 Right, so. Been here long enough that I guess I can stop hoping it's all a dream. Friggin' hate it, no amount of playing with bees all day is going to make it suck any less, but that's not the point. 

Point is, I'm Sera and right now I'm bored. So, I was thinkin'...you show your face and I'll draw you. Or how I see you, anyway.

[Giggling follows the offer. Sera's caricatures will without a doubt be pretty ridiculous, and most likely vulgar in the case of adult characters. Beware of exaggerated dicks and boobs. Unless you indicate that you're not cool with that.]

And tell me what you do for fun around here while you're at it. Might as well talk while do it, yeah?

[The face that appears on the screen is obviously young... and utterly, unnaturally pale.]

Well, mostly I read for fun. Sometimes I play music, or try to work on new spells- very carefully, of course.

Re: Video

[wasnever]

Oh, joy, more mages!

[Said sarcastically. Someone's afraid of magic.]

And really, who made the rule that said all mages have to be book nerds? I know there are spells and shit in lots of 'em, but it's more than that for loads of you, innit?

[stealwithit]

Nice to meet you, Sera. I'm Kasumi and I'm amused at your offer.

--Also, sorry, but did you say play with bees? I'm pretty sure there's more fun animals to play with around here. Like puppies or kittens.

video

[wasnever]

It's my job. Sort of. I knew a nutty beekeeper and now I'm the beekeeper but less nutty. And they gave me bee powers.

[resipiscent]

You play with bees? [Oh, but she asked a question.] ... I... spar a lot, I guess. Read.

[wasnever]

I'm supposed to! And there are lots of great things you can do with bees.

[She chews on the end of her pencil, looking deep in thought.]

Sparring, though. Tell me about sparring. What kind?

video

[aggressiveapathy]

Finally. Someone not being the worst.

video

[wasnever]

Not sure what that means, but I try.

[And she looks down to begin DRAWING FURIOUSLY. Inspiration has struck.]

[selfpraise]

You're always welcome to join me and my books.

[Don't draw him, he knows it's going to be vulgar and inappropriate.]

[wasnever]

You're too late, already talked to a book nerd.

[TOO LATE SHE'S ALREADY STARTING.]

video;

[thephix]

You're an artist?

[She might be overestimating Sera's artistic skills.]

video;

[wasnever]

Only the finest. Renowned for my portrait work in my homeland.

[She most likely is.]

video

[fastballspeciaaaaal]

Baseball! I play so much baseball. And soccer. And football. And sometimes I play with animals too. Not bees though, I bet they'd be super hard to pet. [Cue attempting to pet an invisible bee with one finger.]

video

[wasnever]

Don't know what any of those games are, but trying to pet a bee's how you get stung.

voice;

[lackey]

[Some people are nice and accommodating to artists, some people are rude jerks who refuse to turn on their video.]

Bees.

[He doesn't comment on that further. Just bees.]

I party a lot. Locals throw some bitchin' parties. Bunch of good clubs around here, too. Way better than bees.

[Bees.]

voice;

[wasnever]

[Fine, don't get a work of art to cherish for the rest of your life then.]

Okay but consider this: a party...with bees.

Have to make sure it's a party full of people you don't like, though. Fantasized about doing that when I had to go the Winter Palace. All those prissy nobles would've deserved it.

[rockpun]

Go for it.

[Tara could use the distraction right now, mostly from the schoolwork she's ignoring in the cafe in Maurtia Falls she's currently crashing. at least it's not super busy. maybe the employees won't kick her out for doing network stuff in public again!]

I've been trying to hit up the arcades around here but everything is just a little bit different from when I left it. Video games changed, man.

[wasnever]

...Right. Those are like those movie things except even more like magic, yeah?

[Catching up on hundreds of years of technology is hard.]

video;

[whathawksdo]

Doesn't playing with bees hurt? I think it would hurt.

[ But maybe that's a personal problem. ]

I mostly wander around and find trouble, I suppose, though how fun that is varies. Oh, and there's the dogs. Lots of dogs to play with. Perhaps not as fun as bees, but certainly less stingy.

video;

[wasnever]

Not when you can control them.

[She is BEE GOD, Hawke.]

Where I come from everyone loves dogs, though.

video

[huntergames]

... honey.

video

[wasnever]

...Is that a request?

video

[glitchinthesystem]

Yeah, when I got here I thought I was hallucinating the whole thing and everyone was imaginary.

[ This lady is weird, Glitch thinks, but hey. Who's the teen to say what's weird or not? ]
Well, unoriginal considering two other people took that answer but I read. Not magical though. I have no idea how that shit works. But, beating the shit out of assholes is also a fun passing.

video

[wasnever]

"Not magic" and beating up arsewads are better than some of the replies I've gotten.

video

[rathercommon]

Hullo again, Sera.

[ Kitty smiles at her warmly. She likes Sera. She's so...genuine. ]

Have you discovered movies here yet? Films? I assume they haven't got those in your world.

video

[wasnever]

[She gets a ridiculously wide grin back.]

Right, yeah. Still getting used to that sort of thing. There's so much...stuff. Like, in general, not just the movies. Kind of overwhelming, yeah? My head hurts pretty often thinking about all of it.

video;

[cleptes]

[Okay, she's a little curious about what Sera would come up with for her.]

I drink, I socialise. Get laid. Test out my powers and see how far I can take them.

video;

[wasnever]

How often do you get it around here, anyway? The drinking part's never hard, of course.

video;

[lasthugs]

You draw portraits?

[This may or may not be the worst idea.]

video;

[wasnever]

Today I do, at least.

Just for a bit of fun.

[whitequeens]

Erm, well. ...all right, if you'd like.

[wasnever]

Oh, do I get to be the royal portrait artist now?

What do princesses do once they become like everyone else, anyway?

... action?

[nockpoint]

[ from out in the kitchen, sera can probably hear archer make a noise that's half laugh, half sigh, half undignified snort, and half complete and total disregard for fractions. ]

ACTION!!!

[wasnever]

[Yeah, she's just gonna yell from where she's sitting, because being reminded of his existence has given her an idea for a drawing.]

What's all that for, fussypants?

voice;

[sassguard]

I didn't think you could get bored. You seem like you know how to keep yourself entertained -- and from what I've heard, beekeeping's not the kind of job anyone could fall asleep on.

[ The giggling means nothing good, so he'll just... ignore that offer for now. ]

I take care of a hamster and spar in my offtime. Go on joyrides on my hoverbike. That kind of thing.

voice;

[wasnever]

Everyone gets bored sometimes. Even if you've got a lot of things you could be doing.

[Too bad she ALREADY KNOWS WHAT HE LOOKS LIKE...]

You have a hamster?

video

[airshow]

Playing with bees? That's a thing?

video

[wasnever]

It is when you get here and they tell you you're a beekeeper now.

[Oh, she has a very special idea in mind for James...]

video; comm ID is just "Spider-Man"

[shutterbugged]

So, just to clarify, you only communicate with bees, right? You aren't actually made of bees.

[ Spider-Man has had Bad Experiences, okay. He just wants to have it all up front.

(On the plus side, even if Sera is made of bees it's unlikely that she's also a Nazi.) ]

video;

[wasnever]

[WELL, she's going to get a good picture out of this one.]

Do I look like I'm made of bees? Don't really talk to them, actually, they just...do what I want. Can't tell me stories about all the crazy bug fucking they're doing or anything.

video

[grouchinleather]

[Here you go, Sera. One cowled face for your enjoyment.]

"Playing with bees"? That what you kids are calling it these days?

[As for the question about hobbies... Midnighter shrugs.]

I used to bash in people's skulls for fun, but I've been trying to cut back since I got here. [And he hates it.]

video

[wasnever]

You trying to be dirty with that? If so, I don't get it, but I appreciate it. [Small pause.] I--shit, I mean like, in a "that's funny" kind of way. Even if I don't get the joke? That's the kind of joke I like. Good effort. I like tits and not old men in funny clothes.

Why're you cutting back, though? 'S a good hobby.

Voice

[kanadian]

[ No way no how, anytime someone says they want to do something on this network, it always ends up with him being the butt of a joke. Sorry, Sera, you're only getting voice. ]

Well, if you're looking for fun things to do, the books aren't bad -- but really just running is better than nothing.

At least that way you get to see the sights while you're here, too.

Voice

[wasnever]

[Like this can save Kaidan from being the butt of a joke.]

Oh, yes...running. Very exciting. What's at the top of my priority list? Well, running around for no reason at all, of course...

video

[thinhammer]

Oh, you draw? [ In earnest, it's not the kind of drawing he's used to, but Naruto doesn't have an artistic bone in his body, so he can't really talk. ] I got a team-mate who draws a lot. You any good at it?

video

[wasnever]

Couldn't get paid to do it, but I don't think I'm bad. Just do it for a bit of fun, anyway.

video.

[glowsferatu]

Is it only bees, or have you considered branching out to the better insects?

[ moths, yo. ]

video.

[wasnever]

Bees can sting people I don't like.

And I don't have other bug powers. Just bees.

video

[wonk]

I don't do anything right now but I'm seriously considering starting a fight club called The Pit so I can tell people to meet me in the pit.

Also hi Sera I'm Roxy. Your ears are cute.

video

[wasnever]

Not quite a fan myself, but I'll take the compliment.

[Fuck being an elf etc.]

What kind of pit?
