[locked to sutoku alliance] video, un: levirage
Hello, everyone!
[on the screen is a polite-looking person with messy green hair and purple eyes. they give a wave and smile with their whole face from behind their white-rimmed glasses.]
My name is Leviathan Astrape—Levi, if you'd all like—and let me be the first to welcome you to the Sutoku Alliance! What we do here is a little more up in the air than other factions, but I think that just gives us the freedom to be who we are. If you're not sure what to do next, just keep your ear to the ground and get to know as many people as possible! It really can't hurt in the long term, and it's always better to know more than to know less.
[they don't sound stiff as they're saying it, like they have some practice with public presentations like this, but anyone watching the tracking of their eyes could probably tell that they're reading off cue cards.]
And on that note, we have a few names to know. They'll spend some time introducing themselves, I'm sure, but please keep an eye out for Artemy, Kim, Xingqiu, Yuri, Ydris, Marie, and Cloud. [a pleasant smile as they get to the end of the list.] Please also look out for Emily Dyer, especially if you need any kind of medical assistance or you're interested in helping out there. And our lieutenants within the alliance are Matoba Seiji and, of course, the death-defying Sakamoto Ryouma.
[they gesture in front of them with an open palm towards the person behind the camera.]
You're coming in during exciting times, everyone. We just had a bit of a shake-up at the Tanabata festival. The daughter of an important financial magnate has been kidnapped by an enemy of Toraguma, and though we haven't heard any orders from the Daitengu quite yet, I think we all know how things like this play out.
[and bringing both their hands in front of them, at waist level, they smile and give a polite little bow.]
So please, take this time to get to know your fellow alliance members. [they look towards the camera, then glance at their lapel, where they have a pin with the kanji for sutoku. they laugh like they knew they were forgetting something, and look back up towards everyone else.] And don't forget to pick up your official faction pin from most places within our area if you're interested.
[they wave goodbye, then stand there for a couple seconds. without the feed cutting, they walk forward towards the camera and start talking much more casually.]
Was that okay? Getting those names right was harder than I expected, and I even cut out a lot of the last names. I don't know how you did it the first time.
Hehe, y' know, I wondered about that "death defyin'" part on paper, but hearin' ya say it like that makes it sound pretty heroic! And honestly, I'm pretty sure ya did way better with those names, now that I'm thinkin' about it...
[ anyone who isn't new here will recognise the voice that responds to them from behind the camera, especially with that accent. ryouma is pretty sure he botched a couple names last time, mostly for that same reason. he might be able to fake it and cover it when he's speaking his own language, but when it comes to foreign-sounding words all bets are off. ]
So that was perfect! I think ya gotta real knack for this sorta thing!
[ which... hmmm, take that with a grain of salt because this man long predated show business, but still!! judging by his tone, ryouma is very pleased since all his coaching and cheerleading and cue card holding paid off, in his opinion! sure the rest of the faction will agree... right? ]
((this is a mingle post! feel free to threadjack and get to know everyone within the faction. and thank you again to min for contributing ryouma here!))

Ha ha okay. 2010. Thank you, but I'm not looking to acquire third hand antiques for this particular project. It is custom and built to spec.

please don't unleash the robotpocalyse on hell, donatello, he has enough stress even if it would be cool.]Antiques?
[ 2010 is technically still the future to him in his mind, despite the time travel meaning he's seen past that before. you can take the man out of 1865... ]
Why, what year is it where you're from? I also know it's possible t' get just about anything, even from outside this world, so if ya can't find local, ya still got options. Could get a little pricey though, maybe, but that's the sorta thing I'm workin' on!

[ he has good news though! ]
If ya put the work in around here, the boss can help ya out with findin' things like that that went missin'.
[ maybe even some stuff he didn't ask for... ]

[ fake? a lie? relative, at least. ]
—I figure even if we're here a long time it's real easy for us t' pop right back home right where we left it, so that doesn't mean anybody's runnin' off with it.
[ because he's thinking ahead for once and assuming that might be the next question because donatello is clearly concerned about his stuff. ]
Other one is it's all in a vault somewhere, but it doesn't seem very likely. The amount of energy involved it'd take to bring over everything and then lock it all up without anyone knowing is way more costly than simply bringing things into this world as needed.

-all right. I need to go through this list in chronological order. First: time being what it is? Are we saying it's outside the ordinary? Are we even on planet Earth?
