Hey there, islands. Happy new year and all that, if that even matters. I mean, the holidays don't seem to matter here but there's a calendar so...?

[There's a pause, and Lance clears his throat.]

Anyways, this isn't about that! Recently I put in a request with the good ol' Storyteller because I was reminded of something from back home and thought, with all the crazy things that happen here, something that's a little more chill and lowkey might be good?

It's this, uh, game? Called Monsters & Mana. It's a little hard to explain and it's super nerdy, but it's pretty fun! You roll dice and pretend to be a character and go on an adventure the Lore Master puts together for you.

I've got a lot of books for it and everything we'd need to play it, but I don't want to just keep it to myself? So if anyone wants to take a look at it or play it just hit me up!

See ya!

There are monsters? Is it a scary game?

[antepone]

[ is this space dnd ]

I'd love to play if you put together a group.

[want_to_belong]

Oh, is this like a video gameless RPG?

[forwearemany]

(Legion likes Lance, and they really really like games, so they're immediately interested in this announcement.)

We are interested in playing this game.

[prettypurpleparlor]

Monsters, you say?

[Muffet sounds amused.]

Well, I certainly have a personal interest in that.

[crosslaced]

You..... pretend to be what kind of character?

[he's not intrigued truly no HE HAS NO INTEREST IN LARPING TRULY NO]

[vagabone]

[Super nerdy, huh? What's so nerdy about some kind of improv acting... thing.]

Uhh, okay. What character would I be?

[littlemhigan]

...The Hells kind of game needs books te play?

[yallstupid]

Whoa, hold up. That there dice l ain’t twenty sided, is it?

Cuz if so, then that’d be Dungeons and Drapions in Alola, and I am super down to smash some nerds and make believe Pokémon. [LET HIM RELIVE THE GLORY DAYS OF HIS BARBARIAN CHARACTER.] Pretty sure they made a video game adaptation of it called Mystery Dungeon...hecking metal, yo. Pretty sure a bunch’a my old grunts cried at the end.

[galrarm]

You can definitely count me in.

[counterblows]

This is what you spent your stories on.

This.

[He's not surprised. Just disappointed.]

[deathfindsaway]

[Honestly, Kravitz ends up responding to this not because he's invested, but just because it's rare he finds something he has absolutely no idea about that has a ton of people chattering around. It's like pizza. He has to just-- know things.]

So what are the characters, then? Is it like writing a book?

[ladytakamaki]

[ look she's been through a lot, this sounds like a good way to wind down. ]

Count me in, but what character do you think I'd be? Seriously, I'm no good at this stuff.

[Voice]

[thermalwind]

Allura told me about this. uh, so, count me in? She made it sound pretty cool.
