Train Questionnaire

[runs_on_batteries]

Thanks for participating but to protect my sanity, no more questionnaires will be accepted.

Welcome to the Voidtrecker. This is, for better or worse, a new world for all of us and we’re stuck here. In order to detect patterns in these abductions, get important safety information, and other important details for living in this community I’m conducting a survey. Please answer everything to the best of your ability. If you have any questions about the form please consult whoever is standing next to you other than me, because you should be intelligent enough to answer these very straight forward questions.

All information presented here will be kept strictly confidential and the purpose is to collect data.
Please fill it out and deliver it to me, Tony Stark. You'll most likely find me in my lab (aka, the quiet room that has a lock, a 'keep out' sign, and glass painted).

[ooc: Just fyi, Tony *will* comment on something about your answers when you hand in your answers IC. I've checked with the mod and these can count toward bonus threads, etc. Also, it's very common that people lie on these forms. Fill them out as your character would IC please.]

*** Update *** I've recruited a few more people to help with these so you all can get a response faster and spare my sanity. If you have a preference between Tony, Feanor, Ignis, and Gladio. This group might be referenced to as the Welcome Committee before too long.

[This is ... not what he expected. Fëanor has to read the description several times before the meaning really sinks in. Not because it's so illegible, he's seen worse, but the message is just unbelievable. As he reads about pain, hallucinations, how there is no cure, and the only thing there is just slows down the spread of this...disease? Though to him, it sounds more like a parasite.

Poor child. ]

It's perfect. I'll pass it to Lady Wen. [There's a noticeable pause before he adds. The tone of his voice has changed too.] We have a school here. You can attend if you wish.

[ It seems to Ifrit that Fëanor has cooled down too. Good. She doesn't know how to handle adults like that.

At his mention of school, she stiffens a little bit. ] I..... guess Silence would want me to keep up with my homework and stuff. [ Her tone suggests it is not something she personally finds pleasant, in the way most kids or teenagers don't appreciate school. However, it also suggests that she cares a lot about what "Silence" might think.

Because she does. Silence is the most important person in the world to Ifrit, really. And Saria, of course, but Saria wouldn't even see Ifrit any more.

...Of course, Ifrit couldn't see Silence or Saria now, stuck aboard this train going to different worlds. But she could at least make sure she's doing what they would want. ]

Then it would only be proper to honor your friend's wish.

[Or mentor... or whoever this person is. He went with friend on the assumption that were they a family member, they'd be more likely to be identified as such. And it didn't feel right to ask for clarification. Maybe some other time.]

What were you learning?

[oripyrothy]

[ Even if he asked, her relationship with Silence was hard to describe, mostly because they never really put anything into words. "Friend" wasn't accurate, but she didn't really have a better term. Guardian, maybe? ...Well, it wasn't important right now.

What she was learning, huh... ] Reading and writing, math. Some history and science stuff too.

Silence and Doctor say it's the stuff most kids learn earlier in schools, but I've never been to one. I didn't start learning that stuff until I came to Rhodes Island.

[tinkerheart]

They were correct. Most do. [Human kids on Earth at least. The elves... well, they have a more relaxed curriculum.] You need not worry. All those are things you can learn here as well. So you won't risk getting behind in your studies.

[History might be a problem. Having so many worlds to choose from.]
