Testing, testing~

[Those being observant and/or constantly refreshing the forums will note that the latter chunk of this post was added in shortly after. If not, he didn't remove the "testing" part above, so that's still there.]

Oh, so this works! How wonderful! I assume this is this "internet" I've been hearing so much about? This is so exciting! I've wanted to see how it worked, but apparently the specifics are a bit beyond me. Some sort of magical/alchemical thing.

I think introductions are in order. My name is Nayan. Some of you may have heard of me, some of you may not. If you haven't, well, you'll certainly be seeing a lot more of me.

Now... who are all of you? Most of you would be players, I'm assuming, yes?

You're not the only person who can read this, though. I'd rather not have everyone know my name offline.

Just call me REM, or something. Ferrus is fine, too, I guess, but I'm not sure how he'd react to that, either.

[senecio]

I think "REM" might be worse. Don't you think you could give me something that sounds more like a name?

Well, I can honestly say that if it were me, I'd be a little upset. It seems mine decided to use my name all over these "forums" of yours. Then again, he isn't exactly the most creative person in the world. I suppose choosing another name to have people use might have been a bit much for him.

[ There's a pause while Jamie thinks. And then finds the accent marked o online to copypaste. ]

Would Rötchen work?

Yeah. I don't know with him. Although, I don't normally use his name except for in the game. If people called me Ferrus out of game, it'd be a little bit weird to me I mean, even if I play him, he's not me.

[ Do you understand that feeling, Nayan? ]

[senecio]

Yes. Although how do you make those little dots over that o?

Of course you aren't him. It would be a little silly for anybody to think you were.

[redeyedmask]

If you're using a computer keyboard, most will produce the symbol if you press the ALT key and enter [ alt code he googled ] on the number pad. Otherwise, you can just use o. It works just as well.

Yeah. I mean, I am. Tehnically. But. With all this stuff about him becoming his own person. That won't be true for much longer, will it?

[ You can only disbelieve for so long. He got his leg healed by clerics, and he's... willing to believe in it. For now. ]

[senecio]

But Rotchen doesn't look nearly as nice.

Probably not. It seems like we all have our strings cut one way or the other. His will be sooner or later, I'd imagine.

[redeyedmask]

True. You could just select it and paste it, if whatever you're using supports that. Most portable electronics support stuff like that if you hold down the 'o' button, too. It'll show you a list.

[ He's tech supporting like woah. ]

Probably. I'm hoping he doesn't react badly to my existence. But maybe that's hoping for a bit much.

[senecio]

....paste it?

It depends on the kind of person he is, sweetie. One of my friends was rather upset when he found out.

[redeyedmask]

Select it, 'copy' it, and 'paste' it. You make a copy of the text and put it somewhere else. Most tech these days can at least do that.

Yeah. I guess I have to wait and see, but. I don't want him to have to deal with realizing that his life was written by someone else without someone to help him if he needs it.

[ Oh yeah no. That struck out part? Edited out a few seconds after. ]

[senecio]

But how do I do that?

"But", honey?

[redeyedmask]

Well, I'm still not sure what you're using. Is the screen a touchscreen? You can just drag your finger on it, if it is. Otherwise, I wouldn't know.

But. I'd like it if he didn't have to deal with realizing he was written alone.

[ Once again, ninja edit. Sorry, Nayan! ]

[senecio]

Oh. Interesting!

That's a little silly. Most of us find out we were created by one of you people.

[redeyedmask]

It is silly, yeah. Sorry, I'd just like him to not have to deal with it. It sounds like a hard thing to hear, that someone's written you and everything about you.

[ Why Jamie's agnostic... ]

[senecio]

"Rembleton"? Really, sweetie?

[socarnivorously]

It's got a certain charm.

[senecio]

I suppose it does! I think I like you. Much more helpful.

[socarnivorously]

Glad to be of service.

[senecio]

Do I get a name from you, sweetie, or shall I make something up?

[socarnivorously]

Oooooh.

Makes something up! That sounds like fun.

[senecio]

Ah, but left to my own devices, I might come up with something terribly uninventive. I may have inherited my player's lack of naming creativity.

[socarnivorously]

Then let us collaborate. We'll each pick a letter until a name is formed.

I'll give the honors of going first to you.

not even replying alex please
