UWAAAAAAHHHHHHH!! Ow owwww-wowow! Tobi never wants to do that again!
((A few feathers kick up in the air as he squirms about.)) No fair! Tobi doesn’t know what’s going on. Somebody stole his coat and left him all alone. Wings are weird, too. Ohhh but this book is nice! Tobi hears lots of strange voices coming from inside of his book. It’s like it’s talking to me. ((he leans into the pages of the book.
It’s very quiet for a time, as if he’s experiencing the words inside the pages.))
HARROOOOOOO!!!! Teehee, what a funny book this is. Can people hear Tobi, also? Tobi should introduce himself!
Tobi is Tobi! Nice ta meetcha!

What does that mean anyway? You're the third or so person I've met that uses those add-on thingamajigs.
Re: action;

Oh, uh...y'know, the thing at the end of my name you just used! Norma-sun or...something. What's that thing mean?
Re: action;

Awww, you're a pretty nice guy, aren't you? C'mon, I said I'd take you to the Welcome Center, so I gotta make good on my word! I'll show you around the village, too.
Re: action;
((READY AND WILLING TO FOLLOW))
Does Norma-san know everything well?
action;
Me? Well, not everything, but I've been here close to a year now, so I guess I'm pretty familiar with a lot of the stuff in this place. The good aaand the bad...

((That moment of thinking lasts all of one second. He startles, as if slapped in the face with the very question he wanted to ask. Seriously, you think this guy might fall over with how animated he gets.))
AAIII!!! Tobi knows Tobi knows!! Ahhh.... Would Tobi see his friends from his home maybe possibly?
action;
Jeez, you're pretty squirmy, huh? Uh...as for your friends, I dunno. They could be here! You can always call 'em up on your journal - it's how we all communicate around here. If they are here, they'll be sure to see it sometime. There's also a way to call to them privately, but it's kiiinda complicated to get used to. I only got the hang of it from the get-go because no one but the people I private to can read the things I write. ...Well, except JJ, he can't read Relares.

[She stops walking, and pulls her journal out of her bag, opens it up, and begins to poke around inside.] It's basically like this, kinda. It'll give you a list of people you wanna include, or you can write in the name of whoever you wanna contact - then this thingamajig here is kinda like a lock or something. You can include whatever you want here to block out people who may wanna see it. The better the "lock", the better the filter. Y'get that?
Since me and my housemates are the only people who can read the language I use, mine are pretty solid.
Re: action;
((pulls out his journal and starts to write in it.))
U-uwaa! No peeking!
((STOPS and starts to scribble all secretly.))
Did Norma-san get that?
((she didn't; he's an asshole and filtered it away from her.))
action;
...Seriously, why's nothing there?]
Uh. I...I dunno. I don't see anything in here for me. Or even mentioning me. [Frown, and flipping the pages of her journal, just in case.]
Re: action;
((Writes in the journal again...))
Hᴇʟʟᴏ Nᴏʀᴍᴀ-sᴀɴ!!!!

HI, PUMPKIN! ♥
Re: action;
Ahhh this is so useful. Tobi will have to remember how to do this.
action;
There's a lotta other stuff in that thing, too. I know there's a really long guide thing that pretty much explains this place in a lot of detail. If you don't mind reading a bunch of stuff, it's definitely worth a look at. I think there's a couple maps in there, too...but the Welcome Center's got a bunch of those, too.
[Speaking of which, they better get a move on in actually getting there. Norma had stopped to show Tobi how to make a filter, but now that her mind's back on track, she takes his hand again and moves onward once more. Charge!]
Re: action;
Talk about asshole, right? Oh well.))
Ahhh, Tobi sees Tobi sees! ((thoughtful nodding.))
action;
Oh, well! 8D She smiles during the relatively short trip, and once there, finally releases Tobi's hand to sweep an arm over the big building of the welcome center.]
This is it! There's shops and stuff around here, too. And ontop of here, I think there's a place to eat and stuff - I've never really been there, though. You sure you're gonna be okay on your own, Pumpkin? [You're kinda twitchy and scatterbrained.]
Re: action;
Tank yuu, Norma-san. ((sudden accent? Tobi is all about Engrish.))
action;
[Aaaand off Norma bounces, waving her hand pleasantly.]
