Video | welcome, hallo, buenos días, ohayō, etc, etc! | UN: Newt

[groupiedrifter]

[Newt comes shuffling into view on the screen, holding a cup of coffee in his hand with a bag of what seems to be Sour Patch Kids harrowingly hanging out from beneath the pinky finger of the very same hand. Disheveled but more than happy to provide his services after dragging himself out of bed, he taps his knuckle on the chalkboard beside him — one that used to be Hermann Gottlieb's, may he rest in peace (in a not dead way — may he rest in peace on a beach or something while wholly alive and thriving).]

Noticed an influx of new and kinda-new faces over the last few days or weeks or whatever.

So here's my handy dandy welcome board! Recently updated, to keep with the times.

Read it over and get a feel for how this place goes; I'm gonna finish off this coffee before I take any questions.

[As he takes the world's most obnoxious-sounding sip and burns his tongue, here's the board in question:]



[And then, after a bit of time, he turns the board over to the other side:]



[No worries, current crew, if you can't get one of those introduction papers in person!

Because he's attached them in file format, too.]

Immensely easier, I would think! Meet me in the training room in, oh, about half an hour?

[eyeronically]

sure, i'll see you there.

( he assumed he'd just show him over the network, but this is cool, too. might as well see it with his own eyes in person than via this weird thing. so, in half an hour's time, lillium will be waiting in the training room, likely ....actually using it for the intended purpose. )

text → action; that icon, i'm

[showing lillium what he can do over the network wouldn't have been a bad idea, but considering where sizhui was, it would've proved difficult to not disturb anyone else that might have been around. (not that he thinks it could harm someone or whatever, he's just too courteous for his own good.)

he arrives within the allotted time, dressed in those pristine white lan robes and holding his sword at his side, attention immediately drawn to where the other male is and what he's doing. as much as he'd rather not disturb him, they did have plans, so – albeit tentatively – he does approach from the side, one hand lifted in greeting, hoping he's seen easily and that he won't end up startling lillium when he speaks.]

Hi there.
