*pen taps, then a decidedly swirly sort of writing starts (it's still pretty messy)*

Can everyone really read this? If y'can, I'm Cecdan! ...Hey, that rhymes!

And where are the bathrooms around here? I still got birthday goop in my hair.

ooc: and here is an Al Bhed translator, before I forget, since Cecdan does speak Al Bhed from time to time.

You're new? Well hey, it's been a while since anyone's been 'born' into this place!

I'm Cara, and the bathrooms are here: [Quick sketch of a map of the wilderness]

That stuff is kind of a pain to get out.

[kleptomonkey]

Hi! And yay bathrooms!

*few minutes later*

Much better. Is this place always full of matresses?

[feathered_earth]

Well you've caught us at kind of a strange time... this place is called the Wilderness. It changes every so often and right now it's beds. Usually we live in the tree above it, but it's full of man-eating ants right now.

[kleptomonkey]

...Man eating ants!? Seriously?

[feathered_earth]

Yeah, unfortunately. But things have been all right for the most part--we were able to get down here before the swarm arrived.

Do you want to meet in person? Talking to people over paper is kind of odd.

[kleptomonkey]

Aw, man. I have rotten luck.

...Uh. I'd say yes if I wasn't scared of moving from this big, comfy, purple bed unless it's to go to the bathroom? It's confusing around here!

quicklog?

[feathered_earth]

Well hey, it's better than having woken up in the tree with the ants, right?

Hm, well I could come find you. It is a little hard to get used to this place.

sure!

[kleptomonkey]

That'd be awesome! I'm the girl with blonde hair that reaches her butt looking lost, okay?

[feathered_earth]

Okay then!

[Wanders around the store with her spear until she spots Cecdan, and waves.]

Hi! You're Cecdan, right?

Re: quicklog --I'm saying everyone's gonna mispronounce her name at first, okay? Cuz I know I did XD

[kleptomonkey]

Huh? *scrunches up her nose* It's 'Ku-eh-ku-deahn', but yep! Cara?

Yeah, Cara would have gone for the fonnetik pronunciation XD

[feathered_earth]

'Ku-eh ku-deahn,' sorry. [Friendly smile.]

That's me! Sorry things are a little, uh, weird right now. This place is usually more than a big forest of beds.

Al Bhed--Phonics? what's that? XD

[kleptomonkey]

What is it usually? *sits down on the bed and pats the seat next to her* A forest of ovens?

Re: Al Bhed--Phonics? what's that? XD

[feathered_earth]

[Sets down the spear and takes a seat, and giggles.] No, it's... well it turns into a lot of things, really. Last month it was a series of caverns full of monsters, and apparently it turned into a full-fledged city once. You never really know.

Re: Al Bhed--Phonics? what's that? XD

[kleptomonkey]

Really? Cool! *plays with the rose Chosen gave her* What's the place-other-than-this like?

quicklog~

[feathered_earth]

[Leans back and looks up at the ceiling]

Well, it's basically a giant tree. There are island floating around the trunk, with different things on them like farms and a marketplace, but all the houses are up in the branches.

...And the animals that live in the tree are pretty huge. Watch out for the one-story hummingbirds.

Re: quicklog~

[kleptomonkey]

Oooh, sounds neat! ...But the birds are a little creepy sounding. *shudders, and laughs* Do people who live here work the farms, or are they, like, automated or something?
