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.

Predicting their moves. Knowing when it's time to run. And knowing how to hide.
[ Most people wouldn't be proud of her tactics. But most people don't successfully survive over three hundred years. ]
Staying alive sounds simple to a lot of humans. I promise it isn't if you don't know what you're doing.
no subject
Yeah, uh, not liking to deal with monsters doesn't mean I've like... Never done it before.
[Sorry Cibo, he's just a little overly sensitive and starting to wonder if he gives off a 'lecture me on danger as if I've never left my house before' vibe.]
no subject
Oh. No, I didn't mean you specifically. It was generalized. Sorry about that. What I meant is that some people don't think they need it when they know almost nothing, which gets them into trouble that they don't understand how to handle.
But if you already have experience, then I'm sure some good practice would help keep our senses sharp.
no subject
Oh.
Um, yeah, that's... Yeah.
[Sorry, she's totally right.]
Have you um... Talked to Maketh about her guard patrol thing? Offering the sort of uh, training you're talking about is a good idea, and like... Maybe a joint sort of effort would work really well?
[The more cohesive they all are in being organized the better, probably.]
