Seventy-Seventh Launch

[infinitejustice]

[Video -- Open post this time!]

[Athrun has not been seen much in the past 24 hours. He's been out searching for bombs, getting food, or getting rest. Finally, once 24 hours had passed, Athrun had gone home to get himself cleaned up.

So when his face appears on the screen, he has that fresh shower look.]

As you might have heard, the bomb threat was almost fully neutralized. We were able to find and disarm all but one of the bombs, which was apparently well-hidden inside a slot machine. But no one was seriously hurt in that plot, and the damage should be fixed quickly. I'm sorry for the worry that all of this caused.

[Video -- Locked to PGC]

All the bombs have been disposed of, except for two. The fuses have been cut, so there's no danger of a detonation. I plan to investigate the bombs and see if we can get any insight into who made them based on the structure and technology used. Would anyone like to give me a hand with this?

[Video -- Locked to Shinn, Lacus, and Miki]

I'm at the house right now. Come stop by when you get the chance.

Will it be alright for Miki to do that? [ Her concern is easily seen in her expression and soft tone. ] To come visit you, Athrun-kun?

[infinitejustice]

Of course. It's safe now, and I'm still in one piece. Just come see it for yourself if you don't believe me.

[honeygatherer]

Okay, but Miki has a lot of things to carry right now, so it might take Miki a while.

A lot of things to carry? Like what?

[One bomb, when he'd threatened to destroy the entire building. All in all, this is a win for them. Thank Etro.]

How much do you think you can get from them? Do people leave signatures when they build things like that?

[Video; PGC Lock]

[infinitejustice]

Not exactly, but you can still learn where a person might have come from based on how the bomb was built. Especially here, in a place where people from all sorts of different worlds meet.

Would it do us any good to know that, though? It's not like we'd get the name of a world from how the bombs are constructed, so we can't go and ask for anyone from that world to see if they built them.

Athrun ... Are you hurt?

[ Nods. ] I am on my way ...

[infinitejustice]

[Athrun gives Lacus the most reassuring smile he can muster.]

I'm fine. I'd just like a chance to relax, and having some friends around would help me do that.

I am glad ... so very glad ...

... Shinn? Is he alright?

[ She was still worried ... she won't smile until she can see for herself that he is fine]

I will be there soon. Wait for me, okay?

[Text] I am sorry for being everywhere right now

[cobraaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa]

Enjoy your victory while you can.

[Text] No apologies necessary, this has been great!

[infinitejustice]

I'll be sure to do that. Like I said, you can't expect to always win.

[Text]

[cobraaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa]

No. You can't. I hope you'll remember that in the future.

[Whoa, you took care of that bomb threat? Not bad!]

Great job. It's good to hear no one was hurt. What about that guy behind it? Did someone catch him?

[VOICE]

[infinitejustice]

Unfortunately, no -- no one was able to figure out exactly where he is, so he's still at large. He has to be somewhere within the city limits, though, so I'm sure the search will continue for now.

[VOICE]

[glaciates]

Really? And you're sure he's still in the city? Do you need any help?

[Well, he was planning on leaving today... But it won't hurt to stick around a bit longer.]

[video]

[impulsives]

...Well, at least its just one slot machine.

[Guess who's not feeling that great right now.]

[video]

[infinitejustice]

And that's easy to replace. I'm thinking about chipping in some money to the Game Corner to do that, too.

How are you feeling?

[video]

[impulsives]

'Been through worse.

[Aside from some sore back, he's good. :|b

Except his mood is pretty much shot to hell and back.]

[video, PGC] wellp late

[tapestodiane]

Good work, Athrun. What kind of information do you think you can glean from them?

[video, PGC]

[infinitejustice]

At the very least, the level of technology they're accustomed to working with. That could at least narrow down the list of suspects.

[video, PGC]

[tapestodiane]

Anything helps. Sometimes the small details are what makes the difference.

B... bombs...!?

[infinitejustice]

You didn't see the broadcast yesterday?

[10yen_idol]

A... a broadcast?! I was busy trying to stop Iori from-

Athrun, there were really bombs!?
