Greetings. As new arrivals are brought to this dimension around the same time each month, to my knowledge, there are a few topics that I'd like to raise.

1. The tourist center's suggestion box. I know of one submission thus far. Have other requests been made? If so, have you received a response? If not, I intend to compile and submit a number of suggestions in order to test it further. Suitable contributions would be appreciated, in writing or in person. Should you prefer the latter, you can usually find me at The Bookstore.

[ An image to point out the exact location on the map is included here. ]

2. The Bookstore itself welcomes your stories. In exchange, you would receive an item from its existing collection.

3. There was discussion of a variety of ways to meet like-minded individuals, both recently and last month, such as art or a story sharing club. Perhaps it would be beneficial to draw additional attention to these as newcomers arrive.

4. What measures are currently in place in response to the unexplained disappearances? I am assuming that most of us have the option of sharing our chosen living space with others.

5. A change in the rate at which resources are replenished was observed earlier this month. Have we confirmed since then that all locations are affected and identified to what extent the previous rate has changed?


( ooc: Hopefully none of this is stepping on any toes; I can adjust as needed. This is also open to action. )

I could but I just hope there would be enough. 11 people for a team would be kind of difficult.

[wordchain]

It's possible that others will speak up to express their interest in learning to play. Future groups of arrivals might also include soccer enthusiasts.

[whatsamada]

I hope so. If not, then I can try to do some other sport. I should always try to do something new, right?

[wordchain]

That would be an option, should you choose to expand your horizons. No doubt you'll find yourself with the time to do so.

[whatsamada]

What about you?

What are you planning on doing?

[wordchain]

[ This is a rather unexpected question, enough to give him pause. ]

In terms of hobbies?

[whatsamada]

Yes because I'm curious to see what you like to do.

[wordchain]

Yoga is my preferred form of exercise. I plan to attend the advertised story sharing and art club sessions as well.

[whatsamada]

Then if all else fails, I guess I can try to do the art or story sharing club.

But I have to admit, I never really tried any of that before.

[wordchain]

Neither have I. These clubs are open to anyone interested, however, whether experienced or inexperienced. They can be viewed as opportunities to learn new skills or meet people.

[whatsamada]

...

I guess I can give yoga a try. Although, I heard that you need a calm mind in order to do them.

[wordchain]

[ This is somewhat unexpected as well... But if "Koromaru" is genuinely considering yoga, Yesod won't withhold his perspective. ]

At the outset, your mind might not necessarily be calm. The process itself should enable you to achieve that outcome by the end.

[whatsamada]

...It sounds so much more simple with how you're describing it.

[wordchain]

If you decide to proceed with it in place of soccer for now, I can provide a demonstration.

[whatsamada]

Would you be willing to show me?

[wordchain]

Yes, I am extending that offer. You're free to accept it at your leisure or decline.

[whatsamada]

Then I accept. I wouldn't mind giving it a try whenever you're ready to.

[wordchain]

Where would you like to meet? Ideally, you would have a clean cushioned surface, such as a mat, and wear clothing that won't restrict your movements.

[whatsamada]

I guess whatever works best? Maybe an empty spot in the park somewhere?

[wordchain]

[ As they're arranging to meet in person, it might be helpful to know what to look for, and Yesod appears on the screen now. ]

That would be a suitable location. Assuming that you're requesting a demonstration today, I'll meet you in front of the entrance to the park.

[And now that Ken knows what Yseod looks like, he gave a firm nod to him.]

That sounds good to me, I'll see you then!

[ooc: You want to handwave it or...?]
