hello everyone ヾ(・ω・ｏ)
my name is ren and i have a couple of questions about house stuff
or finding a place to live in wyver stuff i guess
though if you live somewhere else and want to talk about that then go ahead~

anyway, i was wondering what parts of the city are good for newcomers other than the old city
i know the old city seems to be where it's easiest to get somewhere but it's not really very nice compared to the rest of the city... (Ｔ▽Ｔ)
and it's been a really long time since i had to find a place to live, and doing it by myself is harder because it means i have to worry about money more... ＼| ￣ヘ￣|／

[As someone who's been pretty well off his entire life, the "having to worry about money" angle is probably the newest part of all this to Ren.]

i haven't been here very long so i thought it might be best to get advice from people who've been here longer~
since a lot of you seem to have been here a pretty long time
so i'd really appreciate anyone's help! ҉*\( ‘ω’ )/*҉

It's amazing what hobbies one can find interest in when they have infinite free time and lots of boredom.

But if it's that much of a 'secret' I suppose I can be spared the juicy details.

[thedarkbond]

hmm, doesn't sound like you're leading a very diligent lifestyle...

i'm glad we understand each other (❁´ω`❁)

[smithandwesson]

... Apparently.

Feels strange actually.

[thedarkbond]

maybe you should try doing it more often (*´艸`*)

[smithandwesson]

... What?

Understanding people?

[thedarkbond]

and agreeing with them~

[smithandwesson]

Ah yes.
Blindly agreeing to everyone without questioning anything sounds like a wonderful way to go about life.

[And absolutely mind-numbing.]

Is that how you go about everything you do?

[thedarkbond]

there you go again with your conclusions~ (。ｕ艸ｕ。)
seems like that must be pretty blissful for you, right?

[It's a staggeringly obtuse way of saying he thinks it's about as mind-numbing as agreeing to everything.]

[smithandwesson]

There's a famous saying within my world:

'Don't practice what you don't preach.'

Perhaps those words may do you some good. Because I'm not taking the advice to blindly agree from a man who obviously isn't much of the unquestioning moron himself.

[What a backhanded compliment.]

[thedarkbond]

you take things way too seriously though, grumpy-san ʅ(´-ω-`)ʃ
i'm just trying to help you to lighten up a little~

[smithandwesson]

....... You sayin' I'm don't know how to lighten up?

[thedarkbond]

well, i think you just said it (●´艸`)
but i don't think you're wrong about it

[smithandwesson]

I'm only just repeating what you yourself said.

[He can feel himself outwardly sighing. This conversation is running in circles.]

In fact, I can pretty much take that opinion of yours and say the opposite of you. You really should take some of these matters a bit more seriously no?

[thedarkbond]

that sounds pretty boring to me ┐(￣ヮ￣)┌
i don't get how you serious people enjoy being like that all the time

[smithandwesson]

It's not a matter of enjoyment. It's a matter of responsibility.

It just proves how young you are, mentally at least, that you never had to go around with any such worries bearing down upon you.

[thedarkbond]

[It's a good thing this is a text exchange, because Ren couldn't actually help a moment of incredulous laughter at that.]

hmm, i think if you have worries bearing down on you all the time, that's a you problem (゜-゜)
maybe you should see someone about it?

[smithandwesson]

[Oh goodness! Seeing that on his screen almost managed to get a laugh out of Sanzo... Almost.]

Perhaps if there was someone in this world who did such things. I doubt there are many certified therapists in this world though. At least I most certainly haven't found any yet.

It there are I'm sure they're all booked up with all us crazy assholes the Natha keep bringing down here.

[thedarkbond]

you could ask around...there seem to be plenty of doctors, at least (-｡-;
now it just sounds kind of like you're making excuses

[smithandwesson]

You would think such people would advertise their services around if that were the case.

Although if you're insinuating that you may know of someone good I'm more than open to recommendations.

[thedarkbond]

people don't really seem to advertise here at all, honestly... (・_・ヾ

i can't help you with that since i don't know anyone, but from the sound of things you must know plenty of people who can~

[smithandwesson]

Of course. I'll be happy to drop some recommendations the moment I hear of some.

[God only knows both of them obviously need it.]

[thedarkbond]

it's nice that you want to share the experience, but i'm sure you have plenty of friends who actually need it ┗(･ω･)┛
no need to waste it on me~

[smithandwesson]

'Friends'. I don't believe I have any idea what you're talking about.

Besides, it's only right that I play 'good samaritan' and help those in need. So if I find someone running around giving free psyche evaluations it's my obligation to offer up those services.

It's a priests duty to help the sick, right?

[thedarkbond]

right, but i think you need a second opinion
otherwise a grumpy person like you is going to think everyone else is sick (✿´ ꒳ ` )

[smithandwesson]

You genuinely believe there are people in this world who have absolutely nothing wrong with them what-so-ever?

Of course everyone has something fucking them up in some way or another. If anything, it's those who deny what may be wrong with them who are those with the most problems.

At least, that's what I've always seen from personal experience.
