Hello. I am Alhaitham, scholar and Scribe of the Akademiya. I have been informed by my gracious and kind senior that this network is an excellent communication tool.

It has been brought to my attention that I am severely lacking in social interactions, and that it may be detrimental to my health to stay inside and read all day.

Despite the many flaws in my personality, I am very knowledgeable in a wide range of topics, and am a thorough partner in any academic debate. While my way of speaking is quite strangely awkward and disjointed for a man who studies words for a living, my only criteria for judgement is that you are doing your best for your educational background.

Kaveh will be hosting a small party to celebrate the acquisition of a new home. I look forward to exploring the joys of friendship there with you. If you have any further questions, please forward them to me or to my kind senior, Kaveh.


[A few hours later, this post is amended with the following:]

Disregard the contents of this post; Kaveh made it using my shellphone while I was not paying attention. The party that he mentioned above is also not happening.

[A second amendment, around half an hour later:]

Ignore Alhaitham!! The party will be happening!! I will be sending invites soon!!

[ooc note: despite this being written from Alhaitham's shellphone, Kaveh is the one who made the initial post. responses will come from either one of them depending on the time (before or after Alhaitham discovers what Kaveh has done), so do specify which time period your character is responding to!]

It's in Sumeru, and we're currently not.

It's fine, everything is very surreal here as it is. I wonder if this is what dreaming is like...I hadn't gotten used to that, either.

I heard that it was only recently that your Archon was released, right? That's a scary thought.

To know at there was someone who held her hostage and stealing dreams...

I can't imagine.

[...hm, weird, had the news really made it all the way to Fontaine? He supposes the steambird reporters really do work hard...]

Alhaitham and the Traveler know more about it than I do. I'm just glad she's free to do as she wishes now...god or human, no one should be trapped like that.

[personal profile] scooba 2024-02-25 01:21 pm (UTC)(link)
Is she doing better? I hope so.

Like you mentioned, nobody deserves to suffer a fate such as that. It makes me wonder what kind of things Archons have to go through....

I've never had the honor of meeting her, but I believe she is...Alhaitham worked with her directly, after they freed her, so he really does know her better.

The gods...must surely have their own troubles too. I do wonder about it...wisdom often starts as confusion. If that's true for her, I wonder if she's ever been truly happy.

I hope so.

I am curious. What have you heard about our Archon? I'm not sure how much Sumeru knows about her.

My mother lives in Fontaine, though I haven't gotten a letter from her in a while...Furina de Fontaine, who takes part in a great many plays at the Opera Epiclesse and attends all trials, correct?

[personal profile] scooba 2024-02-28 11:44 pm (UTC)(link)
Yes, that is correct.

...What do you think about our Archon?

[personal profile] empyrean_mirror 2024-03-01 06:45 pm (UTC)(link)
I...am afraid I don't think about her very often, I'm sorry. I've never met her, though I always thought it was nice that she meets with her people.

If it helps, I want to let you know that she is doing well. If you ever see her, I think she would appreciate it.

[personal profile] empyrean_mirror 2024-03-02 06:54 pm (UTC)(link)
That wouldn't be...presumptuous of me or anything?
scooba: (Treehouse)

[personal profile] scooba 2024-03-02 08:21 pm (UTC)(link)
What? No, it wouldn't.

I figured that she would be happy to know that others think highly of her?


[He would add 'still highly' but he'll keep it to himself. The last thing he wanted was for others to know about Furina's current situation when Kaveh might not know anything.]

Well, she's the Hydro Archon, isn't she?

[ahaha...ha.]
scooba: (Look Who's Inside Again)

[personal profile] scooba 2024-03-07 01:47 pm (UTC)(link)
...

Yes she is but it's still nice to treat her like that.


[.....Sure Jan, let's go with that.]

[personal profile] empyrean_mirror 2024-03-08 07:11 am (UTC)(link)
I wouldn't ever think of treating her cruelly. From what I understand, she's been an avid patron of the arts, and quite a talented performer...even without her being a God, she'd have my utmost respect.

I'm glad to hear it. But until then, I really hope that there comes a day when I meet your Archon too. Perhaps she might give me some wisdom on being more confident.
empyrean_mirror: (28)

[personal profile] empyrean_mirror 2024-03-09 05:14 am (UTC)(link)
I'm sure she would be happy to help. And all things considered...I'm sure she knows a lot about being brave.
scooba: (Look Who's Inside Again)

[personal profile] scooba 2024-03-09 02:06 pm (UTC)(link)
Has she said anything about that to you?
empyrean_mirror: (51)

[personal profile] empyrean_mirror 2024-03-09 02:57 pm (UTC)(link)
I haven't had the chance to meet her. Alhaitham worked with her for a while. From everything I've heard, she's very kind.
scooba: (Default)

I'll wrap this up and tag you on the TL lol

[personal profile] scooba 2024-03-09 04:53 pm (UTC)(link)
....

All I can hope is that one day, when I do meet her, she can give me some guidance. And I hope that she does the same for Sumeru too...
