First off, I ain't seen nothing like this on the Institute's network before. Color me impressed. So this is a community, non? Boring stuff aside, I'm guessin' I should get to introducing myself.

Names Gambit. It ain't my real name, so don't be going on about what an unfortunate kind of child I am. It's what you call an alias, homme. Good for a lot

New... Orleans? We have not heard of such a place.

[conceivably]

You're missing out then, fille. Never met someone who ain't heard of the Big Easy. Where are you from?

[askaboutus]

The proud country of Fahren!

[conceivably]

Reckon it's my turn to say I ain't never heard of that country.

[voice]

[sapping]

What'd you need an alias for in th'first place?

[voice]

[conceivably]

Lots o' t'ings y'could use one fo', chere.

[And there's silence for a few beats. Hell if he doesn't recognize her voice.]

Din't t'ink y'had one o' these, mon ami.

[voice]

[sapping]

...What d'you mean you didn't think I had one? I don't think I know you...

[voice]

[conceivably]

...T'is ain't ver' funny, Rogue. Y'tryin' t'give me a heart attack?

[borderhax]

I wouldn't know. But I like to think Japan is much nicer.

I am Yukari Yakumo. A pleasure.

[conceivably]

Ain't ever been to Japan. Reckon it's nice there if you talk so highly about it.

Pleasure is all mine, mon ami.

[borderhax]

Well, its nice if you know where to look.

[conceivably]

You got any suggestions for me? Always good to be prepared.

[shockstatic]

What's a guy like you doing with an alias anyway?

[conceivably]

You'd be surprised, fille. There are lots of thing a guy like me can do with an alias.

[shockstatic]

Oh trust me, I know all about that.

Are you running from someone?

[conceivably]

Oh, do you now?

You could say that. Are you?

[callmebertie]

Oh, I say! A lot of people have jumped into this odd pond today, what?

Well, I would like to extend my hand in greeting, Gambit! Metaphorically, of course, we can't exactly shake through this whatsit. I'm Bertie Wooster.

I'll give fair warning, my good chap. This is a strange place. I myself have been handed heaps of silver linings due to it, but others seem to get nothing but clouds. I do hope you can manage to keep dry.

Welcome!

[conceivably]

Seems that way, homme. Pleasure to meet you, Bertie.

A warning, non? I'll keep that in mind. Supposing it'll come in handy. Here's to hoping my luck is as good as yours.

[callmebertie]

Indeed! Here's to it!

New Orleans, eh? Jeeves has been nudging at me to go there. He says the shrimping is particularly good.

Are you French? You won't hold my heralding from Old Blighty against me, I hope.

[conceivably]

Particularly good don't cover it. Reckon you'll be pleasantly surprised if you give it a go.

Cajun, to be specific. Born and raised in New Orleans. I ain't got anything against the English.
