[Omi's wearing a broad smile this time when he hits up the general populace, and he's holding a digital camera in one hand. There's a distinct wolflike quality to him these days.]

Ah, hi everyone. I'm Omi Fushimi. I was looking for a way to kind of give back to everyone here, and I came up with an idea... well, half of one. I'll need help with the second half, I think.

See, I'm a photographer, for lack of a better way to put things. I was thinking it might be nice to document people who are here, what they did back home, what they do now, their experiences... Like a big community yearbook or something. That way as people come and go, nobody will be forgotten, and we won't forget where we started.

I'm not the most compelling writer ever, so if anyone wants to help me with the interviews I'd be grateful. I'm mostly in it for the portraits, sure, but I could do some great candids while people are being interviewed!

So if anyone is interested in helping with interviews or wants to be interviewed or photographed, just let me know. I'll arrange everything else.

Thanks for your time! Stay safe, and take care.

To be honest, I don't think I would be any good at giving interviews, so I don't think I can help much. The idea sounds really nice though!

[pastregrets]

[Omi flashes a sheepish grin.]

Maybe I can just take your picture?

[timenace]

Eh? Do you want to?

[ Though maybe that was a silly question, considering... ]

I guess that makes sense if you want to include everyone here. What kind of picture did you want to take?

[ Extremely awkward yearbook style picture? Sougo fucking around town doing not much at all? Some cool magic using action shot maybe? ]

[pastregrets]

Well, yes. I'd like to take pictures of as many people as possible. And you have a nice smile, so I think you'd put people at ease.

[Omi looks thoughtful for a moment.]

I do some pretty normal portraiture right now, so I'd like to branch out a little. Action shots, candids, themed shoots... that kind of thing. I did promotional photography for my theater troupe back home, so more like that?

I find myself rather liking this idea. [ A small chuckle. ]

Memories are the foundation of one's humanity, at times.

[pastregrets]

I'd appreciate any participation. I just want people to feel connected.

[scatmaam]

I'll gladly bring in some friends, as well.

[pastregrets]

I'd like to take pictures of as many people as possible, so if you have some time I'd like to, yes.

[substances]

Don't think I'd be too good for taking pics of or writing anything, but 's a real cool idea! They did that thing with the wreaths in Dorchacht, but uh...I dunno, think it'd be nicer to have something everybody could see.

[besides, there was something nostalgic about leafing through a photo album. it's something that he's always wanted to do, truth be told; it gave off a strong sense of belonging somewhere.]

If you need help carrying equipment or something, wouldn't mind giving you a hand with that! Can take a lot at once no problem.

[pastregrets]

I wanted something a little less melancholy than all of that. Anyway, I'd like to take as many pictures as possible, so even if you just help, I'm afraid a candid might get snapped...

[He says it with a little laugh.]

[tothemetal]

Oh, jeez. [Omi's laughing but the big guy is sounding genuinely concerned by this possibility, having taken this too seriously like the enormous idiot he is.] You can delete them though, right? 's not gonna waste any shots or nothing?

I wouldn't mind having my photo taken. It's a nice idea. I can try to bring my Bonded along, too... though he may be less enthusiastic about it than I am.

["May be."]

[pastregrets]

Now that you mention it, Bonded duos and more would be really interesting to document. I won't force anybody, of course.

[plasticasshole]

Of course not.

[Which is to say, Connor will absolutely force Hank along for the ride.]

We've been Bonded for around a year and a half now. We've been through a lot together... I'm sure that will come through in your photos.

Do people actually like yearbooks? I've never been sure. Seems a mixed bag.

[ Crowley, answering exactly zero of the questions asked! ]

[pastregrets]

Maybe not... it's really just the first thing that popped into my mind. I think it'll feel more like a magazine spread than anything else.

[sparkofgoodness]

[ A magazine? Hmmmm! ]

Thinking of just interviews, or fun stuff too?

Sounds like a good plan. [Especially after losing their Director...] I ain't a writer either, but if there's nobody else I can try?

[pastregrets]

[Do not remind him that she's gone. Do not.

But get a laugh out of how Omi sounds both embarrassed and completely brazen when he says the following:]

I'd want to photograph you too, Juza.

[sneaksweet]

[It's better if they simply do not speak of it.]

Me? I'm just gonna scowl the whole time.

I'd be reaaaaaal lousy at doin' any sort of interview but I'm totally down for any pictures! The only ones I've got on this thing are selfies 'n stuff but they've got that weird brown filter, so I wouldn't mind havin' a couple copies that, uh... show everything off.

[pastregrets]

[Omi beams.]

I'm used to doing portraiture, but I've also done work for ads and some other things. I can go for any kind of feeling you want, if you have something in mind. We'll play around with concepts.

Re: video;

[synchroswim]

Hey, those work too! S'just a bummer to lose all the color I've got going on to the filters, you know?

_{[he seems delighted by the prospect though, if the way the small fins on his ears flare out. a chance to be a big doofy ham for the camera? sign him up.]}

Have you ever taken anything in the dark?
