Type: Video
Sender ID: forgeabettertomorrow | (Darin Altway)
To: Everyone
Subject: Darin needs some added perspective for his studies
Warnings: He's stupid
[Darin pulls back from the camera sitting at a drafting table in his home. However, instead of blueprints and sketches and diagrams, things you'd normally see on his drafting table and workstation, there's...an awful lot of textbooks. Darin reaches up and pulls the small pair of reading glasses from his face and pinches the bridge of his nose. No, he's not wearing them for show, he actually does wear reading glasses when he needs them.]
Okay, this is going to sound really really weird coming from me but...I guess I could use some help.
Does anyone understand how like...government works? Like, at all? Because it seems like a whole bunch of rules and guidelines that should be common sense until they aren't and the more I read, the more I feel like I've either understood this my entire life or I'm going crazy.
Plus? I never went to school so...anyone up for a spirited debate? Something? Anything? If I spend anymore time reading I think I might eat the next book.

[ It could be fun, couldn't it? ]
You could return with me and Emet-Selch to our star and we'll put in a good word for you!
no subject
I appreciate the offer, but there's a woman I already promised that I'd be going to her world. As nice as this Azem gig sounds, I think I'd much rather be with her.
no subject
Oh?~ My congratulations, then! To find your love on another star - that sounds really romantic, doesn't it? How did you meet her?
no subject
Astoundingly, she fished me out and the rest is history.
[That sounds fake but if Hythlodaeus can see souls the way Emet can, Darin happens to have two souls. One of which is practically overflowing with the power of what would be considered a Primal.]
