[The video flicks on and this time rather than looking like he's on the verge of death and wild eyed, Shouichi looks pretty dang sheepish. It's been two weeks... long enough for his pride to recover just enough for him to make this call.]
... Um, for everyone who replied to my last call a couple weeks ago, when I wasn't myself because of the fever and all that...
I just wanted to say thank you. And I'm really sorry. I really was out of it and I don't even remember 90% of what was going on, but looking back at my broadcast and trying to remember what little I can. I just... felt like putting out an apology.
And thank you for the concern and help. That was all. Ah, and thanks to those who went out to get that cure! Of course. [He tips his head in a small bow and ends the call.]
[Private video to Train]
I really appreciate what you did, coming to help me and all of that. I was... very ill. Let me know if there is something I can do to thank you for it, okay?
[Private video to Ichigo, found using the caller id from his prev. call]
I think I was the most out of it when you were trying to help me, so uh... just wanted to say thanks in particular. Not the best first impression either.... Uh... yeah. Thank you.
[Private video to Byakuran]
I know I already apologized to you, but... thanks for putting up with me.

Nov. 25th, 2011 11:49 pm[Somarium, have a panicked broadcast from one of those still severely ill and only getting worse, since he wasn't doing a great job of taking care of himself, so concerned with his roommate. He's clearly flushed, there are dark circles under his eyes and he's sweating and out of breath when the video feed flicks on. One of his lenses also appears to be cracked, but he's paying it no mind. He looks like he's in a darkened room as well, hunched close to the Dreamberry, speaking in hurried hush tones.]
S-Someone has to come help me... There is a man here, I don't know when he arrived, but he tries to kill me in my world and I can't get away from him. He's in my apartment and he's going to kill me!
T-They both want me dead, I know it. Y-Yamamoto-kun? Cavallone-san? Even Hibari-san or Gokudera-kun, one... one of you could stop him right?.. They are here.
You wouldn't let me die here like this, right?
[He suddenly jerks away from the feed, staring at something in terror and the line goes dead with no other warning.]
(( OOC: Shouichi is convinced Byakuran is various members of the Real Six Funeral Wreathes, particularly Kikyo right now. And he can't find Byakuran anywhere, believing him to have told them to kill him himself because of it. ))

Dream Effects: (Optional) A sense of adoration, but worry. Everything looks, smells, breathes of a festive Halloween mood
( Boys and girls of every age, wouldn't you like to see something strange? )
[The feed faded to black as the doll plucked at dying petals slowly while thinking what she could do. Then there was a groan and the sound of a hand groping around in the dark before the dreamberry was located.
Shouichi brought it to his face to scowl at the evidence that his dreams were just broadcast when he noticed just how much his hair was getting in his face. Any viewers would be able to plainly see what was just now dawning on the man though. He was still dressed as the ragdoll from the dream, long red hair falling over thin shoulders clad in a patchwork dress, just visible in the light cast by the Dreamberry in the dark room. Not to mention the lines of "stitching" over his face and the seeming make up of the costume.
A moment later and the feed shut off with a sudden click, Shouichi scrambling out of bed to verify his fears.]

Oct. 21st, 2011 12:06 am[The phone was set down a little too hard and flicks on to record. There is a skewed image on it's side of the red head's side, head cut off from view due to the orientation of the video. The image here though is not what's interesting, it's the audio. Though one may note the few light beer bottles beside the laptop that is also in view next to him... One may even be able to make out the flashing "You Lose" on the screen.]
You want my Halloween costume to be WHAT?
No. No no and no. Did I mention no?
I don't care if I lost the game, that's not fair!
-- Wait, who is Sally? Not that it matters since that is clearly a girl's name and I'm not going as a --
I know I lost Choice, but...!
B-Byakuran-san...... you're not really going to make me --
IS THAT A PICTURE OF HER?!
(( OOC: It's very possible that Byakuran himself may steal Shouichi's dreamberry to highjack replies, just forewarning! Also, this is the Sally in question~ ))

For anyone who knew him.... Spanner's gone. [The announcement is clearly not a happy one in tone and he sighs a little before continuing.] He tended to keep to himself, but he's strange in the way he still attracted people around himself. So, I just thought I'd let any friends he'd made know.
That's all.
[Text sent to all the Vongola+Dino]
Sorry guys. I was hoping Spanner and I could get some answers about how to get you all home, but... I'll just have to keep working and try and piece together what they have been offering us.
[Text sent to Byakuran]
I'll be home a little late.

Jun. 26th, 2011 08:20 pm[Distracted murmurs as the feed starts, Shouichi is staring out the window from the 17th floor of the Edennel Apartments in Somni as the dark rain pounds on the window panes.]I can't believe this, it's still coming down...
[Then louder and now directed at the camera. Shouichi looks a little... frazzled and more than worried.]
Has anyone seen Byakuran-san? He owns a flower shop in Espoir, white hair, purple eyes, a purple mark under the left one? I... I can't get a hold of him, but his name is still on my contact list. Please let me know if you've seen him or heard from him. I know people are probably looking for one another during this whole thing, but... just, thanks...
[Distractedly runs a hand through his unruly hair, anxious.]
Spanner. If you have ANY way to get out of your hotel and head here, it may be safer. I'm not sure the floor you're on is going to be high enough, but if this thing reaches the 17th floor here... I don't even want to think about that, but it's less likely than your hotel being flooded at least.
Anyone who is able actually, you should all head for higher ground. As high as you can get. The cryptic messages Somarium leaves for us generally prove at least partially true. Let's just hope this one isn't totally so...
But either way, this flood is serious.
[Filtered to the Vongola]
...Vongola, I hope you're all safe. If you need some place, here isn't necessarily the best option, but if it comes to it, I'll find some way to help and house you all if you can get here. I'm sure there has to be some abandoned or vacant rooms on the upper most floors of Edennel and given the situation, we can make use of them.
Just let me know. I know Cavallone-san and Hibari-san were staying in Espoir too... Just... Please check in.
[One more attempt to call Byakuran privately.]
[He looks a little more clearly panicked by the time he gets to this last try to reach the man and he's actually soaked, like he tried to go outside or to the roof or something.]
Byakuran-san, if you see this and you went to Espoir to check on the shop or something equally as stupid, I'm going to KILL YOU MYSELF. And answer your damn phone next time...
Please, please answer your phone.
[Pulls off his glasses and rubs at his eyes before replacing the splattered lenses, and an arm seems to be wrapped around his middle.]
You're... really scaring me by running off this time. Just call back ASAP.
[Hesitates, like he's at a loss of what else to say...] You better be okay.

Jun. 7th, 2011 12:34 am[The feed clicks on to a red head with rather noticeable circles under his eyes and a scowl on his face. And there is a pot of coffee visible nearby, nearly empty.
There is a grumble as he adjusts the Dreamberry and finally spares it a glance.]
I don't know if I'm the only one who really hates this sudden upgrade, but give some warning for crying out loud! Even the weird stuff that happens at the full and new moons are at least sort of predictable.
But this... THIS.
Was uncalled for! Weeks of work just gone. Like that. [Snaps his fingers before running his hands through unruly hair.] Because I didn't have more important things to work on or anything. A job to catch up on, research to do. Nooooooo~
I've almost got my synching program rebuilt, but this is going to take so much tweaking. Never mind the REST of my modifications.
What point was there in restructuring the software base anyway?!
Sure, it's a little more streamlined this way, but that could have been achieved in other ways. Ways that didn't require other people to have to rewrite their code from scratch. [That's not bitterness at all in his voice, nooo.]
If anyone else out there had any modifications to their phone, I wish you all the damn luck in the dream world. As for anyone I did tweaks for? Let me know if they are completely screwed now. I'll get to it.
Che.
[And the feed abruptly cuts off. This call has been brought to you by the Dreamberry 2.0 upgrade, a lack of coffee, a lack of sleep, and one bitchy engineer.]

Apr. 7th, 2011 12:20 am[He had only meant to record the video for himself, just for the hell of it. However, being a computer savvy genius didn't keep Shouichi from accidentally knocking into things, including his keyboard as he maneuvered around his room with his burden. This in turn synchronized his phone to the recording and starts a video call on the network.
The redhead's face can't be seen, instead, the video specifically centers on his hands and the guitar hung from neck. His hands take their positions, he takes a deep breath and begins to play...( Truly geeky geekiness ahead... )

Mar. 20th, 2011 02:25 am(( Note: As part of the vision of the future, since these function similarly to dream broadcasts, one can hear Shouichi's thoughts (in italics) and feel the specific things he is feeling through the vision.
Also, this is slightly backdated to around 3/18, during his White Day servitude.))
( He'd held off as long as possible, seeing other such broadcasts brought about by the mysterious cards. But in the end curiousity had gotten the better of him... )
[The broadcast of the card's contained "vision" ends to reveal a horrified look over the owner's face before the feed is abruptly cut.]

Feb. 27th, 2011 06:36 pm[Shouichi's voice sounds unsteady, clearly shaken and slightly out of breath.]
Now I'm certain of it. The fog is making people see things.
Because those people..... t-they aren't here.
And though I didn't mind one, it was just disappointing to realize it wasn't true. But the other I couldn't... I couldn't be more grateful.
[Hard swallow before continuing.]
So everyone, be careful out there until this lifts. Apparently we can't trust our own eyes anymore.
I.... I think I'm calling in to work and will just work from home tomorrow. I don't have any desire to deal with this fog anymore.

Dec. 4th, 2010 01:59 pm I wonder. Does it really matter if you age here when you are returned to the exact point in time you fell "asleep" into this dream world? Hmm. I can't imagine it can or it would disrupt the flow of time when a person awoke, but it's interesting to consider.
Gives a person something to think about. What's the true nature of this world? Is it literally a dream we have entered and we dream within it our own dreams, building something more or is it something different entirely and dream energy just occurs naturally here?
(( OOC: Whoops, had to edit this post as canon-mate pointed something out. Sorry! ))

Nov. 20th, 2010 12:51 pm[Shouichi's grinning widely and looks almost as if he's unable to sit still. He scoots back in a rolling chair away from the Dreamberry and resting against his lap is an electric guitar.]
Yup, finally. No more stalling or excuses. [Glances down at the guitar, excited.] And no I don't remember how to play very well at all apparently. [Makes a face at the admission, but there is a fierce spark of resolve when he looks up again.] Going to fix that. Wishing harder than ever that I had more music on me when I arrived here than just the few songs on my thumb-drive though.
So if I'm sparse, it's because of this. And work of course. Work has been... enlightening. In both directions, I feel, honestly. I'm hoping to improve some of the contingencies for these networks. Obviously in a world like this we can't prepare for everything because anything can happen, but addressing some what-ifs that can cover a broader spectrum of possible problems is something we could use more of. Also modifications to the phones themselves that I think would be hmm useful to the population at large that I've been testing.
But screw work for now, I have a new toy to play with and a loooot of work in front of me to get decent.
[Scoots forward to end the call and then starts, realizing something.]
Oh, I did have another reason for having this be public! Geez, I almost forgot. If anyone would like to make any Dreamberry customizations, I'm willing to work on commission. Give me a call or drop a text and we'll talk about what's possible.
[Now he leans in and cuts the feed.]

Sep. 17th, 2010 07:30 pm[The Dreamberry flicks on when it's tossed onto the side table in the entryway of an apartment suite. The video is sideways and at waist-level as it starts to record. All that is in the picture at first is a leg and then the figure retreats, murmuring to themselves, to show from the waist to about the knee of someone in jeans and a long t-shirt.]
It's amazing how junk mail exists even in a dream world that seems to be just one very large city in terms of population of the entire place.
Junk junk jun- .... huh?
[The rifling of papers sound stops and then there is a tearing sound and some murmuring again as the letter within is scanned over quickly.]
A-Are you serious? I got it? I got it! YES. BYAKURAN-SAN! I got the job at the lab!
[And the figure retreats further from the phone, showing the red head fully before he disappears around a corner hurriedly, seeking out his roommate to share the good news. The video-feed still records the empty room for a few minutes until he returns to grab up the phone and looks rather startled to see it on and recording. Giving the camera a sheepish look, he shuts off the feed with a mumbled "sorry."]
(( OOC: So, I think I'm going to give the [ ]s a try for action stuff, so sorry for the random sudden switch for anyone who noticed and is like wtf. XD; Also going to just go with whatever tense the other person gives me in a thread to be consistent. ))

Aug. 28th, 2010 04:12 pm*The feed turns on with the sound of a clatter and the Dreamberry is recording at an angle, as if it fell off of something and turned on.
It shows a figure bent over pieces of machinery before they pull back into full view of the video, showing Shouichi sitting back cross legged on the ground with a flashlight held between his teeth. He pulled it out and set it aside. There's some oil smudged over one cheek and he looks more than a little frustrated. He's sitting just beside the large windows of his and Byakuran's apartments in Edennel trying to take advantage of the natural daylight as best he can on top of the small flashlight's beam.
A generator is sitting just barely in sight of the phone, though to someone who knew what they were looking at, it probably looked a little modified.
Wiping the back of his hand along his brow, Shouichi sighed and frowned further at the equipment. He reached out and pulled it a bit closer, sliding more of it unintentionally into view of the fallen and recording Dreamberry and an odd shaped hole in a plate was set into the side of the generator now.*
Alright, you stubborn thing, let's try this again.
*He pushed up his glasses and reached into a pocket and slid on a ring with a large white stone with folded silver wings branching to each side. He took a deep breath, eyes closed and seemed to concentrate before a pale yellow flame sparked to life around the ring.
He turned his hand and inserted the flame-covered ring into the plate opening and with his other hand yanked the generator cord, making it sputter to life. A yellow glow enveloped the generator and Shouichi removed the ring from the generator with a triumphant smile on his lips.*
HA! Finally. Okay, now where is my... *He glanced around and now finally saw the phone fallen from its perch and on, green eyes widening in surprise. He crawled over and picked it up, sheepish.*
Uh, apparently I'm recording. Sorry everyone. But while I have this on, if the blackout lasts any longer, it looks like I can make the modifications to that generator, Magnus-san.
Also, Fay-san have you guys been okay at the onsen? Do you have a source of power or did you want me to patch a generator together for you? Let me know.
*Opened his mouth to address an offer to another, but stopped, then shook his head.* Hopefully it isn't necessary for much longer and the power comes back soon, either way.

I had no idea Gokudera-kun was gone. I'm sorry... I was going to call you guys and see if you needed help with your power, but saw he was missing from the contact list. Uh, let me know if you do want some help though. I'll be right out there if you need me.
It shows a figure bent over pieces of machinery before they pull back into full view of the video, showing Shouichi sitting back cross legged on the ground with a flashlight held between his teeth. He pulled it out and set it aside. There's some oil smudged over one cheek and he looks more than a little frustrated. He's sitting just beside the large windows of his and Byakuran's apartments in Edennel trying to take advantage of the natural daylight as best he can on top of the small flashlight's beam.
A generator is sitting just barely in sight of the phone, though to someone who knew what they were looking at, it probably looked a little modified.
Wiping the back of his hand along his brow, Shouichi sighed and frowned further at the equipment. He reached out and pulled it a bit closer, sliding more of it unintentionally into view of the fallen and recording Dreamberry and an odd shaped hole in a plate was set into the side of the generator now.*
Alright, you stubborn thing, let's try this again.
*He pushed up his glasses and reached into a pocket and slid on a ring with a large white stone with folded silver wings branching to each side. He took a deep breath, eyes closed and seemed to concentrate before a pale yellow flame sparked to life around the ring.
He turned his hand and inserted the flame-covered ring into the plate opening and with his other hand yanked the generator cord, making it sputter to life. A yellow glow enveloped the generator and Shouichi removed the ring from the generator with a triumphant smile on his lips.*
HA! Finally. Okay, now where is my... *He glanced around and now finally saw the phone fallen from its perch and on, green eyes widening in surprise. He crawled over and picked it up, sheepish.*
Uh, apparently I'm recording. Sorry everyone. But while I have this on, if the blackout lasts any longer, it looks like I can make the modifications to that generator, Magnus-san.
Also, Fay-san have you guys been okay at the onsen? Do you have a source of power or did you want me to patch a generator together for you? Let me know.
*Opened his mouth to address an offer to another, but stopped, then shook his head.* Hopefully it isn't necessary for much longer and the power comes back soon, either way.

Notes: This isn't how things happen, but this is a nightmare after all... character deaths implied, but nothing too graphic, I don't think.

( This wasn't supposed to happen... )
*That scream was Shouichi himself as he ripped awake from the nightmare. He stumbled out of bed, forgoing even his glasses, and rushed down the hall to the bathroom to start vomiting violently, unaware of the Dreamberry's light from his nightstand before the feed finished recording and shut off....*

Jul. 16th, 2010 01:11 am*Calling right after he finished his text to Magnus and his errand there. Early evening-ish.*
[Voice call placed to Byakuran privately]
Byakuran-san, sorry I didn't make it over to the shop today. I had some things to think about and take care of. You should be back home by now, right? I'm on my way there now. I wanted to talk to you about something...
*He was doing his best to not sound as nervous as he felt, but probably wasn't doing that great of a job. God, he felt so sick...*
