[Forum post! It goes up bright and early Monday morning.]

Has anyone gotten to play with the alchemical tablets being sold in-game yet?

What do you guys think?

The alchemists made tablets? o_o This really shouldn't surprise me, and yet...

[firecracker_hopping]

I know, right? They're kinda expensive so I'm trying to save up money for one.

But they look like they're e-readers for Zen.

[turnsteptwirl]

Why do I have the feeling the rogues helped this little idea of theirs along?

I wish I could see them and play with one, though. It sounds so cool.

[firecracker_hopping]

I know, right? It's like this awesome best of both worlds things.

You're probably right about the rogues, though. They're hard to find in Bastan. :|

[turnsteptwirl]

Now I'm starting to wonder what else they might be able to do in the future.

Yeah, most rogues tend to avoid Bastan for good reason. You might be able to find some in Safta, though. Mine operated out of the Nenakret for awhile, so you could always try there once you have the money saved up. Better than Pakerion, anyway.

[firecracker_hopping]

Hmm~

I should do that! Go down to the Nenakret. I always liked how it looked.

Do you think they'll ever get alchemy-powered music players?

[turnsteptwirl]

If they get enough of them to look at, probably. That's probably how they came up with their tablets, too.

[firecracker_hopping]

...so if we started dragon mailing random alchemists our old players we're not using anymore...

Magic happens!?

[turnsteptwirl]

It's possible? I'm not sure. I mean, I'm sure the rogues brought the alchemists some stuff to poke at, but they have a business relationship. I don't know how the alchemists would react to random devices showing up on their doorstep.

[firecracker_hopping]

True... I know I'd be freaked out.

It'll be really cool whenever they do it, though.

[turnsteptwirl]

I was going to suggest sending things to Nayan and then he'd bring them to the alchemists for you, but that'd probably be a bad plan. He'd want something else from you in exchange for delivering it.

[firecracker_hopping]

Hmmm.

It'd depend what he wants, I think... it'd be better to just find an alchemist directly.

[turnsteptwirl]

Honestly, I have no clue what he'd want from anybody anymore. Nayan's kind of operating under his own rules these days.

[firecracker_hopping]

Oh! Uh, did you... you know, I don't think there is a polite way to ask this discretely.

[turnsteptwirl]

I don't think discreet is a thing that's really happening any more with all this crazy stuff going on, honey. Ask away.

[firecracker_hopping]

Well... all right. Are you Nayan's player? Were you? I'm not sure what the nicest way to ask is.

If you'd rather PM about it, that's cool.

[turnsteptwirl]

Oh, honey, it's a perfectly good question. You don't have to worry about terminology or anything like that. Least not with me.

Yeah, Nayan's mine. I created him, but I can't really call myself his player anymore, considering he's a living, breathing person now.

[firecracker_hopping]

Aw, thanks. I wasn't sure and didn't want to assume.

I like the way you put it, too.

[turnsteptwirl]

Well, most of the former characters I've run into tend to call us "creators" rather than players. It made more sense, at least to me.

[firecracker_hopping]

Creator? I like that. It makes sense. And it sounds a lot nicer, too!
