[Well, at least there's one person on the network who isn't yelling. Far from it, actually, though he's always in the mood for a fight. But today, Hamilton's mental voice is a little woozy. Tired-sounding, really, and certainly it's not because he hasn't been sleeping the past few days. That would be completely ridiculous.

It's rare that he asks for help. But this month, he might need a little, if only as distraction.]

Okay, folks. Book recommendations, if you got any that I can read around here. Or if there're any about wherever y'all are from. Or, hell, I dunno, I'd appreciate a loan of a quill and some paper. I gotta do something, and there ain't a treasury to mind or a newspaper to run here.

Oh! That's a shame. Paper really might be the best solution, if you're looking to write, then... I'd think that would be easier for someone to make? I'm still not sure how that works.

[And now she is just going to gently wander away from the original subject.]

You ran a newspaper? That sounds like very interesting work. Was it published on actual paper?

[aimedhigh]

[He could probably get paper from Malik if he really wanted to.] ....Of course it was. Why wouldn't it be? An' I didn't exactly run it, I more -- founded it. Ran the treasury, though.

News isn't offered on paper anymore, for the most part, where I'm from. I hear there are still small presses on Moatoob that do well? And there's specialty printing on Neudaiz for collectors items, but at least on Parum it's entirely electronic!

[She has learned facts, and she is proud of these facts.]

...what does running the treasury involve?

[aimedhigh]

Well, in my case, it involved founding a national bank an' making sure our country could actually survive after the end of the war.

[photonicfighter]

Oh! That's amazing! That's incredibly important work.

[She sounds genuinely awed and impressed.]

I think I can see why you're restless. It must be much more exciting, doing that.
