It seems there's been a lot going on. I really shouldn't have been burying myself in reading. Even though I'm in the City, I still feel a need to study. Studying never hurt anybody.

I hope everyone is faring well, despite the recent events...So many people dying...Mother, I hope you're well. If anyone needs help with anything, feel free to ask? I'

You like reading? I heard there is a library here, but I haven't visited it yet.

[hescafe]

Yes, I do. Back home I didn't really get a chance to read the books I wanted since there was always something to do. I've visited the library here several times, it's pretty big!

Do you like to read too?

[floweralchemist]

I know how that is... I always seemed to be busy doing one thing or another. I'll have to be sure to go there sometime.

I do! But I like experimenting and seeing things for myself a lot more than just reading about them.

[hescafe]

Please do, it'll definitely be worth the visit.

Ah, experimenting? I think I like that as well, and in a way, I got my fair share of that back home.

[floweralchemist]

Really? Are you an alchemist or a scientist, then?

[hescafe]

Oh no, I'm not. I'm just a student and a member of my school's Host Club.

Are you an alchemist or scientist?

[floweralchemist]

...What's a Host Club?

I'm an alchemist. I come from a family of alchemists, actually.

[hescafe]

Well...it's a club where the activities revolve around giving the people of our school something to do in their free time? We plan events with different themes that are fun and enjoyable to a certain extent.

Wow, that's amazing. Do you enjoy being an alchemist?

[floweralchemist]

Oh, I see. So you basically just do fun things with your friends?

I do! It's a lot of work, but it's really interesting, too. And I get to make things that help people.

[hescafe]

...You could put it that way. More like torture, sometimes.

What type of things have you made?

[floweralchemist]

Oh, lots of things! I make weapons and armor for my friends, of course, but I've also made different kinds of candy, a mixture that could regrow giant crystals, a potion to restore a girl's memory... pretty much whatever people ask me to make. As a Raider, it's my job to fulfill the requests of the townspeople.

[hescafe]

That's amazing, it sounds like you can do a lot.

Oh, and may I have the pleasure of knowing your name? I don't think I've met you before.

I'm Fujioka Haruhi.

[floweralchemist]

My name's Iris. Iris Fortner.

Er... Is Fujioka your family name or your first name?

[ooc: she's still confused by people's naming patterns here.~ Also by the way... is Haruhi pretending to be a boy here?]

[hescafe]

It's nice to meet you, Iris-san.

Ah, Fujioka is my family name.

[ooc; Not really? She's not trying to be either so it's up to you to decide? Though I think the twins have been dressing her up lately?]

[floweralchemist]

Haruhi, then. It's a pretty name! Actually, I met someone else here named Haruhi... You're a lot more normal than she was.

[ooc: avoiding the question then ;) also strike barely legible]
