[network] @standardissue; Dear Norfinbury [open] - Day 178
Hello, everyone. Welcome to "Dear Norfinbury," an advice column created by yours truly. Got a burning question you want a second opinion on? Need advice for a situation or problem? Having relationship troubles that you could use some help ironing out?
You've come to the right place here! This forum has been created to allow people to solicit advice from the general populace of Norfinbury for any and all questions you might have!
But wait, you say. You have questions, but you don't want to attach your name to them. How can you safely post and have discussions when there's no anonymous function on these tablets?
That's where I come in!
Simply send your submission and any subsequent responses you want to keep anonymous to @standardissue, and I will post them for you here, removing any mention of your name. You have my word that I will keep your confidence, on my SOLDIER honor! Try to be courteous to each other, but know that I won't alter any responses beyond the requirements of anonymity.
[OOC: Okay, so here's how this works! Anyone who wants to submit something to the column can reply to the SUBMISSIONS thread. The Submissions thread is public, just helps separate the genuine requests from everything else that will no doubt get posted here. If you want a submission or a reply to be ANONYMOUS, please mark it as such in your subject line. Just to be clear, though, any and all "anonymous" submissions have to pass through Kunsel's hands. That part can be handwaved, so you guys don't necessarily need MY involvement to tag back and forth. I promise he will dutifully reproduce every word that gets sent, minus the poster's name. Just keep in mind that Kunsel technically is involved in every anonymous posting, and that all anonymous posts will appear to be sent by @standardissue.
Also, he won't step in and cut off any anonymous threads unless I'm either specifically asked, or unless things escalate wildly. E.g. if you think your character is going to start sending anonymous death threats, Kunsel might object to posting that. Mostly, I don't want to interfere with threads if I can at all avoid it, but use your judgment here and contact me if you think it should come to that. o/ I am available through PM or through plurk at
Of course, I'm under no illusions as to how well this whole idea is going to go off. If this whole thing goes up in flames and never actually gets around to any advice, it will come as no surprise. :3
Just have fun with it, everyone!]

[ See her problem? ]
no subject
The only way to fix that is say something.
no subject
But what if I do say something and they're still not interested?
no subject
I didn't think Jim would be interested when I realized I liked him.
Then things came out and we've been together ever since. :)
no subject
[ Forgive her, her experience with a certain redhead makes her wary at times. ]

no subject
They're hidden beneath layers of clothing right now.She doesn't really know what they are. As for talent, she's actually a little peeved about that... ]I can cook, but there's no reason for me to do that here.
[ Mentioning being able to fight might give her away, so she's not going to mention it. ]
no subject
Jim can cook, too. It's amazing.
[ So, cooking works! ]
Being there when he needs it and making him smile could work, too.
What do you have in common?
What drew you to him in the first place?
no subject
No. I mean, I can't cook because of lack of supplies. I have no way of starting a fire or anything.
How does he cook? Does he use the food provided?
[ And does he have cookware? ]
You know, you just described being a friend.
As for what drew us together? Every time it's been circumstances.
no subject
We have a lighter and cooking utensils.
Yeah! It is like having a friend.
Jim is my best friend as well as my boyfriend.
He gives me something to look forward to each day.
no subject
And with supplies running low, who knows when I'd be able to get anything to cook with. I might have to start finding thin metal sheets and using those.
[ If she ever finds a way for fire again. ]
I...don't think I could date my best friend, actually.
But how can you tell when one becomes the other?
no subject
We have some extra pans.
It feels different from just a friend.
When I touch one of my friends, it's normal.
When I touch my boyfriend my heart beats faster and I feel all warm inside.
Almost like a tickle or a fluttering feeling?
no subject
[ Frying pans make great weapons. ]
Oh. I really wouldn't know about that feeling. I've never experienced it before.
But I believe you.
no subject
Live a little and give into passion.
You never know when you might lose it.
no subject
[ Because damn, even on a whole other world, she's not doing so well. ]
What do you mean by "passion"?
[ She's read books, you know! ]
no subject
I mean you have to live a little.
no subject
You mean take a chance, right? I...don't know.
[ And she rushes headlong into other things. Go figure. ]
