[text] Prospero FAQ

[theheirofbreath]

hey guys!
i've noticed that a lot of new people keep showing up and they don't always get the full rundown of things.
i know i didn't know about the whole full moon thing until i actually saw it happen.
so i wrote a faq.
you guys can distribute it however, and if there's anything you think i should add just let me know.
mr. edgeworth already had me add something about the hotel.
anyway, here it is!

Beat me to it. I think I like your wording better, though... here, hold on.

Feel free to cannibalize anything you wanna outta that: and, sorry about the timeline. I haven't had the free time to ask around for anyone who was around earlier than August to spill the beans.

[theheirofbreath]

Thanks! I'll go ahead and add the list of previous shadow events. I didn't know anything about most of those.

[devola]

Glad to be of help! I'll ask around anyway and tell you what's up -- I think I know a person or two... or three, who've been around longer than me. Safe to assume there were shadow shenanigans then, too.

...I suppose it's better than nothing.

[why is it blue. why is the punctuation and capitalization so off. this is bothering him so much...]

Re: [video]

[theheirofbreath]

That's what I figured. At least it'll save time when we have to explain things to newbies.

[enjoymyatelier]

Really, I'm baffled nobody seems to have thought of something like this beforehand.

[breatheinthefog]

...Earthicans.

[theheirofbreath]

hehehe
sorry, that was a joke.
it's a reference to a tv show.

[breatheinthefog]

I don't understand you.

Are you going to share this with everyone who comes in?

[madethemproud]

That's really helpful.

Re: Video

[theheirofbreath]

Thanks! I'm not too good at writing FAQs, but I tried to include everything I could think of.

It's pretty good for people like me who don't really know what's going on.

Nice one! Saves me a hell of a lot of time trying to explain exactly what goes on in this place.

Re: text.

[theheirofbreath]

thanks!
that was the idea.

[caliberill]

You must have a lot of free time to do something like this, how long did it take?

[cullscuttlefish]

)(opy shit, Jo)(n, t)(at is AW--ESOM--E! I t)(ink it will reely )(elp new people w)(o get )(ere. 38)

[theheirofbreath]

thanks feferi!
hey, do you think you or maybe one of the other trolls would mind writing an expansion to the part for people who didn't come from earth?
i did my best there, but i think it would be better explained by someone who knew what it was like.

[cullscuttlefish]

)(mm, okay!

[She stops responding for a few minutes, thinking of what to say and getting it in word form.]

)(ere goes! I left out my quirk so everyone knows I'm being searious.

2a, with extra input!

I'm sure that a lot of people will get confused when suddenly the person they're friends with, or going out to fight Shadows with, suddenly turn into grey people with horns or something! Don't worry. They're still the same person you know. It's just that Prospero hides their true forms until the Dark Hour. Nobody's turned into a Shadow or anything like that. You're just seeing what they look like back home!

They'll go back to being pink and soft and squishy once it's over. I know that it is kind of a shock, but it's the way it is. Nobody knows why it happens or what can be done to reverse it so people can look like their 'real' selves all the time.

And for people from another planet besides Earth: please don't fly off the handle too badly. It's a shock to you, being pink and squishy and decidedly not yourself, and we all get that! But don't suddenly decide the pink squishy humans are your lunch! Humans are friends, not food. Repeat that as often as you need to.

)(ow does t)(at sound?
