Mr. Mun, excuse me...

Ahem!

It is my unwavering opinion that I would like to speak to you about this "lostrealm" thing you have me on.

You will talk with me? Splendid! I am quite enamored by your sense of thoughtfulness and respect towards your charges, Mun.

Er...pardon?

"I'm popular?"

Oh...*blush*....heavens me...I certainly did not think of myself in such a way. Assuredly! I mean, after all, I am merely still young in comparison with the rest of your muses! (that little blue haired girl is how old?)

Oh my...What was I going to say again? Oh, yes, right. The game that's going on. I must speak with you plainly on the matter, Mundane. Your treatment of me aside, I cannot quite grasp the concepts presented in lostrealm or any "game" as you speak of. "Cross medium" you may call it, but I call it crossing dimensional boundaries that which humankind--or any kind--was ever meant to cross! It's baffling how I could suddenly just stumble across pitfalls and dairy traps amongst scamps as small as rats to even legendary figures I read about in a book about social sciences.

I may not be the most well-traveled individual, but I know that this is...well, it's just unfathomably nuts. This is, of course, just me voicing my opinions of course.

Excuse me?...

...you have two muses who are blue haired succubi? I would never have thought I would ever use that word in my childhood! To think I just read it in a book the other day...

It's something you'll get used to. When I was younger, I felt very much the same way you do now.

Including the love of books. Miss Mun sent me over here in part because we have that in common. You wouldn't happen to have any reading recommendations, would you?

Hm? Oh, a fellow scholar! How riveting!

While I myself recommend any such topics as chemistry and biology, I don't have a particular title I could speak of to start. I guess the first biology book I got from school was the start of it all.

Let's see here...[Inside his hat...out comes a list.] I have here a few favorites my esteemed--if inconvenient--mun wrote down and gave to me a while ago. Ahem...

"Discworld series. 'Reaper Man' and 'Thud!' in particular"
"The Divine Comedy"
Circled here is just "Visual Novels". I haven't the faintest what that is. The word "Nasu" is also written here. It's beyond me.
"Good Omens"
"American Gods"

These are all aimed at much older ladies and gentlemen, as I've heard of none of these. What about yourself? You certainly seem quite enthused about the written word, I would be delighted to hear from you.

Scholar and teacher, for that matter. Though in a most fantastic field.

Ah, Miss Mun was just talking about "Good Omens" last night. And she has read some of the Discworld series, enough for her to be quite gleeful at my non-fatal encounters with their Death. She's also read the series that features my husband, though I haven't read all of them myself. Most of my reading lately tends to be from "The Tales of Beedle the Bard" for my children's bedtime stories, but I digress.

I know Miss Mun absolutely devoured "The Princess Bride." And she's slowly but surely working her way through "Stranger in a Strange Land," though she doesn't make many forays into science fiction. Nothing against the genre, mind you, just the result of having varied interests. And when she reads non-fiction, her interest lies in culinary history, as she is a chef.

As for my own recommendations, I like the histories and legends of my home. The creation myths of Lunar in particular are quite enchanting.

It CAN get kinda crazy, but it's somethin' you just get used to.

Over time, you get to meet a lot'a interesting people! An' even go different places!
