Hi everyone!! Our name is Sparrow Freling and we're new to Enodia! We haven't met many of you yet but we're looking forward to it. We'll be starting with the Explorers and Research tomorrow. Our background is in photography and we've been working with IRIS to document emerging Riftlands the last year and some, so we're not unfamiliar with all that.

Even if we've never met any giant moles.

Also! We checked around the Rec Center and the gym but couldn't find anything about pick up sports. If we set it up, would anyone be down? We aren't picky! Whatever you folks are into, we'll learn it!

[Evan]

We hope this isn't rude to ask, but do you eat?

[......]

[Rory]

Should we talk? Hypatia told me we'll be working together and we

[Lou]

Could we ask you something?

Comments

[sparrowfreling]

Good to know! [...] But do you want us there?

[coulee]

[...] does hell on my hammies though.

[sparrowfreling]

[...] Important to look out for the hammies!

[coulee]

yeah. they do good work.

[...]

[sparrow]
i lied to you and seeing as we're gonna work together, it might like [...] matter.

Rory

[sparrowfreling]

[...] Lied to us?

Sparrow/Rory

[coulee]

wait when i say you it's meant to be like royal you but should i say y'all or something instead

Sparrow/Rory

[sparrowfreling]

We were asking about the lying part. [...] But we appreciate the consideration! 'You' is fine.

Sparrow/Rory

[coulee]

ok i just wanted to check before i kept going.

and yeah i lied

Sparrow/Rory

[sparrowfreling]

[...] About what?

Sparrow/Rory

[coulee]

power stuff.

Sparrow/Rory

[sparrowfreling]

You have other Why w [......] You didn't owe us every detail about your powers, Rory. You still don't.

Sparrow/Rory

[coulee]

i know but if shit goes down in the field you're either gonna be like "oh no this person over here's real fucked over, too bad we ain't got nobody to heal em up, i guess they're toast" or "sorry rory what the fuck was that and where'd it come from cause that's not what you said you can do and i might be a lil freaked" and getting freaked's no good out there. so

Sparrow/Rory

[sparrowfreling]

[...] That's true. That wouldn't be good for anyone.

[...] How's it work?

Sparrow/Rory

[coulee]

✨magic✨

Sparrow/Rory

[coulee]

[.........] sorry. [...] i can make somebody feel better when they're injured or sick or whatever but to do it i've gotta make somebody else feel worse. so i don't do it much and definitely not like [...] after a night out or stupid botched snowboarding trick or anything

and i can do a cute neat shield thing on myself too but that's not so relevant right now


and sorry about the i stuff i'm gonna work on that. "WE guess they're toast" etc

Sparrow/Rory

[sparrowfreling]

All of it does sort of feels like magic.

[...] That sounds like it'd rarely be an easy call to make. We get why you wouldn't want everyone knowing and coming around asking and all. [...] Or offering. Maybe the offering'd be worse. [...] Thanks for telling us.

Nothing to be sorry about. We understand it's confusing. It just feels disingenuous to say anything else.

Sparrow/Rory

[coulee]

magic's just science we don't get yet - some dead author guy

both suck but yeah offering what i can do for me's definitely worse.

when you have thoughts now's it like a committee that has to decide or's it still the thoughts you'd've had before, just they're being said by way more voices now? or a third thing

Sparrow/Rory

[sparrowfreling]

Sounds about right!

[...] Does it come up a lot here?

[...] More like the second. But there aren't voices. When we're in multiple forms, we process and experience separately but it all comes together and we share it. Even when we're in one form, we process more than we could've before and we can feel ourselves pulling in different directions sometimes. Even when we're one, we're not one. But what we know and what we feel doesn't deviate. We're always in sync. [...] It's difficult to explain. Our doctors call it a 'hivemind'.

Sparrow/Rory

[coulee]

folks tried to take advantage of it more back when the station opened but i always had a pretty good resting bitch face so they cooled down after i turned em down enough times.

that's overwhelm [...] cool [...] as hell.

Sparrow/Rory

[sparrowfreling]

We hate to tell you this, but even your 'bitch face' is pretty endearing. [...] But we're glad they've backed off.

[...] You think so?

Sparrow/Rory

[coulee]

y'all fuck off i got such a mean lil scowl

sure. like sure, thinking about how it works almost gives me a migraine but if i give up on that it's back to cool.

Sparrow/Rory

[sparrowfreling]

We just can't picture it... Have you been practicing since we last saw you?

That's usually our approach! Smarter people than us can try to make sense of things. We'll just live them.

Sparrow/Rory

[coulee]

FINE it's more of a frown.

they're gonna try to make so much sense of you here.

Sparrow/Rory

[sparrowfreling]

You'll have to show us sometime.

[...] Does that usually work?

Sparrow/Rory

[coulee]

trying to get on my bad side this early?? or are you like [...] flirting. i can't tell bro[...]s

beats me.
