[There are a few extraneous scribbles across the page, with a handful of minutes between each of them before he actually writes any words. His handwriting is small, messy, and slants hilariously sideways, regardless of whether or not the pages have lines on them.]So can anybody else actually read this, or am I crazy for believing that see-through

Ooh, another artist! And craziness may just be relative around here.

[dragonsmith]

And lemme guess, this relative craziness probably has everything to do with the populace being transparent.

[cuz_its_our_job]

I'd say the relative craziness is more inversely proportional to the amount of food we've had in the past 48 hours or so, but it the transparency levels of the locals may have something to do with it, yes.

I'm Reno. Welcome to the nuthouse.

[dragonsmith]

Crap, I hadn't even thought about food, is there anywhere a guy can catch fish around here?

Nice to meet you, Reno. I'm Hiccup.

[ridestherider]

Yes, we can all read it. [More or less.]

[dragonsmith]

Right then. And who constitutes "we" and "all" these days?

[ridestherider]

There's Reno up there, and Mitsuru and Hope, and myself ... there are quite a few of us here, but I haven't really spoken to many of them.

[dragonsmith]

Reno, yeah. Kind of a funny name. [Not that we're one to talk.] Mitsuru and Hope... are also funny names.

[heartunhardened]

You're not crazy, though the notion of this place may sound outlandish enough.

[dragonsmith]

I wouldn't say it's outlandish, just... weird. I mean most women where I'm from have almost as much if not more of a beard than the men, so I guess the next step could very easily be transparency. Who am I to judge?

They have--

Facial hair and...opacity seems to be quite the jump.

I don't think you're crazy for believing! And even if you are, so is everyone else here.

[dragonsmith]

Well that's good to know. Especially if you're of a less-transparent persuasion than he was. Then it's really good.

[livingforthree]

I'm not transparent!

I don't think so, at least. Hope-kun didn't seem to think I was.

[dragonsmith]

That's good, we already outnumber the see-through guy out front, then. I'm Hiccup.
