Islander meeting!

Who: Everyone!
What: An information gathering meeting, mingle log style!
When: 13th as advertised Here!
Where: Big tent, islet 4 (sorry Ardyn!)
Warnings: Keep an eye on subject lines for warnings!

[The tent is a good place to have this. It's sheltered at least. Shion has collected strawberries and also water. He hopes that people will turn up, there's a lot to discuss. About this place, how they are here and how to leave. But also surviving here. Helping each other make the most of being here.

They had done such things in the Tower and it was a good way to get things organised. He knows he has questions and he thinks other people probably do as well. If it's anything like the Tower then people all have different bits of information that will fit together eventually.

He greats people as they enter and will encourage anyone who looks less than certain to enter and offer them strawberries.]


((OOC: So I'll put up a subthread for mingling before the meeting, then discussion points can be posted as a reply to this main thread. I'll do a few for things Shion will bring up but feel free to post your own points as well! Tag around, do breakout threads, discuss all the things. Don't worry if things go off topic. Have fun!)

elsewhere
new arrival


[Relatively, anyway, compared to everyone else. At the beginning of the month, naturally, which is around when everyone else "new" shows up, at least until the next wave.]

[Muffet smiles cheerfully, intrigued by the woman's description.]

She sounds lovely, I'd enjoy meeting her.
hyperlit: (i dont know how to fucking please you)

[The Drifter points to their own temple by way of explanation.]

speaks only in mind
prettypurpleparlor: Thinking only (And I've a many curious things)

[Muffet tilts her head, fascinated by this idea.]

You mean she can communicate directly into your thoughts, somehow?

images in ones mind

[So that would be a yes. Schooling their thoughts into something they can issue forth and be interpreted by another is as much an acquired skill as anything, they’ve learned.]

My, how interesting. I don't think I've ever met someone with that ability.

nor i

[But it does present an interesting problem in terms of how best to interact with her. They're not very well-versed in communicating via impression, and her frustration is often palpable.]

will learn another way
prettypurpleparlor: Wily, flattering words (In a little corner sly)

[personal profile] prettypurpleparlor 2018-05-16 02:36 am (UTC)(link)
Then for the sake of your learning and my curiosity, I'll keep an eye out for anyone who knows about this sort of thing, shall I? Hopefully, it will help us both.

[That seems fair to them. The Drifter nods. Perhaps it is difficult to tell, but they are grateful for the assist.]

ok
