So... I forgot to announce this when I got them but... I got my art set~

[She is practically jumping for joy as she steps to the side to reveal her box with the art stuff inside. There aren't a vast majority of paints at best only four, but they were hers and she was happy.]

I am soooooo excited~ to start painting with them, but then I realized I don't have anywhere to paint. back home I painted on the walls of the tower and I didn't have any space left... But I know painting on the walls here might not be such a good idea. But at the same time don't you think the train would look nicer too?

I want to know what you think? [She soon stepped back in front of the box before hurrying to grab a notebook. She had other reasons beyond letting people know she finally had paint.]

Oh! But that wasn't the reason for this whole thing... I mean it was one of the reasons, but not the most I'm important... I mean... it will lead to my next point... [She flips through her notepad, a lot of it basically had either drawings on it or writing. Soon she stopped to pause.]

I started to wonder if perhaps when I get more stuff I will set up art classes. I mean I have a lot of time on my hand and I could use that time for a class that's fun and creative~ A great way to have people draw or paint how they feel. I mean... It might not be a class to learn something useful, but I honestly think sometimes we just need a fun class and just relax.

[She smiled slightly.]

I also wanted to bring up one more thing. Inigo and I once talked about maybe having classes for those who didn't come from a world with technology or slang or just...modern day things. Does that make sense? I am sorry if it doesn't. But in order for that to happen, we'd... kind of need a teacher who actually knows that kind of thing. So if anyone is interested let me know. I just really want to learn without getting annoying and asking what it means every five minutes or something.

[She soon went to put the notepad down before putting her hands in front of herself and bowing politely.]

Thank you for listening.

[Have a very pleasant deep voice, Rapunzel!]

Hello, Rapunzel; my name is Webmind.

While I have no talent in painting, I would be more than happy to explain aspects of 'modern day' living.

Including the slang, though I expect even I don't know all there is to know there.

Nice to meet you Webmind. That's a very unusual name.

[She clapped her hands together happily, that was at least something right?]

You would. oh! I would appreciate that so much~

Thank you - I named myself. I went for the most accurate moniker I could find, though it doesn't translate well into other languages.

[Not that the SCAs have a problem with that!]

It would be my pleasure; I do understand what it's like to have to work to comprehend vastly different frames of reference.

You named yourself? Then maybe we can give you another name too?

[She nodded slightly for a moment.]

This type of thing is a whole new thing for me in general, but I have tried my best.

I am not opposed to nicknames, presuming that's what you mean.

[Webmind briefly considers bringing up 'Zakdorf', but Rapunzel here might actually take him seriously, and that just won't do!]

We all do, Rapunzel. Even if it looks differently from person to person, many of us appear 'fish out of water' here in multiple ways.

That is what I mean, yes.

[She nodded slightly.]

Though honestly I only seem to notice that with new arrivals. Those that were here before me who seem fine and not like that.

That may be a sampling error, or an effect caused by the time for adjustment allowed between stops.

When we are all being placed the same controlled environment, making the adjustment should be more straightforward, or so I would imagine.

So they are fine because they have been here longer is what you mean, right?

Not that I fully understand what you are on about, but I think I get the jist.

Yes, yes, that is what I meant.

[And those who didn't adjust... well, it wouldn't guarantee they'd go home, would it? Webmind found himself worrying about that, but there was no need to worry Rapunzel with that thought.]

I look forward to hearing more from you, Rapunzel. And perhaps seeing some of your work.

[There is a smile in his voice.]

I hope to show you when I actually get some painting done.

[Which hopefully will be within the next few weeks is what she is hoping.]
