"Moooom, can I have train fare again?"
"Again? This is the last time, be back by seven."
"The train lines closed down for a bit thanks to the monster, remember?"
"Ah, right...Honestly, I went for the shelter and didn't check..."

"We come to you live from the scene. So? What have you learned from this?"
"A-ahem. Sorry, it's a bit dusty. As far as we can tell, it hasn't moved an inch, going from the dust on the ground."
"I see. And what about this kaiju? Black King hasn't been identified in a while, so what theories do you have for its appearance?"
"It's hard to say...we don't have any conclusive answers, but we're already on the search for what it intends to guard."
"Thank you for your time. May we-"
"I must ask you do not approach it. Even if it's immobile, we can't tell if its living or not."
"...Excuse me?"
"Point your camera up there. It should be-"
"Uwah, steam from its mouth!"
"So far, its only been hot air, but we're exercising all utmost caution."

@groundidolvent - What a weird show I went to yesterday. I think she was too edgy with the poster and the mask, but the final bit takes the cake. Shock value is overrated. #underIdol #newIdol #wtf #BlackKingNews #NouvelleTokyo #kaiju

"Oh, new guy! Just in time, betting pool finally paid out!"

[A video on a microblogging site of some party watching reruns of a cult classic drama. Nothing of note as the phone camera automatically focuses outside for a moment, showing nothing in the city skyline. One turn away to record a particular reaction before turning back after a rumble that's attributed to an earthquake, before turning back. The phone camera focuses on Black King in the distance.]

"Uuuuh, so what does this mean for the district?"
"Nothing. The factories there been abandoned since Anaheim got smacked with their smear campaign. Emergency liquidation, no buyers, so it's rotting."
"Wasn't there going to be another company soon?"
"After Junius Seven? Hah, no way in hell that's moving. Even if some people don't care, it's too risky when people move in."
"Ma'am?"
"It's a kaiju that people can gawk at. Give it a month or two."
