Coin and Country

Good day everyone, I trust everyone is well this day.

I have a proposition to benefit everyone. Since our arrival, I have looked into investing what little coin I have managed to earn into the local markets and economy and I have managed to wring coin from whatever I have found profitable. That being said, I would like to extend some of my findings to those who are looking to turn a profit.

My nation has a saying: For Coin and Country. One cannot found those airships without coin, and certainly without capital. It will be laborious but everyone needs to chip in.

If you wish to discuss business, I will be at my home, for the following week.

Sincerely yours, Nanamo Ul Namo.

voice; Awake is difficult and no one understands

[ Huh. Here is an unusual thing. Futaba is not usually one to use voice (or anything besides text) on the network. Maybe she wants to reassure other people with her voice and to hear theirs? Maybe it has something to do with the fact that her voice is still a bit muzzy with sleep. Maybe text requires more coordination than she has right now.

Either way, she's got an important post from her sort-of-brother to follow up on. ]


So.

[ There's a long, pregnant pause. ]

How many other memes are you all familiar with? Scientific curiosity.

[ She's been getting reputations up until now. The girl who gathers information. That one who really really mistrusts the Curti Center and is not afraid to be vocally critical of it. But it's past time she showed the world here who she truly is-

a shitposter. ]

HOW TO SNED A MESSAGE TO A LINKSHELL

mOOGLE HOW TO SEND MESSAGE TO LINKSHELL

[A few minutes later, all members of the Linkshell receive a video message. Ganeshan stands in front of the camera, eyes bloodshot. He looks like he hasn’t slept in a few weeks, and it might be through sheer enthusiasm that he’s still standing. Behind him is Jessie, who gestures in the direction of the camera.]

It’s recording for you. Just let me know when you’re done, and then you’ve got to go lay down for a while, okay?

YES, YES, I’LL REST ONCE I’VE SENT THE MESSAGE.

[He pauses, as if he’s zoning out, then gives his headfins a shake and refocuses on the camera.]

RIGHT, THE MESSAGE. WE’VE DONE IT! THEY SAID IT COULDN’T BE DONE, BUT CYDE KARATER AND I FINALLY FIGURED IT OUT!! WE’RE GOING TO MAKE NEW ASTERISKS USING THE POWERS AND SKILLS YOU HAD ON YOUR HOME WORLDS!!!

[As he delivers this life-changing news, he goes through a variety of victory poses- peace sign, fist pump, finishing with a sparking grin/thumbs up combo. He pauses for dramatic effect.]

THAT’S NOT TO SAY THERE ISN’T STILL SOME FINAL DETAILS TO WORK OUT, BUT WE’RE SO CLOSE. WE’LL NEED TO HARVEST SPECIAL CRYSTALS TO FORM THE ASTERISK THEMSELVES, AND OF COURSE, WE WILL NEED YOU TO PROVIDE THE SKILLS THEMSELVES. BUT WITH YOUR HELP, WE SHOULD BE ABLE TO IMPLEMENT OUR THEORIES AND MAKE THE IMPOSSIBLE POSSIBLE! I’M SENDING YOU A FILE….WELL, JESSIE IS SENDING YOU A FILE (THANK YOU, JESSIE!)…TO LET YOU KNOW HOW YOU CAN HELP. THE MORE HANDS WE HAVE ON DECK, THE QUICKER WE CAN MAKE THIS THING HAPPEN! I BELIEVE IN ALL OF YOU. NONE OF THIS WOULD BE POSSIBLE IF YOU HADN’T ARRIVED!

[The attached message will list the various ways the outworlders and Curti Center employees can assist in Ganeshan’s research and development of Custom Jobs.]

[Voice]

Hey, everyone. I hope you're all in good spirits today.

[The voice coming across on the network is friendly enough. Legault isn’t here to be sleazy...for the most part.]

It’s been a while since we all had that dinner to remember together, hasn't it? I’ve been thinking since then, and I’m sure you all have been as well. You’re a helpful lot like that. Here’s my question for you, then. Do you consider yourself to be a Hero of Light now? Do you feel any more heroic? Or maybe you were a hero back home? I guess I’m curious.

[And then there’s silence for a moment. Unfortunately for someone else, he starts speaking again.]

That reminds me. My roommate—her name is Mòrag. I fear she’s been a little lonely lately, and I hardly ever see her socializing. If you see her, won’t you try to befriend her? You have my gratitude in advance.
