Hello, this is Kaneki. [ he is always going to introduce himself and say who he is because he never did social media before. kaneki is awkward like that ] I hope everyone is alright after what happened.

I have been realizing that despite me coming from a version of Earth, my version is different. All Earths are very different from each other. Did your Earth have another sentient species besides humans? I wonder if that's an exception or the norm.


On an unrelated note, I had the idea of sharing stories. Since there are no written books in this place, we could sit down and tell each other stories we know, or even stories we make up. Like... a book club, but instead it's a story club.


There would be snacks, of course. I can bring and make coffee.

[ please do not think about it. ]

It is. It's very difficult, unfortunately.


But I suppose there are none here. Or in most places anyway.

got to be plenty out there that isn't here

where's the blue aliens and the ones with tentacle faces sci fi tells me there is?

private

[anthropophagite]

That's true.

Isn't it strange, then? That this place has so many humans.

private

[strongroots]

never thought about it hard before but yeah. could be there's more humans or something about this place prefers them

it's a human looking city. as far as i know

private

[anthropophagite]

That's true.
It makes me wonder if the people keeping us here might be human.

lot of people got theories. think i shared some with you? one i didn't was about the city itself being behind this

like the city's alive? getting into sci-fi book territory.

private

[anthropophagite]

I have heard some of those theories, yes.

What do you mean, alive?

private

[strongroots]

i don't know, i didn't really get it. just that the city itself brought us here?

i guess cause we don't see anyone restocking anything. or any other people at all

anyone can come up with crazy ideas

private

[anthropophagite]

I think I get what you mean.

Like a haunted house, but instead a haunted city.

[strongroots]

sure... but even haunted houses are haunted by something else first. unless there's a trope i don't know

[anthropophagite]

There are many tropes. Objects can be haunted in movies, and so can buildings, I suppose.

I never heard of a whole city though.
