Who: IT'S A GAME MINGLE GET IN THE VAN
Broadcast: If you want!
Action: All of it!
When: Second half of the month.

[hey everyone! how's it been going? how's medieval-fun-time-world treating you? anyone pillaged and burned anything yet? got kicked out of the castle? been planning expeditions? registered for jousting? busy angsting for the last two weeks on your ship?

this is a mingle for everybody, whether they're hiding in the volcano, out and about in the city, or up on one of those random random stations where you can get quirky souvenirs.]

Yeah, it is.

[He looks so inspired.]

It'll be black, then. Thanks, this is... [he smiles, and shakes his head.]

This is gonna be a really cool project. It's gonna help a lot of people.

Tasty vegetables that aren't a goo! And medical leaves not from my head!

[ ... Yes that is just what he said. ]

... From your head?

[please show me this]

I'm pretty sure it's lungwort.

[ He rustles his hair - yep, leaf sounds - before realizing that RIGHT.

He looks like a human still.

Let him fix that. Hand from hair to that collar thing and where did the button go-

There we go now he's purple again. ]

[he jumps a little--he didn't know what to expect, but purple certainly wasn't on the list. he's staring wide-eyed, but not out of horror. he's examining him out of curiosity.]

Whoa... Wow, this is cool...

[ Purple and red! Although it's currently daytime so there's no purple spots to his hair, just faintly less red spots.

But he is pretty clearly living plants twined and shaped into something human-ish.

... and it's totally spring, and there's pollen as he tilts his head. ]

Sylvari are very unknown, I am finding...

[oh god i'm glad i don't have allergies]

Yeah, no kidding... I gotta say, I was hoping I'd get to see you out of your disguise. I mean, it's... kind of rude, sorry. But you're really cool... I've never seen anything like you.

I don't really like looking like a human either. So if you are being a little rude by not wanting to see a human, then I am being rude by not liking to look like one.

[ There, they can be rude buddies. ]

.. I haven't met human.... [ ... he forgot the word. ]

... little humans. Who are not just... short humans.

Kids?

[asteffiel you have charmed this little boy]

Yes! Those.

[ Well, he was supposed to use charm as his way to talk himself out of problems- ]

We call the newly woken up Sylvari saplings, so... little flesh races would be fleshlings. But everyone makes funny faces when I say that.

... It kind of sounds like they're monsters in a horror story.

[ He has to think on that. ]

... Attack of Fleshlings, who chew on everything knee height?

[ He makes little hands claws and mimes gnawing on things. ]

[SNORT. LAUGHTER]

[ he made him laugh. Clearly this is a success of some sort, and maybe he ought to try to continue this. Hmmmn. ]

... and drool everywhere. With wailing at odd hours of the night?

[more laughter]

I have to draw comics of this.

... Comics?

[ He doesn't know those. ]

It's art. Pictures that tell a story.

Ooooh.

[ There's probably another sylvari who would love to know this. Kahedins? Yes that one. ]

Can I see if you do?

Absolutely. Can you read?

[is that something the augment fixes or does it just teach you to do things...??? now hiro's wondering.]

Yes? Mother makes sure we know how to read before we wake up.

[ He's just terrible at spelling. Some of these letters look like other ones and it confuses him. ]

... unless this isn't the same letters.

As long as you can text with the communicator, you should be fine.

Oh, yes. I can do that.

[ With horrible spelling and many typos because how do keys, but he can- ]

Then you'll be the first person I show.

[yeahhh]

I'm gonna go back to the Bishop and take stock of what I'm missing for the compost bin.

Okay!

I will start organizing my plants.

[ And listing what all he found. ]

Alright, buddy. I'll be in touch.

[and he waves, turning to leave.]
