Monitor spawns within one of the skyscrapers; within the top-floor suite of a high-rise hotel, to be exact.
They immediately seem curious, examining the various furniture in the room, and admiring the view of the balcony.
>TEACH: Speech, Reading
>SPAWN: "Skills Catalogue" (small book that acts as a dictionary for quite a few teachable skills; anything from drawing to codebreaking to crochet), "Pronouns List" (pamphlet that explains pronoun usage and lists some of the most commonly-used ones)
Monitor is drawn inside from the balcony as two objects spawn in the living room. They lean down to take a look.
>SAY: Alright, let's get started.
The TCP seems startled, wheeling around to find the source of the voice. Their voice comes out, sounding like chains being pulled tight and the soft dripping of liquid. They bombard the unfamiliar speech with curious questions, wondering where they are, and who they are.
>SAY: Tenement. I'm the one who helped spawn you here, not that that's necessarily a good thing. And you can't see me. I'm not here, or anywhere you can actually travel to... mostly. But I can hear you, and see you. So, I--
It asks Tenement to clarify the 'mostly' part.
>SAY: It's nothing you need to worry about. At any rate, I've dropped some things in for you. There's a pronoun pamphlet you should probably go through first. You can pick whatever you want, I just need to know for future reference. After that--
Dropped from where, they ask.
>SAY: Nowhere. I spawned them in, same as you.
They let Tenement know that this is very confusing, and that they'll have a lot more questions for it later, once they've looked over these things.
The blood oath type picks up the pamphlet.
>SAY: ...sure. So, the other thing I dropped--
Monitor says he likes he/him pronouns. He's going to use those.
>SAY: That's fine. And I use it or they. So, that book--
'She/her' also seems cool, he says. Maybe he'll try those later.
But 'she' and 'he' should look more different, he thinks. It's too easy to get them mixed up.
Maybe Tenement should think about updating these, he says.
Elsewhere, Tenement clutches their forehead.
>SAY: ...Noted. The book I dropped lists out some other skills I can teach you. Keep in mind that I'm most likely limited in how much I can teach you, and how many things I can spawn in at a time. I also have to balance between things you want, and things I think you need, so choose wisely.
Monitor picks up the little book, skimming through it.
When he's done, he points to a couple of skills as if ordering from a menu.
He'll have these for right now, he says.
>SAY: Alright. At least one of those is useful.
>TEACH: Rock Climbing, Table Tennis
He's going to need a table for table tennis, he says.
>SAY: You don't have anyone to play with yet. How are you going to play?
Monitor says he's got it covered, seeming surprised at Tenement. He asks if Tenement knows anything about table tennis.
>SAY: It's tennis. At a table. That's as much as I will ever need to know.
>SPAWN: Table Tennis Set
Already knowing full-well how all this very technical equipment works, he folds the other side of the table upwards to make a little wall for himself, and begins practicing.
