001: Group Introductions - TEXT

[tarnishedavenger]

[During a lull in the party, Armstrong taps out a quick message to the network. Not that private one, he doesn't trust it. They can answer whenever they like, so long as he gets an answer. The trick would be wording it.]

So, we're all in this for now. You've had your welcome cake, but you can't meet everyone in a party, no matter how hard you try. But, since we've all been encouraged to sign up with Jorgmund, I figured now would be a good time to get some introductions done. Talk about any specialties we might have.

Share information that we feel comfortable sharing. This isn't to pressure anyone or to force out any dark secrets.

[Not where watchful eyes can see, at least.]

Besides, I prefer doing this to making a cute information sharing game.

So, please, make your own threads within this post to keep everything organized.

[there's ... there's a bit of a delay before he responds.]

You'll have to forgive me, I'm used to that being an exaggeration.

[Not the most outlandish story he's ever heard, but ... yes. That warrants 'complicated' more than he thought it would.]

[princesspower]

Really? Because I've lived it. Definitely doesn't feel like an exaggeration...

[aleifr]

You misunderstand me. I doubted you before, I don't now.

[Things are rarely as complicated as people make them out to be, at least in his eyes. Adora's situation ... that sounds legitimately fraught.]

[princesspower]

Oh! OK! Sorry, I misunderstood.

I don't think I got your name...

[aleifr]

The fault's likely mine. This tongue is new to me, and I don't write often.

And I am Aleifr, son of Bjorn.

[princesspower]

I'm Adora!

Nice to meet you.

[aleifr]

I know. You introduced yourself at the start.

Good to meet you as well.

[princesspower]

Oh, right.

It'd be better if we weren't stuck here, but nothing we can do about that, right?

[aleifr]

So it seems. Hopefully that changes, given time.
