Hello.

As several before me have noted: given our circumstances, it is more crucial now than ever before that we cooperate and share any relevant information that could be of benefit to us all. However, the accessibility of this knowledge is also essential. If we have no sense of organization, then we add unnecessary frustration at least and risk at most.

I've accumulated a list of known locations and some general statistical information, which I encourage you to add to at your discretion. I believe it would be in our best interests to know the following about each of you as well:

1. Please list your name and ID.
2. Do you have any medical, technical, or mechanical skills?
3. Do you have any advanced skills in another area that you think would be of assistance?
4. Would you be comfortable using these skills if asked?

Also, I've taken the liberty to sort out how to increase security protocols. If you wish to know how this works, feel free to contact me here or privately.

Thank you.

[ ooc: So, head's up! Permission was granted to have Ryo fix up these filters for you all, but here's your catch (if you're interested): Ryo will be leaving a security loophole or "backdoor" as it were for himself (with your permission) to easily exploit so his ability to eavesdrop will be maximized. Please refer to his permission's post here if you're fine with him doing as much.

Also, if your character wouldn't agree to this? Please refer to the permissions anyhow if you eventually might be interested in this kind of technological eavesdropping. Thank you! ]

[Ryuji Sakamoto, delinquent at 17, thinks about this for a moment and thinks about the detention that followed getting kicked out of class, and how his mom was disappointed in him for getting to that point. Ugh.]

Yeah. Sensei made me recite all the readings from that chapter until I stopped laughing at the word penis. Or vagina. Or sperm.

Good times, man.

[ Ryo more-or-less spent a total of maybe or year in public education before they realized he was: 1. too smart, 2. on a fast-track. He'd cleared out higher education faster than most people could possibly record. Around ten years in school over all, minus his starting education with Akira.

Also, in that same year, 7-year-old Ryo was much too clever to get detention. Sure, he might have been shuffled into the office a few times when he was 6, but he learned how to hide his box cutter better. ]

That's a common trick.
It's the same principle as breaking down more complex terminology into morphemes so students will stop avoiding it.

[ No tied-tongues in his class after week one. You can't present anything worth a damn if you can't talk about it worth a damn. ]

Did it work?

[ Lol. ]

[ryuji]

[He looks through the smartwatch again, trying to figure out if there's a dictionary feature in this goddamn thing.

No?

Okay, because seeing the word morphemes only makes him force himself to think that it's definitely not morphmemes and that Ryo isn't talking about highly convoluted jokes on Featherman.

And he doesn't know which one would make Ryo look like more of a nerd, honestly.]

Mostly. I mean

I still kinda laugh

But it's mostly in my head instead

[ You know, you could just ask him Ryuji.

He's the closest thing you'll get to a dictionary. Or maybe it is more accurate to say an encyclopedia. Either way. He's just a nerd. ]

Close enough.

Let's hope you never have to present on that for their sakes.

[ryuji]

[Looks left, then right. Then left, again.]

Congrats

We've just had a throw down, yo

It's time to play the PENIS game
