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.

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.

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.

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.

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. ]}

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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?
