Uh, hello everyone. It looks like we might be here a little longer than we hoped for, unless anyone has figured out how to leave yet.

[ He tries not to sound pesimistic about it. ]

I mean, whoever brought us here threw us a really dull mixer and hasn't made themselves known, so a lot of people are probably looking for places to stay and figuring all that stuff out.

No one's asking my opinion, but I would encourage everyone not to live somewhere too secluded. We don't know what might happen, and if you need help, it may be difficult to reach you. I know most of us probably don't know anything about each other, and it can be difficult to trust strangers, but putting city blocks between you and your nearest neighbor won't make things easier.

That's all.

And give up my beautiful forest view from the penthouse? Never.

What are you expecting to happen?
Us to each other? (￣□￣ )

[100more]

I'm not sure I understand, but it's only a suggestion. If you can handle being on your own, then do enjoy the view.

So far we've gotten a small carnival and a school dance. Scary! To the socially anxious, I suppose.
Since food is aplenty and no one's going low on resources, I don't think polite society is going to devolve soon.

[100more]

I just don't believe we were all brought here to eat cake and dance with each other. Nice as that might be, except we can't leave.

[gurge]

Working on a praxis that we're all here by someone or something's intention...
Which I suppose is hard to deny between the kiosks and the little "survey" we got on our brand new shiny phones.

[100more]

Right. That survey didn't make any sense to me, though.

[gurge]

Nor I, but it did ask me a question about my children.
A lucky strike, or suggests preexisting knowledge of those who arrive.

[100more]

[His children? He knows a question like that would not have set well with him.]

Mine asked me about farm animals.

[Perhaps it was meant to be more than that, but Hob doesn't see what for.]

[gurge]

[ ... ]

Are... are you a farmer?

[100more]

No. I might know a few things but I'm no farmer.
