WHO: Kaveh, Shigeru, & YOU.
WHAT: Paint & Pour.
WHEN: April 2nd.
WHERE: Spring Segment, Prism Lake
WARNINGS: Drunk Painting.


[ kaveh decided to set up the paint & pour on the shores of prism lake, because a beautiful landscape seemed like something that artists of all skill level could enjoy creating. not to mention, it's also something that probably wouldn't suffer too much if/when guests inevitably started getting tispy. ]

[ there are three canopy tents framing the lake and, unsurprisingly, the first of which has all manner of art supplies: canvases, easels, and paints. the second has an assortment of delicious snacks made by shigeru and the third, final, and likely most anticipated has the wine. there are at least a dozen bottles, each labeled with the segment and shop it came from, because kaveh absolutely went around with the intention of helping them promote their business. ]

[ it's not a complete lie!
everybody wins!! ]


( ooc; feel free to assume that your character received an invitation from either kaveh or shigeru. it IS open to the public though, so if your character is strolling by and so much as makes eye contact with either of them, then they'll likely get dragged into the fun. anyway! bring your own top level~! )

Yes, in most urban areas. However, there are plenty of rural, more remote locations where the notion of going somewhere simply to receive a scrap of paper isn't feasible. Should those lands abandon all hope of receiving medical assistance simply because of their location?

[ A title is just a title. Practice and experience paired with learning can be just as efficient, if not moreso in some cases. ]

I...don't know. I thought everyone lived in cities. What is "rural"?

[ For someone who's spent their entire life living inside a research tower with the only view at their disposal one which overlooks a city...coming to Ellipsa was already pretty eye-opening. And now hes saying people actually go and live outside cities too?

Dunk, man. ]

[ Alhaitham takes the other's questions in stride, freely willing to share the information he has. If he can expand someone else's knowledge base, why wouldn't he? ]

It's a term referring to countrysides rather than towns. One could typically associate it with farmlands. The equivalent here would be if individuals still resided within the abandoned farms in the spring segment, if you've been out to that area.

[essenceborn]

That's the one with all the flowers. I like that Segment a lot.

[ Nen goes to that segment and the winter segment the most. Just like flowers are a marvel to Nen, so is snow. It just wasn't around in their world. ]

[rudementary]

It's aesthetically pleasing to most.

[ He is clearly not quite as taken with the sights, but he can appreciate that... others appreciate them. ]

Places like that can often be quite far away from a city, too far for a city's doctor to be efficient. So they have their own healers within smaller towns to service them.

[essenceborn]

I see... I understand. Travel to the city would take too long for anything urgent, so it is more convenient to have someone nearby who had the necessary knowledge, even if they lack the qualifications.

[rudementary]

Precisely. If your goal is simply to apply your knowledge in a way that will help even a single person, a license isn't necessary. Simply grow your experience carefully.

[ This is the kind of stuff you want to hear from a scholar right. ]

[essenceborn]

Does that apply even if I live inside the city? I like the outdoors, but I do not want to live there.

[ absolutely 10/10 best advice. ]

[rudementary]

That would depend on how much of an importance your local laws place upon practicing without a license. Alternatively, your personal preference in operating above or below the table.

[ Thank you thank you he's here all night. ]

[essenceborn]

I don't know if my world had local laws.

Or laws.

[ ......... actually. ]

Does Ellipsa have laws?

[ That's something Nen should probably...know. ]

[rudementary]

Yes. There are some books in the library covering them.

[ Though perhaps not the most recent of recent laws, all things considered. ]

[essenceborn]

Which section would a law be under in Non-Fiction?

[ Nen is going to look at half these laws and wonder why the age limits and restrictions seem so over the place.......it's almost like people base these things on culture and society rather than objective fact??? Bizarre. ]

[rudementary]

[ Of course, Alhaitham is the kind of nerd who can take a free piece of paper and pencil and immediately scribble down the exact location, along with a small rough map to the spot from the entrance. ]

Here. These shelves should have all you need.

[essenceborn]

[ Of course he is.....and of course, Nen absolutely approves of that. Nerds are the most helpful when it comes to stuff like this. 5-star review on Yelp for Alhaitham. ]

Thank you... Oh, dip. You draw a map, too. Is this the library interior?

[ if it's drawn like a floor plan, Alhaitham gets even bigger bonus points. Nen might even look at him with Approval^TM (sorry kaveh ur man's a keeper) ]

[rudementary]

[ Thank you for your positive review, dear customer. ]

[ And it's absolutely a floor plan, what heathens aren't using floor plans. ]

Roughly, yes. The library organization system is different than I'm used to, so I thought it best to convey the exact location with a map instead.

[essenceborn]

[ RIGHT....all these people using landmarks and non-floor maps are total heathens. Nen can't read a city map to save their life. ]

I like the way your critical thinking skills work, ........

[ ... ]

I don't know your name. I'm Nenonen.

[rudementary]

I believe it's merely common sense to use the most easily understandable method.

[ Is it easily understandable or is it just them. ]

It's Alhaitham. Let me know what the results of your medical-career pursuits are.

[ He admits, he's interested to see how this works out. ]

[essenceborn]

I shall.

[ If Nen was more emotive, a salute or something comical might go here. But they aren't so they just. stand there. And nod. ]

What is your network username? Many people do not use their real one, so I never know who is talking. I am "Nenonen" so it will be easy to find me.

[rudementary]

I use 'Scribe' as my username, out of a personal preference for not having my name publicly available.

[ This is a man who pointedly makes himself hard to find even though he's required to have public office hours. ]

[essenceborn]

[ Alhaitham.............are you a hermit ]

I see...'Scribe.' I will remember and report on my career in medicine.

[rudementary]

[ Depends on how you define hermit. ]

I look forward to your future.

I'll return to my reading then and leave you to your art.
