Warnings: Shouldn't be any but will adjust if needed

[Someone has been busy today. The kitchen and Distillery has been noisy and bustling, a departure from the much more quiet days when the illness was spreading through the Bastion and survival was once more on the uncertain scale of things. Somewhere around the time that the night cycle begins, when the sky is more of an orange-ish glow fading in to blue and purple, a large spread of food has been set up near the Distillery with glass lanterns hanging overhead.

Just like any other time there has been a feast be it random or planned, there is a wide selection of food on the covered, decorated tables. There's even meat this time! And yes, Aoi, your doughnuts have been transferred from your trees to a platter on the table. There's even a section for Paar, complete with massive amounts of bbq'd mammoth meat! You can thank Colin for that.

There's really no announcement for the feast, but chances are if you're outside at any point today you'll see the progress towards the set up, or smell the delicious scents wafting over the Bastion. (There might even be music playing, if Colin finds a way to provide it!)

Either way, come dusk food will be ready and mingling will be had!]

(ooc: Standard mingle log right here. Throw your threads up, poke other people's threads, and eat all the food!)

[Yo.]

I am! I'm glad everyone else is, too.

[amnesiadragon]

[He nods.]

I didn't see you or Takane during the whole plague mess... you guys were okay, right?

[bedheadstyle]

Oh, we were! Starfury-san let us stay in his workshop so we wouldn't be exposed to it.

[amnesiadragon]

Oh, good. I'd never really seen sick people before, other than people with broken bones or something... or who breathed in Hex mist. So I stayed in the hospital and helped out, because I don't know anything about... what did he call it? Bacteria or something?

[bedheadstyle]

That's right. Most plagues are the result of bacteria. The human body has it's own defense system against most foreign things that might cause illness, but bacteria often gets in to a system undetected until it's already caused too much damage for the body to fight.

That's why anti-biotics have to be created to strengthen the body against illness and fight back against it!

[For as much of a dope as Haruka can be, he's actually pretty damn book smart. He rattles all of this off easily, pausing only to nibble a little more on the food he has piled on his plate.]

[amnesiadragon]

... Yeah, we just have healing spells and use plants and fish to create items to restore health.

[bedheadstyle]

Oh. ... that would make modern medicine confusing, wouldn't it?

[amnesiadragon]

Yeah. But... I'm doing my best to learn things! I'm just... not the best student.

[bedheadstyle]

That's okay! You just have to keep trying your best! You'll get it eventually.

[amnesiadragon]

Yeah, exactly!

[He grins and nods.]

I'll figure things out.

[bedheadstyle]

I'm sure you're a better student than you think you are, too.

[amnesiadragon]

Eheheh. I'll try! I've just... never had any lessons that aren't related to combat, or a little reading. At least not before here.

[bedheadstyle]

I had a teacher tell me once that no one ever stops learning, not really. So even if you haven't had proper lessons before you're still going to learn something new every day!

[amnesiadragon]

Yeah, exactly. And with how little time I've been around, there's still a lot of things I can learn!

[bedheadstyle]

How little time?

[amnesiadragon]

Only a few months before I got here.

[bedheadstyle]

A few months?

[But you look like a teenager]

[amnesiadragon]

Yeah.

[Behold the magic of JRPGs.]

[bedheadstyle]

How is that possible?

[Behold one very confused person.]

[amnesiadragon]

I was summoned. But my summoning went wrong - half of me showed up hundreds of years ago and half of me showed up a few months ago. But I don't remember what the other half of me did.

[bedheadstyle]

[Just.

Confused staring.]

[amnesiadragon]

I'm... not human.

[Tadaaaa?]

[bedheadstyle]

... oh.

[beat]

There's a lot of not-humans here, aren't there?

[amnesiadragon]

I guess? I think a lot of what are considered humans in my world aren't considered humans in most worlds.

[bedheadstyle]

Oh? Why is that?
