Hello, I am Era.

I have noticed a number of new arrivals as of late. Though I have not been here long compared to some others please feel free to contact me if you need assistance with anything, however big or small it may be. I cannot guarantee I will be able to help, but I will try if at all possible.


On an unrelated note:

I am looking to introduce a friend to movies and am seeking recommendations. All genres are welcome, though I will be avoiding any regarding possessions.

Thank you.

Hanzo,

Do you have a movie playing device I could borrow for an evening?

That's charitable of you. Singin' in the Rain is a good, if self-referential, work.

[astralera]

He has introduced me to many things. It seems only fair to return the favour now that I'm able.

A musical?

Re: text

[youfool]

Yes, about a musical. And a romantic comedy, too. Ought to have something for everyone.

[Hanzo will love it, he's sure.]

[astralera]

I believe Thancred might enjoy romantic comedy. Is it at all satirical?

[youfool]

Oh, no; as sincere as any film about actors could be. If you're not familiar of technological advancement or "talkies" the plot may be hard to follow, but it has first-rate tap-dancing. Considered by some to be the greatest musical of all time.

[astralera]

I am familiar with technology at this point, even if I am not familiar with the names for it all. I do not know what you mean by "talkies".

[ tap dancing? she hasn't heard of this before. obviously now she needs to watch this movie. ]

[youfool]

[He'd done a re-enactment with someone else's body at one point, so he'd agree with her there.]

It involves technology older than now. "Talkies" refers to a then-novel development of audio in film, rather than the silent pictures the characters had grown so familiar with, and had to grow out of. The transition between mediums forms the crux of the drama.

[astralera]

That sounds interesting. Thank you for elaborating.

The Muppets
Lion King

Anything Disney - actually. But might want to avoid The Little Mermaid.

[astralera]

The Little Mermaid involves possession? Disney makes children's movies, does it not?

Re: text;

[borntolove]

Yes, to both.

[astralera]

An odd choice. Did they at least delve in to how dangerous such a thing is?

[borntolove]

I'd say so.

[astralera]

I suppose that is a small consolation.

I have just recently come to know movies!! They are excellent! I do not have any recommendations, though, since I just got started with them.

Which ones are your favorites?!

text;

[astralera]

My husband and I quite enjoyed those of the high fantasy genre, such as the Lord of the Rings and the Hobbit trilogies. It was fun to watch a battle scene and analyze how we would have fought it ourselves.

Have you a favourite thus far?

text;

[princeliers]

THAT SOUNDS FANTASTIC!! I would also love to watch those kinds of films! Isn't it amazing, watching something on screen that moves around? Technology here is excellent!

Ah, no, no favorites yet! I simply love anything that reminds me of my home, so mostly things that have to do with deep sea diving! Ha ha!

[astralera]

I like modern technology, though I try not to rely on it overmuch. Microwaves are wonderful though. You can buy little frozen meals in a box and cook them in a handful of minutes using one.

You might enjoy documentaries. I have watched a few about the oceans of Earth. There are so many fascinating creatures there.

What is your home like?

text; sry im hella slow rn

[princeliers]

Truly?! You must show me these frozen meals sometime!

Of Earth... that does sound fascinating!

My home of Hyrule is vast, with different sections to it all! I reside in Zora's Domain, where water is plentiful and us Zora are aquatic people!

text; no worries!

[astralera]

If you go to a grocery market they can be found in the section for frozen food. I have no icebox nor microwave to show you myself, though I would not be opposed to accompanying you if you wish.

It is very fascinating. I wish my home had such things, but thus far I have only encountered documentaries about the planet Earth.

There are two aquatic races of people in my home of Eorzea. They are the Sahagin and the Kojin, and are considered by many to be no more than beasts, thus their label as a Beast Tribe. I disagree with such labeling and befriended each of their respective non-aggressive tribes.

The Sahagin are physiologically lithe and more fish-like, with webbed appendages and fins. The Kojin are more bulky and turtle-like, with thickly scaled skin and shells, though their shells can be removed and cared for.

[Why is she asking him this. Era what.]

It depends on what part you mean.

Private

[astralera]

[ because you're her friend!! the only modern one she has ok ]

A device with which to play the little movie disks on a television.

[dragonsmark]

A disc player.

....



Yes I believe I have access to one. You can come by and pick it up if you like
