G-geez, it's freezing...

[In the afternoon, those in the plaza may find this poor unfortunate new feather trudging toward it as he makes his way there in only pants. Needless to say, he's freezing, and he just wants some actual clothes and warm food...! And to know what the heck is going on. He had already glanced at his journal a bit before, so he knows where he is at least, but he's still awfully confused. Not like he really had the chance to read the journal's guide in depth yet since he's just trying to find a place to stay indoors for now.

Either way, care to help this kiddo out?]

[Later on, once he's all settled and knows what he needs to know, he creates his first journal entry in order to address a Very Important Question.]

Hello everyone. My name is Jude Mathis. I'm what you all call a "new feather," and I just arrived earlier today. I've already read most of the guide, so don't worry about filling me in on where I am and all. I do, however, have one particular question...

What do you all do with your wings in regards to clothing? It's kind of uncomfortable to keep them underneath it all, but it'd be a shame if I had to cut up my favorite clothes just to fit my wings through a hole... So does anyone have any suggestions? I figure it's either one or the other, but it's worth asking what you all do, at least.

And also, is there anyone here from Rieze Maxia? Milla? Alvin? [On one hand, he hopes he's not the only one, but on the other, he really wouldn't want them to be stuck here like he apparently is...]

Anyway, thanks.

If you drink them too fast your head will hurt...

[...Oh. That...]

Oh, that sounds like a brain freeze. You get those if you eat or drink something icy too quickly.

They're available for use inside the Battle Dome, but... It's definitely strange to not see every store selling them.

Yeah, I can tell.

[Though on that note...]

Actually, what's the currency here? I don't have any Gald on me to pay for this... [Referring to the pile of clothing he now has in his arms.]

Twins - Hikaru and Kaoru Hitachin. Just watch out, they might insist on giving you a make over while they're at it.

A make over...? Why?

I don't pretend to understand fashion, which I gather is their thing, and I guess make over is part of that? Creatives, what can you do?

Right... Well, I hope they don't try that on me. I don't look that bad, do I?

I wouldn't know, I can't see your face. And I'm not a fashionista, so I'm probably the worst person to ask.

Who's name is Kirk, by the way. Should probably get that out there.

True. [Oh well. Guess he'll have to see what happens.]

But it's nice to meet you, Kirk. Thanks for the help. My name's Jude.

I will not sing the Beatles, I will not sing the Beatles....

Anyways, nice to meet you too, Jude. Welcome to our little bird cage.

If you don't believe me then I'll prove it! [Although thankfully this time she wouldn't be putting him in the line of fire to prove her point. ...Which was kind of telling, really.

She entered the store and took a pair of earmuffs in plain sight, and to top it off she even waved to the person behind the counter as she left.]

See?

Bird cage... That sort of title does work for this place, doesn't it? [Because of the wings...]

What's this about beatles though?

Heh, I feel kind of proud of it, really, even if it's an irritating reminder we're trapped.

Oh, the Beatles - they're a classic group where I'm from. They have a song that goes "Hey, Jude" in the chorus.

Actually, there isn't any. Everything is free.

[Welcome to Luceti, Jude...]

And here I thought you were implying that besides most people having wings, some others have the shell of a beetle. Your actual reasoning is way more pleasant, though.

I don't think the Beatles are in my world, but if possible, I'm kind of curious to listen to that song. Here's hoping it's a good one.

Well, it's a classic. If I can find a way to have you listen to it, I will. Shouldn't be to hard. They're not everyone's cup of tea though.

Free? Seriously? What's to stop someone from just taking everything in the store, then?

Well if they're not here, there wouldn't be a way to listen to their music, would there?

[aka this loser doesn't know what records or CDs are...]

Ah, I'm guessing you're from a world that doesn't have a lot of technological advancement?

_{[ It's not said in a bad way, more like - well, they're out there,
just checking he's right. ]}

It's a pretty small village, so they wouldn't be able to get very far. And besides, everything just gets restocked here automatically anyway.

Well... that would depend on how you define technological advancement, wouldn't it? If it helps, the only way we can listen to music in our world is by watching someone perform it.

Ah, then by my world's standards, you're still back in the pre-tech days. We have things in my world that allow you to record, play back, and listen to music, movies, speeches - anything really.

Huh... That must take a lot of trust, either way. [a beat] What about the workers? If everything is free, how do they get paid?

[Or is there literally... no currency...]

I don't think I've ever really even seen any employees here, actually... Aside from a couple people that take it upon themselves to organize everything.

Oh wow... Seriously? That's incredible. How do they work? Since Spirit Artes aren't used here, I'm assuming it's not through that.
