2nd Flight ✈ written

[A list in scratchy but readable print appears over the journals.]

1. The guide says that if we return to our worlds, we will return to the moment in time that we were taken from. Is there anyone here who can confirm this for me from their own experience?

2. I'm interested in learning how to effectively filter posts. Advice would be appreciated.

3. I'd also like to know more about missions if you've been on them. I've signed up to be a volunteer but haven't been called yet; it would help if I knew what to expect.

4. What information exists about the ruins in the mountains or the tunnels beneath the village?

5. There really aren't any stars in the sky?

[Birdy will respond verbally; it's just that writing out a list of talking points seemed like the best way of organizing things, considering all the questions he has.]

Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

The filtering thing is kind of weird, but I can try and explain it. I also know a decent bit about missions; I've been on a couple. Everything else, I can't really say much on.

[Birdy will switch to audio here; Clove is of course free to keep things in text.]

Explain how filtering works, then.

[Oops, he doesn't mean to sound rude, and hopefully his tone of voice will make that clear. He's just kind of blunt.]

[Clove, however, is fine switching, too.]

It's like a puzzle. You fix up a puzzle in the journal -- a password, something like that -- to protect. If people can get past it? They can read or hear it.

That is pretty weird. Doesn't seem all that secure, either.

[Also seems like a lot of work. Why not just have a simple menu setting?]

It works well enough. Not the best system, no, but it suits us okay.

[Birdy makes a note to see if the library has any books on puzzles and riddles. He doesn't much care for such pursuits, but it seems like it would be useful to know, and it's not like he has anything better to do here.]

What about the missions you've been on, then? Tell me about those. How many have you been on so far?

[The handwriting of the response is tidy and even, though it has a feminine touch to it.]

I've had some experience with most of those things. I'd like to talk with you, although I think it might be easier to meet somewhere.

Where would you prefer to meet, then?

I can meet wherever would be the easiest for you.

[Well, he was trying to be courteous since she's the one offering to help him, but if she insists...]

The bar, then.

[The battle of the courtesies.]

I can be there in half an hour. Is that alright?

They are tiny men holding lanterns.

[Birdy almost ignores Loki's absurd comment, but...Luceti is a strange world, and certainly he's seen his own share of strange things while with the Jetters.]

You got proof of that?

Edited (wrong mode) 2014-01-25 03:26 (UTC)

Do you have proof they aren't truly stars?

Not for here. That's why I was asking. They exist where I'm from.

Then it seems my hypothesis is as sound as yours.

[A talking bird. Huh.]

I've only been on one but I'm willing to talk about it.

[Yes. A talking bird. His voice may not sound like it should come from a bird, either.]

What kind of mission was it?

[...A talking bird with a deep voice. ...Huh.]

Defending a depot out in the desert.

[Interesting. In exploring the limits of the barrier, he'd flown up as high as he could to get a better idea of the lay of the land, but he doesn't recall seeing a desert in his reconnaissance.]

Defending it from the Third Party, I'm assuming?
