maybe i've missed this before or something but uh
is there a way to like GIVE chroma to someone else without all the other stuff?
like you know charity chroma?? donation demichroma??
whatever you wanna call it

just wondering cuz i always seem to have way more and i don't really *need* it for anything
if you know what i mean
spending it on pointless stuff aside from the usual isn't me

so i guess if you know the answer or just want chroma somehow hmu!

😊👌✌️

You could just deposit it into the banks... but are you talking about giving it to people as money, or as the chroma energy that's healing this land?

[burstmodes]

oh no i don't mean saving it
i mean that's good and all but i figure it'll do more if it's in someone else's hands

i wanna give it away however
doesn't matter which way

[menphina]

Sounds like you've got more than what you definitely needed.
Maybe I could take it off your hands for the orphans here.
They always need some donations to keep going.

You know...when you think about it, it really ought to be possible to do something like that, right? I mean if it's treated as currency and everything...

Hey, maybe you could start up a charity or something! You know, go around doing good deeds for people! I guess that wouldn't help for the chroma they needed to survive and everything, but I'm sure there's plenty of other stuff you could do.

Like, I know there's a lot of "hidden" costs at the cafe that I run — there's upkeep, and supplies, and stuff to take care of the cats, and making sure they're healthy and that they have their shots and stuff. The customers don't see all that because it happens behind the scenes, but the business still has to pay for it. I bet a lot of businesses are like that, too. Maybe that's a way you could help!

[burstmodes]

oh yeah i never really thought about that before
would they even let us do that???
i don't know how strict this place is with stuff like that since everyone needs to try helping out anyway
but you never know right?

i'm just not sure how to start something like that
never really tried building a charity or anything

[doreimi]

Well...maybe you could do a test run, and start small? Like only take requests below a certain value, so it's nothing big or extravagant to start with.

Then give people a way to make their requests anonymously, and ask them for all the information it'd take to help. So, like...

Okay, say for example it's me and my cafe. It'd be a big help if someone donated cat food for a couple of months! And let's assume that two months of cat food would be below whatever value limit you set.

So, somebody who wanted to help Beans! could send you an anonymous request and say, "this is for Beans! Cat Cafe, here's their address, here's what they need, and here's how much it should cost, or so". Then, you sort through the requests, pick however many you want, and then fulfill them! Kind of like a fairy godmother, or a genie granting wishes!

If you're talking about the currency, which I guess you are since you mentioned Demichroma, I just gave someone a bit of Chroma last week since they were new and didn't have any funds. The app should let you transfer it pretty easily, especially if you're close by to someone else.

You can't think of anything else to do with those funds, though? I mean, starting a charity isn't a half bad idea, though I think the people most in need of it are all locked up right now, and I doubt the Moon Knights will just let you transfer funds to them. Pisses me off.

i never really tried before so thanks for the heads up dude

and nah
i mean there's plenty of stuff i could buy that i wouldn't use probably
my bf likes buying random things that kinda just sit there

[ Is that best friend or boyfriend? The world will never know. ]

what they don't know won't hurt em right?

[burningfree]

[Wow. This guy isn't half bad already.]

I don't think it's that easy.

Not that I've ever been all that concerned about doing things the easy way, but I'm not sure how to keep them from 'not knowing.'

Either way I want to get down there, to make sure I'm helping the right people. Short of getting myself arrested, I'm running out of ideas.

[shesgotguts]

aww thats sweet of you to think of others like that! i dont know anything about giving it away or someone being able to hold onto it, but i think, if anyone needs it most, its the people that arrive here without a clue or chroma.

maybe it could be like a buddy system! heres some extra chroma and heres a new friend to help you through this! just an idea for your already great charity idea! 🥰

[burstmodes]

oh yeah
for some reason i forgot about that even though it hasn't been that long for me
so... nobody helps out the newbies?
i mean with giving em chroma and stuff??

i just think it'd be cool since some people aren't really into the whole idea behind it you know?

[ At least he'd had time to adapt somewhere else, but even then, casual touch and stuff like that hasn't ever been a problem for him. ]

[shesgotguts]

i mean, if you know people here its a little different. i got real lucky and i ran into a couple friends who were happy to help out, but i cant imagine how hard of a time id be having if i didnt. i just got here, and while everyone is friendly here, theyre not THAT friendly. you know?

like you said, not everyone is into the whole idea behind it. its sort of a game of chance that way.

You can put your worries to rest at last!
Your king has arrived to accept your donations.

You can deliver your generous offering to my temple where my servant will receive you.

[ He knows a cry for help when he sees one. ]

[burstmodes]

dude no
1) that's not the kind of thing i was talking about
and 2) i already have a king sorry

[ Not that he wants to out anyone, so that's as far as that goes. ]

if you have all that stuff you don't need more...

[subjugate]

Oh? I would like to meet this one who calls himself king in my land
and before my people.
If they are here, that is.

And shall I remind you that you were the one contemplating what to do with your excess amounts?
You seek my counsel then reject it. How bold.

[ Besides, he can never have enough to empower him. ]

[terribletwos]

how do you have more than you need/

[ Why is everyone else so much better at this than him? It really pisses him off more than it should. ]

[burstmodes]

well uh you know
it just kind of collects from moonlacing and stuff??

[ He's also kind of affectionate with certain people, so. ]

[terribletwos]

you must have a lot of people to help with that.

[herbmixing]

[ Wow, Prompto, brag about it... ]

You can. A friend transferred me a bunch through the app when I first got here, and I've given some to someone else. It's pretty easy.

Make sure you don't deplete yourself too much though!

[burstmodes]

okay that makes it a lot easier then
i think i've gotten some mixed messages so you know
never hurts to ask

don't worry about me though
i'm good!!

[herbmixing]

Yeah, I get that. I've been reading everything I can and I'm still not sure sometimes what's what.

You sure? I'm the same with not wasting money, but still...
