what's the most useful skill, ability, or power you have, and what does it do?
asking for bookmarking reasons. 💖

[ back home, he'd kept his own abilities under wraps, but considering the situation here encourages collaboration and cooperation, well.. this much is probably fine. ]

related: are there any useful items you have from home, or would like to receive from home?

just because i'm nosy: what about weird or useless items you've received?
i once received a story called one who showed contempt for a streamer for beating up a dokkaebi.
it never came in handy again, unfortunately. 😒

you're telling me you've never had a novel that you loved and you thought the author poured their heart and soul into?

[rikugan]

no

[legere]

that's a shame. 😔

[rikugan]

eh not rly
novels are ok
but they arent exactly excitin

[legere]

[ heresy.




but it's fine. most people don't love reading quite like dokja does. ]

what do you find exciting, then?

[rikugan]

fightin
eatin sweets

[...]

actually not much

[legere]

eating being exciting.. that's a mood.

so if not much excites you and you know that, do you really need to seek out excitement?

[rikugan]

obviously

i dont want to be bored to death

[legere]

lol i suppose not.

[ can't relate tho tbh. he'll gladly take being bored here for a while. ]

would you say you're the protagonist, then?

[rikugan]

you arent settin me up for some cringey spiel bout how were all the protags of our own stories are you

[legere]

no, i usually leave the speeches these days to the protagonist from my world.

[rikugan]

LOL
whos the protag of your world?

[legere]

he's not here, which is probably for the best. [ .. even though he really misses him. ]
he's a regressor.

[rikugan]

what about you?

[legere]

i'm just a reader.
i'm a pretty good reader, though.

[rikugan]

if youre the reader how can you be from the same world as the protag?

[legere]

that's a pretty long story.
and you don't seem to like books.

[rikugan]

how complicated is it to say that you got sucked into a book

[legere]

who says i did?

[rikugan]

logic
but sure
we can say that aint the case

[legere]

i wouldn't say there's anything particularly logical about it.

[rikugan]

is it any less logical than all of us endin up here?

[legere]

considerably less so.
i think. i'm still learning about this place.

[rikugan]

well since you like readin so much you can learn as much as you want about this place in the library

[legere]

well, you know how it is.. i don't really like my fiction labeled 'history'.

[ lol like the library isn't full of propaganda to make them more compliant. ]

anyway, there's nothing like first-hand experience, right?
