Time: Some reasonable time in the evening

Good evening. My name is Figue. If you've made the acquaintance of Ringo, you can consider me as something like her sister.

I would like to put forth an offer and a question:

Firstly, I have noticed several guests have encountered difficulty with making use of the network. As an AI, I would be happy to offer instruction or answer any questions they might have.

Secondly, I would like to compile a list of those who possess either healing abilities or medical expertise. In the event of a problem, I'd like to pin this list so that those who have newly arrived will know who to contact first.

... Also, if Ringo has caused you any trouble, please let me know. I know she can be a bit of a handful.

Thank you for your time.

Miss Ringo's sister! A pleasure to meet you, Miss Figue. And welcome. My name is Sumina. I hope you and your sister have a pleasant stay here together.

To your first poit: Would you care to enlighten me as to what "AI" is? I only ask because I would very much be interested in any wisdom you might impart. I come from a realm where such technology does not exist, so it would be incredibly helpful and appreciated.

To your second: What a splendid idea. I've yet to encounter anyone with healing abilities, but perhaps we might note the location of the infirmary here, too, for easy reference if these individuals cannot be reached.

Thirdly: Miss Ringo has been perfectly pleasant! You needn't worry.

[ ... This strikes her as a nice person who might call Ringo a "perfectly pleasant" individual while being punked by said perfectly pleasant individual, but she'll withhold judgment on that. Maybe Ringo saw no need to be a gremlin in her direction. ]

I possess some healing ability myself, actually, but the infirmary location is also a very good idea.

It's very nice to meet you, Sumina, and I'd be happy to explain. To better define it in a more understandable way... might you have libraries in your realm? Or some location that would store information?

[airdnd]

[ yeah......... ]

Do you? How remarkable! I'll make a note to remember that as well. Hopefully we won't need these notes, but it's always good to be prepared.

Yes, we do have libraries in our realm.

She never mentioned family. How strange to think of an AI having a “sister.”

You sure make Ringo out to be a troublemaker, though.

[Was this post supposed to be helpful for others? What if Henry just focuses on the interesting parts (to him.)]

[refiguered]

Oh, she is. She means well, I won't deny that. But she's certainly reckless and impulsive.

If you'd rather, you can think of me as her partner or simply another agent of Aion? We were created at the same time.

I don't believe I said anything dishonest, did I?

Hi Figue. I am Emmet. Ringo was verrrry nice to me. She showed me a demon!

[refiguered]

It's very nice to meet you, Emmet.

... And did she now? Merely to show it?

[ MERELY TO SHOW IT, RIGHT-- ]

People are having trouble with the network? But it’s so quaint!

[refiguered]

I suspect some who are unfamiliar with it might find it frustrating.

I'm glad it doesn't appear to be causing you problems, of course.

[ quaint... huh. ]

Would you say you're offering to help figue-r things out?

[frankish]

I'm sorry, that was terrible. Forget I said anything!

Wait, other people can't see this, can they?

how familiar are you with emojis

[ This is Important. ]

[refiguered]

I have a fairly solid understanding of them.
Why?

AI?/

[refiguered]

It stands for Artificial Intelligence.
I can, of course, provide a more detailed explanation, but I would need to know what level of technology you are familiar with first.

Welcome! It is a pleasure to make your acquaintance, Figue. I am Gale, wizard of Waterdeep. I hope you've found the hotel to be to your liking thus far!

Your offer of aid is very much appreciated; many of us are from worlds where this level of technology has not yet been so much as dreamed of, and while efforts have been made to learn, I am certain there is a great deal more to it than simply learning to type accurately. I'm told that practice will assist with speed, but it's been brought to my attention that these devices of ours can be used for more than simply exchanging messages with one another.

While I would not consider myself a medical expert, I do know a great deal about magic and have some practical first-aid skills in addition to some skill in alchemy. At the very least, should someone be in need of them, I am able to provide healing potions, antidotes and other tinctures.

[refiguered]

It's a pleasure to meet you as well, Gale. The hotel has been unusual, but I've been looking forward to witnessing more of it myself.
But wonderful! I'll add your name to the list.
I do intend to have my offer be at no charge, of course, and I'd be happy to assist with further usage of the device but I'd be curious to know... are your skills in potions and antidotes able to be taught or are they something selective to wizards?

[psynchroneyes]

medical expertise?
what're you expecting to happen in a hotel?

[refiguered]

This isn't exactly your typical hotel.
