Addressing those in Paixao

[paixaomayor.livejournal.com]

The Mayor of Paixao speaking.

Firstly, I would like to welcome all of those who have been in Paixao. The greeting is probably late for many of you but... I hope that you are somewhat enjoying your stay here.

My secretary has informed me that several of you have filed complaints regarding Paixao. Because of the mass number of them, I think it would be much more efficient to answer questions and complains using the Journal Message Boards. Through this post, comment with any questions and/or complaints and I will try to respond to them.

Oh, I have such a terrible complaint. Why on earth are we stuck here, why, oh, why can't we leave?

Your mother was a whore, and you're not a proper mayor, etcetera, etcetera.

Mmm. I do hope you can handle that sort of complaint. <3

[paixaomayor.livejournal.com]

Ma'am, you of all people should be able to know what I am capable of... I'm sure he can put in a good word or two for me.

There were some sorts of transportation that was available a while back but I am afraid that it is taking a while to fix. It is unfortunate that it will take at least a couple months... Transportation is not a simple things these days!

And if you have a complaint with my mother, please say so directly to her.
Thank you for your cooperation.

This place has a Mayor...? Since when?

[paixaomayor.livejournal.com]

I've been attending business elsewhere so was not present for the past month or so. Paixao has always had a mayor.

[weeatbodies.livejournal.com]

The weather lately has been ridiculous; you people do control it, don't you? And the fact that everything is manufactured here is just disgusting. Why make the effort to have a false landscape when you could have real plants and animals?

[paixaomayor.livejournal.com]

I have people who control it, yes. I will be sure to sent some more people to check on it. I apologize that you are displeased with the false landscape.

... A mayor?

I got a question! How did I end up in Paixao?

And how come people from different times are here too?

What are lumens?

What are Nobodies?

How do we get out of here?

[paixaomayor.livejournal.com]

I have no idea how you ended up in Paixao, child. I think you should know better than I.
Different times? What are you talking about?

Lumens are natives of this island.
Nobodies... Is there such a thing? You have quite the imagination I see.

There is transportation installed in various places on the island that you used to be able to use to "get out of here" but they are currently being renovated.

[cowardly-hero.livejournal.com]

Where's all the grub and other animals?

[paixaomayor.livejournal.com]

Paixao is almost completely artificial. "Grub" and animals (other than the aliens that find their way here) do not exist here. What we have are lumens and a couple exceptions.

[tinkerzedomi.livejournal.com]

I couldn't help but notice that you mentioned there being some form of transportation out here... and also that it's not working/being renovated. How long is this going to take?

...Do you need any assistance with regards to getting these systems up and running again? I'd be more than happy to help you if it meant I got to go back home to my husband.

[paixaomayor.livejournal.com]

A couple months or so from the looks of it now: it's difficult to tell...
Assistance would be appreciated however will not be taken from aliens. My apologizes for the inconvenience.

[lawleit.livejournal.com]

Is there any sort of organized form of police department or law enforcement native to this city? If so, how might one get in contact with them?

[paixaomayor.livejournal.com]

The city had two at one point-- one much more undercover than the other. We no longer have a local police due to some events that occured before foreigners became to come in masses to the island... I understand that you would first need to find out which individuals are part of the group before coming in contact with them. I do not know their names or faces you see...

[6illusions.livejournal.com]

There was supposedly an attack on this city, roughly a month ago. Who were the attackers and how was it handled?

[paixaomayor.livejournal.com]

The attacks are still being investigated and the information is still classified. If possible, the reports should be known to the public after the attack is fully investgated. But as you should know, these investigates take some time.

[notquitedracula.livejournal.com]

One: Why do these 'lumens' seem to dislike me? I've been attacked by no less than seven.

Two: What were the strange gray creatures that attacked the city?

Three: Why do people suddenly disappear as if they've never been here?

[paixaomayor.livejournal.com]

Maybe you have a distasteful smell? But that is the way it is with foreigners I suppose.
Gray creatures? Oooh, you mean those related to the attacks? That is still under investigation and the information is still classified.

Three: That must be your imagination or some amazing form of magic.

[terra-creation.livejournal.com]

So, ok. We're aliens? Huh... alright well, I guess I can live with that. 'been called worse.

Now I'm not saying I completely hate this place or anything, it's got its interesting quirks. But hey... this food... what gives? It tastes funny. Where do you get it? Seriously, do you send some of your secretaries or whatever out to hunt those "lumens" or whatever they are? They have some strange power or something that they desolve into veggies when they die?

I suppose it would make sense for this funny tasting stuff. Maybe it's just the Wild Ginger. Ah, whatever.

I'm sure I'll think of something else. Got enough time to.

[paixaomayor.livejournal.com]

(( Pretend this isn't a late response ))

'Alien' as in 'foreigner'.

Your sense of humor is amusing. I do not sent any of my secretaries to hunt down "lumen" only to have them desolve into vegetables and such. I have never seen such a case. I apologize that the food is not to your tastes. We get imported in a world that few in Paixao should have heard of...

[sparkplasma.livejournal.com]

Ah - I have a few questions, though I don't mean to trouble you.

1 - You mentioned that transportation out of the city is under renovations, and that's all right. Can you give us a date when that'll be finished, though? Many of us really do need to get home as soon as possible.

2 - Following my previous question, where will we be able to depart from when it's finished? Just so we'll know when that time rolls around.

3 - Where can we find a map of the whole area including outside the city?

Thank you for your time, and if I think of any more questions, I'll be sure to write them here, too.

[paixaomayor.livejournal.com]

1- A date? That would be pretty hard to set... Firstly, not everyone measures time using the same units so such a question is meaningless for the general. It will be several months in Paixao time, but it might be less than a second in the world that you come from... or something in that realm.

[belongtoraito.livejournal.com]

Ah! Mayor-san~ Misa needs to find someone very precious to her but she doesn't know where she can go report! Is there a police station anywhere? She really really misses him!

[paixaomayor.livejournal.com]

My apologies-- Paixao currently does nto have a local police station.

[isaacmustdie.livejournal.com]

Perhaps YOU would know if a certain Venus Adept has passed through one of your city's lovely gates...? I have a score to settle with him regarding the death of my late and much-beloved sister...

[paixaomayor.livejournal.com]

I am almost positive the individual has not passed through the gates as of yet.

[smokes-sake.livejournal.com]

first, the weather sucks, I got caught in a goddamn blizzard!!

second, this place is creepy.

third, and I didn't think this place had a fucking mayor

fourth, Do you have any atm machines around here?

[paixaomayor.livejournal.com]

Although I do question your manner, I will answer the last one with a 'no'.

[hypnotistsnake.livejournal.com]

Ssso, thisss isss your' man-village then? It'sss rather remarkable, very pleasssent, but why are there no plantsss in here? It feelsss very ssstrange to have been on the ground for ssso long.

[paixaomayor.livejournal.com]

I have answered this question previously-- it is just a part of the culture around here.

[icemirrors.livejournal.com]

If there is a constant influx of people coming into the city from the Gates, why hasn't the city started bursting at the seams? No one ever leaves, and I notice that you already note that the channels of departure are currently unavailable. Where do all the people go?

[paixaomayor.livejournal.com]

That I suppose will remain a mystery. The world is full of possibilities it seems... Where everyone goes is a question that would be better answered if you asked other foreigners as opposed to me.
