What • A chance to see the Head Admin "in-person". May be cranky. Caution advised.
When • August 5-11
Where • Lumina Cloth
Content Warnings • Possible PKing (with player permission)

[ Any time between August 5 to 11, you may see a figure clad in a long black cloak with the hood up to obscure his face, either standing at random spots of the city with his 5' 10" height or sitting on a bench, being slightly less menacing. He stands out in a certain way, because his presence alone might be a little unnerving. He resembles what you would expect out of a grim reaper sort of existence.

Yet, if you check his character information, you'll see his level, class, equipment, and a very "friendly" blurb. A level 100... Harvest Cleric? Surely, that shouldn't be too scary to deal with, right?

Anyway, here are your options:

I ► You're here to talk about that weird quest. He will reject any attempts at being given the quest item. May straight up PK you without hesitation either way.

II ► You want to fight him. Maybe you want to launch a surprise attack on him or just straight up ask for a PvP round for whatever reason. Lumina Cloth is pvp-enabled for the entire root town, after all.

III ► You're not sure how to approach him, but you can hear him mumbling about a potato...

IV ► You want to talk to him about something else.

Wildcard ► Hit him up in-person or his inbox with whatever you'd like! I do want to note that every single in-person interaction has the possibility of him trying to PK you because he's a cranky and violent guy--yes, even prompt 4. If you would prefer not to get PK'd, please let me know in the comment header in advance, so that I can avoid that while threading with you! You can put anything you want under wildcard, including dragging him to the amusement park, but will he agree? Fuck around to find out.

He's just here to vibe. There will be no plot-relevant things here. ]

They'll patent anything that exists to make money off it. Just look at Build-a-Bear. Though, this is mostly a concern because I wouldn't like my dog to eat something he's not supposed to.

[ Like the eyes attached onto the potatoes.

Anyway. ]

Did you have anything to report to me?

[ That's what he's getting out of this. ]

[conjecturecycle]

Am I supposed to be reporting stuff to you?

<[He hasn't been taking notes.]

[selfconcept]

You don't have to. You're free to handle things on your own.

[ It's just... ]

I thought you wanted to talk to me about work things.

[conjecturecycle]

I mean nothing much has happened besides when a bunch of other players tried to go to war with me over the word swag.

I just hadn't gotten a good sense of what you were like when we were just talking over email before launch, I guess.

[selfconcept]

[ People wanting to get to know him? For real? Hien's face remains constant though. ]

I see.

[ Does he? Well, he saw something. ]

I'm glad that you're making friends though.

[conjecturecycle]

[It's good to know your boss' personality! Makes it easier to get away with shit!!]

What the hell are you talking about?

[selfconcept]

I was in Lumina Cloth during the party.

[ But was he part of it? No. ]

It looked like you were getting along well with Mr. Misteaks.

[ So Pete wants to know more about his personality? He's about to know a lot more about it as that nonexpressive face suddenly has a smile, but it's not the soft and happy kind.

Definitely the teasing type, but with his getup looking like a grim reaper, maybe he even looks villainous. ]

So I thought you two were becoming good friends.

[conjecturecycle]

[WHY IS THIS GAME FULL OF PEOPLE READY TO BULLY HIM!!! THIS IS WHY HE PREFERS SINGLE PLAYER GAMES!!!!!!!!!!!!!]

Pretty sure that guy could get along well with anyone, he's basically a golden retriever. Don't read too much into it.

[selfconcept]

And? That doesn't deny anything I said. If he can get along with anyone, you're included. Make some friends. It'll make the job worth it.

[ That's enough teasing for Pete. Hien is feeling merciful right now. ]

Even if you don't think so, it'll make it less boring at the very least. I won't care if you go and enjoy yourself.

[conjecturecycle]

I ain't here to have fun and make friends, I'm here to get in on the ground floor of something that's gonna make a huge splash.

[IT'S ALL ABOUT THE BUSINESS, BABEY.]

[selfconcept]

Mm, neither am I.

[ But Hien does care about Pete's well-being to an extent despite being an asshole. ]

Should I ask them to give you a promotion?

[conjecturecycle]

[??? IS THIS GUY A JERK OR IS HE NICE? IS THIS A TRICK?]

Why would you do something like that?

[selfconcept]

Just in case this job isn't enough for you.

[ You want more work, Pete?? ]

[conjecturecycle]

[Ah, there it is.]

It's less the job itself and more the amount I'm getting paid.

[selfconcept]

Yeah, life's a bitch.

[ Because same. You think he's getting paid for all this overtime work??? ]

Just let me know when the kids are getting to be too much for you. I think I need to run some tests...

[conjecturecycle]

[Life sure is that.]

... What kinda tests?

[selfconcept]

PvP tests.

[ He's going to Kill. ]

Need to make sure everything is in working order before griefers cause too much trouble.

[conjecturecycle]

[Hm.]

You ain't gonna run any of your PvP tests on me, right.

[selfconcept]

[ Hm. How should he say this. ]

I don't want someone who works under me to be terrified to do their work whenever I'm around.

[ So, no. Pete is safe for the time being. ]

[conjecturecycle]

Well you're assuming a lot to say I'd be terrified about it.

[selfconcept]

I am, but given my track record, I think it's a safe assumption.

[ Time to test it. ]

Do you have your pain toggles off?

[conjecturecycle]

I'm really not invested in the idea of immersion enough to choose to feel pain in a video game.

[selfconcept]

Good. Continue being smart.

[ Good guy, Pete. Though with he doesn't have anything else to say, Hien will leave to test out some pvp bugs. ]

[conjecturecycle]

Will do. Uh, by the way... there ain't any way I could get some other punitive measures besides forum timeouts, is there?

[selfconcept]

Well, you rejected the promotion.

[ So. ]
