» It's not super strict, but I try to get up with the sun and get a run in. I don't wanna fall into using "but I got taken to another world" as an excuse for bad habits. I did it the first week. Didn't feel great.

» Machines'll happen eventually. Most of the people here seem to have them. Then maybe someday, someone'll finally put your illustrated memoir on a real printing press. They can do that you know - type up all the words, copy the drawings. I could probably type it up for you in a couple of weeks if I had a desktop computer.

» I'd like that. I don't think you can do it, it'd be more interesting than being stuck here.

» Gonna guess you don't mean taking me to any of *those* places, if it's being used as a behemoth lair. And yeah definitely not going by myself. We've got behemoths too. I'll get Noct and Gladio to go with me if I decide I wanna risk my neck just to find the *wrong* crystal. As curious as I am to see to part of *your* world, enh. Not that part.

» It has? Maybe. Like I said, there was a treaty between the biggest nations to start using the same calendar, so instead of picking one country's calendar and making everybody use it, they started a new one and started counting with 1.

» Yeah, it's easy talking to you. Don't worry I'm not gonna try and unpack why.

» Because it means knowing when to make yourself small and inobtrusive? Like so you won't be a bother to the people around you. "Minimally invasive" sounds like a good thing, though, but when you think about why someone'd be good at it...

» You're not projecting. Pretty much nailed it.

» Emojis and thumbs up. Yeah. I'm teaching you some real high class culture. You wanna learn about magazines and video games next?

» 🐣 There's more than little yellow faces but try not to send me more than five in a row. I'm pretty good at figuring out the meaning of strings of emojis, but I like the way you string together a sentence better.

» You haven't seen me playing the fool? Ugh I've been slacking. I'll get right on that after I finish answering your texts.

» I don't know how else to describe it. The king is was only 50, but he looked older, started using a cane not too long ago. It's gotta be a lot, keeping up a Wall around a city all day and all night. Like the dome shield they've got here, but not too much like it. I'd be pretty pissed if they've got someone powering it here. I think it's tech - made by machines. New fear unlocked.

» Probably has a lot to do with how many of us can read and write, too. I guess I kinda take it for granted. My life's probably easy compared to yours.

» What plans? I don't have plans. There's nothing to do here except wait to get a chance to prove ourselves. Prove that the world's worth saving. Or to think about how *I* can possibly do *that*. I think being from a world with an empire that's hell bent on ripping the world apart and doesn't care how many people die along the way... it's a lot to convince an AI to ignore when she's deciding which worlds get to keep spinning. Oh or practicing with a bone dagger because "faes don't like iron" so that's really gonna make me be useful and feel safe. So distract me.

» Lonely. But I don't know if it always is, or if it's all in the extenuating circumstances.
