“Analyze every tester in town”? Are you kidding me?! Like I’m going to do some ridiculous job like that-! Just give me my old job back already, ribbit!

Like I’m even going to…ugh, what happened to this town anyway?! J-just put it back the way it was, already!

[Attempted drone filter, but for obvious reasons it fails.]

H-hey, did everyone else lose the abilities they got back from Mayfield? I can’t use any magic…

Yeah, it looks like we gotta start from scratch. AGAIN.

[hopping-mad.livejournal.com]

Isn't that just peachy! Are we really supposed to get used to this?!

[weiss-tank.livejournal.com]

I don't think so. I'm hoping this is just temporary like the whole Westport thing.

[hopping-mad.livejournal.com]

I hope it is too, still this sucks. I thought the whole Westport ordeal was over.

[weiss-tank.livejournal.com]

Nothing's really over in this place.

[hopping-mad.livejournal.com]

I'm starting to see that. Did you go outside yet?

[weiss-tank.livejournal.com]

Yeah. I'm a god damn pipe certification analyst. I had to find the stupid things.

[hopping-mad.livejournal.com]

Do you even know how to do something like that? These jobs are just stupid...

[weiss-tank.livejournal.com]

Not a bit. I'm kinda making it up as I go along.

[hopping-mad.livejournal.com]

I'm sure that's all you can really do. Hopefully nothing too terrible will come out of it.

[weiss-tank.livejournal.com]

I hope so too. Good luck with what you go stuck with.

[puffinparadise.livejournal.com]

I didn't exactly have special abilities in the first place, but I did lose my pets and my normal clothes.

[hopping-mad.livejournal.com]

...So we lost everything we had, huh?

[puffinparadise.livejournal.com]

Basically. Is magic the only thing you lost?

[hopping-mad.livejournal.com]

That's right, I gained back a little bit of my magic before this happened. And it would've come in handy right about now.

[puffinparadise.livejournal.com]

I'm guessing the town is trying to disable us so that anything we did have wouldn't mess with their games.

[hopping-mad.livejournal.com]

Makes sense, I guess. If this is a game, is there any way to win it?

[hugs-arent-free.livejournal.com]

My abilities are gone as well. And Phantasma. I hope this isn't permanent.

[hopping-mad.livejournal.com]

What's Phantasma?

And yeah, looks like it happened to everyone then. I hope it's not permanent either or else we're going to be in serious trouble. More trouble then we're already in, that is.

[hugs-arent-free.livejournal.com]

Phantasma is my frog. He assists me.

I'm sure they will return them once they have sufficiently tortured us. Then we can go back to torturing each other.

[hopping-mad.livejournal.com]

How cute~ I have a tadpole familiar myself.

Lovely, just lovely. I'd like to torture the one who came up with this great idea.

[hugs-arent-free.livejournal.com]

A tadpole? Muu. That sounds interesting. Will it eventually become an amphibian?

I'm sure there are a lot of people who would be willing to help you with that.

[hopping-mad.livejournal.com]

Nah, he's always been a tadpole. I don't mind him like that though, he's strong enough as he is now.

Maybe we should devise something? We don't need powers to wreck a little havoc~

[hugs-arent-free.livejournal.com]

As much as I dislike this place, I don't cause havoc for havoc's sake. Only if someone pays me.

[hopping-mad.livejournal.com]

Aw, how boring. Do you make some kind of business out of it?

[hugs-arent-free.livejournal.com]

If I can. Before I came here I worked with a mafia family.

[legberjack.livejournal.com]

A real goddamn shame.

On the other hand, the new has a few advantages, you know?!

[hopping-mad.livejournal.com]

Advantages such as...?

[legberjack.livejournal.com]

Never worked inside these shitty systems before, not with something I'd enjoy. Shit should be interestin' for a couple days.

[hopping-mad.livejournal.com]

...What job were you assigned exactly? [Interested Eruka is interested.]

[legberjack.livejournal.com]

Me? I report the poor bastards that open their mouths too much.

Or don't.

My word against theirs.

[hopping-mad.livejournal.com]

[Kind of a pause on Eruka's end. While she could care less about who this guy reports or not, it might be smart to watch her words.]

And have you been doing that job?

[legberjack.livejournal.com]

[Does trolling people and failing count?]

Kinda?
