Has anyone as of yet read anything of worth from the Lunar Scientia? Since the vine issue seemed to take up most of our precious time, I have only been able to thumb through a few things regarding the city and its culture. I would honestly take any suggestions.

Except for any contemporary fiction. I've lost all faith in any present literature after having to see with my own two eyes award-winning titles such as: "A Knot To Remember", "Much Ado About Yiffing", and "My Lover, the Sanguis with the Big Chest".

inquiring minds would like to know, have you found any 'contemporary' video?

Hey, do they have bigger books?

I'm not talking about the flimsy kinds.

[catchthis]

I'm gonna use it to cover my face so I can take a nap.

What? It's gotta be good for that much.

hey, some people probably like big chests ┐(￣ヮ￣)┌
i feel like that must've been a pretty specific section you were looking at, though...
do you like romance novels that much?

[Also, you know, ignoring the weirdness implied there other than the bit about big chests, because he feels like many people other than him are going to draw attention to that.]

all i've heard from the scientist people was that announcement they made during that whole vine thing though
maybe ask the locals? ( ｡･-･｡｀)

[vanum]

thanks kid

[vanum]

do ANY of them have pictures?

[songbird_slayer]

[BOY.]

So of course, you'll illuminate me on what should butter people's muffins, in your opinion?

I'm genuinely curious.

what’s inside the chest?

[takingchances]

I guess it's not really that odd for me either.

[Now it being real is strange. Client's minds could make up almost anything they wanted in a simulation, as long as it made sense to them.]

Oh? Too much gray hair already?

[It's a joke, honest. She can't see him after all.]

That works. I'd like it if eventually we could all compile what we find out into some rough sort of guide to this place. Once we understand what's going on here better, we can start looking for a way out of it.

[How does one specify exactly "which Earth?"]

Among others, works by Shakespeare, Charles Dickens, Lewis Carroll, and Nozaki Mado are present there. Are any of these familiar to you?

"Much Ado About Yiffing."

I have so many questions and I'm not sure I want to know the answers.

Did you read it?

[superbia]

You could say that.

[more like white, but apples and oranges. he just felt infinitely older than his 40+ years that he had actually been alive. and, you know, the whole doesn't do well around other people thing.]

Not a bad idea. Perhaps we should get a head start and compare notes, after you've visited the academy. Shall I leave the list of books in your inbox? Or do you prefer the tried and true method of pen and paper?

[wisdomprevails]

What in the world makes a sound like that? I just tried to say it aloud and it doesn't sound like anything I've ever heard before.

[oh no]

[superbia]

The folly of novels. Easy to get into, hard to master. And no, the knot was about as symbolic as any other juvenile form of "ever-lasting love".

With the added torture of having to read about animal genitalia.

[superbia]

They were right there. In the best-selling section.

[ARE YOU TRYING TO IMPLY HE WAS LOOKING FOR THIS SHIT]

[superbia]

Ah, yes. Though I'm not familiar with Nozaki Mado. And Shakespeare? Brain-dead poetry.

[superbia]

Perhaps. You COULD actually walk into a bookstore and see for yourself.

[superbia]

Though I know the mere thought of seeing a three-syllable word probably frightens you.

[nodus]

lol

At least it was informative, right?

[takingchances]

You can just send them to my inbox. I'll make a paper backup of the list and see if I can compile some notes from any of it.

Are there any topics in particular you're looking into? It might be best if we divide our efforts between specific topics as well if we're going to collaborate in the end.

[superbia]

[well vergil's just not that kinda guy for you engie. he'll die before he tells you about yiffing]

Har har. [ugh pUNS] Mostly about culture behind moons to these people. They're quite overt. [like you cant go into a fucking bathroom without seeing some kind of moon picture somewhere] Though it was suggested to me that we should be pooling our knowledge, not dithering it out piecemeal. And since it seems to be more than me and one other curious soul looking into Lunatia, I would have to agree.

I cannot believe this discussion is happening ICly.

[fractaljesus]

[Discussing the works of Nozaki Mado is a rabbit hole Vergil does not want to dive into, trust me on this.]

Nozaki Mado primarily writes speculative science-fiction.

I listed these authors as a basis for establishing the Earth in question.

[He has no opinion on the quality of the work, merely that he'd observed their presence within the library.

[superbia]

Perhaps. If you promise to never use the words "butter" "people" and "muffins" in conjunction ever again.
