[People who tune in to this Live notification or people passing through the lobby today will notice that all the tables and chairs from the sitting area and kitchen have been arranged into groups or circles for people to sit at, and each table has supplies on it, like dry-erase tent cards or stacks of poster board and markers for making signs. There are also 'Hi My Name Is ___' name tags in case people feel like making introductions easier. Pink is seated on a couch with Izanagi, waving at the camera.]

Hey fellow idols--unwilling and willing!--it's been an unnervingly quiet chunka time, hasn't it? But the Christmas episodes have come 'n gone and probably a new year started at some point or another! So let's do a recap episode, or what I'm gonna call the Annual Support Group Live. Basically, I've got a simple survey question for ya: what support group could ya start? What sorts of people do ya feel empathy for 'cause ya've been through the same shit? Or what other crazy thing is more common than ya might expect? Ta answer: shout it out! or better yet, make a sign!

[Gestures to the stacks of supplies and name tags.]

There's all kinds of things people might be going through, right? This is a great opportunity to find others like you! Like, "I'm from a world without all this newfangled technology and it confuses me!" or "My world doesn't have magic at all, but everyone else has super powers and it's not fair!" Our units are important, but finding people who have gone through similar experiences can really help - it's just good self-care to make sure you have someone to talk to about your problems after all!

So come one come all! We'll be making noise down in the kitchen 'n sitting area off the lobby! There might even be spillover in the laundry room, who knows. Other units are welcome ta contribute! After all, for Lilis it's a great opportunity ta explore your feelings, and Taisho knows confession has been ritualized for centuries! I'm sure everybody's got plenty ta add ta this Mega-Live! Let's all get some bonding in while stuff's still chill!

((ooc: Top-level to start a "support group" and put the name in the subject line! They do not have to be serious! This is mainly a self-running live though hosts and cohosts may be around, so feel free to go wild jumping threads. Also, making multiple support groups is legit! Please check out the CO-HOSTS TOP-LEVEL if you want to help make this a Megalive or just for additional Live elements you can reference while threading!

Points Tally:

Hosts and Counter-live Hosts: row 1
Unitmates of Hosts or Counter-live Hosts: row 2
Everybody else: row 3))

[Staring like

Past me is AN IDIOT????]

I also thought that sounded unwise.

[...Wait Nero probably thinks he'd kill them or something.]

But only because I wouldn't know what to do with them.

They wouldn't have the attention span for your poetry CDs.

Hah, no, I suppose they wouldn't. Though it's more likely I would allow them to do something far too dangerous for human children. I suppose you don't recall my childhood memories now, but I don't have much point of reference.

...It was still a nice present. Even if it's not for kids.

[--oh]

...You think so? Did...you listen to any?

It's about the nerdiest damn thing I've ever seen in my life, but I like some of them. Dylan Thomas is cool. And Poe's more dramatic when you're hearing it, instead of reading.

Edited 2021-01-11 10:01 (UTC)

I thought you might like those two.

[His heart......... Nero being like this and still listening to it and saying it was good hits even harder.]

[Looks a little incredulous that this apparently made Vergil so happy, but like, in a faintly amused way.]

Lucky guess.

...It's weird. If I'd just got dropped into Imeeji with nothing in my head, I'd probably wanna be friends with you.

.......Why?

I dunno. You're weird, demon-y, you wanna throw down. You still like me even when I'm being an ass, so I don't have to force myself to be polite.

I would think "weird and demon-y" would be bad. But I don't see any reason you should have to be polite to me, I would much prefer you speak your mind even if I don't like it. It's far more amusing, besides.

...That is something I like about you, Nero.

Well, I don't see a point to not speaking my mind.

...I guess, is something you're gonna say I got from you, too.

I suppose you must have. Clearly no other explanation.

[Half snort-laugh.]

Sure. That's what it had to be.

[Something like fondness flickers across his face for a second before-- he winces again with a hiss of pain, bringing a hand up to his chest. It felt hard to breathe for a second, like thorns wrapping around his heart.]

--Nero? What's wrong?

[He jerks back from Vergil, whatever warmth in his expression completely gone. Staring at the man in front of him like a stranger butting his nose in where he wasn't invited.]

What's it to you?

[.....Hm. He has a suspicion here.]

Can I not be concerned? I believe I already told you I would be regardless.

[Have you taken crazy pills, sir?]

Told me-- what?? Dude, I don't even know you.

[That

is worse than his suspicion.]

...Not even my name?

[Stares

blankly...]

Am I supposed to?

[He presses his lips together, brow furrowing as much as it possibly can, and just shakes his head.]

No, don't worry about it. Never mind.

Uh, okay?

[...Weirdo. He's just gonna

go now.]

[Yeah he...is also going to do that. Time to alert some people.......]
