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!]

...Ranma they provide apartments or board on the ships.

[WHY ARE YOU SLEEPING OUTSIDE?!]

[catsgothistongue]

[...]

They do?

[WHAT'S THE ISSUE??]

[empyrean_mirror]

That--that should have been in the stuff they told you to begin with?!

[HE'S BEEN HOMELESS RANMA YOU DON'T HAVE TO LIVE LIKE THIS???]

[catsgothistongue]

See, I might've?

Sort of?

Possibly?

Kinda sorta ran off before I heard them finished?????

[BUDDY HE'S BEEN HOMELESS FOR MOST OF HIS LIFE, THIS ISN'T NEW TO HIM.]

[empyrean_mirror]

WHY

[catsgothistongue]

I WANTED TO GET MY CLOTHES BACK

[empyrean_mirror]

It is a miracle you even got your shellphone isn't it

[catsgothistongue]

[WOW]

Hey! I'm not that much of an idiot! What matters is I got it all under control eventually, and found my clothes after that annoying goose chase. And now I know that I don't need to sleep in trees.

[empyrean_mirror]

I am not calling you an idiot.

What I am calling you is impulsive and short-tempered. Please go get the keys to your room, wherever it may be.

[catsgothistongue]

My temper's fine, thank you very much. And now I'm not gonna cause you told me to.

[empyrean_mirror]

So you're going to keep sleeping outside, without a shower or a clean warm bed, to spite me, because I am...concerned about you?

Did I get that correct?

[catsgothistongue]

Yes. And what's there to be concerned about?

[empyrean_mirror]

Being homeless is pretty lonely and miserable, Ranma. You sound like you're used to it, but...

It's not something I wish for anyone.

[catsgothistongue]

[Sounds like a sore spot.]

Relax Kaveh, I've spent most of my life homeless and on the road. Granted it wasn't lonely cause I had Pop, but it's not that big a deal. But if you're going to be all huffy over nothing, I'll get the key.

[empyrean_mirror]

...Thank you.

['With his pops'. Well. Of course. A gift granted to those who didn't get their fathers killed.]

[catsgothistongue]

[kaveh are you okay?]

You're not welcome.

Anyway, anything to know about the party? Anything else I can help with, or need to bring or whatever?

[empyrean_mirror]

[hahahahaha no.]

snacks and drinks wouldn't go amiss. ...perhaps cups, also. If you bring me a receipt for it, I can reimburse you for anything you pick up.

[catsgothistongue]

[seek help please.]

I can do that. Anything in particular. And you don't gotta.

[empyrean_mirror]

[sounds like spend my entire life doing good deeds to make up for my guilt to meeeeee--]

Probably ciders? I suspect someone will get more than somewhat upset if I get drunk this time, so no wine this time.

And it's only fair I pay it back, isn't it?

[catsgothistongue]

[KAVEH NO]

This time?

[sassy loss teen is judging.]

But I can bring cider, yeah. And if you want to, I won't stop you.

[empyrean_mirror]

Before he tells you anything otherwise, I am a grown man in my 30s, and there's nothing wrong with going to a tavern now and then, alright?

But drinking's a horrible habit and you should never start.

[catsgothistongue]

Buddy that's what a lot of people say. But if you want to screw up your body with that junk, go for it.

Don't plan on starting. It tastes horrible from the times I've had it, don't get the big appeal over it.

[empyrean_mirror]

I'm not exactly trying to be an athlete, Ranma.

[catsgothistongue]

What's that gotta do with anything?

[empyrean_mirror]

You know what, don't worry about it.

Also, do me a favor: I know he is the most infuriating man in existence but please do not try to fight Alhaitham, no matter how muscular he is. He is going to make this a very hard. I'm sorry in advance.
