[ The video comes on and it appears to be neatly propped up on a desk. He's spinning a pen between his fingers. It's clear he's sitting at a desk, given by how much you can see of him. He's never posted to the network before. ]

A couple of you may know this, but I am a manga-ka at home, and obtained a physical copy my series about a month ago. Not long ago, I did get a publisher and I'm able to get additional prints of it so that I do not have to lend out my only copy.

[ But that is only partially the point of this post. ]

I'm in the process of developing a new series. There's only so much to work with within my own experiences. I've drawn many pieces of scenery here, filled up sketchbooks with pictures of Prismals and Moonblessed alike.

[ He sets his pen down on his desk, and stops playing with it. ]

So that's where I come to you. I'd like to hear stories about your life prior to here. Whether that is an interesting story or fact about you or the world you come from.

[ Oh, yeah. ]

And, one more thing. I guess, since I'm feeling generous. If anyone would like to see if I drew them - just let me know. I'd recommend posting a video. I draw what I like so there's no guarantees, but it's possible.


[ ooc; i'm happy to have had him draw p. much anyone who would be spending regular time at the park, especially if they sit still for a few minutes when there since that's where he draws most his inspiration from! ;) ]

How very thoughtful of you to say that, though I can't debate it.

Well, I do think it’s worth keeping in mind. I think if you try to focus too much on others’ differences instead of seeking commonalities, you risk isolating yourself.

[penpoint]

Hm. I guess that's true. [ He is pretty isolated anyway. ] Though I have to say, the differences here are helping my work.

[baitless]

Ah, yes. I would imagine getting to experience an entirely different world firsthand would be a wealth of inspiration for someone writing fiction, wouldn’t it?

[penpoint]

It's why I'm here asking questions.

[baitless]

This network is very convenient, is it not? It’s incredibly easy to get many different perspectives on any questions you may have.

[penpoint]

It's only convenient if people are willing to share.

[baitless]

I wish you luck with that, then. Though... I do not think that a lack of information will be an issue for you, given that some people seem willing to share too much...

[penpoint]

Thank you. And yes, it's worked so far.
