[The writing is careful and neat, though the letters are childishly large. The handwriting is familiar, if one were to work hard enough to recognize it.]

My name is Burn. I was born several days ago.

[There is a distinct lack of words for a few minutes, as if that's all he was going to write. And then, the pen comes back, careful, slow,

[unprotagonist]

But how, and of what sort?

[enchainement]

eliminate the ridiculous and start with the familiar ?

[unprotagonist]

Ridiculousness is relative. [Looooking at that job list.]

[crowsloveapples]

Hi Burn! Black told me about you. My name is Apple, welcome to Edensphere!

Finding a job isn't that hard. You just look at the list and find something you think is interesting and try it out! If you don't like it you can find another job.

[unprotagonist]

Hello, Apple. It's a pleasure to meet you. [...] Black did, did he?

[Squinting so hard at that oh gosh.]

I can really do any of these jobs?

btw he has rather obvious blocky kid writing (simple but neat a la a 4th grader)

[crowsloveapples]

Yup, he said you were a kid just like me.

Well I think Greeters and Guards are special. If you want to be a Guard you have to talk to Bastet and she'll test to see if you can fight really well. She'll even let kids in if they can prove themselves. I'm not sure how the Greeters are hired but you can ask Black because he was just hired. I work on the farm.

d'aww, and Burn's looks adult, just big because lol eyesight

[unprotagonist]

I have no idea how old I am.

[Was that all he said? Well then. Perhaps to this person..]

I don't think I fancy being a guard, but [...] I may look into other things.

Does one need to have a day job to be a Greeter?

Hello, Burn, and welcome. My name is Simon.

Unless your dream gave you a clue as to what you may be good at, as my sister told you above, you may have to just try things until something strikes you as familiar.

[unprotagonist]

You are the first person I have encountered with a normal name.

It did not. Your sister? You remember?

[pompous_today]

A normal- oh, yes. I suppose I've never given much thought to everyone else's names, but we do have quite a few usual ones.

Yes. There are ways to recover one's memories... I saw her in my dream but didn't know our relationship until I received a memory.

[unprotagonist]

So it seems. Verbs, titles, objects, ideas are much more common.

"Received" a memory.

Hello, Burn! Welcome to Edensphere!

It is trial and error. You can ask for details about jobs and people who work them often will respond and tell you about them! I am a Scavenger and on the Watch.

[unprotagonist]

Thank you. Everyone has been very warm and friendly so far.

What exactly does the Watch entail?

[spandexisyouth]

You are welcome!

Protecting people and enforcing the laws!
