[ The video starts with Aqua trying to drink from a tea cup only it's shaking and her face is full of dreed. ]

Why?

[ The tears are starting to flow, and now the tea cup is thrown to the ground, shattered in pieces. ]

I was finally starting to have a decent not debt filled life and I get thrown into another world again? Seriously? I DON'T EVEN HAVE ALL OF MY SKILLS HERE, WHAT SORTA PERSON STRIPS YOU OF DECENT SKILLS?

[Ugh tears. Uncomfortable.

Oh well, at least this could be entertaining.]


What kind of skills did you have?
bakudan_bambino: (have any theories to go with that tie?)

[personal profile] bakudan_bambino 2021-09-14 09:28 pm (UTC)(link)
Is there a need for something like that here?
bakudan_bambino: (orange)

[personal profile] bakudan_bambino 2021-09-20 04:51 pm (UTC)(link)
I'm not saying it's useless.

A lot of us had powers that are just... gone now. I could be more benefit to this world with mine, but... we're all just along for the ride.
bakudan_bambino: (for what you're not)

I had energy that I could apply to people and weapons. Energy that could heal, destroy, numb, reinforce, and propagate. I built an entire weapon system around it. I had shields and a storm leopard.

Though... he's just a normal leopard now. He used to be an extension of my spirit...

So, I get it.

It really sucks, to say the least.

[Hendrik understands lamenting, certainly. But there's definitely something to be said about making things worse for oneself.]

Ah... If you are trying to remain debt-free, you may wish to be careful with your dishes.
standvastig: (Considering this situation)

[personal profile] standvastig 2021-09-15 01:24 am (UTC)(link)
Certainly, I can understand being frustrated by suddenly appearing in another world.

[He's not one to throw these, though... He scratches his beard in thought.]

Perhaps the bright side is that the debt from your world does not follow you here?
standvastig: (But what do you mean?)

[personal profile] standvastig 2021-09-22 09:22 pm (UTC)(link)
Many requests show up through these devices on an 'application' called QuestBoard. There are some that pay very well, and more mundane requests if you cannot go out and kill a giant insect or some other monsters.

I am sure you will be fine if you take care of your tableware.
standvastig: (Contemplation)

[personal profile] standvastig 2021-09-25 06:54 pm (UTC)(link)
I cannot say I have seen monster toads around...

[That doesn't mean there aren't monster toads around, though.]

That may change as more specific quests come up, though. I have already heard of giant bees and squid. Why not giant toads?

I realize it's a lot, but surely it's not all that bad?

And what do you mean by skills?

[Gaius' natural voice is gentle and soothing. Maybe that might help someone who seems a little on edge?]
wherethewindtakesme: (smile)

[personal profile] wherethewindtakesme 2021-09-17 12:31 am (UTC)(link)
Really? You sound like you might have elemental and healing. I have that combination as well. Only that wind seems to be the strongest element for me.
wherethewindtakesme: (hmm)

[personal profile] wherethewindtakesme 2021-09-20 12:45 am (UTC)(link)
Oh, I'm not a priest, I'm way too young for that.

[Not that he'd given that serious thought, although he did pray to Aidios and the winds like any good highlander did.]

Do only priests have magic where you're from?
wherethewindtakesme: (hmm)

[personal profile] wherethewindtakesme 2021-09-27 12:01 am (UTC)(link)
I'm...not sure I understand but that must be how magic is allocated in your world. It sounds very literal. Your world must be fascinating.

[A complainer, oh dear. The hedgehog is not amused.]

You're not the only one in such a position, and those of us who are aren't whining about it.

And yet, here we are with only you doing so.

Hm, you end up in different worlds often?

Then you have less reason to complain, as you have experience.

H-Hey, it's okay! It might seem a little overwhelming at first, but it's not really so bad here! At least we don't start off with any kind of debt here, and it's not too difficult to earn money.
doctorintern: (pic#14718805)

[personal profile] doctorintern 2021-09-15 10:08 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah...I mean, as long as you're staying at the inn. The rooms they provide there are free. And breakfast is also provided at the inn until a certain time.
doctorintern: (pic#14715672)

Sorry about the delay!

[personal profile] doctorintern 2021-09-24 08:00 am (UTC)(link)
Well, some people might feel the rooms are a bit small. And they don't provide lunch and dinner, so you'd have to get that on your own, but there isn't a lot of space for cooking anything elaborate if that's your thing.
doctorintern: (pic#14718815)

[personal profile] doctorintern 2021-09-26 10:30 am (UTC)(link)
Ah perfect! So you should be all set then!

You should have a bit of money to start, but you'll have to find a means to earn more. But that should be a problem either, there are plenty of opportunities here.

[She sighs before turning the thing on; something tells her she was due for a headache.]

Take a long, deep breath, lady. You got new powers, and there are jobs everywhere. You can just train and even sleep at the inn for free. It's not that hard.

[personal profile] crimsongirl 2021-09-15 02:25 pm (UTC)(link)
They won't work exactly as they did in your world. With the water, you probably got elemental. If you got that spell line-up, then--

[She holds up her hand, flames engulfing it. Yet the fire would soon fade, electricity suddenly the next to crackle. It would continue like this for another few seconds, shifting to Homura's hand surrounded by water, then ice, and finally by rocks. Such a thing was easy to do thanks to months of nonstop training.]

You can learn how to use all of these eventually.
crimsongirl: (deep breath to avoid anger)

[personal profile] crimsongirl 2021-09-19 10:20 pm (UTC)(link)
An explosion of fire, sure. Lots of things are possible so long as you train.
crimsongirl: (hm?)

[personal profile] crimsongirl 2021-09-24 08:48 pm (UTC)(link)
Skill points? Your world some kinda RPG or something?
