[this took seriously like 45 attempts.]

My name is Catherine Hau, and I am the new Vairya.

Acher attacked Enghelab with a bunch of goons. The last Vairya died. He got eaten by a man who became a Warhound. I hear that is new. I would not know. But, I was there and I am the Vairya now.

Acher is taken care of. I hear bad things happen in the Nenakret, too, so know that. We handle him.

English is not my first language. You can probably tell. Still I want to talk more than the last guy because he was an idiot.

[helpful drawing of a man with the Vairya's symbol instead of a face laid out on a couch with a big ZZZZZ sleep bubble overhead; the background is just fire and people running around panicking.]

Write to me if you need help from me or the Rogues.

Well, at least you're actually talking to us. That's already an improvement. I know you said English isn't your first language, but you'd never know. If you're self-conscious about it, don't be.

I'm glad you got Acher. We didn't have the opportunity when we went to take back Bastan.

We're still dealing with clean-up of our own out here, but if my mages can help you out, let me know.

I get that. Sometimes, you want to be able to take care of yourself.

I'm guessing from your original signature that your primary language is Chinese? My written isn't all that great, but if you need something translated, let me know? I'm pretty sure I'm the only guild leader who'd be able to even attempt something like that, and I don't want you to feel like you're out of the loop just because we might be losing you on the language.

Speaking of, do you have an email account set up? If you do, I want to add you to the list. This way if the guild leaders are emailing around important information, we don't leave you out. We never had the previous Vairya's since, you know, he didn't talk to us.
turnsteptwirl: (jazz hands!)

[personal profile] turnsteptwirl 2013-12-03 03:19 pm (UTC)(link)
Noted! I'll add it.

I'm not sure I'd go so far as to call him "stupid", but that's more because I didn't know him. But don't worry. You're off to a much better start.

[oh god oh god someone ELSE is dead? this is seriously not news she wanted to hear, but she needs to respond like a grownup, right?

and Acher died? or is captured? queasy relief-dread mix. she really is just done with death regardless of whose it was and wants to go back to high school, where nobody died and it wasn't the apocalypse, thanks]


Thank you for reaching out. I appreciate the offer of assistance. We may need it. We're still investigating to identify the conspirators behind the attack earlier this week.

[would rogues be helpful in that?? can she trust the rogues under a mysterious new leader???? she doesn't know, she's going to have to ask someone...

she would like to trust this person though, this person communicated international news with cartoons this is clearly someone Harriet can get along with]


[...]

This will possibly sound weird but do you have a sister?

[hold up now WHAT

ticklepocalypse girl is the new Vairya?

that is way too many people she happened to already know suddenly turning out to be guild leaders

IS THERE SOMETHING TO THIS?!]


Wait, whaaaaaat!?
suddenly_science: (intense)

[personal profile] suddenly_science 2013-12-04 03:41 am (UTC)(link)
That is nuts, though!!!

...I'm glad the monster didn't become the Vairya.
suddenly_science: (oh boy)

[personal profile] suddenly_science 2013-12-05 01:10 am (UTC)(link)
How are you adjusting???

You have a supertongue! What does a supertongue do?
suddenly_science: (uncomfortable)

[personal profile] suddenly_science 2013-12-05 03:11 am (UTC)(link)
....being suddenly rich is one of the best parts of being a guild leader, yes.

I kinda got something like that too! The brain made me able to talk as fast as I think. Because I'm actually thinking as fast as I think instead of vague almost-word-thoughts, I guess.

Super speed actually sounds much more useful than lies, I mean, you don't need a ton of lies anymore once you've already got a lot of money. Although I guess you're supposed to make more money. I don't totally understand what it is Vairyas do.

......is this too informal a chat, actually? I probably shouldn't be admitting that.

[then why didn't she cross it out or rewrite the letter?

BECAUSE TAI FENG SEEMS COOL AND IT'S EASIER TO BE BUDDIES WITH THE OTHER GLS THAN TO BE FORMAL AND PROPER OKAY]
suddenly_science: (eh heh)

[personal profile] suddenly_science 2013-12-08 07:04 pm (UTC)(link)
Assistants are the best! Thank God(s?) for assistants.

Laughing at formality is fine by me. Formality stinks. What fort of things do you think you will do? Or are they secret thief things?

[should Harriet disapprove of secret thief things? But secret thief things sound kind of badass and exciting and she likes to live vicariously through badass and exciting people. She really should have consulted with an adviser before starting this conversation]

Tag like graffiti?!?!?!?

I guess graffiti-ing castles is a valid Vairya agenda item, sure, who am I to say?

Do you do pictures or letters or what

[Harriet shouldn't you disapprove of this at least a little]

I am not sure I am up to the responsibility of choosing a famous landmark for you to vandalize. [plus the idea of having that on record seems like a poor plan somehow]

But keep me updated on your exploits!

[this is still weird for him, people suddenly taking over guilds. he has no idea who this one even is, and had no idea who the last vairya was... and the whole werewarhound thing sounds... bad... hopefully this is a one-time deal...]

Welcome aboard.

When you say 'taken care of', does that mean he's finally dead?

I was in Enghelab with my druids, but didn't manage to get the fucker. He messed up my arm pretty good, though.
andlivefreely: (Watch them tight)

[personal profile] andlivefreely 2013-12-09 04:50 pm (UTC)(link)
Good. He deserved it.

Were you alone in the fight? Can't imagine he was easy to take down. The fucker was fast.
andlivefreely: (When you sleep)

[personal profile] andlivefreely 2013-12-09 09:12 pm (UTC)(link)
Guess I won't be challenging you to a race. Though being Vairya you'd probably cheat anyway. But then I guess I could cheat, too.

Glad it all worked out. If you need anything the druids can help out with, let me know. Spirits and shit. Some healing, too, I guess, though nothing beats a cleric. Or throwing a party. We throat some crazy ass parties.

[He compares this to the signature on the other letters. Huh...]

We've already met, haven't we?

Even if the rogues were seen poorly after the war, taking care of Acher should do a lot to change people's minds. [... mixed feelings, though] Thank you for doing that.

You sound like you're doing well, especially considering. But my offer to help still stands, Vairya or not.
brokencrescendo: (.....)

[personal profile] brokencrescendo 2013-12-10 06:37 pm (UTC)(link)
Don't worry about offering it back just yet. I'm sure we'll get plenty of opportunities.

And it is a lot to figure out and get used to. Thanks for getting in touch so quickly. I'd like to think it helps if we can all try to be in contact with each other. Even without Acher or Aerveas, Pakerion was never known for its peacefulness.

[It comes a day late. It's scrawled out roughly, too; Lera does this one when she's recovering. She doesn't make the connection between Catherine Hau and Tai Feng, who is annoying and awful, though.]

Sorry to answer late. Welcome to the ranks.

We can talk more later. Things are still confused down here after the attack.
