Everyone!
I've got good news! You're forgiven! The angel I summoned said so himself; God would definitely forgive you in a heartbeat because man's heart is weak, as is his mind, and we're all, uh, susceptible to the workings of the Evil One, and even as we wallow in our filth and sin, we -- You know what, forget God; I forgive you.
Seriously, no one could possibly blame you for what happened last week even if some of us were lucky enough to be scorpion magnets. Misery has it right - the important thing is to make sure that it doesn't happen again. If you all missed the announcements from the higher-ups, the people who were affected most severely were Scorpios. ...If you don't know what that means, in modern times on Earth - that's the 2000s - they were born when the Sun was in the sector of the sky dominated by the constellation Scorpio. This makes no sense if you were born outside Earth or in a time when we didn't go in for ridiculous things like pretending arbitrary sky-pictures meant anything about our lives, but the important thing is that the sun transitions into Scorpio beginning on October 23rd.
Guess what last week was.
The next sign is Sagittarius. The sun will shift into its sector on November 22nd.
So let's clear a few things out of the way - Everyone who was afraid, can you report in with your sign? Same thing if you were a scorpion magnet, though maybe that's more of a subjective thing. And everyone who's a Sagittarius, do you mind if we tie you to your beds from November, oh, 18th-ish to the 23rd? Your choices are (Yes/Of course/Definitely). If your name is Jun, (That's kinda kinky) works, too. If you don't know your sign, Sagittarius goes from late November into late December - so the end of a harvest season into winter in the Northern hemisphere, and the end of spring into summer in the South.
I'll keep track of the data. It's kinda my thing.
Oh -- this has nothing to do with anything, but I'm working in the computer labs of the university now. Drop by if you ever need anything fixed or if you just want to say hi.

Re: Video
It doesn't make sense - from a different planet, the position of the sun wouldn't align with the right constellations. ...Actually, you wouldn't even have the same sun.
It might be like the demons. It could be more convenient to take a construct that we've crafted for ourselves and hijack it for a different purpose. Since most of us are from Earth in the 1900s or so, the Western zodiac is an easy template to base a series of attacks off of. It makes it seem more mysterious and spooky or something.
Slotting everyone from outside Earth into the template would be pretty arbitrary - you wouldn't have the same seasons or the same days in a year, so you'd have to map it out pretty roughly. But I guess every planet should have a parallel that's close enough. So if you were born in a time when whatever foliage you have is coming into bloom, that might be equivalent to our spring, even if your foliage is like, arctic man-eating killer plants or something. So we could put you under Pisces or Aries.

Oh... I see, sorry.
...I guess it's hard to know for sure when there's so many more possibilities. When was your yearly ceremony, then?
no subject
The date wouldn't mean anything, but it was mid-summer on our hemisphere of Dantooine.
no subject
This might not be too hard to work out - Were you affected at all by the attack last week?

[His response comes quickly.]
Wow, you guys are pretty popular. There must be something about the lion that makes it a good month to be born in.
Cancers were special targets for the scorpions, and as far as I know, nothing happened to the Gemini.
no subject
...suddenly I'm glad this happened this month, and not in summer.

[Atsuro shrugs slightly.]
Yeah, we might even have saved the city from whatever was threatening it by then. But in the meantime... there's Sagittarius and Capricorn coming up soon.

Then we'll just leave all the affected signs in the city and take a week long vacation whenever it comes up.
All in favor, say aye!

...They never really seem to take an interest in what goes on with us. I still feel a little like we're intruding.

Anyway... I'll do what I can to think of a real plan soon.
