At last, what was lost is recovered. A thousand pardons for my lengthy silence: it's a delicate system that we depend upon for our communication. I hope that nothing crucial had happened by writing.

Sumi-senseilăoshī, if I may ask an unusual question: is there any special kind of soap that you use for your hair? The Sphere's newest antics are proving very tiresome.

If they didn't assume everyone here would be human-shaped, I wouldn't.

[getsome-sleep.livejournal.com]

That is, indeed, a different case altogether. Do you differ from that norm very sharply?

[azhdarchidae.livejournal.com]

Hmm. Yeah, probably by about as much as is possible without changing the number of limbs or that whole bilateral symmetry thing.

[getsome-sleep.livejournal.com]

My sympathies. I see how that must make any number of things unusually difficult - including writing.

Hey, I manage. [Since she can't brace her hand against the page, the marker has to be held directly perpendicular to it, or directly above rather than at an angle.]

[getsome-sleep.livejournal.com]

That is evident; I merely note that that is admirable.

[Pause.]

I can't tell if you're being sincere or otherwise. Limitations of the medium, I guess.

Assuming it's the first, thanks.

[getsome-sleep.livejournal.com]

A fair point; I assure you that I am sincere. Adaptability is crucial for our lives here.
