UN: PinkPilgrim - "Do ANY of you know what you're doing?"

Now don't take this the wrong way or nothing, I'm just trying to be frank here. Because it seems like a whole lot of you haven't played a game like this before. Is this a vocal minority situation or did they just pull names out of hats for this beta? Because to be honest they aren't paying me enough as "User Moderator" or whatever they put on my paychecks to lead around an entire gaggle of ducklings just so they can idiot proof their game or whatever the logic is here. Again, no offense. I'm sure you're all brilliant at whatever it is you do with the rest of your time. Anyway I guess I should aughta say that if you have any problems and you don't wanna go straight to the admin, there's me. But I don't know anything more about the game than you, I just maybe know how to play it better and also I can timeout people if they're acting up.

a new experience unlocked.
is there a problem?
aoi's had a can of tomato while doing erp.
also had a can of tomato juice while just farming and raiding too.
gives energy to stay awake and focused.

What kind of teenage girl drinks this much tomato juice??

her name is aoi.
it has a lot of vitamins and nutrients and comes in a vending machine.
was told food at manga café has not vitamins so tomato juice helps.

How do you pronounce that it's all vowels. And what the hell is a manga cafe??

pronounce it aoi.
place where aoi lives. it has lots of manga, food, and a spot for aoi to sleep.

[Well he guesses he will just not say her name.]

Okay but what's manga.

???
are you a normie?
aoi thought you might be a wizard
"a style of Japanese comic books and graphic novels, typically aimed at adults as well as children."

What, like Dragonball? I don't really know this about that stuff, I'm in the US and I only think we've gotten any of that stuff in like the last decade. I'm in that Dancer class in this game, I don't know which one you're calling wizard.

yes. aoi's read that one.
no. online wizard not class in this game. adult man who is over 30 and a virgin. you unlock magical powers according to online sources.
aoi's a harvest cleric. supporting classes unite.

For sure. I ain't got any interest in being up front taking damage from monsters. Anyway, where the hell did you hear that? I can tell you for sure that ain't true because I'm pretty sure my roommate'd never shut up about it if he'd gained the ability to do magic in real life.

aoi just wants to be needed. MCs need a healer so aoi picked that.

japanese text forums. maybe he is hiding it or only can use it at certain times due to the wizard contract. not supposed to show normies one's power level.

I've known Billy for over a decade, trust me. If he'd become a wizard I'd know.

what if he casted a spell on you already and you have no idea.
irl wizards can do that.

Hold on let me ask him

[After a delay]

He says there'd be no point in having magic powers if he couldn't tell anyone And also to stop telling strangers on the internet he's a virgin but that's neither here nor there.

having secret magic powers and not being able to tell your closest friends until a major plot point has been triggered is common. maybe you haven't triggered the flags on his route so he hasn't shown you yet.
if you need help getting on his route aoi can help you.
haven't played too much BL but know how these games work

What the hell are you talking about?

are you asking for aoi's help?

I'm asking you to explain what you mean by "routes" and also "BL."

routes is a chapter post-common route centered between the MC and a love interest. BL is a genre of romance that involves gay male relationships.

I'm not gay!??? Billy is just my roommate!

just roommates is a common trope. he's a virgin. love interests are usually virgins.
maybe he's your exception.
some people like both.

Oh my god.

did you have an epiphany?
you're welcome. aoi's glad to have helped.

You didn't do anything and I didn't have an epiphany I just can't believe you're making me read these things. Real life isn't like whatever weird gay videogames you're playing!
