A penny for your thoughts

[refinedvillian]

Since we all met under strange circumstances, I want to really introduce myself.

[A small, elegant bow.]

Earl Edgar Ashenbert. It's a pleasure to have a chance to meet the real you.

I've read some of the entries but I'd like some more information, if possible. Everything from before was from what you all call a virus? Are there any long term affects? What else can I expect from them?

Also, I'm interested in world hops. If someone can prove they're possible, I could make it worth your time.

Yes, that was a virus. As far as I can tell, the only likely repercussions will present themselves in any change in relationships with other people of this community. Which, given your newness to the community, means that unless you were led to believe anything drastic about your relationship with another you should be just fine.

As to what else you can expect, the safest approach is to expect anything and everything. Even the ridiculous.

Especially the ridiculous.

[refinedvillian]

There's really no limit to what they can do? No way to avoid them?

[grimlight]

If there is, we've yet to see one. And no, not unless the community chooses to spare you.

[These two should get along like a house on fire.]

It is a pleasure to meet you, Earl. How wonderful to have a few more gentlemen of quality around the community.

Viruses are tremendously varied. I'm afraid there's simply no way of predicting what might come next! This place likes you to stay on your toes. Now, if you'd like to come for tea, I'd be happy to send a drone to worldhop you!

You're back!

[refinedvillian]

The pleasure is mine. [A personalized bow to you.] Sadly, I haven't gotten your name.

A drone? It isn't possible to come yourself?

Come to me bb!

[atadflamboyant]

Lord Akeldama. The pleasure is all mine.

Unfortunately, no.

[madeitsquare]

"Worth our time," you say?

[refinedvillian]

Being an Earl does come with certain benefits.

[madeitsquare]

Well, I can't worldhop, I'm afraid! But what if I find you someone who can?

[embersandashes]

Where are you?

[refinedvillian]

I'm currently on a private cruise ship outside of Ireland.

Are you offering?

[carriesparasol]

A pleasure to meet you, Lord Ashenbert. I am Lady Alexia Maccon.

Do you mean to say you were brought to the community in the midst of a virus?

[refinedvillian]

It's always my pleasure to meet someone so beautiful, Lady Maccon.

I'd become a student at a university. I've heard I was lucky, considering what some of them can do.

[eldesthatter]

I don't think there are any long term affects. At least...I've never experienced any.

[refinedvillian]

Have you been through many of them?

[soulfist]

Hello there, handsome~ It's a pleasure to meet you.

Hopefully you've done nothing that you might regret, otherwise then there's nothing to worry about!

Always video here

[refinedvillian]

I can say that the pleasure is definitely mine.

I try not to regret very many of the things I do. Today, I don't want to regret not finding out your name.

[chestboard]

Yeah yeah that was definitely a virus.... no doubt about it.

[he's still stuck in this hell and no signs of leaving yet.]

Also vid

[refinedvillian]

A mild one, I've heard. Can they really be so brutal?

[harpbeat]

I'm quite capable of worldhopping! May I ask where you are?

[refinedvillian]

I've already had the chance to see it work but I would never refuse the chance to see such a lovely lady.

If you're still willing to come, I'm on a ship outside of Ireland. My room is 203.

[nofondueforyou]

I don't believe we met already, but how do you do. You joined at a very odd time, but you seem to be taking it well.

[refinedvillian]

It was interesting and made it a little easier to believe than if I had just found it.

But it's a pleasure to get the chance to meet you, Mrs...?

[doesitwithtrees]

[An earl? Oh my.]

It is an honor, my lord.

Most viruses aren't as long as the last one, and don't take you to a new place.

Video forever

[refinedvillian]

The honor is all mine, especially if I'm lucky enough to get a name.

No, I heard the last one was one of the better viruses.
