LIVE: Some Light Reading

Who: Cobalt, Hiryuu, and whoever’s in their dorms right now
Where: your house!
When: throughout Day 166

[ Two be-antlered people stand in the lobby. At the forefront is Hiryuu, holding a large hand-bound book. In the background is Cobalt, a heavy-looking school bag over his shoulder. They both look a little tired--but also happy.

Hiryuu addresses the camera. ]

Hello everyone!

It’s been a while since the Newcomer’s Primer was written and a lot has happened since then. We thought this would be a good time to not only update it, but overhaul it into something that might be helpful for everyone and not just newbies.

As you can see -- [ Hiryuu holds the book up to the camera. It’s massive. ] -- it’s significantly larger than the original booklet! This isn't meant to be read cover to cover but rather to serve as a reference guide to answer any questions that arise for newcomers, returners, and everyone in between.

We've divided it into three sections. The first section is like the original newbie guide, with basic information about what this place is and how it works. It goes into detail about daily life here, from games to Lives to information about the city and how to earn points and so on. It's front-loaded in order of urgency, so if a newbie has only five minutes of attention for reading, hopefully it will still prove useful to them.

Part two of the guide is a rundown of the bigger picture as we know it. It focuses primarily on subjects such as Hell, the hosts, graduations, corruptions, and some of the stranger, unplanned events beyond the production's original scope.

Part three is a timeline of events--games, major incidents, upgrades and holidays primarily. The games all include short "blurbs--"

[ she glances at Cobalt; did she get that word right??? ]

--describing what they involved, so if someone ever mentions a game that happened before you got here, you can look it up if you want.

We'll be coming around to drop off copies at each unit and answer any questions you may have. If nobody’s home we’ll leave a copy in the dropbox. We hope you'll find this useful, either for yourselves or your future "newbies--"

[ again, she looks at Cobalt. Word ?? Right?? ]

--and we look forward to getting the opportunity to speak to you!

[ OOC: view/read the Imeeji Compendium at your leisure here ]

[ The door opens and a kitty cat eye peers out. ]

Mmmmmm, well, I can let you in, but the dumb one in here might go feral without any dog treats.

We don't have to stay long. We're just here to drop off a book.

You're Sabre, right? I saw your Live. I'm Cobalt. It's nice to meet you.

Oooooo, look at that, you're already earning points for getting it right!

[ She opens the door the rest of the way, because getting her name right >>>> food. ]

Haha. I didn't say it earlier, but welcome. To whatever the heck this place is.

Here's a book!

[Now that the door's open more than just a crack, he offers her one]

We wrote a book about [gestures] this place, so if people have questions about some of the weird specific stuff that happens around here, they have somewhere to look up answers. It's mostly geared toward newbies, since there's a lot to get up to speed with when you have amnesia and don't know where you are.
