This is X. Mrs. Harker has already suggested that we share information concerning our stay here and the changes that we've noticed. I have suggested that once we have gathered enough information we can hold a meeting to discuss our findings and figure out a few solutions to some of the issues we're facing.

[ Like the randomness of food, or the rather strange lack of patterns for the Stacks. ]

But first, due to the nature of where I'm from, I have what you can call an understanding of extraordinary abilities granted through outside forces. I've noticed a change in my own capabilities, and I would like to know if others have noticed their own changes as well.

You don't have to tell us what those changes are. All I want to know if any one else has noticed that they have gained a new talent that allows more control inside the Library.

[With the power of 'Resource Manipulation'? Erich has been able to extract some items from some of the books, even if it started almost casually when he wondered what a 'marshmallow' was. The result? A sad, tasteless pillow that dissolved in his mouth far too quickly.

With no ability to compare it with the original, Erich finds no love for it. Other items he had been curious about have been a complete disappointment, but this isn't a space to discuss that.]

I have been able to summon small items from some of the books I found. As someone with limited capibilities? This is not something I had ever been capable of een if my kin is often able to conjure what they require from their surrounding aether.

I assumed this was something part of the library's powers as a whole, am I supposed to believe that's not the case?

[ Hello you also get the [ Unmute ] reply because X really isn't looking for a new pen. ]

If it's not something you could do before, I think it's a Library-granted ability. Which means... I think we need to work up from pulling small, incomplete items to actual functioning ones in order to make life here a little better. As is, we don't really have much to work with.

[He wishes he could do that. But for now he can just summon stuff from his books.]

Incomplete? I wouldn't know, nothing I picked so far was something I'm familiar with. Give me a moment, please.

[He takes a long break at that point, only answering after a decent moment.]

I can confirm the items I summon aren't... complete. So to speak. The herbal tea I summoned, described to have a fragrant citrus aroma in the book, tastes like plain water.

[defyingreality]

Hm, so then we are looking at figuring out what we need to do in order to make things more complete.

But thanks for testing it out. It helps, knowing where to start from in a new venture.

One would suppose that being fully aware of what something is supposed to be like... they would be able to summon things as faithful as possible to the real deal. Still, something is missing, taste in its case...

Ah, it's a pleasure. We're all new here and I'm more than glad to assist. I do suppose your 'power' comes with the ability to bring your voice across instead of having to write?
