[Hakkai hasn't yet learned the fancier tricks of working with this bulletin board -- it looks like some people have found a way to post moving images of themselves, with sound, or spice up simple text with color or different sizes of letters.

He's going to have to learn how to do all of that himself at some point, but since he'd rather get the information itself out before months have passed, he's perfectly content sticking with simple, unadorned text for now.]

Seeking students and teachers at Menrva's temple.

Students: Are you not finished with school? Is there a subject you want to know more about? All ages are welcome, including Gods and shinki.

Teachers: If you are an expert at any subject, we will connect you to students who want to learn what you know.

[Marketing is really not his strong point. That has all the information they'll need to know, though, doesn't it?

He throws in a little space and adds, at the end:]

Anyone who can teach us how to use these phones especially.

[...where "us" means, in fact, "me." Yes, that'll do.]



[ooc: open log for visitors to the school/teachers/students over here!]

I can probably help with phones, they don't seem too foreign to me.

[reformedsinner]

Lucky! [He squints at the account name for a moment.]

This is Slaine, right?

[ex_adept179]

Yes, it's me.

Sorry, I should've mentioned that.

Do the phones here seem strange to you?

[reformedsinner]

No no, it's all right! I just don't know how all of this works yet.

I don't think I've ever heard of a phone before.

I could be persuaded to help with the brick phones. Hell, I could teach a class on how to make them if you want. [She's kidding but... it's better than ballistics class, her other area of expertise.]

text;

[reformedsinner]

They don't look like bricks to me.

But if you can help with that, I can promise you at least one student!

[He must figure these things out. It's clearly an important part of dealing with this world.]

[roeh]

Dinosaurs then.

It looks like you figured out the basics at least. So what else are you looking for? I'm not interested if you're just looking for all the dirty sites that's what google is for.

[ex_adept179]

I suppose some places don't really have reliable access to phones...

But it should be easy to learn with practice.

[birdstheword]

hiii Hakkkkai-san~!
if you need still need help w/ the phone i dont mind!
i bet you could make some super pretty messages!!

btw school sounds great! im sure itll be even better with you and Elsa-san looking over everything. do your BEST~! (๑>v•́)و✧

[hackberrydragon]

These phones aren't too hard. They're pretty standard for my time.

[ Well, a little out of date but all the components are there. ]

If you wanted anyone to help teach anyone about how to use a computer, I'd like to offer my help there, too.

[It's funny, he understands the majority of those words, but only two out of four sentences wound up making sense to him. He'll just answer ... those two, then.]

I think I've figured out how to use this board but I don't know what else I can do with it. There seems to be quite a lot of information.

[... and after a few minutes, he has to defend his own reputation at least a little, and tacks on another message.]

There's no need to explain the "dirty sites."

[reformedsinner]

Hello, Hajime!

[Some people he doesn't need to ask the identity of at all.]

Elsa is teaching the sciences and I am covering classic literature and math. Shepard has offered to show me a few tricks with this phone, so perhaps we'll add a new class soon!

Are you interested in coming to school?

text;

[reformedsinner]

Your time? Isn't it the same time for all of us?

[He'll ask about the computers later, but that's too weird not to follow up.]

text; oh my god it's like a code

[reformedsinner]

What you have is probably a phone! I can't see it, so I'm not sure.

Are you all right?

[reformedsinner]

Yes, but it is faster to have someone show me a thing or two! After that I'm sure it'll go much better.

Have you been doing well? Getting along with your god?

[Oh Hakkai. Hopefully you're a fast learner.]

Ah pretty much everything in that case. Once you figure them it out you'll probably never need to leave your house again.

[konobakazaru]
