Who keeps the food here, or where is it? Grown or hunted?

Does everyone have gardens or is it just the one? Someone has mentioned a garden but they said the person had left.

[paladads]

They might have been referring to Ignis's garden, he kept a good crop of veg and was generous with it.
He was a great person.

Anyway, if you need something to eat I can probably help, my boyfriend is a hunter too.

[whitelotus]

What kind of vegetables are there?

Hunting is something this one can do, but thank you. It is just trying to make sure what is hunted is edible. Some of the creatures look different.

[paladads]

I'll pack up a bunch and you can decide if you like them or not, and give them to your friends if so. It's no trouble.
I'm Shiro, by the way.

We have a wolf who helps us, he's our pet. Don't worry about being supplied with meat through us, we can always hunt down more.
Do you have many people to feed?

[whitelotus]

That would be a big help, though this one has only just arrived so there isn't a lot of people to give them to. Though maybe my house share Kasen would like them? Maybe.

My name is Luo Binghe, nice to meet you.

A good pet then. The worry is more hunting something that belongs to someone else; that isn't the kind of argument this one wants here.

Not many, two at most. I want to cook for my teacher if he visits.

[paladads]

Nice to meet you, Luo. :)

Tell you what, if you show me how to cook a meal without burning it, I'll regularly drop some supplies off with you. How does that sound?

[whitelotus]

Luo Binghe is fine, though I don't know the symbols you put after it.

That sounds fair; do you like Congee? I don't have to eat a lot, but it is normally that which this one cooks.

[paladads]

Oh, well, I've shortened my name a lot for the people around here. It's Takashi Shirogane but like I said, Shiro's fine. I'll stick with Luo Binghe for you, if that's alright? Things are pretty plain on the forums.

Like okayu? Rice-based? That'd be great! :)

[whitelotus]

Shiro then.

I don't know okayu, but it is rice porridge with whatever tastes good at the time in it. Normally meat or vegetables, which is why this one was asking questions.

Those symbols are..?

[paladads]

It's okay to ask questions.

Symbols ... ? Oh! I thought you meant something else, maybe that you wanted an honorific attached.
Turn your head sideways and this is a smiley face :)
Now it's a sad one :( and you can make it cry :'(
Or if something is delicious :9 he licks his lips!

[whitelotus]

A happy face....?

[ And here's Binghe doing just that, tilting his head and squinting at the laptop. ]

People prefer to use those instead of just saying what they think? Then again if this one is honest, these "laptops" are a new thing. A lot of this is new.

When I make congee again I will send a message to your "hecks code".

[paladads]

Hex code, that's right. Thanks, Luo Binghe.

Can I come over when you make it to help out, as well as bringing the ingredients?

[whitelotus]

Of course.

And yes you can. It can take a few hours but that is faster than back home.

Where are you from, Shiro? You say weird things.

[paladads]

Do I? I'll try not to be too confusing.
I'm from Earth, I'm the captain of a starship called Atlas. I fly for a living.

[whitelotus]

Everyone does it, don't worry on changing things.

??? Atlas? Fly? Do you fly on a sword?

[ Cause in his world there are cultivators who fly on swords. Totally normal... ]

[paladads]

[ u wot m8 ]

Atlas is a ship that sails through the sky.

Do people fly on swords where you're from? Why???

[whitelotus]

[ It's such a silly place. ]

A ship? Sounds like a waste of sails. Why sail through the sky when you can sail on water?

They do, because that's what makes them unique. Not all people fly on swords, this humble one cannot, but I do know those who can. Does that not happen in your world?

[paladads]

[ This is wild, he's not even going to point out that Atlas has no sails. It won't get him far, he now suspects. ]

I'd rather sail through the stars than the sea.
It doesn't, it sounds amazing! What happens if there's a crash?

[whitelotus]

[ This is definitely shaping up to be one of those really weird talks. Binghe hasn't heard weird like this since Kaoru tried to explain miniskirts. ]

It does sound nice but that can be done on swords so this one isn't sure why a ship would be needed.

If there's a crash then whoever is responsible should own up!

[paladads]

[ Shiro feels about ten years old, asking his grandpa about weird Japanese legends. ]

Wouldn't someone get stabbed??

[whitelotus]

No, this one doesn't think they would. But then I don't know of a time when it's happen.

They would probably fall down and not survive the impact maybe.

[paladads]

That's really grim ...

And it doesn't happen if you're on a starship. ;)

[whitelotus]

Maybe, but then people should be more careful with where they're flying. If it helps, the ones who do have trained for a long time.

Starship.... And why doesn't it happen??

[paladads]

Well, a lot of people are involved with the running of a starship, and there's usually nothing for it to run into between the stars.

[whitelotus]

What about other starships?

It sounds like a lot of work. Is it worth it?
