[The following is a message sent to everyone by Papashan, Nanamo's moogle.]

Greetings everyone who have arrived. Her Grace, the Sultana of Ul'dah Nanamo Ul Namo has formerly requested for all of you to attend her housewarming party. On the coming of the month when we are forced to vacate the premises, she has obtained a medium sized home in Sparks Glosaucia through hard work. Those who wish to share a room there for work purposes may request to live with her.

On that note, I wish to hold a surprise bbq for her at the turn of the 17th of this month, weather providing at the old Environs in the housing district. Please bring your own drink, food will be provided. Cooks are especially coaxed for this time.

Please RSVP as soon as possible.

Yours Truly,
Papashan on Behest of her Grace.

[One very excited kid is on screen. Possibly "overexcited," given how trivial his concerns are:]

There's so much food to eat here! And it all tastes really good!

And things have smells and my clothes feel soft... This is amazing! Being alive is so amazing! I'm so lucky to be somewhere like this, and all fixed up..! Oh! What are the best foods to eat? Are there things to smell other than flowers and the ocean? Do people have smells? Can I touch things? Is that allowed? What's allowed? 

There's so much to do, too. I think I decided to u-um... try being a white mage. But what about the other jobs? What jobs does everyone have? Do any of them involve eating a lot? Are we really allowed to try any job? What if I'm bad at it? Will I lose my friends and home?

( The feed shows a very bouncy blonde. Her device is propped on a surface, thankfully, since her energy would cause too much of a vibration. Not exactly conducive to a clear picture.

She holds a piece of paper in one hand and a torn envelope in the other. )

[Today you are all graced with the visage of the Mars marshal, who has finally decided maybe it's time he brings something up here on the network.]

Howdy folks. Name's Sparks Nevada, if we haven't met yet. Before this planet, I was on one called Crystallis. Though before that, I was on Mars, and originally, I'm... from Earth. Thing is, I know a few folks who're from Crystallis that are here, too. It was kind of a similar situation. Y'know, the whole getting dragged outta yer home to be forced to live on another planet with crazy magic and chocobos and all that stuff. The difference there was that we were all considered to be somethin' called "Heroes of Light" and we had to basically save the planet -- the whole multiverse, actually -- from gettin' annihilated. Yer welcome, by the way.

Thing is, there are sure a lotta coincidences on this planet. If the jobs and the races 'a folks and all that ain't enough of a clue, the place names are a dead giveaway. Half of them are named for the Heroes from Crystallis. Even I got one - Sparks Goldsaucia. Pretty cool. Reckon it's all a bit too much to be a coincidence.

Bonnie also brought up the map to me, and... [He looks that over in a separate window.] If ya squint just right, and slide some bits around, sure as heck does look like Crystallis. Durin' that whole apocalypse thing, the planet did get kinda messed up and broken, so I guess we wouldn't have known what the continents looked like after all that. Woulda taken some time to re-map, and I was only there for a month after the whole ordeal was over. Had a planet to get back to marshaling, ya see.

What's my point to all this? Guess my point is that I don't believe in coincidences. The universe is, like, both too big and too small at the same time for that nonsense, if'n that makes any sense at all. It does. I think.

[Look, it's another blonde on the network. However, it was definitely a teenager, and beside him was perhaps the grumpiest Moogle to be seen. It doesn't take long for it to flutter out of view, glowering all the while. Either the boy wasn't bothered by it or just chose to ignore it as he smiled before slightly frowning.]

Hi...

I want to start by taking a moment to apologize. Normally, I'd make an effort to get to know everyone and I wanted to respond to more people on the network, but when we all arrived from the Dream Width, something pretty important to me didn't make it through. Biggs and Wedge managed to find it recently - thanks again by the way. Still, that doesn't excuse my behavior to some people so... I'm sorry about that.

[He nodded his head once and allowed for a beat of silence in which he rubbed the back of his head before recomposing himself]

Anyway, my name's Adrien and I'm from Paris, France on Earth. Until recently, I was homeschooled and I still have a lot to learn when it comes to socializing outside of a fundraiser or a show. Aside from that, I've been tutored in other subjects like Chinese, piano, and fencing, the last I've applied to my asterisk. If you guys ever need a Swordmaster or Ninja, I'm totally up for lending a hand.

[He smiled wider.]

Thanks for your time and I'm looking forward to getting to know everyone.

[And with a wave, the video ended.]

I didn't know we were gonna get the chance to get our own airships! I know I missed being able to wake up and see nothing but sky and clouds out the window. Made drying the laundry a lot easier, too.

But that kinda got me thinking- you couldn't get very far without an airship back where I came from, but a lot of the people I've talked to have said they've never seen anything like them before! I know a few people here have had SOME sort of flying machine back in their world, though. If yours did too, I gotta know- what were they like?

For that matter, how many other pilots do we HAVE here, anyway?

[Welcome to Ka'Pandol, the grand underwater city! The hastily-shot video shows sweeping views of the access tunnels, the light filtering down, a Shoopuf walking past...before centering on the spectacle of what appears to be an empty space that could contain a large sphere. It's currently empty, but that hasn't dampened Tidus' enthusiasm for the sight of it at all. He holds a white and blue ball on his hip, and soon thrusts it out proudly.]

I bet you're wondering what this big stadium's for, right? It's blitzball! Now I've asked around, and hardly any of you from the Dream Width know what blitzball is, so I say we fix that. You game?
further explanation and an offer to train with this doofus )

...Excellent! My Lady, it's ready!

[The interior of a sparsely-decorated room flickers to life over the feed, and it's immediately apparent that the room belonged to one of the newcomers pulled fresh from the Dream Width, and someone is playing some sort of music. But as someone hoists up the slate and swings it to the right, the figure seated in the chair is currently occupied.

Ring-covered fingers are strumming the strings of something guitar-like, and the figure is rather lost in it, singing nothing in particular. This goes on for about ten seconds.]


Ahem... Lady Madhuri?

[The figure sits up a little taller with a start, eyes fluttering open. The music resumed as she continued to strum, but the smile was sheepish as her eyes turned to the screen.]

Oh. Oh! Yes, thank you. I'm sorry, my instruments seem to have been left behind in the last jump. Makes a bard's fingers itchy. This loaner suits me nicely until I pay this world's bard college a visit.

[With a flourish, she raised a hand and wiggled her fingers in greeting.]

Good afternoon. I am Madhuri, a bard and a dancer by trade. I found myself curious, so I had to cut the ribbon on this little network as it were and pose a question:

Where are you from? What's your tale? ...Of what you're comfortable sharing, of course. Perhaps this can grant the opportunity to build a little bit of a... a... ohh, what's the word- rapport! Yes. A rapport.

Tell me tales of adventure, of victories and defeats, of loves won and loves lost! Perhaps I'll create a song out of a few, and it will be a little gift. Free, of course. Unless of course you're willing to tip.

[She pulled her feathered cap from atop her head and gave it a tip.]

That's all from me. Enjoy your day. For those of you still panicking about your situation? Breathe, dear. In and out. It'll be alright. Find friends and hold them dear.

Bye-bye~
