[Okay so technically they don't have phones in Ivore... let alone pillow phones. So at first he just kind of figures it's a regular pillow and since there's not much else for him to do here in a house made of pillows (seriously what the hell?) he starts using it as... well, a pillow. Which of course leads to the thing accidentally being turned on and... you can imagine what goes on from there. (Hint: lots of frustrated confusion, cursing at it, and attempting to break it open. He ends up accidentally recording himself a few times but it's nothing note worthy aside from the obvious fact he doesn't know what he's doing.)

And finally, success! First thing he's going to do? Complain.]

Whose idea of a sick joke was it to make an entire fucking district out of pillows? This place is so goddamn pink and fluffy it makes me want to puke. [tch. Luckily for him it would be hard to tell for anyone tuning in that he apparently made some kind of massive makeshift bed out of all of the pillows he found in his 'house'. If he's going to be miserable he might as well be comfy. And sleeping is one of his favorite hobbies.]

That Queenie's a real piece of work. Why the hell would anyone want to live in this dump? What do they even eat here? Pillows? [There's a joke there somewhere that he hadn't intended to make. No but seriously, he hasn't found any kind of food market or anything like that. It would help a lot if he got off his lazy ass though.]

So can anyone tell me where I can get a goddamn smoke around here? And where's the nearest whorehouse? I need another job.

Looks like just the place for you, Alice.

in your desperate rush to be first

[suckonit]

[JUST... WHAT. Stares at for a good long moment in complete disbelief, like he's just seen a ghost or something.]

Wh..what are you doing here--!?

[suckonit]

[And then he remembers he should be pissed off.]

FUCK OFF! What the hell is your problem? What, are you stalking me now!?

why are you dumb. deleting shit without warning, tsk tsk tsk.

[thankskitten]

In case you haven't noticed, you've posted to a public forum.
You're lucky I even took the time to comment.

And did you just arrive, or did it really take you that long to realize it wasn't just a pillow?

[trustsnone]

There is a brothel in Highcrest - the medieval-type district. I am currently...employed there, I suppose, is the right term, although there is no use for money here, so they aren't actually paying me.

[She shrugs.]

Still, it's something to keep one occupied.

[suckonit]

Lucky for me then, princess, I'm not in it for the money.

[Oh wait if you work there that means you're not a potential customer he doesn't have to call you 'princess'.]

So, Highcrest you said? They hirin'?

[trustsnone]

Well, they took me. [Is that a challenge? It might very well be.]

I doubt you'll have much trouble, though - we're just extra workers they don't have to pay. Free advertising, essentially.

[genitrix]

[Ignoring the complaining because hello talk, dark, and modded.]

I like your tattoos. And your piercings.

[suckonit]

[What's this? Compliments? You sure know your way around a Leo.]

Thanks, babe. I like your... [Uh? Wait. Squints at the screen. Is your skin grey? ... keep it smooth Axis, this is a chick you're talking to.] Are those horns?

[Smooth.]

[genitrix]

[Porrim laughs; his confusion is water off a duck's back.]

Mmhm. Problem?

video; fml random icon

[shippy]

[ ...Ah, this kind of commoner. Jiwoo, in his hat and "human" clothes, is just judging him. ]

You really couldn't be more subtle if you tried, hm?

[ Sarcasm from a bunny. ]

this is why I never use random icon!!

[suckonit]

[The fuck is that supposed to mean? He thinks he should feel insulted by it.]

You wanna say that to my face, twerp?

[shippy]

I just did. I was staring right at your face when I said it.

[ he's serious... ]

video whoops sorry;

[of_nirvana]

[Well, Ivalice didn't have any devices like this - or, at least, Telma didn't know of any of that sort of thing. (Maybe they have them beyond the Skymist.)

Which is why, when her chalkboard starts to talk and a face appears on it, her expression turns to surprise, then to a harshness. Best... not show her surprise, though.]
Have you not already looked?
[She asks. She's looking around Astralfield before figuring out what to do next, after all.

Perhaps her friends are just hiding. Tsk, if that Moogle was causing trouble, she wouldn't be happy.]

np! I keep editing and deleting comments on Rhys-mun lol

[suckonit]

[Axis mind process: Hot chick! Probably insulting him though. ... is that a horn? What the hell is with all the horned ladies around here? It's hot but is this a new fashion trend, what the hell women are weird.]

Yeah, I've looked. Kinda. This place is fucking huge. It's a pain in the ass to go and find it myself.

hahaha i am just spending too long on these tags too otl

[of_nirvana]

[She can't argue that - this place is rather large. Still... her ears twitch a little. If Axis were to look closely, he may notice a slight red hue to her horn. She's totally summoning Phoenix and using it to look around a bit while talking shush even if it can't fly why can't it fly.]
True. But as long as that Queen has got us under her grip...
[Tsk. The only kingdom for her was Ambervale. She's also running her finger along her chalkboard - absentmindedly.]
There's time.
[But...]
There are a lot of pillows though this... [pause. What would this be? Some sort of projection? Yes... that's what it must be.] What a sense of humour our captor must have.

video.

[inthemoon]

--You live in the pillow area? [ a pause, head tilting. ] Sandman would love it there, I think.

[ there's another moment of silence, but then he offers a bright smile. ]

I'm certain you could find cigarettes here. Astralfield, that is. Or in the more modern district, though I can't remember what it's called.

[suckonit]

[Tch.] Great, so I really did get the crappiest district. Damn it, I don't want to walk all the way to another district. What a pain in the ass....

[Huh. It's really odd, he feels calmer talking to this guy. Well give it time he'll find some way to be an ass to Manny.]

What kind of stupid name is "Sandman"? His folks must have hated him.

[inthemoon]

I could meet you halfway, I think.. I don't know this place the way I know Earth, but it can't be that difficult to find one's way.

[ .. famous last words.

it's ok axis manny will always be unfailingly polite. ]

Oh! Well, his name is actually 'Sanderson', but.. Sandman is a bit of a nickname, I suppose.

[video]

[smallskull]

[DAMMIT AXIS kids use these things. His post has attracted the attention of one young girl who looks to be no older than twelve.]

[...She doesn't seem fazed by the question at all, though.]

I haven't seen any in Lochwell or Orlea. Um... Or Astralfield, but things change around there a lot.

[She tells him this completely matter-of-factly.]

[suckonit]

[WHAT THE HELL ARE KIDS? Okay no he knows what kids are obviously, but to be fair he probably hasn't personally talked to one in years. .... so uh yeah he's not entirely sure how to react to some kid suddenly talking to him over pillow phone.]

... yeah, ok sure. Whatever you say midget. [He doesn't really put much stock into whatever a kid says.]

Isn't it your bed time yet?

[defaming]

[What a crass, common person. Still, Kristoph smiles, as falsely friendly as ever.]

I find it a rather absurd district myself. We've been given no explanation for it. I can only imagine that, if anyone, the monarchs are responsible.

Cigarettes are available in the shops in Orlea, I know. As for your other question, I believe there is at least one such an establishment in Highcrest, but there is no need for you to work. Everything you need will be provided.

[suckonit]

[Wow you just reek of uptight asshole.]

Well, that ain't a problem for me. I don't do it for the money. [Cocky grins.]

But I guess some uptight fancy-pants like you wouldn't get it.

[Video]

[goldandblue]

[Took him so long to figure out this damn this. But he's cool, he's got it now, totally got it. Just ignore how pale he looks right now. And those cuts and bruises on his face.]

That pillow district is fucking ridiculous. [Bonus points for this guy because they can agree on that. And he kind of reminds Rook of the guys he used to work with.]

There's a couple whorehouses in Highcrest. [Where he lives.] But you don't look like a whore. [It's a statement said with the tone of a question.]

[suckonit]

Glad someone agrees with me. [The more you agree with him the more he likes you.]

Heh... what, you think only men go to whorehouses? You know, there’s plenty’a lonely ladies willing to part with their husbands’ hard earned cash for someone to whisper sweet nothings in their ears. [100% NOT GAY (maybe a little bit) male whore right here.]
