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.

Yes, it's me again. It's going pretty good right now, although in the beginning I made a bit of an ass out of myself. I was being too demanding without listening, but I was fortunately bucked into the Lazy River then. I apologized afterwards and we talked through it. ...Then we were assigned as husbands on the last mission.
I think this is an excellent idea. It could be an excellent resource for new arrivals, or perhaps a safe space for people who are in need.
I mean physical strength. As an example, when I was a child I would train by running up a mountain in a full suit of armor carrying several buckets of rocks. Conversely I also was trained to swim in a full suit of armor as well. I am excellent at doing heavy lifting and demolition if needed.

Skills:

2) Fighting with a sword
3) Fighting while dancing with a sword
4) Fighting astride a horse (currently teaching myself how to do so atop a chocobo)
5) Good at following directions
I have taught war orphans basic swordsmanship before, but I cannot say whether I was good at it. My professor also helped in teaching them. Also, my schedule is very open at present; I have no prior commitments.
Oh, I do have some things I would like to request to not do. I really am no good at cooking, so please keep me out of the kitchen unless it is for cleaning duties. I am also not very good at delicate work, my strength is not a boon here and I have broken many a needle trying to learn cloth mending.

listening is a skill. i'm also shit at it. guess it's a muscle?
yeah. that's what i want.
okay, so you'll be besties with maelle. cool. so, you'll help her classes, if she needs you, and vice-versa. you'll teach too, i'll let her know, since she's coming to see me tomorrow. you can come see me today, i'm up. somehow.
that's what chrissy does, too. deals with kitchen stuff. i'd burn cereal. cleaning duties is also nice.
okay. hired.

Are you sure you are not skilled in listening? This is the second network posting I've seen you make where most of what you do is listen.
I am acquainted with Maelle, but I look forward to helping out.
Where are you to be that we may meet up? Is there anything I should bring?
no subject
oh, good point. this is texting, and has nothing to do with me. everyone i called out for idiocy agreed, too, so i guess it wasn't that bad.
cool. great.
you come to nyx, if i'm not in the chair, i'm in the office, or i'm running inventory. no need to bring anything, but look nice, or else i literally can't pay attention.
