[ Having gained some confidence with this fancy tech over the week, Jaskier’s content enough to finally present his baby face to his adoring public, casual in his old school medieval shirt, unlaced to show part of his chest like the total hunk he believes himself to be. He begins with a soft throat clear, his voice carrying like a theatre performer, each word animated. ]

Greetings citizens of Maurtia Falls and beyond! It is I, Jaskier, your beloved bard, here to fill your undoubtedly mundane and murky lives with my brilliant light!

[ A perfect way to introduce himself is to neg everyone listening, right? ]

I seek heroes!

Yes, yes, each and every one of us has been granted such a title, but I require only the best, only the truly worthy among you to share my blessed company. In return, I promise authentic retellings of your adventures to all those that would listen. Stories to make a man weep, songs to get the crowds rejoicing, and poems so passionate that maidens will be lifting their petticoats at the mere mention of your name.

I will consider each applicant in a timely and fair manner, although a drink and some coin as cajolery wouldn’t go amiss.

[ A pause before he quickly admits: ] Bribes. I take bribes.

Thank you, and good day!

I'm not sure even my intelligence will fully aid me in grasping this strange world of the web, but I'll do my best.

You may encounter many people in various states of undress, but I believe you can handle that.

[ And of course there is so much worse to encounter out there. Though Loki settles with a mild warning. Gotta let the boy browse and explore himself. ]

[borntobebard]

Oh! Is this the porn I've been hearing about? I'm rather looking forward to delving into that side of the internet, although I've heard it can get a little dark in places, whatever that means.

[tricksterofasgard]

It more or less means that the mortals tend to have eccentric tastes and that you will come across things you may not have thought possible.

[borntobebard]

I can't wait, truly, I can't. I've seen near to the very depths of depravity, what humans can truly create and think up, if there's even more layers to it then they're worth exploring to the very bottom.

[tricksterofasgard]

[ Exploring, yes. Aren't we a kinky one... ]

I don't doubt you will enjoy your findings. And remember: There is always this network where you can share your thoughts with the rest of us. No doubt others are interested in your thoughts and evaluations.

[borntobebard]

Ah, keeping the fans updated on my thoughts, of course. I quite like this... what is it they call it? Social medium? ... Media? One can keep the public up to date with their thoughts and travels without delay, constant connection to those that want it, it's fascinating.

[tricksterofasgard]

As I can see you already have gathered some decent knowledge on how this realm works. You will be settled in no time. And I, for one, am looking forward to hearing of your experiences and thoughts.

[borntobebard]

[ He knows what's up. ]

I can send you hourly updates if you wish.

[tricksterofasgard]

A good idea. Though it would be even better if you set up a mailing list and added everyone from this network to it. That way no one misses out!

[borntobebard]

Perhaps someone as wise as yourself could aid me in setting up something like that in the future!

[tricksterofasgard]

Oh, I could certainly do that.

[ Some flattery goes a long way. Though Loki may just be out to abuse some ill-placed trust as usual. ]
