[ Hello, residents of Fortuna. This feed has turned on in what seems to be the middle of a conversation. Its participants seem to be discussing something Quite Serious, if their tone is to be believed. Let's listen in, shall we? ]

Y'know everyone's gotta think Jack and a loaf of bread's a good idea now, right? Ever since Valentine's and all.

I still say bread would do better with butter. But bread gets around almost as much as Greece. Let's see there's Hungary, Norway, France. Anyone else I'm missing?

Only the ones I told you about before, yeah? It's probably not as many as you could pick for America. I mean, there's the obvious one, right? Though I guess that didn't end too well.

[ There's a pause here, like he might be referencing something. ] Tons of people are gonna wanna pair him off with like, England. And there's girl England too. I bet people'd pair them together, actually. Plus she definitely has a thing for France, too.

I see her a lot more with France, eh. And eh... I know it's different for countries but America/England still seems too much like incest.

Something to be said for China/Stocking, eh? And even anyone brave enough to make a move like Yukiteru and Yuno.

Yeah, they had a pretty interesting post for Valentine's. They weren't the only ones either. Would've been pretty funny if the Doctor had made some kinda love confession to his ship, yeah? The TARDIS, that's what it's called. I'm gonna write that one down.

[ That evokes a laugh from Marco. ]

I'd totally be letting my pupils off easy if I didn't say Clive and Sasuke. That one's interesting. So is Clive and Flora, they've got some chemistry. And like, what about kismesis or whatever it's called? Shizuo and Sasuke could totally count for that.

Aye, Clive and Sasuke seem to get around too, eh? [ Nods in complete agreement with his little bro. ] Shizuo and Terezi too, don't you think? At least as far as kismesis go. And you have to have Sakura and Naruto and that new guy... Bolin? He and Sora are pretty cute together. And speaking of cute, Adam and Makoto, right?

How about Yuuko and Watanuki? I bet he'd get along with Yukiteru too, yeah?

Seems legit to me. [ Strokes chin in thought. ] What about sillier ones like Karkat and possums?

Okay, if you're gonna go there, Brooke and underwear. What's the deal there anyway?

He missed his chance while he was alive so making up for lost time I guess. How about Molly and Jay?

Seriously? Never thought of it. I'll add them to the list. [ His list is growing more and more impressive. ] D'you have anything for Denzel Crocker?

[Coughs.] Ryoko… Oh but Gellert too, come to think of it. They can agree that fairies are real and annoying or something.

[ There's some scratching and shuffling here, which is indicative of Hong Kong writing that down pretty quickly. ] Any others come to mind?

Hundre— Ah… is your comm on? Oi oi they're gonna see what we did to the ceiling!

That's cool, they're bound to find out eventually. Hey, Marco, d'you think people ship us too?

Oh, if they do, we should give them a show, eh? [ Pirate leer and leans in suggestively as he turns it off. ]

Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

Yeah, in a poem. [ He shakes his head, even if it can't be seen. ] Pretty hilarious.

A poem? Jeez, you really beat everyone out! I'd have expected more love poems on Valentine's Day. You won there!

It was a pretty [ ... ] special poem, that's for sure.

Yeah, I wouldn't expect anything less from the Scientists. Although I'm still not sure it was them that day. I mean, we've had people who were super good with technology before, right? Maybe somebody finally figured out how to hack into feeds.

Who knows that much about all of us and technology at the same time?

[ The only person he can think of who knows most of these people and is good with technology is...

himself.... ]

Yeah, that's the thing. And it's been a couple months, so if it's not the Scientists, whoever it is could've left already!

Maybe you're right. Still, I'd like to know who did it.

[ So he can exact his revenge.... I mean, so he can calmly discuss with them why it was a bad idea to post that poem. w;A;w ]

Me too. Maybe somebody should do some detective work, right?

That could be fun. [ ... he's such a kid. ]

You've got a personal stake in it. You should check it out!

Yeah, it looks like I do, doesn't it?

[ Well then, he'll just put on his deerstalker and go sleuthing around, won't he? ]

Well, I do, too. We could do a Holmes-and-Watson thing or something, haha.

I don't mind teaming up. [ He's a team player! Of course, he probably wants to be Holmes.... ]

[ Jack doesn't really care as long as he figures something out!! ] Yeah, maybe it's too much for one person alone. This place is weird enough for it to have been a big conspiracy!

Yeah, it could be pretty huge when you think about it. I mean, how many scientists do we know of now?

I think there's- [ a pause ] six? Plus there's the Spectavi guys but I don't think they know anything, they're just weird.

Well, there's gotta be more than six, yeah? No way six people could do all this. [ Physically speaking. ]

I don't know. If it was hacking it could only be one person working really hard!

Why's that?

It's not that hard if you know that much about how technology works. I still haven't figured these things out, but if somebody else did, maybe they managed to break into the entire network! [ he sounds pretty fascinated by the whole thing ]

But considering it's all so advanced...it's probably the scientists, when I think about it.

I dunno, some people learned how to use these things pretty well. [ There's a tapping sound, like he's rapping on the surface of his comm. ] It could be one of us.

Yeah, it's still possible! Got to be either a super-genius or somebody who's been here a really long time. And then they'd still have to be smart.
