25 Souls [Voice Post]

[soul_dissonance]

... Still no good, huh?
Oi. Didn't the scientists get what they needed? Then, what's the hold up? I still can't transform. Che. This sucks...

At least I can breath again... Thanks for bringing some of that tea over to the apartment, Yamamoto. It was a help. Though it can't be very easy to put something like that together, huh?

Maybe I'll try to drag a few of the others along with me by the time that opening ceremony comes along as a show of my thanks. I'm sure that I'm not the only one that is starting to feel the cabin fever around here.

Speaking of... If anyone is out in the city, then I'd like to ask some of you to keep an eye out for some new arrivals for me.
One of them is Chrona. Some of you might remember seeing her around before. Come on, Ace. The least you and the others can do is try to make up your damn minds. Hn... Short, pinkish hair, skinny as a rail and dressed in black. Dunno if Ragnarok would be with her now or not... At lot of things seemed different than before. Hm. Maka, I heard that you were out looking for her. Any luck yet?

The other is Death the Kid. It sounds like he decided to show his face around here again. Funny, because I thought the lack of stupid symmetry here would have sent him crawling back to Shibusen for good. ...Anyway, he's a bit of a standout and a freak. Primmed and pressed shinigami dressed in a black suit. His hair is black too and has three white stripes that go across it on one side. Just, uh... don't emphasis on that too much to his face. Maybe you can help him find his Weapon too, while you're at it.

[He yawns] Not sure what happened before with that earthquake from before... but I hope it isn't a sign of things to come. Otherwise, I'll be pretty pissed off if this week just becomes the calm before the storm. Very uncool.

[There is a pause, and then Soul starts humming along to the melody of a song. The sound of music playing through a set of headphones can be overheard before the transmission cuts out.]

[♪ We'll show you / Can't handle us / So cool, baby scandalous ♫]

[[ooc Note: Chrona is referred to as a girl this time around to fit with what Soul would know (or at least remember) from canon. Uh... sorry if it sounds awkward compared to before. Also, he got a MP3 player from the scientists, so feel free to rag on him for his taste in music.]]

Scandalous?

[Voice]

[nummeh-souls.livejournal.com]

Nn?

[Another minute passes by, and then the music gets paused.]

Sorry. Did you say something?

Re: [Voice]

[quirky-sitar.livejournal.com]

Heard you singing!

[Voice]

[nummeh-souls.livejournal.com]

Haa?

You've got to be kidding. That was just the MP3 Player that the scientists dropped off.

Re: [Voice]

[quirky-sitar.livejournal.com]

They gave you music!?

[mean-left-hook.livejournal.com]

You have an electronic device that works?

[Voice]

[nummeh-souls.livejournal.com]

While it lasts, anyway.

It seems to have a working battery. But when it finally runs out of juice, then there will probably be no way to recharge it easily in this place.

Re: [Voice]

[mean-left-hook.livejournal.com]

That's no good.

If I wasn't limited in this place due to that stupid chip, I could do something about the lack of electricity.

[Voice]

[nummeh-souls.livejournal.com]

Well, the high school has the only working generator so far. You can thank someone like Bulma for that.

That's why I said that it wouldn't be easy, not that it wouldn't be possible.

So... on that note, what kind of abilities do you have normally? You look like a pretty normal guy from here.

[Voice]

[mean-left-hook.livejournal.com]

I am a pretty normal guy, but I'll be the first to say that appearances are deceiving more often than not.

Saying I have the ability directly, is probably a bit off target.
My Persona has the ability to use magic, it's strength lies in the ability to manipulate electricity.
If I could summon Polydeuces, I'm pretty sure I could jumpstart almost any generator or power facility.

[mrbaseballfan.livejournal.com]

Got a little music, Soul?

I hope you have some Jazz stashed away somewhere.

[Voice]

[nummeh-souls.livejournal.com]

I do now. Call it an early Christmas present from the scientists. Heh.

I'll share if I'm feeling generous.

[Voice]

[mrbaseballfan.livejournal.com]

Lucky! Was it something you owned before?

[Voice]

[nummeh-souls.livejournal.com]

Yeah.

I had a bunch of different stuff back home, but not many of them were fancy like this. ...I'm kinda grateful.

[prodigal-axe.livejournal.com]

I saw.. wait. Her? Why did I think Chrona was a guy?

I see you're talking to Aki. He's a good guy, new to this place though.

Wait, earthquake? Uh. I bet I slept through that. I've done it before.

[Voice] Because the scientists like to mess with your head, Shinji.

[nummeh-souls.livejournal.com]

It gets... hard to tell sometimes. Don't worry about it. ...Is she still doing all right?

Oh, so that's him, huh? Seems like it.

Man, you must sleep as hard as a rock, Shinji. I thought that something shook me up late on Monday. Though... I didn't think that it was an earthquake until I picked up on a few of the other transmissions.

Re: [Voice] Because the scientists like to mess with your head, Shinji.

[prodigal-axe.livejournal.com]

Like that Bridget kid I know? He looks just like a girl.

... it's gonna be tough with him, like with Minato. He ain't used to not having his powers.

Tch. Did this happen during the afternoon? That's when I get my sleep. Not today, cause I'm fixing the bar.

[Voice]

[nummeh-souls.livejournal.com]

Wait... That's a guy?! Damn. You could have fooled me.

Hmm... So, he's someone who minds being chipped, huh? ...It almost makes me want to ask you what it's like to have this Persona thing, but... I know better than to do something like that.

No idea. I think it happened sometime during the night. I can remember it still being very dark in the apartment then.

Re: [Voice]

[prodigal-axe.livejournal.com]

It sure fooled Johnny. Hahaha.

Yeah. He's got no reason to dislike his power, so he minds, like most of the people around here.

...Not gonna bite your head off for a question.

Now, if you get into stupid assumptions like 'you should want your power' and 'your power shouldn't go to waste,' yeah, you should know better.

But why not ask him? He likes having one.

[circleinsand.livejournal.com]

You can't use your powers...?

Um, well...I... I wanted to... I wanted to ask you about that...

[Voice]

[nummeh-souls.livejournal.com]

It's a little complicated.

...? I'm listening. What's up?

[circleinsand.livejournal.com]

Ragnarok is being really quiet... Even when it's dark, I can't hear him.

[Voice]

[nummeh-souls.livejournal.com]

Has he appeared at all? That's weird...

Right now, the scientists have managed to keep everyone's powers controlled. It was one of their ways of... uh... making a "bargaining chip" for themselves. Hopefully it won't last though.

But Chrona, you... probably have that chip inside your body. You won't be able to use your Weapon until you're able to get that thing removed.

[combiplay.livejournal.com]

Haha, it was no problem; hey, feel better, okay?

[Voice]

[nummeh-souls.livejournal.com]

Heh. You've got it!
