JANUARY MINGLE | OPEN

[oneandmikleonly]

[It's a new year! Well, by the fragile construct of calendar time we're creating on this planet, anyway.

Here's a an open mingle for all your January needs! Are you trying to stalk our new alien stalkers back, or reach out to them, or fight them? Building? Exploring the biomes, for fun and/or to uncover more about our alien friends? Researching? Hugging URSULA? Raising Birdogs or getting involved with other wildlife? Making or breaking resolutions? OTHER? Whatever it is you're doing, you can put it here.

Don't forget to check the OOC plotting post to see what's going on and get involved with missions!]

[ ..... Why those names, though... Does she think that they're edible? ]

... Do they seem appreciative of those names?

[godstongue]

[ She's just trying to be funny... and they're cute. ]

I would hope so, but honestly we won't be sure until they finally hatch. [ A pause. ] ... What if they hate them?

[aspearing]

[ It's not her fault. Alisha's just too serious for her own good. ]

I believe that anyone would be happy to receive a name if they weren't yet given one.

[godstongue]

So then they'll be happy... [ She takes a breath. ]

If they desire to be called something else then I won't be against it, I only wish for them to be healthy.

[ Because they're just babies! But then again maybe she's taking this too seriously. ]

Question, if you don't mind me asking, but have you ever seen these creatures before where you're from?

[aspearing]

[ .... She's a rather kind-hearted person, isn't she? She can't help but smile at her words before she shakes her head. ]

I do admit that I've seen some odd things recently in my own world, but... this isn't one of them. I assume that it's the same for yourself?

[godstongue]

[ Don't say that out loud or she'll scream. ]

Not at all. When I first heard about them I thought that it was a simple mispronunciation, I can't even recall any species that have gone extinct that are similar.

[aspearing]

I'm sure that you'll find other things here that are rather strange. Though, there's others that are fascinating and amazing, as well.

[ Though, that does make her wonder... ]

Did you only recently arrive here?

[godstongue]

Well just being in the kitchen for the majority of the time here I've come across some strange animals, certainly. And considering this is the sea I can only imagine there are more at large we're not even aware of.

[ She nods her head before responding. ]

Well I say that, but I've been here for over a month now... but it was only recently that I left the underwater base.

[aspearing]

Have you? .. I apologize or not greeting you sooner, then. [ If she would've known that she was new, she could've helped her to get used to this place... ]

How does it feel to be outside of the base for the first time?

[godstongue]

No need to apologize. I did not come expecting to be introduced to everyone within a day, especially with how I arrived.

[ She still remembers her first day fondly. ]

It feels... hm. [ She ponders for a moment. ] Refreshing. I've kept myself busy in the kitchen at the underwater base, however... this is a nice change of pace. I haven't done much besides that.

[ Which makes her sound like a loser. And that's because she is. ]

Do you mind me asking what you usually do here?
