10th Short - [Action]

[kingofwaste]

[Luceti was almost destroyed. Almost. It turned out to be just another prank by the Malnosso, or whatever, but for a while Oswald was convinced that his new home would be crushed by a creepy moon. Then, just like a cartoon short, it all ended and everything was reset to normal. But unlike a cartoon short, this story didn't have a happy ending. None

You... I'm going to need to count on your apparent leadership abilities, actually.

[kingofwaste]

Ohoh, is that so? And what sort of thing will I be leading?

[godbent]

[She sounds it out in her head] Penpals. Do you know what those are?]

[kingofwaste]

Ya mean when two friends who live far away from each other keep sendin' each other letters? [What does that have to do with leadership?]

[godbent]

Yeah, that. But now let's backtrack - pictures penpals in Luceti.

[kingofwaste]

Here? But who would we write to?

[godbent]

Other people here - to preserve the vibe I'm not sure if it needs to be anonymous or not... [she pulls her legs in closer to herself] I thought it sounded stupid myself but the more I think about it, if you can weed out psychos from using the system, it almost sounds romantic, right? and most people are all over that sort of gooey thing.

[Not that she's clarified any details]

[kingofwaste]

So... Everyone writes to everyone? Ain't that what the journals are for?

[godbent]

Which is why they would be the means. It doesn't mean everyone uses it like that normally or anything though.

[kingofwaste]

So... What's this gotta do with me, exactly?

[godbent]

I want you to play matchmaker, in layman's terms.

[kingofwaste]

So... Lemme see if I've got this straight. I match people up and then they write letters to each other through the journals, like penpals?

[godbent]

Yeah, basically. It's a way to get recluses to talk to people.

[kingofwaste]

But what if they refuse to write letters to their pals?

[godbent]

That's where you come in, Moderator Lucky Rabbit.

[kingofwaste]

Ooohhh, I'll get to hassle 'm until they write? That sounds like a pretty sweet gig!
