I'm about to. Lucky for me I have the day off, apart from a few chores.

Glad you did not have a lot to do, at least!

I love break times. So very much. ^.^

Are you busy? You said you would likely be unavailable at this time. So, should I reply now?

It's up to you. Heck, even if I'm busy, you're more than welcome to post, and I'll respond whenever I can.

Technically, I said it's "likely," not definite. xD I was expecting to be unavailable for a good portion of that range, so gave the warning, but with everything packed away, I don't exactly have much else to occupy me when I take breaks and whatnot. I keep my laptop in a backpack, so that did not get tossed into the truck. Thus, RPG. Called it quits for the night a couple hours ago, so now I'm mulling around on the internet. Still at the old place for another day, so I have internet access, which is going to be up here through the end of the month.

Oh. I will post soon, then.

At some point, maybe we can have Serapis and Thayva revise certain procedures at the orphanage. Not now and probably not for a while, but if there are problems at the orphanage, those require attention. Like making that mess in the cafeteria.

Also, on a minor note, did you know there's going to be a Legends of the Hidden Temple TV movie? The kid actors in it are too young to have seen the show growing up!

About revising things at the orphanage, I wouldn't worry about it unless it actually became a problem or something, or if you really wanted to. I just decided to make that something that bothers Kia.

... I have no idea what Legends of the Hidden Temple is. xD What is/was it?

I don't really want to, but I figured that if the orphanage is facing money issues, it may have to change a few things.

Oh. That was an old Nickelodeon game show which ran from 1993-1995. It was very good for its low budget and time. One of the rooms the contestants had to get through was the Shrine of the Silver Monkey. It involved assembling a simple three-piece monkey in the correct order, but few of them ever did it in time.

Gotchya. :-)

Huh. Sounds interesting! I'll have to look it up sometime. "Shrine of the Silver Monkey." Sounds like something from Indiana Jones!

Any suggestions for cutbacks in the orphanage?

It is very clearly influenced by Indiana Jones. Very corny show by today's standards. Lots of cardboard ruins.

Uh... Oh boy. I'm horrible at that kind of thing. What exactly do they have that is draining their financial supplies? I know you have the necessities of food and clothing, the staff, things like candles and oil for lamps courtesy of our general setting, cleaning supplies...

Oh my gosh. That's great. xD

Hmm. I keep seeing "in 1 hr" whenever I post. Is that happening to you at all, or is it just me?

Costs related to the staff and food would be the largest expenses. Building maintenance would probably be next.

As for the "in 1 hr", I see that from time to time without reason. Not sure what is up with that.

Also, while I don't think this is useful for any particular character, I have a picture of a sorcerer boy. He's dressed like a dracon or something, but that's related to another RP with dracons in it. Long story.

What could they cut? Maybe start getting just the bare minimum in everything? Lower salaries?

Okay. Glad it's not just me. xD

Interesting. Did you draw that, or find it online?

Well, maybe not quite the bare minimum. I'm hoping that events in the RP can get them more cash.

As for the RP itself, what is that long part you wrote? Most of your post seems to have little to do with the rest of the RP. It is still an interesting post, though.

I drew it myself. Like it?

Okay, cool.

It's kind of a pre-plot post for the sake of buildup. With the whole crystal, world-in-danger, gotta go save stuff and people and things... We're still doing that, right? Plus it introduces my other two "official" characters, if you will. The ones I have a detailed profile up for.

That's awesome that it's your own drawing! Thanks for sharing. :-)

Oh. Well, that is some very good buildup, in that case.

And you are welcome. I hope he isn't too lightly dressed.

Thank you much. :-)

Heh, no, he isn't. The extremities are covered. xD That's really all I care about there.

By the way, did you plan on claiming Ferdinand as your lizardfolk, then? If you did, you are more than welcome to change his name. That was just the first name that popped in my head, so I used it, thinking he would end up being a side character and that scene would ultimately just fade to the background or something. Glad it didn't, though, and I like how you took it up like that. It was a good kind of unexpected.
