Who: Edward, Wander, anyone
When: Day 40, early afternoon
Where: coming from the 4th floor
What: TRIUMPHANT RETURN

[Look who's back from their nature exploration! Aside from both obviously being worn out and the bandage on Wander's leg, he and Edward seem to otherwise be unharmed.]

[There is a lot of nature stuck to Wander's sword, which he is kind of looking at now.]

Wander: Well, um, that was a good hunt.

Edward: It's too bad we don't have anything to show for it.

It would, but if the gods here are sincere, then it'd be a good idea to support this society building thing.

[coughinguplove]

I wasn't aware the gods were talking about trying to build a genuine society.

[ghostofthesparklelizards]

They want us to 'make a life here.' If we're going to have a whole group of people, that's eventually going to need to turn into a society, isn't it?

[coughinguplove]

Maybe so. I think I'd prefer to just mind my own business, look after me and my own.

[ghostofthesparklelizards]

There were other people like that.

But that could turn out bad. Feuds and stuff can happen and then how would it stop. And even after we find a way back home, there'll probably be people who still want to stay here if the gods aren't lying.

[coughinguplove]

I'm not going to try stopping anyone. I don't exactly live in a way that people trying to enforce some sort of rules will interfere with anything I'd be up to.

[ghostofthesparklelizards]

That's true.

I just want to help, since I can understand why people would prefer other worlds over their own.

[coughinguplove]

What will you be doing?

[ghostofthesparklelizards]

There's not much to do at the moment. The meeting was to start laying out some ideas. Maybe I'll help with the police force thing if that gets going, but I can be pretty bad about following those procedures...

[coughinguplove]

Sounds like Ed, at your age.

[ghostofthesparklelizards]

Well, they're just so rigid sometimes...

[coughinguplove]

If they're too rigid to handle you, that's they're problem.

[ghostofthesparklelizards]

You think so?

[coughinguplove]

They probably just aren't thinking enough.

[ghostofthesparklelizards]

...

Really?

[coughinguplove]

Would you prefer it if I went the other way?

[ghostofthesparklelizards]

No, but it wouldn't be surprising.

[coughinguplove]

I'll let you know when I think you've done something.

[ghostofthesparklelizards]

That sort of thing actually helps a lot.

[coughinguplove]

That's the general idea behind it.

[ghostofthesparklelizards]

[Nods.] There's a surprising amount of people who didn't do that for a while.

[coughinguplove]

They just don't understand.

[ghostofthesparklelizards]

It does seem pretty obvious. You should explain things so people learn.

[coughinguplove]

I've agreed to teach chemistry for Albinia.

[ghostofthesparklelizards]

You are?

Maybe I really SHOULD sign up for those classes then... [Had been wary because god teaching, but if Izumi is there...]
