Right, so. That was a lot. But we probably don't have time to unpack all that crap. So, easier things first. I'm looking for someone who knows about ... magic.

Specifically the kind to "enhance" something.

[He almost leaves it at that, before his brain reboots, and realizes exactly how that sounded -]

Senses. Enhancing senses. Like sight.

Specifically sight.

Glasses don't really work for my face.

They're for humans, usually. And I have no idea if this place has contact lenses.

[infiniteban]

Oh my mistake for assuming you were human. That's on me. I'm an ally of all kinds, you can count of me.

[thearchangel]

Wait, really?

You're serious?

[Because this would be a first, here.]

[infiniteban]

What? What do you mean? 'course I'm serious, I ain't a liar.

[he'd like to say you could ask anyone from home and while he thinks Jack and Jerry MIGHT back him here Travis did participate in a mob that once-upon-a-time tried to kill both those guys (though primarily Jerry) because he was blinded with passion towards a cause he thought was just

so

y'know

he's not always on the right side]

[thearchangel]

It's just been a long time since I ran into someone here who was familiar with races other than humanity. So I'm a little surprised.

[Hardly anyone brought here seems to know other species exist. It's been a long time.]

[infiniteban]

[oh well he was thinking an ally of all sorts like Girl Power!™ and uh

well he doesn't know a ton else in the echo chamber that is his small town but if you don't go around murdering innocent people (and being the raging asshole that Miller turned out to be) you're okay in his book

but he could easily tack aliens onto that no problem, he had a bunch of arms and was a crazy abomination recently enough--a fever dream, sure,

and there's a manshark in Solvunn so what're you going to do really

and dogbats back home

he's got an open mind he's here for you!! but wow sorry to burst your bubble buddy he didn't mean to]

Familiar is putting it strongly I wouldn't say I had any firsthand accounts, I don't wanna be getting your hopes up or anything, but I'm not so close-minded to think there's nothing else out there, I know there's unexplainable things.

[that he's tried to hunt OH OKAY he's gotta be more careful now okay shit]

[thearchangel]

[Yeah, to be fair, the shark man running around probably is a little more of a shock than dinosaur-bird-alien.]

Hey, at this point, in this world, I'll settle for people just doing a second look. 'Open minded' works just fine.

[You know, initial awkwardness aside and all. But that one's on Garrus. He has a habit of doing that by accident.]

At least if you end up in the Free Cities area, you won't be one of the ones screaming.



That's
probably funnier if this were a video call or something.

[infiniteban]

[He might still end up the one screaming, anyway. It's hard to curb initial reactions.]

Yeah this whole method of text messaging is weird but cool but a guy misses his ability to send videos and pictures

[thearchangel]

Tell me about it!

There's not even an extranet here. I can't call up any kind of information to explain anything.

[You try explaining a hanar without photo examples.]

[infiniteban]

Maybe we can build something with all our mind powers combined. An evolved psychic network.

[he is NOT THE PERSON to look to/trust/ANYTHING on this]

We all got this superpower right? But then I guess that leads to people hacking our heads and I can't handle that.

[thearchangel]

I mean that's not a terrible idea. An actual network would be something to look into. I know we can all access this one, but it'd be a hell of a lot easier to get information to the locals in emergencies.

... I don't think people can hack our brains. Even here. I think you're safe.
