How beauteous mankind is! O brave new world,

[ghoulserrand]

[He normally would try to lay low in a given world. Faust, too, has suggested he's should. Brining attention onto himself is a bad, bad, very bad idea.

But he can't help it. There's working internet. And he has the power of typing and bad ideas on his side.]

Hey new world! I'm Teo! Just got here. I'm from Earth, but from my last world, I learned that's pretty common, and every Earth seems to be different from the others. Who's from somewhere new and who here's from Earth? And for those from Earth, what's the thing that makes it different?

Alternate introduction question: What's everyone's favorite thing to do here?

[nomoresharks]

Technically I can, yes. But to use creation magicks to do so would only serve to take away the magic of discovery, wouldn't you agree?

That said, I wouldn't be averse to seeking recommendations.

[relictus]

I have no intention of going out to drink with strangers at a bar on an unfamiliar world.

[He has to draw the line somewhere-]

...And there's nothing I like in particular. But if I had to choose, dry red wines are preferable.

[ghoulserrand]

I'm not... a stranger... [He all but pouts. But more to the point--]

We'd... bring them back... of course...

[nomoresharks]

Indeed! I'm sure they'd allow us to bring it here. We are paying them, after all.

[He says with a frightening amount of confidence for someone who has never been to a bar on this world before.]

[relictus]

You aren't, but any bars would naturally be public.

[But of course they'd suggest bringing it back here... Teo wouldn't be able to drink in public to begin with, huh...]

...Regardless, there's no need to include me in any of this. I'm sure the two of you can find plenty enough to talk about without my presence.

[ghoulserrand]

But...! You said... wine's better... for conversation...! Faust...! Please?

[He's punished for his whining with a series of rough coughs that make him rub his throat and grimace.]

Wouldn't be... all the time... just... sometimes hanging out... It's not like... we're busy... I like... your presence...

[nomoresharks]

I must insist as well. We would be much worse without your presence.

[He puts his hand over his heart and leans in, giving the best puppy dog eyes his little gremlin heart can muster]

Will you please reconsider?

[relictus]

That was just... a general statement...

[Gremlin(s) or not, it's hard to defend against their combined pleading...]

Good grief... both of you are overestimating the value of my company, but I can't very well say no when you're so insistent...

[ghoulserrand]

Yes...!

[He throws his hands up, then almost goes in for a high five with Hythlodaeus, only to stop and sheepishly drop his hand back down. All the same, he beams at Faust.]

The value... of your company... would be... what we feel... it is... wouldn't it be...?

[nomoresharks]

[It's probably for the best that Teo lowers his hand, as Hythlodaeus, having little to no familiarity with the gesture, would have left him hanging.]

That's right. 'Tis for us to decide. So have faith, and do try to enjoy yourself. If not for mine, then for Teo's sake.

[He chuckles mischievously.]

[relictus]

[One out of three of the people in this room know how a high five works.]

Hmph... don't say I didn't warn you if you change your minds...

[ghoulserrand]

[That is tragic. One day, he's going to have to teach all of these old men.

His head tilts a little at what Hythlodaus says. For his sake... He's not sure that he'd be that much a priority. Regardless, Faust gives in and he beams.]

I won't... I'm sure...
