text, un: tartaglia

[it's four in the morning, time to ask bordering-on-invasive questions on the network!]

so what did all of you do, anyways?

before you showed up here, i mean. were you just some no-name loser or were you some kind of big shot? i bet it must have sucked if you went from people listening to you and then ending up at the bottom of the food chain!

or are you getting a huge ego boost from this place calling you some sort of hero that's vital to saving all the different worlds out there? does it make you feel important? more then you would have at home, where nothing you did mattered? lol

this gig isn't too different from what i was up to before, honestly. the quests are a bit lower stakes and some of them are so easy it almost makes you want to cry, and i've got way more free time now. still, kind of nice to know there's always room for a weapon. gets you some decent money.

Actor!

I guess for me the big difference here is I had to spend all my savings and maybe sell one of my kidneys to a fairy to make our own theater. Also I don't have to go to school at the same time!

I don't know that I've really done anything heroic so I don't know how vital I am, heh..

how literal is the kidney selling? did they already collect?

[debt collection for the fae… now that’s an idea worth pursuing. he bets it would be interesting.]

what’ve you been doing with your life outside of acting? you do have hobbies and a job that pays, right?

Martial artist, president of Knight Industries, president and CEO of Knight Comics, perpetual college student, part-time bartender, sparring partner for an Olympic athlete, and giant doofus-at-large.

that’s a lot of things to call yourself. just couldn’t find what you were good at, huh?

I lived alone in the forest with my three aunts. It was just the four of us until I was sixteen.

So, I suppose I am one of those "no-name losers" by your standards.

sounds like you might be, yeah.

living in a forest sounds like it was a very quiet life. was ending up in a big city a shock?

I just vanished into thin air before ending up here, after our war was over.

what, do you just exist to fight and go into hibernation or something until your next battle?

sounds like a pretty good gig.

[ oh look someone else with a messed up sleeping schedule ]

I was a big shot at home and it's no real big deal here. I suppose, though, I've always been towards the bottom of the food chain.

[ literally tho ]

Besides, there's ways to get people to listen to you without having to be some big important person.

Edited 2022-02-05 21:42 (UTC)

i guess even the most powerless person can still have a presence.

what kind of big shot are we talking? there’s all sorts here, so where do you fall?

I was dead, and I did some stuff that most people wish they could have done before I got here.

Like ended my world and brought it back, that kind of stuff.

more dead people then i was expecting to see. or at least more open about being dead

i imagine your afterlife was pretty busy if you managed that much.

idk if i mentioned this at work, but its kind of a complicated answer, right?

technically what i was doing was helping my Master stop the end of all humanity, so uh. yeah similar stakes, i guess.

sound pretty similar, though i get the feeling you had less people on your side.

still, at least it means you’re not out of your depth! except for having to learn this new magic and where your limits are now.

( text to voice talks a lot here, but Century Egg hones in on one specific comment this person makes; )

... You're a weapon?

( ...another food soul, perhaps? )

more weapon than man, at any rate.

[childe knows what he is and what he’s best at - he’s a honed blade the tsaritsa can point at her enemies, getting stronger with every fight the fatui throw him into.]

[Maybe it's too damn early in the morning, but Crow rubs the sleep out of his eyes only to read this...whatever this is!]

Rock Musician.

And hell yes, being called a hero gives me an ego boost! What's wrong with that?!

You're asking this out of curiosity, but do you gotta call people 'no-name losers' or say 'nothing they did mattered'? You've got some nerve!

[Crow is on the defensive! Maybe it's a bit too early in the morning, or perhaps this post encroaches on his insecurities or this guy is a jerk!]

Hahaha, did I strike a nerve? Sorry, I didn't mean to!

[He's full of shit.]

But I think what most people do doesn't matter in the end. Most of us will probably be forgotten once we leave this place, anyways, even if we're supposed to be saving worlds, even if we lay down our lives.

[something something nihilism, all that matters is tearing down the heavens or something]

This is the third world I’ve been to away from my home. The last world was some kind of post-apocalyptic space dome on a high radiation planet. There were no quests. I died and came back on that world with problems I never had before. My lungs release smoke for no reason. It’s an odd way to wake up. The world before, I was less than a no-name loser. I rescued people and ran emergency medical transport. Unrecognized and happier for it. I didn’t want attention, but it felt good to help unconditionally. Despite being considered worth less based on something as stupid as hair color. And back home, I was a student. Are you bored in this world?

Edited 2022-02-06 04:28 (UTC)

Third times the charm, huh?

You could say that. Even with all these dragons and other beasties kicking around this place is terribly peaceful, so I need to find something else to do besides wait around for the next fight.

4/10.

Thank you, all I want is the approval of complete strangers.

Hero. God. Wrath that descends upon humanity. It depends on who you ask. In many ways, they are all one in the same.

Those are some pretty heavy titles.

Which one do you like best, Mr. Sephiroth?

I came from some weird sex dungeon city that had an arbitrarily assigned dom/sub hierarchy. I was a dominant, supposedly, so I guess I was something akin to nobility.

Before that, there were a few other places... some adventures to be had, certainly, but there was one that even seemed like a mini-vacation, in retrospect. And originally, I was a hero of the realm at home. So my track record is not bad all-around, I think.

Never heard of anything like that before, but I guess it's not a stretch to say the people who are in power tend to be pretty dominant.

Sounds like you've been pretty busy, though I have to ask - which place have you been to was your favorite? And what even made you a hero to your people in the first place?

apologies, Katsucon ate me

Do you like finding new and creative ways to pick a fight? This doesn't sound remotely like you give a shit about any actual answers.

Yes.

i'm going to throw childe into the sun

I was a famous host back in my world! #1 host of Shinjuku! Coming here without that fame and fortune wasn't too bad, since it was never about that for me. I lived a rather humble home life back then and that will never change.

Number one? How many were you competing against? Sounds like a pretty impressive claim, at least.

Doesn't it get boring to have a quiet life, though?

killed what needed killing

"theres always room for a weapon" yeah right
aint much use for someone like me around here

Maybe you haven't been picking up the right quests, mister. Always someone or something that needs to be killed for things like the "greater good".

Or just because someone hates them.

Do you think you're getting rusty?
