[An uncertain looking Red fidgets on the screen - even now, she still doesn't quite know what she's doing with this device; but...]

Was... Anyone hurt last night? I heard howling.

[Gender changes? What gender changes? Was she supposed to be noticing that?]

[Faith's changed - ~~ignore the lack of icons, please~~- and trying not to look pissed about it; still, too many people doing that already.

She tries to act like her casual self instead, leaning against the wall of her apartment - still lean physique showing off the curves of her muscles more readily than her old body had. Not that she's noticed or anything.

Still, her voice is a little dry when she asks her question, running a hand through the far too short hair..]

Anyone know what a guy can do for fun around here?

- Strange Wave of Sex Changes Turns McKinley Zoo Into Unexpected Breeding Grounds
“Animals at the McKinley Zoo and aquarium have been unusually frisky since some swapped sexes this monday” reports amused zookeeper and animal trainer Lindsay Frinkle. “After intially exploring their new genetalia, plenty of them got straight down to business.” The zoo attempted to separate some of the breeding pairs, before winding up with more expectant animals than they are prepared to handle. However, breaking up the mating party nearly proved fatal for one keeper, who was mauled by the zoo’s (currently) male polar bear.

Domesticated livestock in Sector 7 have also been affected, with farmers scrambling to manage their animal husbandry before nature takes its own course. Dairy prices could see a significant rise in the coming week.

So,

[That's Jack, still sounding very male, and sounding very amused -and curious, not at all creeperish, it's not his fault everything exploded into interesting overnight!]

Those who find themselves of a different persuasion, now — what was the first thing you did upon finding out?

WHOEVER THE FUCK IS RESPONSIBLE FOR THIS BULLSHIT BETTER PRAY I NEVER GET MY HANDS ON THEM.
THIS IS NOT FUCKING FUNNY.
THIS IS LESS FUNNY THAN THAT CANDY CORN BULLSHIT STUNT GOD DAMMIT.
I JUST KEEP GETTING REMINDED OVER AND OVER WHY THE ENTIRE UNIVERSE SEEMS TO BE HELLBENT ON MAKING MY LIFE AS MISERABLE AS POSSIBLE IN WHATEVER CRAZY WAYS THEY CAN MANAGE.

...

SCATTY, I NEED YOU TO COME TO MY APARTMENT AS SOON AS FUCKING POSSIBLE.

[The NV flickers on to show a brown haired man in his late 20’s.]

Now I’m not really up on all this but we’re sure the core isn't some sort of cosmic cube that’s making someone’s nightmares come to life each night? [he pauses for a few seconds.] I realize there’s little change of anyone understanding what I said even if you were from where I am. I really don’t want to have to deal with one of these things. Believe me the last one I ran into was nothing but trouble.

[He leans back his chair face falling out of frame]

I guess I should be happy I missed the involuntarily sex change that seems to be going around. I can take getting relocated at random, having to figure of bra sizes now that sounds stressful.

I don’t think I've had a chance to relax since May of 45. What do people do for fun around here anyway?

[Angeal’s NV comes on as he sets a box down, marker in hand to write what was in it as he speaks to it, a smile crossing his face, but it has a melancholy mood to it.]

I suppose when people disappear, no news is better than hearing news. [As much as he wants to hope, anyway. This is the second time he has had to box up the room of someone he cares about here, but at least this time there wasn’t a body to identify beforehand.] As far as I can tell, it means they have gone home.

Or are otherwise out of our reach, yes. [Sephiroth’s voice is quiet, subdued as always from a man who keeps all emotion to himself. He sets another box next to Angeal’s, and starts to tape both tops shut while the other man labels the contents.] It needn’t be a bad thing.

[But the loss this time is closer to him than Angeal, though they had all liked the girl. It makes him wonder too if Genesis is to lose someone next.]

No, I don’t think it so at all- Miss Himawari will be fine back home. [He looks up at the other from his kneeled position, reassuring as he had earlier, that things would be okay for her, as it would be for them no matter how much they would miss her.]

I know. [They both know. He rakes a hand through his hair, re-tying the ponytail and letting it fall against his back. Then, head slightly cocked to the side, he reaches down to pick up Angeal’s PHS.] Did you mean to turn this on?

Oh, yes. [He nods, then looks away from the other man to address the camera again.] Miss Himawari is gone, unfortunately, so our condolences to those who knew her as we did. I’m sure the Greeter program will miss her just as much as the rest of us, but hopefully I can ease some with that, being the new guy on board.

[Sephiroth shifts, moving around the boxes and kneeling next to Angeal so that they can both be in the frame.] And to that note, I suppose -- at least for the time being -- that I will be assuming Miss Himawari’s responsibilities in regard to the program. To those that may be interested in the Greeters -- in a leadership capacity or not -- I welcome you to contact me, either here or privately.

We’ll both be around, if you need us. [A smile, and Angeal reaches for the NV to turn it off, with an aside to Sephiroth as he does.] We might as well get the other room finished, since we are already at it...

[ At first, there's no audio -- just a particularly gruesome video repeated, over and over without sound. At some point during the broadcast, a voice like age-old gravels begins its narration. ]

Human nature at it's finest.

[ The drunks falls and retches as the door shuts. The one speaking sounds speculative at best, and indifferent at worst. ]

One can only wonder at the purpose of such a display. For what reason were we created if our inclination is towards destruction?

[ As he speaks, the video shows the Unhinged tearing the man apart. ]

Which is the greater monster -- the creature of the Dark? Or is it the individuals who provided it with its prey?
