Current Events
Updated: 20/07/2020

**ALERT!** After a rather eventful evening at Maksim's Party, three teenagers seems to have gone missing. The doors of Vault Olympia have been breached due to a to this day unknown assailant, who sabotaged the doors locking systems, allowing demons to make entry. Thanks to the excellent defensive capabilities of the Vault's Security drones, the Attack was put to an end, and the invading monsters fled to the outside. Right now, the Doors of Vault Olympia are currently open, allowing any survivors of the fall to seek shelter within the Vault's safe halls. What Vault Security officials think of this development remains unclear as the Chief of Police and Security of Olympia refused to leave a comment. This is Rianara, of Olympia news, signing out.

The site is entering a new era as our team of mods works tirelessly on updating old and obsolete information threads and links. Over the Summer, we aim to make many changes to the forum, including writing a comprehensive beginners' guide to help new players accommodate to the combat and other rp systems in place here.

Be sure to constantly check the update thread for any changes to the boards. You can find it ->Here<-

Keep your mind sharp... keep your mind focus... patrol, look for difficulties... find things that need correcting, look for clues, search for anything that is off... just keep moving forward.  You can't afford to let yourself get down.  Emotions kill logic, emotions restrain Order.  Ergo, forego emotions, hold them in for now.  You can release them once you are in the comfort of your own home...

She could tell herself that all she wanted as she patrolled the Backlight yet again for any trouble that she may need to assist in, but after the events of the night before...

Doubt was a powerful enemy.  It was subtle and quiet, finding it's way into the most secure of fortresses.  Once within, it can erode easily or slowly, so long as it is allowed to do so.

Though she has a lot of doubt, Masako chose not to allow it to have it's way.  She would continue to push herself forward until the job was done, one way or another.

It was just another burden to carry...

Takeru happened to be walking by when he saw Masako. He had tried to call her earlier that day, and she hadn't answered her phone once.
Which was very unlike her, to him. To him, Masako was the type that, even if she had missed a call, would have called back ASAP, unless she was sick.

Which is why seeing her now surprised him, as that ruled out the possibility of being sick.
Which meant something was probably wrong.
And even if someone had told him to keep out of it, in was in his nature not to listen.
Such is the one who cares too much.

"Masa? Hey, Masa! Something wrong? Why didn't you return my calls this morning?"

That was a voice that gently pulled her out of her focus.

"Oh, Mr. Kagemaru," she replied formally, though she was a little confused about what he said.  "Wait... Morning calls?"  She actually looked upward as a show of thinking.  She doesn't remember any morning calls...

Flashback::

"... Oh!  T-there's a chance I may have not noticed it due to burying myself in an investigation..." She replied, looking to the side somewhat, "I admit, once I get focused on a goal, very little can actually deter, or in this case, distract me from it..."

There were other potential factors that she was willing to entertain, but in all honesty she was unsure of how much she would be allowed to divulge.  For now she chose the truth most likely at fault for this potential transgression.

Okay. Something was seriously wrong here. She really didn't seem the type to make an error like that.

Even though she gave the excuse that she was buried in a investigation,the fact she had looked away from him, a first considering how she usually maintained eye contact, only caused him to sigh.

"Did something happen last night, Masa? You seem... tired. It's not good to overwork yourself, you know. Besides, if anyone should be tired, it's me. My parents said they heard screams from the forest last night. Scared me so badly, I couldn't sleep until 3 in the morning." He said, sighing with a small chuckle. Actually,it wasn't the rumors of the screams as it was the events of last night that had driven him up.

"Look. My point is, you need a break. Come on. There's a cafe nearby. I'll buy you a cup of tea, or something. It'll do you some good. You'll be no good to anyone if you collapse, after all." He said with a smile, as he gently dragged her by the wrist inside.

The cafe in question was Alice-themed, and called The Rabbit Hole.

He sat down at a table that had a white Rabbit painted into the middle of it, and waited for her to sit down as well before he started talking.

"So, Masa, what do you want? I admit,the decor might be a bit strange, but... it's fairly nice. The food's okay, and so are the drinks. I'm buying, by the way. I come here because the manager is friends with my grandfather, and he sends me  here once in a while with stuff for him." He said, smiling.

Oh Irony, dear sweet, honeydewed irony.

Even in this moment, where terrible emotions are welling up inside of her like soda being overstimulated within a bottle, she was still able to find a morbid form of amusement at the current circumstances.

Next, fate will demand that I take the tsundere route and call Mr. Kagemaru a baka... she thought to herself as she sat on the white rabbit table.

"Well, it's definitely more childish, but I suppose it has it's charm," she replied, maintaining her usual stoic behavior throughout. "I'll just browse their teas. Hopefully they have a good red tea."

Her thoughts kept passing through what happened before, especially of the screams. Those will likely haunt her until she obtains closure. Still, ever the stoic face. To be fair, she's had years of practice thanks to the very thing that started her on this path.

Ugh. Stoicism. He hated thee.
But hey, part of the charm.
After hearing her remark on the childishness of the place, he seriously half expected her to go tsundere and call him a baka.
"You've been watching way too much anime. Life is not like that." Twelve said.

"Even after all that's happened? Becoming a masked man by night, living normal life by daylight... all these rom-com. Scenarios.... sure, why not. Truth is stranger than fiction." He thought.


"Tea, huh?" He thought upon listening to her.
He didn't really drink tea, personally, or coffee. He was more of a cocoa/latte kind of guy.
Although if it was tea she wanted...

"Alright. Hey Vern!" he said as hw walked up to the clerk at the counter.

"Yeah Takeru? Whattaya want?" he said.

"A Queen Of Hearts Red Tea for the lady, and a Cheshire Cat's Cream Cocoa for me, please." he said, placing the money on the counter.

"I hope you don't mind that I ordered a tea for you. It's sweet, with a nice red tinge to it. Never drank it myself, but it's supposed to be good, so I think you'll like it." he said as he sat back down at the table waiting for their order.

"Well, I won't fuss," she replied simply as she straightened herself on her chair, "Let's just say that I'm going to need it if my investigations continue at the rate they are going."

So his family heard the screams as well, huh?  Makes sense.  A lot of people must have heard it...  Adds a whole new weight to the failure of last night.  If they were close enough to hear, they could have been close enough to have been victimize by it...

"Well then, as overdue as it is, I may as well return that phone call.  I hope you don't mind it being in person.  Was there a reason that you needed to speak with me?"

"Huh. Sounds like a tough case. I'd ask if I could help ya, but I probably aren't cleared for it." he said.

"Well, I was going to ask you if you wanted to hang out sometime, and if you read that comic I lent you." he said.

"The story is definitely still in the rough," she replied rather quickly, almost as though she had become a reviewing critic, "It's too early to say what I think of it, but at least I'm intrigued enough to see where this is going. Oddly I find that I relate best to Blueberry Frost. As the level headed member of the team who wishes to continue to strive, I'm able to see a bit of myself in him. Ironic, since I would imagine myself more red in color than blue, really. A diamond in the rough that at least can get your attention long enough to want to continue following the story. I'm eager to observe how the next chapter follows, assuming issue 1 doesn't differentiate from issue 0 much."

It seemed as though she had some fun reading it.

He listened, and smiled. It was nice to hear some praise.
"Thank you." he said.

He thought very carefully before he told her what he told her next as he went to go get the orders for their drinks, bringing them back to the table.

He honestly felt bad about using her honest and kind nature to his selfish advantage, but it was best to prepare for the worst in case anything happened to him.
He had to hide his journal somewhere with someone who wouldn't try to look for it.

And Masako was frankly the only person he could ask.
Everyone else, well... just didn't seem to be an option. That notebook, he knew, could easily destroy their friendship.
But at the same time, he could hide it with Masako. It was both the best (and worst) place to hide it due to how it relied on a violation of common sense so stupid and crazy, most people would probably ignore it.

He then considered something else: What if someone took it from her for some reason?

He decided that the best way to avoid that problem was to make it seem like something nobody would ever consider important, save for him.

"...no. I can't drag her into this." he decided.
So he decided to change the subject.
"So how's the drink?" he asked her.
