[Today's recording hits your screen with a burst of colour and sweeping samba rhythms. There are two figures on the screen, both exquisitely dressed and masked. One of the two is dressed in a colourful Harlequin's garb, face hidden behind a traditional white mask. The other figure is dressed in more ruffles than a swarm of Flittle, the fabric dancing with every movement. There is no mystery who these two figures are though, not when you can recognise very familiar gold and green eyes.

(well, that and who but Riegfried and Soy would burst onto your screen like this?)]



Hello and welcome, and a slightly belated Happy New Year. We certainly hope it'll be a good one during which we can organise many new contests for you.


[As always, Soy is the first to start talking from behind a feathered, colourful mask.]


And speaking of contests -- did you know that this month a very interesting celebration is happening over in the Paldean region? Unfortunately, it never really managed to make its way over here, but it is nearly time for the yearly Carnival celebrations; a festivity of masks and costumes and joyful abundance, with laughter and music everywhere. Unfortunately, as much as we tried, we weren't able to take you there in person, so we thought we might do the next best thing. After all, you might never know when an experience like this might come in handy in the future.


[Soy winks from behind his mask and Riegfried smoothly cuts in.]


To bring the Carnival to all of you, we've decided to host another Contest on the 13th of February at our mansion, and we are inviting all of you, both to participate in the contest and to celebrate with us. The weather outside is quite dark, after all. Why not brighten it up a bit?

Ah, but I suppose we should tell you what this contest's theme will be. Or else, how can you put together those incredible performances you always dazzle us with?


[Riegfried and Soy look at each other for a moment, sharing a happy smile. (you assume, again, masks).]


Well, what other theme could we have but 'Masks'!

Whether it is colourful masks like we are wearing now, or the daily masks we all have when handling the outside world, disguises and the true self hidden behind them are a staple of the Carnival celebrations. And this time we ask you to dazzle us with your masked performances.

What sort of things does the word 'Masks' bring to mind? What kind of tale would you like to tell? We, for one, cannot wait to see!

Is anyone else troubled by the forms this world has forced us into?

I ask because I worked very hard to achieve the body I had in my own world. Not quite my end goal, but I was reaching it. And then...I had all my efforts snatched from me.

I feel my flesh aching and my heart beating all around my bones. It is concerning. I have to BREATHE and EAT and go to the BATHROOM and CHEW and none of this, I tell you, is something I would choose for myself.

I don't know what I'm accomplishing by posting this. I suppose I just wanted to release these feelings into the wild, like a disappointing hatchling.

Anyway.

Please tell me I am not being unreasonable.
