Good day, fellow hapless idiots caught up in this mess.
Some of you may know me. My name is Bai Mingyu for those who speak enough Chinese not to butcher it and Gabriel to those who don't. I'm 25, Canadian, from the year 2018, and a Taurus.
I understand we have some pressing financial concerns.
We also have organizational issues, of the 'we don't have any' variety. So I propose a census.
Please state your name, age, and whatever other information you feel pertinent such as place and time of origin and skills, and I will add you to a roster. You are welcome to opt out, but in that case I will promptly stop what little investment I have in your personhood to focus our collective resources on people with a willingness towards cooperation.
In other words, I'm not going to bother with you if you're going to be a pain in the ass.
You may find me in my quarters if you would like to look at the roster at any time. I consider it a matter of semi-public record, at least as the people in the roster are concerned.
Once I have a tally, I will update with an expected minimum contribution per party towards the 100,000 pieces necessary to take our next steps.
I believe we should also have a forum to share what we know of our situation thus far. Just to very briefly skim my own knowledge, I know few of us are from the same time or even same planet. I've met approximately one person who could place Canada on a map, which actually isn't that odd, the worse bit being no one will understand that joke. The census should help gather more of that data and we can decide how to proceed from there.
Thank you for your time.

Well.
His was already over. ]
It simply doesn't matter.
But yes, I think it may be necessary, at this point.
We are, sooner rather than later, going to have to operate as a single unit.
no subject
[ Yes, yes, he also hears your business request. ]
We can meet to pool funds and discuss logistics and the like then? Haltham wished to meet us all, so perhaps we could make an event of it.
no subject
But-
... oh yeah. The funds.]
Perhaps we should meet before we pool funds.
I understand some have had much better luck than others.
[ Read: He is completely fucking broke. ]
no subject
How diplomatic. [ Do you know how you can tell he loves you? He doesn't out you on the network, immediately, in front of everyone. ] Why don't you meet with me, privately, and we can discuss your concerns?
no subject
[ He's starting to sound grumpy for some reason anyway.
He almost lets it go and then says: ]
Should I wait until you are done with your first arrangement?
no subject
[ Mingyu actually glances around in his room, trying to figure out what Lee Chang is on about. He always has other arrangements, he's a hard working courtesan, but Lee Chang has known about that for some time.
...oh. Oh.
Oh. ]
Are you offering Archeval and I privacy for our transaction, kitten?
no subject
I'll wait. [ He says tightly, before shoving the crystal in his pocket. ]
