[ It'd kinda taken a backseat with everything else going on, but there's still something that's been bothering her a bit. She could just dismiss it as a kid making things up but... after everything she's experienced here, and back home, she's got a gut feeling there's more to it.

She can't search the internet like she used to but... well that doesn't mean crowdsourcing is off the table. ]

Hey, did anybody else run into a weird girl on their first day here? A little kid, blonde hair.

Also does anybody know what the name of this "linkshell" means? Kali Shashidhwaja. She mentioned that, along with telling me that "she" would try to hurt me if I ever lost it and was alone.

[ As a final note, she added the two pictures the girl had doodled, described as follows: " There was a crude drawing of a feminine figure with purple eyes standing over what appeared to be the corpses of a human and a moogle, looking a bit eerily similar to Futaba and her moogle even though the drawing was crude. " Along with "This time the figures looking like Futaba and her moogle were standing alive, and were surrounded by other figures. They faced toward the purple-eyed figure, who seemed to be fleeing."

And now, to see what information others might have... ]

[Seriously...]

[Johanna give her patience, this girl...]

You don't have to wear the robes. This won't be like our outfits.

[THANK GOODNESS.]

[promiselisting]

[ She actually liked her Phantom Thief outfit... It was all futuristic, and really cool-looking.

Ah well.

Okay actually... taking this a bit more seriously. And starting to skim through the offered information. ]

You use cards to fight?

[ Although hm... strengthening the abilities of your allies, and healing... It's a bit more hands-on than she's used to but she can sort of see where Makoto's going with this. ]

[studdedcouncilprez]

[Oh few. Thank goodness. Because truth be told, that job sounded more like what Futaba was used to. A little more front-line, but then there wasn't any pure navigators either.]

Mhm. And if you look at them, you can see that one is Tarukaja, Sukukaja, and Rakukaja. You can heal, too.

I think you can do it and would be a fabulous Astrologean. You've already showed your versatility online and you've come a long way with coming outside.

Just... think of this as... a bonus level.

[SHE'S TRYING??]

[promiselisting]

[ Okay that was. Actually kind of endearing. Although honestly this was kind of more like some kind of DLC, or an expansion pack on an MMO. She's... she'll let it be, for now though. In recognition of Makoto's effort. ]

Yeah, something like that.

I guess I can probably look into it, at least.

[ She'll never be completely sure until she gives it a try, at least. ]

[studdedcouncilprez]

[Well, she's smiling. That's a step in the right direction? Try as she might, Makoto was never satisfied with her ability to help ease a person's fears. That was something that Ann and even were much better able to do.]

[She'll take this small victory.]

Mhm. There are other jobs you may want to consider. Feel free to borrow my pamphlet, if you like. I've made sure to note the ones that stood out for me.

I'm sure you'll pick something that interests you.

[promiselisting]

Yeah.

[ She'll probably do that. Someone else had already mentioned needing to fit in while they were here too. Adapting to this world's rules, since their own's were off the table.

It's not ideal, but she'll take it. ]

Thanks, Makoto.

[studdedcouncilprez]

[She nods. Hopefully they'll be able to go to the guilds soon and see what this job thing was all about.]

No problem. And if you're ever having trouble and need somebody to talk to, do feel free to bring those worries to me or Ren.

We're all in this together, after all.
