[Nanaya's gotten into a few fights since getting here. Obviously. However, though he very much appreciates getting do-overs if he finds a battle unsatisfying, he has to admit it also takes some of the fun out of it. It reminds him all too much of the time he left the world of the living. No fun in killing those who have passed away. No will to live in them. Though he still very much prefers going out and having his own kind of fun than genuinely interacting with the tower's other residents, even Nanaya can have a taste for variety now and then.]

Death's a funny thing. Every moment of fear and anxiety anyone has ever gone through is rooted, if not directly caused, by it. Every time you turn on the lights at night, and every time you decide to close your eyes and ignore something to live just another day, that's your thanatophobia at work.

[Subtle. Not like it's the first thing any blatant psychopath says in the comm. Then again, Nanaya doesn't much care about what people know or don't know about him here.]

If that really forms such a large part of us, then couldn't you say we're effectively half of our own selves just by being unable to be truly killed? How you round it up is your own business, but that's almost like not living at all.

Aa... Although, if you're going to consider yourself dead already, then you might as well consider this some sort of hell while you're at it.

[That made all kinds of nonsense, but as always, Nanaya's much more interested in the poetic beauty of the situation, rather than the actual facts. Worth noting, though, that this isn't some attempt at standing out or intimidating others. Nanaya's genuinely intrigued, and very much interested in what others have to say.]

Wanted: tailor to make several wedding tuxedos.

Payment can be arranged.

[Yep. That's it. Secretly Reno is embarrassed he even has to go on the network and ask, but since the beans were spilled he figured to get it over with. What he's got in mind is something like this.]

[Specifically, he's in room 4-18! A very frantic bear is looking at the screen]

I-I don't like what this letter is saying! There's no way that happened! I remember bearing it all for sensei!! So hey, Yosuke, Chie-chan, anyone! Can you hear me? ... M-maybe my nose was just acting up and I accidentally went somewhere to the wrong area...

[He takes a deep breath, but leans too far backwards, still holding onto the.] AH!

[And he goes bouncing backwards out the open door before slamming into the wall and groaning] Uwaa...

[OOC: Accompanying action/log post is here if you prefer!]

So, I have a quick announcement to do.

For people who know Aleph, it's his birthday tomorrow. His first one to be exact, so a 'happy birthday' to him tomorrow or anything like that would be awesome.

That's all.

[It takes a moment for Eiki to adjust the camera just right, so her face has a rather extreme close up. Once she is done she sits back in a chair. She folds her hands together and places them ontop of the desk. She carries herself rather well, one could easily assume her to be some sort of statesman.]

Good evening everyone. My name is Shiki Eiki Yamaxanadu and I am a recent arrival to this tower. I have been informed that the best way of gaining information about this location is through the network, so I am here to as the general public a few questions. I would appreciate as much information as possible, but whatever can be offered is fine.

For those who can assist me I will be grateful towards.

First, what is known about this tower? Those who run it? How did we arrive and what are these collars?

Second, how many people have currently been brought here? How many different places are represented? From what I can tell quite a few "worlds" are represented.

Third, what are the general rules of this place? And I don't mean rules as in you may do this, and not do that, but more how does this place function.

Thank you for your time.
