hello, fellow unwilling etrayans. this is sophie cuckoo.

two things to address today. the first one is regarding NYX. if you don't know what the fuck im talking about, in charronway there's a massive building with grafitti all over and the entrance says 'all welcome'. it's our community center here in etraya, we offer homemade meals for lunch and dinner, community support and classes given by our fellow kidnapped, and a space for gatherings if you want to use it as such.

i am once more opening roles for cooks, and if you want to teach something to the community or if there's something you'd like to learn, let me know and i'll fix it in the schedule. in the mornings, you'll talk to chrissy and for our collective psychological well-being, never ever address me before 12pm, but i'm available there after that time and chrissy will tell me if you need anything prior to my soul returning to my body. i also know some of you got powers on earth, so if you need some testing grounds or help, that can be arranged too, although i want to make it clear i am a not a good teacher. you choose this at your own risk.

now that that's out of the way. part two, people. tell me what you are up to, give me your problems to solve, you guys know the drill. last time you all had such interesting insights and some of you are in dire need of therapy, but well. let's go.

i got some time to kill.

Did you start NYX?

[sophielicious]

(Oh, she doesn't know this one.)

over here? yeah.

it's a transfer from home, though. it's a team effort, i'm a part of it. why?

[maellum]

It sounds like a lot of effort, even in a team. In a good way.

[sophielicious]

huh. i guess no one really asked me where it came from

but it was important for the current state of affairs so. yeah. lotta effort. it's fine though. worth it.

and also, helloOo, your name?

[maellum]

It sounds interesting.

Oh, sorry. My name is Maelle. Hi.

[sophielicious]

how so?

oh. pretty name. nice to meet you, maelle who just remembered manners. i'm sophie, like i said.

[maellum]

The whole sense of community thing. People who encourage that and actually believe in it are rare.

Hey, I'm not used to this thing yet. I don't know the etiquette.

[sophielicious]

the idea was to bridge some gaps we have. kinda make it a safe space for all who wanted it? there's a lot of species fighting where i'm from, so to explore alliances and be around likeminded people and all.

well. you're welcome.

did you want to help out, offer a class, or can i help you with anything?

[maellum]

That's nice. I like the idea.

I'm really only good at running errands. I can do that if you need it, but I don't know the layout of this place yet.

[sophielicious]

doubtful. tell me 5 things you like to do.

(Some people don't even realize their own potentials. She's been in enough brains. Anyone can run errands. What can she do?)

either you go walking around more often or i can drop in directions in your mind just let me know

[maellum]

[Wow okay she's going try to not crash out thinking of things. This reply takes a hot minute to come through.]

1. Dueling
2. Collecting clothes
3. Writing
4. Spending time with my family
5. Staying alive? I don’t know.

I don't really need more things dropped into my head so I think I'll walk around more.

[sophielicious]

go back to 1. why is it 1, what kind of duelling, and how good are you.

(See. Found a useful thing. 😇)

[maellum]

It's 1 because it's what I'm best at. I use a rapier. And I'm VERY good at it.

[sophielicious]

then why the fuck did you say you're just good at running errands.

okay. so. well. that's an important skill. every now and then we go into these violent missions and stuff, so. i think if you'd like to teach, that'd be valuable. even i'd like to learn.

[maellum]

Because

[... okay, this Sophie maybe has a good point. Anyway,]

I don't know how good of a teacher I am. Guess I can try. It takes a certain amount of finesse and grace to use a rapier.

[sophielicious]

we do what we can. you won't find out how good you are till you try, right?

besides i suck as a teacher and i have dabbled and i'm getting better. it's a skill.

[maellum]

If I suck I'll just never show my face there again.

[sophielicious]

come to see me at nyx today. let's talk about it in person.

[maellum]

After 12?

[sophielicious]

you don't wanna deal with me before that.

[maellum]

How about tomorrow?

[sophielicious]

wonderful. there are weapons at the bishop publishing, you can check them and bring what you find interesting, i'll store it.

[maellum]

Do you have a weapon of choice?

[sophielicious]

i don't fight physically.

[maellum]

No?
