[Thanatos comes to the screen formally, square in the middle and dressing the public like a news caster. His eyes are set on the camera point, and he is focused.]Good evening residents of Demeleier

Thanatos...

[So this isn't awkward at all.]

Perhaps it would be... less off-putting if you were to treat the newcomers like the were less uncounted parts of a list and more... people you are concerned for.

[1/2]

[mem_more_rakke]

[Not awkward in the slightest] Hmn...

[2/2]

[mem_more_rakke]

Of course you are right. My approach is far too formal, as always. [was he going to confirm that he cares about anyone? No? Oh well...]

[myhrta]

Perhaps you would be interested in being the formal side of the welcoming committee?

[mem_more_rakke]

I have already put forward the idea, my lady. I would be free to do so, providing the other residents agree this would benefit newcomers. I am still unsure as to the effect my presence has on people. With so many different types of being here, it is difficult to gauge. [He clears his throat. Slightly awkwardly]

[myhrta]

Other people would be able to explain the necessity of the lists, I imagine. People arrive here confused and unsure of their allies. Someone demanding their information will only put hackles further up.

[This is Myhrta. Blithely trying to ignore any personal feeling she may have when speaking to Thanatos.]

[mem_more_rakke]

As you can tell, I am not a people person. [He resolves to leave it at that. She knows it all too well after all, and this is him pretending that she doesn't]

Is everything all right, Myhrta?

[myhrta]

It's going along as comfortably as it can. [Said very briskly.]

So, can I count you on as the brains behind the matter?

[mem_more_rakke]

I will try my utmost, at your request, my lady. [He bows to her.] However, I will require a small team, as not every newcomer catches my attention.

[myhrta]

Of course. I'm trying to get people together, Thanatos. Maybe you could arrange a try out for us? In the town hall, or maybe the Inn.

[mem_more_rakke]

I hate to rain on Prince Schneizel's parade. It was his idea foremost. Do you think it would be all right to simply arrange something? [Here a tad of uncertainty in his tone. Just a smidgen but it's there. He doesn't usually talk to people when he's feeling uncertain but...]

[myhrta]

[Myhrta raises an eyebrow.]

Oh? And Thereth and I, who initially suggested it?

[mem_more_rakke]

The two of you? Forgive me I didn't know. [He looks slightly forlorn] Miscommunication really is the root of all discomfort. [And with that in mind...]

The newcomers have an innate dislike of you. I feel that the war in Azeroth is a thing that must not bleed into those who are on the welcoming committee.

[myhrta]

Oh, the Trolls?

[Myhrta can't keep the disdain from her voice.]

Don't worry. I have no intention of approaching those barbaric wretches.

[mem_more_rakke]

I trust your sense of self control. [He says, despite what happened between them]

Though I am beginning to fear that measures may need to be put in place for the time when inevitably residents here commit crimes toward one another.

[myhrta]

Hmph. They're trolls. Not... without a sense of honour, but a very base one.

If they do not come near me, or do any harm otherwise, I will not extend a violent hand to them.
