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!

What are you, then?

[sithiche]

Fey. It's... Well, I'm not sure I can explain the difference, since the elves I've met here don't all seem to be the same as each other either...

[fintastic]

Well, I would still like to hear about your parents, even if you aren't a human!

[sithiche]

I was raised by humans, then met my real dad later. What exactly do you want to know?

[fintastic]

I don't know. What kind of people were they? What kind of things did you do together? How do you feel about them?

[sithiche]

They were all I could have asked for in parents, really. They made sure that I was always provided for and had an upstanding education.

[fintastic]

How did you feel about them though? When you were still with them.

[sithiche]

Oh. Well, I loved them, I guess.

[fintastic]

That's it?

[ She seems... disappointed. ]

[sithiche]

[ He looks thoughtful for a long moment. ]

They weren't around as much as they could have been. I didn't think of it that way at the time.

[fintastic]

Oh. I'm sorry to hear that.

[sithiche]

What makes you so curious about this, anyway?

[fintastic]

Just general curiosity! I have spent a lot of time around humans by now and I just want to know more.

[sithiche]

Do they not have humans where you come from?
