[Hey, Retrospec. Have you gotten tired of seeing this face yet? Dante doesn't look too excited to be on camera, but once he's sure it's recording and isn't going to fall over, he'll take a step back and begin.]
Hey, guys. I'm pretty sure most of you probably know who I am, but for anybody that doesn't yet, the name's Dante.
By this point everyone's probably got the gist of what happened last month: monsters throughout the entire city. They showed up at the end of the convention in July and didn't disappear until we managed to fix all this unreality stuff near the end of August. It didn't matter whether you were part of the network or not, if you were young or old, if you knew how to defend yourself or not--all those monsters went after whoever looked like a good target.
This isn't the first time we've had to fight like that. Anyone who was here in May can tell you; we were all shrunk down to six inches tall and a lot of us had to defend ourselves from rats or spiders or other bugs that decided to investigate us. It's probably not the last time we'll have to fight like that.
Back in June we started weekly training sessions, practices where anybody can try out different weapons and learn how to fight. After this past month, I'd say we need it now more than ever.
If you just got access to Retrospec this month, come and check it out. You're going to get these flashes of memory whether or not you're trying to trigger them, and if you knew how to fight, it can be dangerous to remember in the wrong moment. Even if you didn't know how to fight before, we can teach you how to defend yourself so that if something like this happens again...
[He trails off before shaking his head.]
Anyways, practices are Sundays from 6pm to midnight at Utsuki Dojo in Tisse. If you've got any questions, let me know.
[Dante reaches forward to turn off the camera, but pauses before looking back.]
I mean it. The stuff that happened last month... if there's anything we can do to keep something like that from happening in the future, I want to do it. Even if that's just making sure that more people know how to protect themselves.
That's it.
[[ooc: with an accompanying log for fight practices here! As always feel free to use both this and the log as an all-purpose mingle; threadjack as desired, it's all good.]]

[He's really trying not to get them shut down! Dante actually tried to work with the law on this one...]
So far we haven't had any issues with people triggering magic at practice. Kind of a different skill than what we're working with.

I'd be willing to help, after I check things out.
