❧ Who Killed the Luministi Kid? continued

[luministimods]

[in the midst of the deserted town, a certain number of the cameras surveying the town happen to power down the moment a private video transmission is sent to all residents. coincidentally, this phenomenon occurs only in areas where the residents happen to be. when the transmission begins, a stark, bright hallway can be seen past the shoulders of a man, who is busy talking on a communications device. the camera’s too low to see his face properly--or the person recording doesn't realise it's this bad. from the redness of his face alone, it's easy to see he's not very happy.]

Just what does that man think he's doing?! He has gone too far this time! I demand you--[he falls silent]--yes. Yes, I see, but-- [another short pause] But I don't see why we must continue on this particular course of action! They are boun--[again, silence falls as the voice on the other line continues to lecture him] As you wish. Proctor out.

[once that conversation is over, the person watching him slips back behind the corner for cover, and thankfully isn't caught as the transmission ends abruptly]

[Sophie is in the Town Square again, though this time with a very large shopping bag set on the ground at her feet. while she is standing calmly enough, there are some subtle signs of the anxiety and exhaustion that she's been feeling lately. her hair isn't quite as neat as usual, and her dress looks a tad wrinkled. in fact, it's a new dress--forest green, edged in lace, but a very simple design overall. the skirt of it is very loose, clearly designed with plenty of leeway, for a reason that those looking closely at her might notice. at this point in her pregnancy, Sophie has started to show a small baby bump]

Hello again, everyone. [she clasps her hands in front of her as she talks, that calm expression becoming a bit more nervous. she glances around, as though concerned about being overheard, before she continues] Many of you asked me for charms before, and I've finished them all. If you'd like to meet me in the Town Square, I have them here.

This would also be a good opportunity to discuss other recent...events, as well. In person is best, I think. [she smiles somewhat grimly]

I look forward to talking to all of you. [reaching out to the CAT, she ends the transmission]

[ooc: Feel free to use this post as a mingling post! You can interact with Sophie, or you can interact with each other in the Town Square so that information can freely be shared. Also, feel free to notice the baby bump or not as you prefer~]
