[As soon as the feed clicks on a woman can be seen, eating a bag of popcorn. She's been flipping around her journal for a while and feels her curiosity at it's peek. That and it's raining. Not a fun day at all.]

Hello everyone, I hope you're staying indoors and keeping warm. 'When it rains, it pours!' as the old saying goes. Don't want anyone catching a flu out there.

Hey, I'm curious: what kind of places does everyone come from? An island, a desolate desert, the ocean, the city- maybe you don't even have a place to call home. This 'different worlds' thing is really exciting! Like a merge of different cultures coming all together...against our wills. [It doesn't sound as good now that she thinks about it.]

...Oh, I hope I'm not prying though. Some people think I do that a lot, so don't be offended. I'm not going to store this information away for nefarious means. It's just a way to spend time waiting for the sun to come up. Exchanging stories that we might never hear in our 'world' sounds fun, don't you think?

[She's about to click off the feed, but then remembers something important.]

Wait! Almost forgot: thanks to everyone who helped me get settled into this place a couple weeks back. You know who you are.

So you're trying to instill confidence in her. That's very kind of you.

Healing magic? If she exists then why even have a clinic though.

Because magic isn't something you should rely on. When it fails, mundane means remain.

Besides, not everyone here knows it.

That's a very good way to think of it. I'm sure some people here only know how to use magic.

An astute observation! I admittedly don't know it. Don't think I'll need a clinic any time soon hopefully. [Getting torn in half didn't stop her from healing ten minutes later.]

Hopefully, yes. But it's there if you need it.

I imagine healing magic is one of those things you hope to never actually need.

It's just one of those things you always want to have in case something goes wrong. [She shrugs] I'm not into getting battle scars if I can avoid it, but I hope you keep yourself safe.

So do I. But I appreciate your concern.

Concern comes with the job. You're practically a patient! [Of course everyone in Luceti is, but don't tell them that~!]

As long as it's just practically.

I don't work for cheap, so I guess it is practically speaking.

So your job back home was actually to go into people's dreams?

...how much did you get paid for that, just out of curiosity?

Yes. I was a dream therapist back home.

Hm. ...More than a librarian can afford~! [She giggles. Actually the last job she had was done for free on a favor, but she doubts it would be cheap considering the sensitive equipment they were using.]

I survived over a year with no paycheck at all, so I think in terms of income you'd have me beat anyway.

How do you do that? What you do with the dreams? It shouldn't be as easy as it seemed to be for you.

We used a psychotherapy machine called the D.C. Mini. You just connect one to the patient's ear and another to the therapist. The therapist connects to the patient's subconscious and can observe their dreams and interact with them inside of it. It's a revolutionary invention in the field of psychology, but it was still in the phases of testing and involved some potential risks. I decided to use it to treat patients who volunteered.

It sounds very advanced, yes. [He says this in the tone of voice of one who knows absolutely nothing about computers]
