❧ Whispers From Different Worlds
[any and all conversations being held on the CATs suddenly cease all at once, and in the next instant, a little alarm begins to sound. none of the townspeople appear fazed by the strange happening, writing if off as yet another malfunction that has plagued the communications systems in town for the past week.
however, appearing only to the residents' CATs is a video transmission featuring someone whose face is obscured in the shadows, but from the timbre of the voice, it's a young man.]
Please be patient! We're going to help you, but we need a little more time. Keep an eye out for a message from--!
[the transmission cuts out suddenly and is replaced with a picture of a blue screen that simply reads: "Signal Lost." it takes a few moments for that screen to go away, but what--or who--appears next may surprise the residents...]

❧ Plot Details: Whispers From Different Worlds
- Welcome to Luministi's Fourth Wall event! As you might have guessed from the above IC portion of this entry, this event will be part of the game's canon and it's all thanks to those malfunctioning CAT devices! However, visiting characters will not appear in the town itself. They will appear in video transmissions alone.
For this entry alone, the vidscreens are still down and most of the CAT functions are down as well with the exception of the video function, enabling residents to communicate with visiting characters, and visitor can also communicate with other visitors as well. Think of it like signals being crossed. And to make things a little easier for everyone, the video transmissions are clear and normal as they would be any other day and don't feature the strange solarised/flipped quirk that they have had for the past week. In any entries made after this one on until the end of the plot, the CATs functions will return to what they were like at the start of the plot.
For those of you new to the game, the CATs, or Communications Audiovisual Transmitters, are personalized communication devices about the size of your palm, and for this day only, visiting characters will have this device. From a video broadcast standpoint, you'll be able to see the the immediate surroundings of the person you're talking to. More information about the CATs can be found on the FAQ page.
In-game time, this event lasts a day, but you can tag for however long you want!
Ah, one more thing! If visiting characters app into the game following this entry's events, memories about what was said and who you spoke to will be able to come to you upon proper entry into the town, but not before then. Characters in-game already will be able to remember their time talking to the visitors and will be able to react to them after the fact.
So yes! Tag in and threadhop in this entry as much as you like! If you have any questions, please feel free to leave an OOC comment here or PM me.
Hope you all have fun and welcome again~

The Aperture SCIence Center is LOcated in scenic--[Oops, the sound of machinery powering up just drowned that out. Oh, well. A two-pronged "hand" of sorts picks up the CAT, plugging it into a receptacle on the wall. It's now on the scientists' network.
She can see you now, Fuu.]
Well, at least there's that.
What sort of PLACE is that?
[Luministi. No records found. Let's change that, shall we?]
no subject
[She full of wide-eyed wonder, and is more interested in getting answers than giving them.]
That is really amazing- can you tell me what kind of software are you running?
no subject
HeeeeeeLLoooooooooo?
Is anyone. TheRE?
[Frankly, the object in view looked inanimate until it started moving the red circle that was its… eye. A small red dot from a laser scans the CAT's screen.]
Excuse mE… My FAuLt.
[Again a small hissing noise came over the device.]
CrItiCAl--
[The tome of voice which the object had been speaking in changed to something a bit more… chipper.]
HeLLo~ I aM turreT b-b-b-becky.

Hello! Fuu Hououji here.

The Aperture SCIence Enrichment Center is currently reCRUiting new testers for its Aperture SCIence Handheld DUAL PORtal Device. Would you be INterested in testing for the Aperture SCIence Handheld DUAL PORtal Device? Then you would see the Enrichment Center for yourself.[Or at least, you would see the test chambers.
Don't get her wrong, testing with {SUBJECT NAME HERE} is satisfactory, but test subjects that don't try to escape the Enrichment Center and KILL her would be a pleasant change of pace.]
no subject
I'm not sure I understand your answer. Could you please describe the 'Aperture Science Handheld Dual Portal Device'?
[Wow, that's a mouthful. And- eeeeeee! She's talking to a robot! How cool!]

The Aperture SCIence Handheld DUAL PORtal Device can be used to create inter-dimensional gates between locations. These portals have been PROven to be perfectly safe to human test subjects as well as all Aperture SCIence technologies.no subject
Human test subjects and ...inter-dimensional gates? [Sounds like gates that are about as science-fiction as time-travel and other worlds.]
Do you know about what is happening in Luministi?
no subject
The Enrichment Center has no inforMAtion regarding that location.no subject
Mmm, well I guess you only know about what your programmer inputted.
What can you tell me about inter-dimensional gates?
