[Onlookers on various worlds might happen to notice a familiar blue blur flying from place to place today. Thanks to the raving success of his last post, the god of communication now had plenty of work to entertain him. Being a God certainly had it‘s advantages, such as making the travel time between worlds nearly instantaneous.

The first stop appeared to be on Disney Castle as evidenced by the architecture and the layout of the city. One parcel to one albeit confused receiver, check. In a blink of an eye Hermes was next seen in an office filing papers at inhuman speed.]

There we go, what an improvement! [He glanced around the room but didn’t catch sight of the person who’d hired him for the job, so he left a note detailing the new filing system, in case they needed to find anything while he was off completing the other tasks] Mm.. what’s next on the agenda? [Anyone that had been to Port Royal recently would no doubt be able to discern the world Hermes stopped next. He hovered just inside the Police station]

Naoto, babe. Are you in here? [She had said that she needed some paperwork of some kind delivered to Dante but.. He wasn’t entirely sure what it was. ]

Now, let’s see. Seems like I had a couple of gigs on Traverse Town.

[ He stopped by to tidy up Leonardo’s work station first, and left instructions on how the use this system as well before heading over to Lizzie’s shop for her parcels. He took a moment to address the communicator briefly]

Now that, cats, is how I operate. Swift, efficient and all within the span of one day. [He decided to use the footage he’d caught to advertise what he could do] If anyone else needs anything done for them, let me know all right?

By the by, has any one seen ol' Zeusy around? We kinda had a competition lined up.

[Dante will be receiving some shiny new paperwork to fill out (ill-timed since it’s close to his birthday)]

[Ciel will be receiving an egg from some anonymous source]

[ooc: Hermes is zipping about all over a variety of worlds. Feel free to run into him somewhere or speak to him via the comm. In the post I kinda breezed by some of the stops but only to illustrate Hermes canon speedyness. If anyone at those stops wants to rp it out below lets go for it 8D. Here’s all the tasks he was completing or trying to complete: - Leonardo needed his workspace at Dante’s cleaned up and organized, Naoto needed work related items delivered to Dante, Fai also needed his office organized, Lizzie had some parcels to be delivered (I‘m not sure what or to who on those though o_o;, let me know and I can edit accordingly, or if they were npcs, I can edit out this message that works too!), and Oz requested a gift be sent anonymously to Ciel Phantomhive]

thisonemaiden

This one has not been out and about as of late. This one apologizes to everyone for that...

[ Cheza gives the camera a sad smile as she's sitting in her room. it's a little dark since it's night time and there's only moonlight coming in from the roof. she moves her head to look up at the room as she closes her eyes ]

There is a full moon, this one can tell. When this one blooms, this one will know the direction to Paradise.

But without the wolves... This one will not be able to take anyone there...

[ she trails off a little as she opens her eyes. her eyes look as though they're starting to fill with tears. she really does enjoy having new friends here, but she loves the wolves and without them, she feels like dirt :( ]

[PRIVATE TEXT TO LEON]
I have begun my work on those potions you had asked me about, unfortunately I'm not sure how well they will work. Long story short, I would rather try them out but I'm not sure anyone would voluntarily agree to taking one of the potions. Perhaps you could help? I would really prefer having your opinion on the matter. After all, not everyone here seems to be 'normal'.

[PRIVATE TEXT TO SEBASTIAN]
I hope you found the letter I left for you in the shops kitchen. In case you didn't, I'm sending you this message to inform you that I had to take an emergency leave from the bakery. I was asked by someone, and if you must know who I suppose I could disclose the name. I know you can keep a secret. Either way, I was asked to track Maleficent and the ingredients were finally ready. I'm currently in Twilight Town, it's the closest I can safely be to the world she's on. I'll be home soon. I'm sorry for any inconvenience.

[PRIVATE TEXT TO HADES]
The tracking spell is ready. I'm about to try it if you wish to be present. I'm not exactly sure how successful this will be, Maleficent is unpredictable. I assumed you would want to know.

ACTION : TWILIGHT TOWN
Thank you for your assistance!

[Hermione had set up camp on a rooftop and some moogle's had helped her. She needed someplace high, easy to see the sky. She had a few things spread out before she brought out her small heartless kitten. The moogle's seemed concerned.]

No, she's fine. She won't hurt anyone, I actually need her for this to work. W-wait!

[But the moogle's weren't having a say in this, in stead they fled. She heaved a sigh and turned back to her work setting the cat down between the ingredients.]

Umbra, you'll have to stay put as I start the spell. [She extended out her wand and pointed it straight at the cat who in turn tilted its head in curiosity.] I promise it won't hurt.

[The video caught sight of Hermes flitting about the coliseum. With nothing to do… he’d taken to spending most of his time with Herc and Phil.. And though the three usually got along fine it was definitely starting to grate on the goat-man’s nerves as well as the God’s.

Going from those regular pantheon meetings, to the semi regular deliveries to next to nothing wasn’t an easy transition.

Returning to the communicator he decided to lay it all out there.]

All right cats, and kittens.. I’m going to cut right to the chase, you dig?

If any of you, need ANYTHING delivered.. Whether it’s a message, object, what have you.. I’m the God for the job. [A touch of a nervous laugh] I’m also a whiz at organization, I have office experience and I can build a pita faster than Zeus-y can hurl a lightning bolt.

If anyone out there, in need of any services along those lines? I’m not asking for anything in return so beseech away.

knowledgephilia

[Things had been troubling these past couple of days. For most, she could make a sweet tart or perhaps a delicious cake to cheer up the depressing mood from the previous week but to some she wasn't sure how to cheer up. Either way, Hermione was a gentle spirit, she figured even the grouchiest and undeserved deserved a chance to cheer up. That was why she was decked in a black robe over an alter at the entrance to the Underworld with a basket of things. She was tying up strange colored brush before grabbing some stones and grinding them together. The plants bled black and she left it on a saucer for them to bleed out while she knee-led on the floor and prayed.]

The Greeks worshiped many Gods and even amongst them was the God they feared the most. Death is a natural order of life and they prayed that the Lord of the dead would care for their souls once they passed.

[She leaned down, her forehead touching the ground for a moment before coming back up again.]

They built the Necromanteion, but who knows where that is, in honor of him and his bride. They would sacrifice typically black animals but I don't believe in living sacrifice. [She touches the ground with her forehead again before slipping up and pulling out a match from her pocket.] Hopefully this will do. [She set fire to the brush's and heaved a sigh.]

I should probably do one for Zues as well. It's common courtesy.

[Video - God filtered to Sebastian, Ciel, and the dark-aligned residents of Star Kingdom]

Alright look, we have been working against each other the entire time... I don't know about you but I am getting tired of working at cross purposes. So, how about this? The hero-types have their own 'cute, little' organizations, why don't we form one?

We could form our own, Dark Society!

This way I won't accidentally interfere in your plots, you won't interfere in mine, quid pro quo.

And certain... dark fairies who keep involving former conspirators in their pathetically aimless plots can be dealt with by the group unless they decide to fall in line.
Come on, what do you say? It's better than ruining each others schemes, isn't it?

Why that... that AUUUGGGHHHRRRGGGHHH!!!

[Hades appears on the screen in fine temper today. Even he looks a bit disheveled as he stomps back and forth in his throne room in the Underworld. ]

Why does it have to be like this every, single, time? That... just is... really unnecessary...
One of these days, instead of chasing shadows from the past... that guy IS going to get loose and then where will you be? Dead, alright, you will be dead! Not even this little prank can defeat a titan!

All of your powers mean bubcus to him! And when I find you... oh yeah...

[Hades sneers as he leans closer to the camera.]

...when I find you... I'll introduce you to him. A few thousand years trapped in Tartarus should make you think twice about involving a God in your schemes!

[OOC: Hades is mad. He just had a visit from an illusion of his father, Cronus. He wants to find the one responsible for this and make them pay. ]

darkerearth

Master... Ventus... Aqua... Tidus -- Everyone, I'm sorry!

[ the video is dark, most likely not working, and nothing can be seen but the audio can be heard. Terra's voice cracks as he speaks, he sounds completely exhausted and like he might be a bit delirious. he makes a choked sob as he's fumbling for something ]

The electricity is out and everyone is gone.

I should've... I should've done something. I should've been there. I...

I failed - everyone.

[ his voice cracks again ]

Why did this have to happen...?

mynameisallen

[Allen felt exhausted, but he knew that if he slept, his dreams would be haunted by that man, that one person with whom he feared most. Putting a hand to his face, he was trying to work through the foggy Port Royal, but with very little success. Him being tired and lacking the sleep of the past few nights were starting to take their toll. Rubbing his eyes slightly, he tried to wipe away what sleep there could be. Now wasn't the time for sleep. Now was the time to stay awake and focus of the work at hand.

But no matter how he tried, it just wasn't helping. Walking to the middle of the town, he removed his hand and glanced around. He was considering getting off work early and going home.]

Lenalee... Kanda... I think I'll be heading home early. I can't seem to focus at all.

[With a yawn, he stretched his arms out. Maybe he should try and sleep, but at mid yawn he froze. There was someone standing right in front of him. A man Allen recognizes all too well. With the look of surprise, he just stood there with a smile.]

Hello, Allen.

mister_foppish

Hrm. I can't really say it's particularly important but, in case you wished to know, I…am no longer staying in the hotel. I am, however, still residing in Traverse Town. It would seem I do know someone here, after all. I also wanted to thank those for their kindness, in receiving me here. I realize I am not the only person who has crossed such a difficult path but, nevertheless, I wish to thank you for helping me.

[A considerate pause, and Pegasus swirls a glass of wine in his hand. Clearly someone hasn't been sleeping at proper hours.]

How does one live in a place with eternal night? Well, I suppose it has its perks. I always did love starry nights. Constellations hold a special fascination for me, I guess you might say. They have so much meaning.

[He makes a gesture towards a particular portion of the sky out the window.]

If you look carefully you can see this square in the sky, in the north. It's my—er, well, the Constellation Pegasus. The Square of Pegasus…

[A small tic creases his mouth, as if he were amused by that idea.]

( Legend holds... )

[His gaze drifts back to the screen.]

Perhaps there are poor choices to be made that are unforeseen, or are predestined. Who is to say? I can only move forward. If there is light at the end of this journey, I suppose we'll know by the end, won't we?

I suppose it makes sense, that I might see it now. I've heard it's growing to be autumn here, isn't it? Back home it was the high end of summer. I was an autumn child myself, so it's sort of nostalgic for me…

[A soft, lilting laugh permeates the air. It sounds kind of sorrowful and lonely, actually.]

Well, nevermind. I suppose that's enough rambling for one night.

[Video via someone else’s communicator XD]

RRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRAAAAAAAAAAAAAGH! [A disgruntled specter of the Underworld called out in a rage] When I get my hands on that little twerp, his idiot butler, and that insufferable florist no one will be able to recognize their lifeless carcasses!

[Oh yeah, a certain witch was kinda sorta.. In a rage about what happened to her glorious plan. And well.. The whole dying thing. As the spirit floated into view, viewers might notice that Icy is more than a little transparent right now]

Why stop with them…

[Her tone grew a little softer]

..When I return everyone will pay dearly. No one will be safe from my wrath!

[With that.. The feeds ends abruptly]

intogold

[The video is on. But Rumpelstiltskin is unaware of this, largely because it was turned on as it was flung against a wall.

He's having a bit of a tantrum. These are, thankfully, quite rare, but also quite violent. There is broken glass strewn about, vials and bottles shattered and small pools of variously colored liquids.]

Useless! All of this entirely useless. How is it there's not one pair in true love in this entire mess of an existence?!

[It's about here his eyes fall on his communicator and he realizes he's being watched. He straightens up a bit, schools his face into a bit of a smile. Tense around the edges, pulled a bit too taut over his features.]

Well dearies, sorry you had to see that. Call it a bit of frustration and homesickness. I suppose perhaps while I have some of your attention, I should make the most of it. What is the happiest memory you have? What would you be willing to sacrifice to reclaim it?

[Video / Underworld Action ]

Ok, I get it, I do, went a little too far with the ‘taking over worlds’ thing…

[At first one can only hear Hades voice and see the dark and gloomy interior of the Underworld. ]

So Dante, come on, let’s talk this over a bit.

[There is a clank of chain as whomever is using the recording device tries to figure out how to move the camera. There is even a brief glimpse of an eyeball as the creature looks inside the lens to see if the thing is working. ]

We’re both reasonable people here, well, not people per se but… we can work this out. What do you want? There must be something… help finding some one, success in your business… Oh! A new jacket?

[And there the camera finally focuses on Hades who appears to have been chained to his throne in the Underworld. Now for those who know their Greek mythology they should recognize the golden chains that even a God can’t break. Dante and his team successfully managed to put Hades out of commission for a while. ]

Come on, let’s talk, what do you say?

sinfullysublime

[ ah chaos. sebastian loved it. a small smile pursed his lips as he listened to it unfold over the feeds. he had even reviewed the information he'd procured over the last several hours. it had been amusing. at least at first... now it was borderline pathetic. they were all going about this in the wrong manner. ]

Hades. Miss Icy. [ in spite of the impending doom Sebastian is as polite as ever. ] I am sure that you realize your opposing forces are gathering and planning on making an attack at your castle. [ yes, your castle. ] It's silly, really, trying to overthrow the King of the Underworld and his Ice Queen... but the stupidity runs deep amongst this particular group. I'm sorry to relay that they won't make the best of minions, [ curls a hand to the base of his chin as he takes a moment to think. his head cants to the side and he stifles a dark bit of laughter. ] ...perhaps slaves. I wouldn't rely on them for anything more than breaking bricks.

Be on the look out for a few groups. I do believe one is lead by a pair of race bastardizing half demons and they're on their way to the Underworld. I know not the reason. Perhaps they're interested in giving what marred souls they possess to you, my Liege. [ doesn't bother to cover the subsequent bit of laughter. he can't stand abominations. ] ...and the other, as you can imagine, is aiming for the Castle. It might be wise to bolster security and do a bit of fire prevention.

[ It later becomes apparent that the demon is not entirely alone. Seated nearby Ciel laced his fingers together and casually leaned his head upon his hands. Hades and Icy's plan seemed too reckless to truly be seen through to fruition... but something about the ordeal intrigued him. This might offer him a new opportunity to get in the Lord of the Underworld's good graces... ]

These idiots could all use a lesson in humility... [ He narrowed his eye as he spoke. ] I will gladly donate my servant to your cause.

Master? [ and that is cause for alarm. sebastian wafts a brow as his gaze finds his former master. ]

[ The smirk on the boy's face was evident, as he seemed to delight in Sebastian's confusion. ] All that I ask in exchange is for my own safety.

[ sebastian recovered as swiftly as he could manage, his master's cruel bargain aside. he dropped to one knee and set a hand to his heart as spires of darkness bled from his being. ] ...guarantee the safety of Earl Phantomhive and I will be yours to control. [ lifts his head as his face splits into a toothy smirk. ] ...one hell of a Butler...

( ooc; Black is Sebastian. Blue is Ciel. )

majestical

[Anyone in Traverse Town, or anyone who happens to have their communicator on at this moment, will find that the sky has suddenly grown quite dark. Just when you thought nothing else could go wrong, lightning begins spearing through the clouds with deafening thunder to follow. It's a violent storm, nevermind that it wasn't on the forecast for the day. That becomes the least of anyone's problems once a booming voice crackling with rage fills the air off-camera.]

Where are they?!

[The force of the voice is enough to send the moogle holding the communicator backwards onto the ground, flailing its arms. Its source, however, becomes clear. A towering man with a wild dark mane and beard stands across from the moogle, looking as furious as he sounds.]

I-I don't know who--!

My son, Perseus, and my brother, Hades. [He cuts the moogle off impatiently. There is no time to lose.]

W-Well, I don't know about a Perseus, k-kupo... There's a Hades here, b-but he's--

[The man doesn't even wait for the moogle to finish his sentence, despite its frantic attempt to explain that it's probably not his brother because he's a god. It isn't until the man swings a hand up to the sky, vanishing in a bolt of lightning and the storm soon vanishing with it that it realized it was talking to a god.

Ally or foe? That's for you to decide. Unfortunately, his attempt to get to his own Olympus promptly fails and sends him across the various worlds, looking for his son and brother with a storm following him wherever he goes.]

OOC; Zeus will not be answering any video responses because... well, he doesn't have the communicator. But the moogle will if you're so inclined!

[Video / Underdrome Action]

The clash of battle, the excitement of watching such accomplished fighters attempt to annihilate each other on the field of combat, granted there could have been a little more bloodshed, maybe a death or two, but overall it was a thrilling competition wasn’t it?

I suppose you all are curious, who was the better fighter?

[ Hades stands in the center of the now nearly destroyed floor of the Underdrome in order to make his announcement. The fighters from the tournament had all been asked to attend in order to claim their prizes… or consolation prizes as the case would be for many of the fighters. These brave or foolhardy people stood in the center of the coliseum where the audience in the stands could get a good look at them and cheer for their favorites. ]

Who was the most impressive? Who had the best tactics? Who was it who outsmarted all of you shlemiel’s and came away with the grand prize?

[ Hades reaches over to pick up the ‘grand prize’ the dark black Hades Cup trophy. He holds the object in the air as the audience roars their cheers. ]

The winner of the Hades Cup tournament is…

[….
….
Drumroll…

….
….
….]

ME!

[With a laugh Hades drops the Hades Cup trophy back onto its stand. ]

Ahha! You losers! Did you actually think any of you idiots could beat me in my own Underworld? Come on, did you, really?

[A large big screen behind Hades flashes to life showing off a very smug looking Icy sitting on Queen Minnie’s throne in what can only be Disney Castle. ]

While you were all busy playing around Hades and I were busy taking over your pathetic little castle. That’s right losers Disney Castle now belongs to me!

Maybe now we can get rid of some of this pointless cutesy nonsense and finally put these moogles to work doing something worthwhile!

Any one left on this world is welcome to stay but you have to work for me. I could always use a few good slaves. As for the rest of you losers don’t even bother trying to fight back. You will never get past my heartless or my army of decay!

[OOC - Notes

There you go, the entire Hades Cup was just a trap to get all of you hero-types busy paying attention to something else so that Icy would have time to take over Disney Castle. So, what can you do with this?

Some suggestions:
Fight your way out of the Underworld.
Grab a gummi ship and try to pilot your way through the heartless army to reach Disney Castle.
Confront Hades.
Face off against Icy’s Army of Decay but be warned that every monster destroyed will form two more of the same monster.
If your character was on Disney Castle when Icy attacked you could work as a slave or attempt to escape before being captured by her.
Rescue the kidnapped Kairi who was captured because she was a key blade wielder who was not going to pay attention to the Hades Cup.

OR come up with something on your own. Plotty things are always welcome! ]

Locked from Hades

[ The camera is showing around the area of the food stands, recording the atmosphere before the fight. Usually, there is some form of entertainment beyond the main event. There are some eager fans already in the stands. Billy notices the imps, Pain and Panic talking about something. The camera starts to focus on the minions of Hades. Billy is trying to stay hidden from them.]

That went surprisingly well!
Yeah, we didn’t have to do much at all!
It’s nice when things work out that way.
Hey, do you think this plan will really work?
It’s really ambitious…
At least if it doesn’t work out Hades can’t blame us for it!
So very true!

[ The imps laugh, congratulate each other, then disappear.]

Sluberdegullion!

[ With a muttered curse, the feed abruptly shuts off.]

(ooc: Blue for Panic, Red for Pain. Hades-mun wrote their dialogue.)

memoryreprieved

[ Maybe it's their mind playing tricks on them, maybe it's just a figment of their imagination. Or did they just see someone scamper past in a black trench coat? They just might have. Yet for some reason, someone- while it's hard to distinguish who with their hood up like that, comes briskly darting along not-so-subtly through the streets.

They look like they're just trying too hard, but it's habit and they just... need to feel that comfort zone as they do their best to get away from that moogle who seemed a little too curious about them. And its persistence only made them further push away, further remember what they have to do. A matter that assembles into words as they look down at the device it gave them at the corner of an alley, taking a breather. What did that moogle say about it? They turn it over curiously before that attention becomes mechanical, attention diverting elsewhere. [Accidental Audio] ]

How did I get here? [ The voice is that of a young girl, pausing uncertainly afterwards. Some people might even recognize that voice. It happens to be that of a familiar red head... ] ...I have to get back to the-

Hi there! Are you new here, kupo?

[ There's a surprised yelp followed by crackling as the communicator hits the ground. ]

( ooc: Meet Xion. She's a little bit on the skittish side at the moment due to just having woken up after, uh, fighting with one of her best friends. And now she's on the look-see about finishing what she was out to do, but then moogles happened. Feel free to catch her either while she's running around or respond to her whoops!audio or whatever floats your boat. )

Current Location: Traverse Town

[Video]

No, thank you, ladies! You’ve been a big help, seriously, couldn’t have done it without you…

[Hades drops the eyeball he was holding down into the open palm of one Fates. ]

We will have to do this again, real soon.

Now…

[Turning to face the camera.]

Wha? Is this thing on already?
I know you hero-types have been having fun up there with your parties and fits of truth telling, but come on, you have to be tired of it all by now? What you need is a little excitement, a little adventure, what you need is the HADES CUP!

This year it will be held in the Underdrome for even more excitement and thrills than the last Hades Cup.
What do you say? Who’s interested?

intotheinferno

[Vergil is sitting in a chair, somewhere. He definitely looks better then he did in his last post. No blood, no screaming. he looks quite handsome all cleaned up, but that's not the point. The room around him is dark, the only light is coming from his communicator.]

I am told that I have been to this place before, yet I hold no memories of it.

[He knows it is strange, but no amount of meditation can help him gain these seemingly 'lost' memories back. He knew well that the last memories he had were in his own world, dying.]

I ask this only in curiosity, who knows me?
