Hey, looking for some advice! I need to find something pink. Clothing or an accessory. I've got this really important meeting, and I'm supposed to wear pink. Except I'm really new to this place and I literally don't know where any of the shops are.

Not that I'm lost or anything. I've got an awesome sense of direction and all of that.

Anyway, uh, advice is totally wanted. Not the greatest at picking out clothes and stuff.

Oh, and is there a weapons vendor anywhere?

Thanks!

[Does he think that the texting is basically just Shinra's internal E-mail system? Totally. Is that why he's signing off like it's an e-mail? ABSOLUTELY. Poor guy hasn't done casual texting before.]

Oh! I found you again!

[gadaboutdetective]

[ He waited for a text to come back and then there it was! Progress! ]

I will take that as a yes. Hello, again. As you can see, as long as you can find a name on the list, you can contact them.

[legacy_blade]

Awesome. AWESOME MAN. This is so much better than calling too. Though I like calling.

[gadaboutdetective]

[ What an excitable fellow, if the response were anything to go by. But it’s nice to think he’d managed to help someone new around here, at least somewhat. ]

I was glad to help, and I can see how it has its advantages over calling when one needs to multitask while figuring new devices out.

[legacy_blade]

Yeah, I need to figure this out too. Damn, I'm bad at this. I just used to check, like, seventy e-mails at once and then got back to work.

[gadaboutdetective]

You’ll get better with practice, I’m sure. I did, at least, and things like this or computers for emails don’t even exist where I’m from.

[ Not that he ever got used to computers in the first place. The laptop Enis had given him at the Sphere was probably still a very dead paperweight at the bottom of the ocean to this day. ]

[legacy_blade]

Oh man, it didn't? Guess you're more, like country folk, like me?

[gadaboutdetective]

Ah, well actually I’m from a city. But I believe compared to modern cities that many people around here are accustomed to, I suppose some would say that would be a closer comparison. I’m from a time before computers and cellphones, to explain it.

[legacy_blade]

Oh. Huh. I guess in some places in my world I'm from before it too. Most poor regions like my home town, we don't have them at all.

[gadaboutdetective]

That sounds similar for a few kinds of places I've heard about from others as well during my time in these kinds of worlds. I’ve found that there are people from a wide variety of places and time gathered here.

[legacy_blade]

Huh, across time too? Weird.

[gadaboutdetective]

Yes, I suppose you could say that about it. Makes for some confusion now and again, but everyone does help each other out.

[legacy_blade]

Do they? That's great. Sounds like back home.

[gadaboutdetective]

It is quite nice, so I'm sure you'll meet a lot of people happy to help if you get turned around in your search.

[legacy_blade]

Yeah, I bet I will. People here seem pretty friendly.

[gadaboutdetective]

They are. I am unsure if it’s the kind of people that are drawn into this world or if it’s because we’re all in the same situation, but everyone does try to help out in their own way. Especially with people who’ve only just arrived.

[legacy_blade]

Wow, that's really cool. I like it when people are like that.

[gadaboutdetective]

I believe I’m of a similar mind on the matter. Was there anything else I could offer assistance with before you go looking for the tailor shop?

[legacy_blade]

Nah. I’ll figure it out from here. Thanks for everything, though.

[gadaboutdetective]

You’re quite welcome, I’m always happy to help. Good luck with getting settled in and meeting with your friend.

[ and with that, Llewellyn tucks his phone away. ]

[legacy_blade]

Will do man. I’ll try and meet you in person sometime too. I owe you for the help!
