Starting with a Bang

Who: HSS & Anyone Incoming
Where: HSS Dorms
When: Day 138 Morning

[ Good morning HSS! I hope you like being woken up by loud crashing noises because that's what's happening this morning. Inspection of the room where said crashing occurred will yield you one heavily tattooed adult (??) with his foot tangled in a blanket, looking sheepishly at his tipped over and mildly destroyed bed. To vouch for his adultness and newbieness, he's wearing a t-shirt and pajama pants. There's a flaming pony on his t-shirt. That's an important detail. ]

Ah jeez... I hope that wasn't expensive.

I'm only teasing you. I'm sure we can work out the sleeping arrangements so that no one is in any danger.

[onetrippony]

That'd be appreciated, thanks. I'll definitely help out in coordinating things for the trouble.

[puzzlekeeper]

[ Shaking his head ]

It's not trouble. We're a team... so we should strive for everyone to be as comfortable as possible.

Especially when they're new.

[onetrippony]

You guys have done a pretty great job of that so far. I'd just like to make sure everyone else isn't holding back for my sake.

[puzzlekeeper]

[ His expression... flickers, just for a second.

What a time to get a newbie. ]

Thank you.

I'm sure it will be fine, though. We can discuss it as a group later.

[onetrippony]

Ah- sure. I get the feeling I'm gonna have my hands full learning the ropes for a few days.

[puzzlekeeper]

Probably a little longer than that.

... No offense. There's just... a lot.

[onetrippony]

Honestly, I don't doubt it.

[puzzlekeeper]

What's the most outrageous thing we've told you so far? That's probably a good gauge of what we haven't covered yet.

[onetrippony]

I would still say the concept of buying new abilities is a bit odd to me?

[puzzlekeeper]

...

Even more than the concept of buying back your own memories?

[onetrippony]

Yeah, actually. Your memories, at least, are things that come and go, but you owned them at one point. An ability you were never capable of performing before, but can suddenly use without the need for training or practice seems odd to me.

[puzzlekeeper]

That's magic for you. Even if all of this is a rather perverted use of it.

[onetrippony]

As one would expect from the lands of hell?
