Warmest greetings to the freed people of Edensphere

It is good to meet you by name! Huo is actually part of your real name?

And it is also good to know that you will be easy to find when I visit.

[getsome_sleep]

No; I once had a different name, and a different style. But they belonged to a different man.

I will be here, and if you do not visit then I shall be very cross.

[spandexisyouth]

Oh, I see. You have become different to the point that you are changing your name?

It will be hard to get rid of me!

[getsome_sleep]

Indeed. It is not so uncommon a thing in my place of origin. There is much to a name.

Somehow I do not doubt our ability to tolerate your presence.

[lingeringlegacy]

I have to confess I am a bit confused on how to address you now, cherished brother.

/rudely threadjacks?

[crimson_seeker]

One could say you just neatly sidestepped that problem, beloved sister.

if that is rude I'm the queen of England

[lingeringlegacy]

My wise other brother would be correct, but I'm afraid it might get unwieldy in day-to-day usage.

Chinese is haaaaaard...

[getsome_sleep]

Most properly, the title is èr gē, which is 'second brother'; but I hope that you do not expect me to stand overmuch on propriety.

[man_genius]

How many of you are staying behind?

Rumor has it people can come and go as they like so in case you ever have need of modern medicine, you'll have options.

[getsome_sleep]

My brother and I have our home here. I know of a few others. This is a world like any other, now.

So I hear. It should be my unique honor to be able to study this lore of your world, if that is possible.

i headcanon Topher has a personal assistant b/c of his agoraphobia

[man_genius]

So there will be people to visit. Good to know. :)

Ah now that I remember everything, you probably would find our 'lore' to be horribly disappointing. I mean sure we have ipods and personal computers and penicillin and all but we also have reality tv, Paris Hilton, Crocs and Snuggies.

...Even if Snuggies look incredibly comfy. My PA wouldn't let me buy one, apparently because I don't pay him enough.

[getsome_sleep]

You are welcome always. Though you must be so kind as to keep your Tribble away from my papers.

I may have been better equipped to judge the worth of your lore if i understood a word of what you wrote. And still, no knowledge is useless. There is no knowledge that I do not desire.

[azhdarchidae]

If you're not going to give a pronunciation guide, I'm going to start referring to you as 'Zhuggers'.

... FFFFFFF XD

[getsome_sleep]

That will not be very polite at all.

Pronunciation is hard to convey in writing. Where do you fly nowadays?

[azhdarchidae]

I regret to inform you that I have never been terribly polite.

Away.

I found a world that was like all shrimp. Got tired of it, though.

[getsome_sleep]

It is never too late to learn new things.

There is a certain poetry in that a place that has held us prisoners for so long now offers us freedom like no other.

[coughcoughshank]

I wonder if you're related to Zhuge Liang - you have the same family name. And he was smart, like you.

[getsome_sleep]

[A sudden splotch of ink - looks like Huo has dropped his pen.]

Was he. indeed?

[coughcoughshank]

He was a really famous strategist - I don't know much more though. Hijikata-san knows more about these things than me.

[getsome_sleep]

May I ask how you come by the name? One may be famous for many things.
