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.

So... Volunteering, basically?

It's through turning things like sound into data. Processors in the tech form up the 1s and 0s of the digital code and send it through speakers, that read it out back into sound. This makes it all very portable and inexpensive too.

[He was hoping she wouldn't, so that's certainly relieving... though he's still surprised upon seeing the person at the counter not caring.]

Oh... Wow. That person didn't care about you taking it at all. So everything really is free?

I'm not sure if I completely follow that, but it is pretty interesting. I'd love to see those devices for myself. They sound nice and convenient.

Well, this journal we're talking through? I'm pretty sure it's like what I'm talking about. It's data being rapidly taken in and put back out so we can hear each other. Phones work like this - they're just smaller and not book shaped.

...Yeah, that's a good way to put it. They're volunteering.

Aaaaand you lost me... What's a phone? I'm assuming they're a means of communication like the journals.

Yup! In my world, they can let you talk to people over very long distances, even out into space when we're on our ships, though that's usually reserved for official communication. Easier and faster than a letter.

Well in that case, that's very generous for them to do that. Especially if they're not getting any compensation for it.

[...Though he really feels like they should get something at least. Ah well.]

Space...? Your world really has some advanced technology. That's crazy. I don't suppose you can do the same thing with these journals, can you?

The talking? Yeah, we are. Sending that signal into space? Nope. I tried. If I could I would have called for the Enterprise and gotten us all out of here!

You sure have a knack for mentioning things I don't know about... Mind telling me what this "Enterprise" is?

Oh, that's the name of my space ship - the U.S.S. Enterprise.

You own an entire ship?

I don't own her, but I am her Captain, so she's mine in my head. I work for a group called Star Fleet back home.

That's what I've been saying! If everything wasn't free, at least one person would have tried to stop me, don't you think?

[Watch out Jude, she's going to try to put the earmuffs on you. Also they are neon pink.]

That's really cool, actually. It sounds like something you'd read from some kind of fantasy story.

Yeah, definitely. But no one did so-- H-huh?

[Why are you suddenly putting earmuffs on him...! He reaches up to feel the fluffs of pink on his ears.]

These are really warm, but... I don't think pink is really my color.

It was nothing but dreams a few centuries ago for my planet. It was the stuff of books and TV shows and movies. And then we made it real and it's... amazing.

I can imagine. I wish I could see it for myself.

[To get reactions like that out of him, of course ☆]

Aw, so you don't like them? How disappointing... [Oh boy.]

I guess I should go put them back, then.

[This girl is trouble...!]

I like them, just not the color. [He pulls the earmuffs off, handing them back to her.] If you pick out a different color I could just go with that, probably.

[She accepted the earmuffs with a carefree look before putting them on herself. Her ears were cold, okay.]

Oh? Am I going to have to pick out the rest of your clothes too?

[Jane, stahp.]

So were you able to find everything you need? [Because he'd like his coat back.]

Edited 2013-12-25 03:13 (UTC)

N-no, that's not necessary. I can pick out my own clothes. Though if you have a suggestion with any, I wouldn't mind hearing it.
