[Good day city-zens, it's User Name Junpei here with another paranoid rant about god only knows what. Just kidding, he's laser focused his paranoia these days, so, ahem:]
Hi, uh, I'm Junpei, if you didn't know. [A brief pause, while he internally laments that he will never get his goddamn codename, but okay. He's made peace with it. He holds up two fingers.] Two things.
[He leans forward and his head and shoulders go out of frame for a moment, while the rustling of papers can be heard somewhere beyond the camera. Should he have gathered his materials beforehand? Yes, for sure, but such is life. Enjoy this view of his t-shirt while he swears and drops something back there...
When he leans back into frame he doesn't hold anything up just yet.]
First, since it looks like people are going missing now, do you guys think we should have... I don't know, a system? To keep track of each other? I don't mean something like the buddy system— [Although he doesn't NOT mean the buddy system, always investigate mysterious liminal cities with a friend!!--] —But... something. Besides running around looking for signs every time. We need to figure out where they're going.
[He's convinced they're still in the city but Taken Somewhere, you see. Where, though... mmm. Workshopping that. He sits there looking grim for a beat, then sighs himself out of it and lifts up one of his papers.
It has beautiful birds drawn on it. Some people may recall his canary symbol idea from Setsuna's meeting, ahem...]
Second is... this. Somebody out there's gotta be better at drawing a bird than me. If you see these hung up anywhere... be careful of whatever's around. [Another beat.] And, uh, if anyone wants to contribute to the cause, I'll pay you in beer and gummies? Normal gummies.
[sorry, he has no edibles. also never mind that one can get beer and gummies without joining his danger birds cause. sign up for art club!!!]

Yours is probably easier for transferring to places honestly but you asked for artists.
Also I think I remember which box Gregor put his item back into so if we can find the key maybe we can see if that reset too?
He was putting it back when I took mine out and he was really good about it so if I can help find out what happened I’d like to.
no subject
[He's over here drawing balls with feet and Don is drawing weird monsters, they need all the real talent they can get--]
you saw him at the bank though, that first day it opened? i dunno about the key... can you pick a lock?
no subject
Thank you, I mean it’s probably a bit much for a warning symbol, that’s more like graphic design stuff but I got carried away shading!
It was a few days after, I went to check it out the day it opened but I couldn’t bring myself to check my box for a few days - curiosity got the better of me.
I’m not great at picking locks but there has to be someone here who is. People were talking about doing a heist a few days ago, right?
no subject
why would anyone need to do a heist in a place like this... whatever. maybe we can open all the ones around his to reach in from above and knock it out.
and uh, you okay? after seeing your box?
no subject
Yeah that’s a good point, that would be the simple way of going about marking places, I was assuming graffiti because that sticks better. I wonder if this place has sticker paper because that would make it really easy…
I don’t know, it already gives us almost everything we might need. I think I might know someone able to pick locks and if he doesn’t want to get involved I can probably get him to teach me.
The information it made me share was private and I wasn’t actually ready to disclose it so I’m not exactly happy about it but it could have been worse.
no subject
but yeah, ask your lockpicker buddy? that'd be a real help.
and.....good. i mean some people were pretty fucked up by it, so. good to not be fucked up.
no subject
Has anyone volunteered to be potentially cuffed yet?
[ Wills scale of “could have been worse” is pretty broken considering how bad things have been in the past, so he is actually pretty fucked up over everything, but he’s not going to own up to that publicly to people he barely knows ]If he’s not okay with helping there has to be someone else who can at least.
Yeah exactly.
no subject
heh, do you think the kiosk would tell us how to pick a lock? subtle, right?
[This is at least 8 out of 10 parts a joke, but what if.....]
no subject
I meant to get back to you sooner but I got distracted, sorry.
Lock picking might be a bust unless the kiosk idea works out, I tried to contact the guy who knew but he’s missing. He was just gone from the network when I went looking and he had a little set up on the roof and that vanished too so I checked where he was staying and it’s like nobody was ever there. Which is weird because I live across the hall and unless someone went in when I was asleep really quietly or did it the two times I was actually out I didn’t hear a thing, no sounds of anything being moved, nothing. So there’s a new mystery.
no subject
yours didn't say anything before he disappeared?
