[ It's so strange to be able to type again. After literally years of having to handwrite written messages, it's odd to use a phone again. It's perhaps that more than anything which sees him putting up this post onto the social media network. It's form a "newbie" and it might be out of place with the growing dark climate with the flickering lights and rotting foot, but it's something he throws out all the same.

And it's...! ]

Soooo!! Does anyone know any god date spots in the castle? Anyone already sailing the seas of romance before now, or is the stark soldiery we've been pushed towards put a quash on romance in the name of stoic friendship? Let's hear those stories, people! Crushes, illicit affairs, pining, maybe even marriage?! You can trust your tales to the Love Hunter Masa.

O o o r r r . . .

How about a game? ♥ We could do truth or dare if you like but while we're all a little hungry, how about word association! I'll even start us off:

Third Party.

oh.

[Aaaaaand now he feels dumb again.]

i guess tone is kind of hard to communicate over text.

[generalflirt]

Nyehohohoho! ♥ It's true, it's true! You don't even know if I laugh that weirdly!

text

[postictal]

i'd guess not. that looked like a pain to type out.

text

[generalflirt]

(O _ O ') !!

I've been found out!!

text

[postictal]

[What is that...is that a face? A...sweating face. Yeah. Okay.]

well, don't worry. your secret's safe with me. i don't even really know a lot of people here anyway.

text

[generalflirt]

So you're also one of those people who was new with me, Tim-san? So we're already New Buddies.

text

[postictal]

oh boy. what does that mean, is this the part where we braid hair and make friendship bracelets?

text

[generalflirt]

Mostly that we get conscripted by gods and talk to skeletons at the same time.

That said, I'll take the bracelets.

text

[postictal]

place kinda blows, i'll give it that. i mean, it's not the worst, but it's not the best either.

the bracelets were just me talking up skills i don't have. sorry.

text

[generalflirt]

You've been to similar places? Or just worse ones?

text

[postictal]

just worse ones. in my defense, i grew up in alabama.

text

[generalflirt]

Eto...

Is that one Europe or the US?

text

[postictal]

u.s.

don't ever go there it's horrific.

text

[generalflirt]

Must be if you're ranking it lower than a castle that risks your life and your shadow!

text

[postictal]

well at least shadows are presumably up front about wanting to kill you.

what's the deal with them anyway? i haven't seen any, but all people will tell me is that we're supposed to fight them.

text

[generalflirt]

[ Well that's dark... but it's true. He thinks of some of his own experiences, and conflates say the Cultists with the likes of Izaya. it makes sense. That said, he'd still put the Third Party as worse, but that was from experience with it. ]

I don't really know either. I've been told that they're solid, living darkness which serves the Queen of this castle, which Ozuma-san, who summoned us, is at odds with. And we're here to work against the interests of the Queen and her shadows.

text

[postictal]

yeah, same here. still don't really know what to do when i come up against one unless i happen to be carrying a flashlight or something.

text

[generalflirt]

In my case I intend to try hitting it. But then, most of the enemies I've fought before now had bodies.

text

[postictal]

do they even really have bodies though? what's the deal?

someone needs to make a crash course or faq or something.

text

[generalflirt]

Or a Guide.

text

[postictal]

yeah, or that. skeleton did his best but i've still got questions.

text

[generalflirt]

Well, Tim-san, do you have the skills to write your experiences? You could become our Lois Lane and give us the scoop!

text

[postictal]

i was thinking someone who'd been here a little longer but you know what, if no one else is going to i might as well.

text

[generalflirt]

Ideally, it would be someone who had been here longer, but these things take a village. People to collect it, report it, interview for it, and search for the truth. I'll even help as much as I can, but if you write what you learn, compare to more old hats, and build from there, we can make a Guide.

Maybe even write it for how we'd want to have been informed.

text

[postictal]

i mean i don't think people would lie to us about this out of spite. aren't we all on the same side? nominally anyway.

but i guess i'll be keeping an eye out. i'm not really a journalist type but whatever.
