collapse, not to mention disturb all of the creatures living in it. He is not taking chances.]

Jul. 13th, 2020 03:10 pmcircumitus[The following post has been filtered from un:bearly.bewitched AKA Elleru for obvious reasons:]
been living with a roommate for a little over ½ year and shes great and beautiful and makes food sometimes and says really nice things but just not entirely sure what she wants yet
sometimes all she wants to do is hang out in bed and sings to me while brushing my hair and it felt nice but no ones ever done that kind of thing before so not sure what to make of it
tho a couple months ago she said things like she has "wanted more than friendship" and "if you want to be with me you need only say so" but does that mean what it sounds like or is it reading too much into the situation??
asked to take it slow didnt know what else to say in case it was wrong
mind you she was naked when she said some of these things
but we were in the spa so ofc she was naked this is relevant
anyway
cant tell if shes pissed now bc recently started noticing things like a rat stuck in the drawer and someone definitely put it in there on purpose
the cat sure as hell wouldnt do something like that hed probably just eat it on the spot
[At least Rey doesn't get squeamish, so she was able to just let the poor critter go in the garden level WHERE IT BELONGS because what the hell, Elleru.]
today theres this big ass dead animal on the front door of our room
dont see her around but pretty sure it was her bc theres a paper flower left next to it that she usually makes so unless one of you fuckers out there fess up to playing games its probably her
at any rate is this a threat??? made a mistake?? she isnt human so maybe its possible to have just interpreted her signals the wrong way? or maybe shes mad about being asked to take whatever we have going on slow??
any advice is appreciate
[Sorry, Anchor. You're dealing with the most Useless Lesbian ever.]

[That much, it would seem, is completely obvious... but the young man on the screen isn't addressing his audience when he says it. He looks like he's just stepped out of the decontamination area after retrieving his belongings and more or less booking it away, and he doesn't look like he's impressed with any of this despite the dark sunglasses concealing his eyes.]
Look, this is getting ridiculous-- and don't tell me, people here haven't figured out a way to get the-- Somewhere back home either?
[He pulls in a breath, sharply and through his teeth, and grimaces.]
At least tell me there's a decent bar.

[The boy points to a leather half choke collar around his neck. The kitten on his shoulder yawns, tucks its face against the collar, and one of its legs hang off, the flames gushing out of its ears doing absolutely nothing to Gokudera's neck.]
This keeps shocking me, and it can't be removed. It only started when I arrived on Anchor, so I think the travel here is causing it to ma- [He winces gently, and the kitten gets up and then hops off and out of the camera's view.] malfunction.

Jul. 2nd, 2020 09:04 pmkaballinWell Anchor, you snooze you lose. Turns out the first person to be killed got axed by the fucking maze. I'm incredibly disappointed in all of you.
But we do have some loopholes that can be exploited for your benefit, cuz I'm such a swell guy.
So for starters, I am a man of my word, but I can't exactly give the prize to the room itself which means I can either give it to the dead guy, or we can collectively agree this little contest of mine is still going.
Secondly, he's kind of a robot. So I don't think this even really counts. I mean he's absolutely dead. Or was anyway. But that seems like a technicality. Void where prohibited and all that.
Someone convince me they're still gonna do a murder and I'll keep this swank phone up for grabs.

Yo, I'm Takeshi Yamamoto, are there any places good for sword training?
[He has been exploring but he misses the dojo where he usually trains. He has one more question but first, a sparrow who looks to be made of rain flutters around his head while a pup with three short swords with blades appearing rain made as well pops up to lick his face. He laughs.]
Oh, Jiro and Kojiro say hi too. Does anyone need any help with projects or jobs? [He would like to keep training but also get involved in helping around Anchor any way he can.]
