( video; ) un: shigeru miyata

[mysophobic]

[ The video will be spanning over a table set inside Shigeru's house. There's lots of different types of food and beverages lining said table as Shigeru finally shows up in the feed. He'll give a little wave as his half spider half snake wraps itself around his shoulders to get a peak at what its owner is doing. ]

I was wondering if...anyone would like some cooking lessons? I'm offering them free of charge! And, um, I guess if anyone wants to help me learn how to cook different foods from their worlds that would be decent enough payment! If it's more than one person maybe we could do a class, or something like that. Unless people rather have one on one lessons then that's fine too!

[ Shigeru please you are too pure. But his happy expression turns a bit somber as he asks his next question. ]

Also does anyone know anything about curses? Or perhaps being possessed?

[ He looks a little unsure as he fiddles with his gloves and then the LED bracelet on his wrist as he pauses. There's red specks of blood on his gloves even now, but it's not as bad as they used to be. Still he'll smile again as he huffs a little, shaking his head. ]

I guess I have a few questions is all. But that's bit somber, isn't it? What's your favorite dessert from your world or that you tried here? [ Trying for some levity despite the last thing he asked. He's so not good at this sort of thing forgive him!! ]

I could always teach you, if you wanted! Especially if you enjoyed it.

[ Shigeru smiles brightly back at him. ]

It's nice to meet you! Sorry if our first encounter was a bit...strange. [ But that's what dreams usually are, aren't they? ]

Um. Were you looking to learn how to cook?

[billyrocks]

I don't know about doing it myself, but I'd be interested in hearing more about it from you.

[He waves his hand nonchalantly.]

It's fine. I've seen far more stranger things.

That actually doesn't sound too bad. I'm most interested in Asian recipes since I was young when I left Korea, so I don't remember how to make most of the food from there.

[He could make simple Korean dishes, but that was it, along with coffee, eggs, bacon, soup, wild game, and the like. Plus a few Cajun dishes thanks to Goody.]

Well you basically create a character based on these things called classes. There's also races you can choose from too, and depending on the race you're given certain perks that make you more attune to become certain classes. But you really don't have to use whatever class you're intended for, otherwise it wouldn't be customizable. But you create your character, their story, and how they fit into the world you're playing in! There's usually someone who creates the world and the places you explore too. It's really fun when you play with a lot of people!

[ But at the mentioning of Korean food Shigeru brightens even more. ] I've cooked a lot of Korean dishes before! Hana Song...I-I was good friends with her so I used to bring her food. But I've gotten really good with Asian recipes. My...boyfriend, Genji, he's from Japan so I-I read and learned how to cook most of the dishes from there.

[He's trying not to get lost, but it's proving difficult. Still, Billy looks curious all the same.]

So it's a game and a story at the same time? What sort of races are there?

[Billy's eyes widen a little upon hearing Hana's name, and even more when he hears Genji's.]

Hana? I was friends with her as well, even though it was only a short time before she left. She was one of the first people I met when I arrived months ago. Ironically, we also met through a dream. She told me about you and Genji when we were getting fitted into our hanbok for Seollal. It's a pleasure to finally meet you.

[He flashes a small smile at Shigeru.]

[mysophobic]

Yes that's right! It's a mixture of both, really. There's all sorts of races, depending on how you want the game played. You can even make your own race if the person running the game allows it.

[ He looks back at Billy with some curiosity and some sadness. He's still upset that Hana isn't here anymore and it's been hard on Genji too, but they've been managing. ]

It's really nice to meet you as well. I'm sorry...about her going home, you were close with her, right? [ It's been hard on a lot of people he can imagine. Hana was filled with energy and always pretty upbeat. So her leaving will definitely be felt. ]
