007 ♓ video

Can I ask someone some questions about human parents? Like if you have them, or if you are one!

[ With the way Feferi has her face all up in the camera, you would think she had never used technology before. But no, she's just very exuberant, more so than usual. ]

Oh yeah, and that's not the only thing I wanted to say! So who remembers that we were working on a guide for new people? Well, it's finally ready!

[ Link Attached: A Newbie's Guide to Exsilium ]


But before I print it out, I want everyone to see it. What do you all think? And some people can be relieved that there are only plain, boring fonts, thanks to the all the help I got! If anyone else has anything to add, tell me! Also, it would be great if some people would volunteer as contacts for the new people. You know, like an on-call question answerer!





[ OOC; some notes!
  • There will be a printed version of the guide that looks pretty much the same only in folded booklet form, minus the links at the bottom for obvious reasons. In their place there will be a note about those resources being available on the digital version.

  • Some of the links are fake because the information doesn't exist in linkable form! Mouse over fake links to see a description of where they lead.

  • If you have corrections to make but do not play a character who would bring it up, let me know and we'll figure it out!

  • This goes for characters who volunteered questions/answers too, who want to be listed as a writer. I didn't want to assume who would and wouldn't want to be listed.

  • If I missed adding a link, let me know and I will add it!

[ SIGH. he puts the communicator away and comes over...]

Did you want to know anything in particular...?
stonefaith: (confused | u put the what in the where)

[personal profile] stonefaith 2012-10-14 09:52 pm (UTC)(link)
[ He doesn't take it, instead continuing to stand awkwardly over her with his arms crossed. Sorry, girl :C ]

To... be a parent? [ STARING SO SUSPICIOUSLY. Feferi, you're not old enough for that!! ]
stonefaith: (neutral | ...)

[personal profile] stonefaith 2012-10-15 02:10 pm (UTC)(link)
How they feel...?

[ the corner of his mouth twitches. yeah well someone's been having a lot of parent feelings lately, and--

and. well. bariyan shrugs, and shuts himself down.
]

I don't know. Love them, I suppose. [ he turns away, moving towards the kitchen. ]
stonefaith: (downcast | i'm sorry)

[personal profile] stonefaith 2012-11-02 11:54 pm (UTC)(link)
[ a shrug. LIKE HE DOESN'T CARE.

he opens the refrigerator; there's only two bottles sitting in the fridge, and one of them's open. he takes it out. it's empty. why did he put an empty bottle back in the fridge? dammit. he reaches for the other one instead.
]

I'm not the person to ask about such things.
stonefaith: (confused | ummmm)

[personal profile] stonefaith 2012-11-03 03:26 pm (UTC)(link)
[ He starts to turn but stops when he sees that Feferi has laid hands on him, staring. ] Nothing. [ Genuinely confused. Nothing more than usual, at least. He gently shrugs Feferi off, straightening to close the refrigerator door and moving further away into the kitchen in search of a bottle opener. ]

What of your parents back home...?
stonefaith: (uncomfortable | this is not okay)

[personal profile] stonefaith 2012-11-04 05:09 am (UTC)(link)
[ bariyan is so displeased by this revelation that he stops walking, and actually lets the bottle drop from his hand into hers. ]

What is your lusus? [ given the context, he thinks he knows. but maybe it's not what he thinks. because, oh. ]
stonefaith: (confused | u put the what in the where)

[personal profile] stonefaith 2012-11-07 07:35 pm (UTC)(link)
[ HEY, WHERE DID THAT BOTTLE GO, BARIYAN NEEDED THAT ]

Well, I was going to assume she was a troll....
stonefaith: (skeptical | c. i guess c.)

[personal profile] stonefaith 2012-11-10 12:17 am (UTC)(link)
[ stare. THAT DOESN'T SOUND LIKE IT PASSES QUALIFICATIONS FOR PARENTING .... ]

And she's... dead? How?
stonefaith: (guilty | i've made a huge mistake)

[personal profile] stonefaith 2012-11-12 04:26 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh.

[ almost unthinkingly, bariyan reaches up and retrieves the bag of marshmallows for her. he stares at them for a moment in confusion, because he doesn't know what they are, then hands them over to their rightful owner. ]

I'm sorry. Was she... all you had, for a parent? [ or was he supposed to say 'lusus'? oh man he doesn't know ]
stonefaith: (concerned | no that's not)

[personal profile] stonefaith 2012-11-13 05:41 pm (UTC)(link)
Losing her must have been hard, then.

[ Bariyan just stares at the bag. He's not really sure what she wants... so he takes the bag and moves to put it back into the cabinet. ]
stonefaith: (confused | scritch scratch)

[personal profile] stonefaith 2012-11-14 08:17 pm (UTC)(link)
No, I'm good. [ He starts closing the cabinet, then hesitates. ] Er... were you done with them?
