Hello!
[ Enter: Sersi. Despite the whirlwind of events that she left home during, she's smiling brightly at the feed, particularly pleased with how clever she believes her user name is. She's no stranger to technology, and there's even some relief that these function much like cellphones did back home- she may or may not be a little addicted to them.
She pushes her hair from her face and waves with a waggle of her fingers. ]
Is it customary to introduce one's self here? I wasn't sure... [ She pauses and drops her hand with a shrug of her shoulder. ] I figured it couldn't hurt regardless.
I'm Sersi and I've only just recently found myself here... I've been spending most of my time over at the Archives, reading what I could.
[ And admiring the museum side while she was at it. It's mostly strange because back home, museums were more filled with memories of her life on Earth... but here, she feels as though she can enjoy it as a human would there. ]
But I think this question is best posed to the people who live here: what's your best advice for someone new?

[ She does mean that sincerely. Even if she wants to believe the best in people, she knows how easily things can go sideways. ]
I guess it's not something I'd like to believe can happen, but I shouldn't dismiss that it does. [ The whole... things "going batshit" or the darker side of human nature deal. ]
I appreciate your candor.

[ Telling a newbie it's amazing here, things are soo great...it's a lie. Like, sure, things are good for Chuck, but not all the damn time, that's for sure. ]

You're right. But some people might still have chosen to do just that. I appreciate that you didn't.
[ She might seem like sunshine and rainbows, but when you've been alive in your current consciousness for 7,000+ years? You've seen Some Things. ]

[ that would boggle his mind ]
I'm uh, Chuck by the way. Chuck Hansen.

I'm assuming you've been here for a while?
no subject
Yeah, since October-ish. Was in Deerington about a year before that. Kinda seen some shit, but there's definitely people who've been here longer.

[ ... Though honestly, she also wouldn't be surprised. Many stories had some root in the truth. ]

[ She hums a little at that. ]
I suppose there will never be an end to the surprises, at the very least.
