{ yet again, when ayato turns on the camera to do an announcement, he's only half in the screen. part of his face is concealed, just about showing the lower half of his face, shoulders and chest. sadly he's willing to recognise that while he could just type this out, it would take him an awfully long time and while he could just do voice, it doesn't grab attention in the same way.

so, here we are. }

Hello, again.

Last time I voiced something on here it was regarding information I found on the past of this world. I'm still trying to uncover more, but I have started assembling information pamphlets for those that arrive and would like a deeper understanding of the world we're in with what I have already.

On that note, I've managed to acquire a job at the government here with the title 'Otherworldy Ambassador'. Granted, it is not as fancy as it may seem. I'm merely working on a proposition that will aid all of us in these new circumstances, along with the citizens here who are dealing with the changes. I have gathered support from Olwen for this, if only because he understands there is more needed to ensuring people's safety after they are brought here.

I'm reaching out here today to see if there is any interest in helping in any form. While I cannot promise paid jobs right away, I will say there are means we can use to work with the government for extra posts, if anyone is interested. Otherwise, I seek collaboration with anyone wishing to set up a business or charity that may be related to this. I'm considering aspects such as combat, strategy, supply line management and other logistics, counselling... as you can see, there is likely something that may be helpful for most. Of course, this is not the only route nor am I likely the only person trying to work towards something like this, I'm merely offering my expertise if anyone should wish to use it. It's still a work in progress, after all, with hopefully an office or a meeting point ready to be used next month.

Never truer words spoken about our situation.

It isn't, however what would you have said if I told you that it was? Jokes aside, my name is Sabo. Please feel free to call on me with any kind of help. I prefer keeping myself busy.

I would have been a little surprised, though it wouldn't be a first here. But I would like to thank you for the assistance, Sabo. I wasn't sure I would have much traction, but it seems a few people are willing to offer their assistance.

{ sometimes people just need a nudge along }

First to have someone's name be their username or surprised by what their name in general?

It might be a little early to thank me, but you're welcome. And I'll thank you for helping out all of the people in the future and taking up the task of getting this all started.

Their name in general. There is a lot of diversity here, after all. Though I can't imagine a world where someone would name their child 'tophats', even with that being the case.

{ it's a slightly amusing thought though. would be pretty awful for the child in the long run. bullied for sure. }

A thanks is in order for expressing interest, even if it doesn't set anything in stone just yet.

{ they may just go in circles if he denies the second half though, to him it's just his job, in a sense. the people here may not be his people (some are, but not many compared to how many people were brought here) but he still doesn't want to see anyone struggling when he can do something about it. }

[ thank you ayato for not letting this become a circle of platitudes, but at the same time he's extremely valid in that. ]

I can imagine a world where someone might do that to their child. I'm from a world with some pretty colorful names, but I even I have to wonder if anyone would dare do something like that.

{ it could go on forever otherwise... }

I can only imagine what a distaste they'd have for such clothing if they were named it, at least after plenty of people have already pointed out how strange it is.

[ truly. two polite people thanking one another... ]

Or maybe they'd embrace it fully and allow themselves to become the icon. Perhaps find some form of nickname or a pet name for it.

Like 'Toppers' or something.

Somehow it almost seems like the start of a light novel.

Is that a bad thing?

Though I suppose you didn't make this post to talk about such topics.

I would think that would depend on the person.

And while you are correct, it's always helpful to get to know those you will be working with, is it not? A little idle conversation doesn't hurt.

{ he isn't actually a fan of small talk at all, but he also recognises he can't just stand on his surname here kjgnd he needs to use small talk to his advantage. }

You do have a point there. I'd just hate to tie up your time with something like idle chatter, however, if you're fine with it then...

What kind of nickname or pet name do you think could come with that?

If anything, I need the typing practice as well. These devices aren't something we have at home.

And do you mean with a light novel? There are far too many.

I don't have things like this in my home world either. Well, we have things that could be considered similar but nothing quite this advanced.

Maybe not with a light novel—just on its own. What kind of nickname or pet name could you derive from "top hats"?

It is rather remarkable how far they have come here.

As for a nickname or pet name, perhaps 'Topa'? Admittedly this is not my area of expertise.

{ this may or not be because it rhymes with boba... }

[ sir, your boba? which i read as booba at first... ]

From what I can gather from their history, if people don't have to worry about war or drastic upheaval then it allows them to focus on other things. However, by contrast, great innovations can be developed when there is problem that needs a solution quickly.

...

I'm sure the magic probably helped a lot, too.

[ :') ]

Topa... That has a nice ring to it. What do you think of 'Hatti'?

{ an easy mistake................... }

Do you not have magic where you're from? Though I suppose it isn't quite the same where I'm from either.

'Hatti' is fine, though I'm more inclined to go for 'Hatsu'.

[ is it really easy........... is it. ]

No, but I'm slowly becoming jealous that there seem to be a lot of worlds that do. But "isn't quite the same"?

'Hatsu' seems like it would be best as a name on its own rather than a nickname, which isn't a bad thing. Hmm. I imagine something like 'Topper' might cause its own problems.

Only those who have been gifted a 'vision' from an archon have the ability to wield that element. It's a lot more selective than here.

And that certainly seems like it would raise a few eyebrows, indeed. Perhaps not one for a professional environment...

Archon? I see. Are the elements that those with a 'vision' wield dependent on what they 'see' or is it a choice?

But, no. I definitely do not think it would be suitable in a professional environment or even polite company. Unless that company is extremely open and understanding.

'God' may be a term you are familiar with. And a vision isn't what it implies, each vision is specific to whichever archon blessed the user. For example, as a hydro vision holder I can use the element of water.

From my experience that doesn't tend to happen.

I'm familiar with the concepts of 'God' but I don't believe in them. However, I've learned that there are worlds where gods have been proven to be real so this is fascinating. You must be pretty special or lucky to have received such a blessing.

And I have the same experience. I wouldn't mind it myself, but I know I'm in the minority.

I don't think it is that they specifically choose, perhaps it's more accurate to say a certain ambition has to be realised and it sparks a response? Though I couldn't say I'm an expert either.

{ and he wouldn't count it special or lucky when his appeared to him when his father was on his deathbed, his mother not long behind, and a responsibility far bigger than he was ready for weighing on his shoulders. but, he won't say any of that. }

You must come from a very open place, if that's the case.

[ ayato.... ]

My apologies then. Your Archons are certainly interesting when it comes to bestowing their blessings on people. I suppose these ambitions don't necessarily have to be noble by general standards.

But you're only marginally correct. The people who I associate with aren't exactly the most normal to begin with, so a nickname or even a name like 'Topper' wouldn't be too strange.

{ funtimes in teyvat... }

I couldn't say. I only know of a handful of them myself, it isn't as though everyone tells each other why it appeared to them.

But I see. I can see the reasoning of that.

[ are these really fun times? ]

No? I suppose it would be a difficult topic to speak about or, at the very least, perhaps a personal one.

And I view things from the perspective that what someone goes by isn't as important as the work that they're able to do for you.
