So uh... Hey everyone. Again.
[He could probably get a better opening line, but whatever. Moving on.]
I know like, a bunch of people just arrived so... Welcome, I guess. We're still working on the newbie's guide to waking up in a cave-city run by gods, but until then like, if you have any questions I can try and help? Also uh, it's probably safe at this point and we're just being paranoid, but you may want to avoid eating any meat products you find here. For reasons.
[MOVING ON.]
Also uh, sort of related, but I was thinking that maybe before next month we should really... Plan some way to help out? I mean, people just sort of show up and half the time there's monsters too, and... Maybe some sort of organized thing for helping the new people not get like, eaten or whatever would be a good idea.
[This is not exactly his area of expertise, so if other people want to take charge on this he's more than happy to let them, but otherwise he'll try and figure something out. It really seems like something important to get established.]
In uh, a rare moment of good news though, the whole coffee thing worked out. So if you want coffee there's some at Delight's bar now, though you'll have to like... Be kind of patient with me and the others being possibly terrible baristas. Still kind of getting the hang of the whole thing.
[But surely coffee itself is well worth any less-than-practiced customer service; they're at least pretty good at making coffee, including somewhat elaborate drinks, and as far as Chris is aware they're all trying. That's what counts, right?
Right?]
I think that's about it, except for that like... If anyone's curious, the handheld games from the arena this month are just normal games. I thought maybe they'd be some sort of weird alien-versions of them, but I guess not; I took one apart and it was all the expected stuff inside it.
That said I'm totally betting I can beat anyone's high scores.

Yeah, well, fortunately that's not an expectation I have, so.
[It's not as snappy as the things that first come to mind, but even though his temper is more on edge these days than usual that's still not saying a whole lot. Still, there's a controlled edge to his tone that makes it clear he's purposefully avoiding being more scathing.]
no subject
Of course not. How long have you been here, dearheart?
no subject
I think it's six months now.

[Since there was some pretty awful stuff after that too, but the buried alive event was... Not fun.]
There were some pretty small things that happened before, but also like... This huge blizzard full of monsters, which kind of sucked.
[But a snowy hellscape populated by monsters was--oddly enough to think about--nothing new, so. Could've been worse.]
no subject
[She sounds, if anything, enthusiastic.]
If it even is a planet. Impossible to tell from down here, really.
no subject
[He's not enthusiastic, just kind of dryly unamused, but there is a faint glimmer of curiosity about the topic underneath it all.]
Pretty sure the snow was the gods' fault, though.
