oh yeah heads up
ive heard from certain people who committed this themselves and
apparently if you kill someone here
you get your memories wiped of the incident altogether
not sure why they'd go out of their way to do that here but they do this sort of thing where im from all the time so im very used to seeing it
probably can't say the same for other people from other worlds so you guys have to educate me on that

so uhh
im not saying you should or shouldn't kill altogether
im not your mom
but just keep that in mind the next time you got some kinda murderous urge or something
the reason why im anonymous right now is bc i don't wanna reveal who did that in the first place
it might lead to some awkward icebreakers on their part
also i wouldn't lie about something like this if anyone's wondering bc i got no time to waste on leading people on

but this is probably the worst thing any newcomer would wanna see, huh
whoops
well... welcome to this city, i guess

( ooc: feel free to threadjack and craft theories! kromer/@gripper will also be answering questions about things she knows as a victim as well. )

is it?
why is that?

[gradenine]

well when you live in a world where ordinary people can easily die
whether by being wrung dry by money-hungry corporations, some rando you pissed off in the street, or even your next-door neighbor who thinks you might have more cash on you
you kinda lose your faith in humanity a little

it's hard to look after others if you can't look after yourself first, yknow?

[mollymocks]

i mean i suspect people can easily die most places. i dont see why that means you should give up on trying to enjoy yourself.

[gradenine]

i mean ive been totally enjoying myself
in terms of hobbies, i mean
i cook, i drink, stuff like that

but in general, there's not much to enjoy here
it's been a boring month and a half
so in a way i kinda expected someone to snap at some point
and so here we are

[mollymocks]

ive only just arrived so i suppose that doesnt bode well.
but we make our own fun yeah?

[gradenine]

hell yeah we do
i still feel kinda bad for dropping this news onto the newcomers though
how about you treat yourself to a drink or something just to keep your mind off it for a while?

[mollymocks]

oh im not bothered.
better case scenario than i feared really

[gradenine]

this another day for you, then?

[mollymocks]

well everything else is a bit new.
this box is unexpected.

[gradenine]

uhh
what box...?

[mollymocks]

the box were sending messages on. clever thing.
nice to talk to.

[gradenine]

ohhh you mean phones
these ones are a little advanced for me coming in but they're kind of intuitive to use

guess you lived somewhere where tech isn't this advanced yet?

[mollymocks]

ive never seen anything like it so ill imagine so

[gradenine]

fair enough
this place seems to be a little advanced in terms of technology but im sure plenty of people can help you get up to speed
who knows, i might be able to give you a hand on the off chance we meet

[mollymocks]

ill hold you to that
unnamed friend.
