What is that, some kind of code?

Who even is this?

-- Sparks Nevada

[line_piece]

It's a pretty standard set of abbreviations. It means I'm a first level white mage, first level illusionist, and I'm looking for an adventuring group. My name is Chiaki Nanami.

[elevatoravatar]

OH! A code. Hrm. 1 Wham will lead to your love of one with large fried gumballs?

No. It must be more insidious than that.

Perhaps if we compare it to the one I know... Ph'nglui mglw'nafh Cthulhu R'lyeh wgah'nagl fhtagn. No I see no numbers in that unless they are to be replaced with the ' mark. No. It seems you have bested me with your code.

[line_piece]

You must be a servant of Xel'lotath. That sounds like something his followers would say. It's a good thing I didn't hear it out loud, but maybe I should burn this letter just to be sure my sanity meter doesn't drop too much.

[comeoutswinging]

I've seen a lot of technical code but... I can't identify any of that other than a quantity...

Sorry, but what does it mean?

~Allenby Beardsley, Gundam Fighter

[line_piece]

Sorry, I thought more people would know that. It means I'm a first level white mage, first level illusionist, looking for an adventuring group to join.

-Chiaki Nanami

P.S. What's a Gundam? It sounds familiar.

[not_most_days]

Some advice. If you're looking to send out a secret message, it's probably not best to send it to everyone. Or at least tell your moogle not to admit to such things.

-James Kidd

[line_piece]

But it's not a secret message.

[umslay]

Who are you? What does this mean?

-Ales

[line_piece]

Maybe I should have written an FAQ first.

[kissthemoons]

      4 GHP 1 SGF 6 KTS

          -- K.

[line_piece]

I've never heard of those classes before. Are they new?

- Chiaki

[her_rose_is_red]

[.......]

I don't know that word.

~Ib

[line_piece]

Which one?

[nonchere]

[What is she even reading right now]

I think you may be missing some letters in your note.

- Celes

[line_piece]

No, I abbreviated them on purpose.

[needsteaplz]

This sort of code seems sort of familiar. LFG...assuming nothing's changed, that still means "looking for group," right?


-Saori Nakagawa

[line_piece]

Yes! You're the first one to understand even part of that!

[dragonflame]

I get the feeling this is short for something, like text speak. But I don't think I quite get it.

- Bloom.

[line_piece]

It is. It means I'm a first level white mage / illusionist looking for a group to join.

[iknowtheconsequences]

I don't know whether to laugh, or rejoice at a sign of someone else from a modern era. So I'll do both. Ryoji Kaji, Scholar/Archer, and, where were you interested in going?

[line_piece]

Wow, you understood the whole thing! You're the first one.

I'm Chiaki Nanami. I'm not sure where to go yet. I just arrived here.

[unitesearthandsky]

Forgive me, but.. Can you say that again, please? I'm guessing these are abbreviations for a shopping list?

-Link of Skyloft

[line_piece]

It's a list of my character classes, actually. White mage and illusionist.

-Chiaki Nanami

P.S. Do you know the other Link, or is the name a coincidence?

Luffy & Chiaki

[gomu_ningen]

[Probably for the best that he cannot read, but having the letter read aloud to him by Pakku still leaves the pirate a bit addled as to what the message could mean.

Not knowing just how to respond, Luffy instead does the practical thing: illustrate a picture of himself.]



[.. Wait a minute.]

[line_piece]

Hello. That's a cute drawing.

[goddessofthesky]

Good Day,

I'm sorry. I'm sure many have already asked but what do you mean?

Thank you,
~Zelda

[line_piece]

Yes, lots of people have.

It means I'm first level in the White Mage and Illusionist classes, and am looking for an adventuring party to join.

-Chiaki

[thegreatninja]

[Getting this letter annoys her to no end.]

SPEAK WORDS!

What are these letters good for, you know your moogles can write these out of you right? So that you can just tell them what to write?
Figure it out before you mail things to people.

-THE GREAT NINJA YUFFIE!

[line_piece]

They're abbreviations. I thought more people would be familiar with them. They save a lot of time and letter space as long as everyone knows what they mean.

[urnotafraid]

A little lost, are you? Or just a little excited about this place?

翔

[line_piece]

No, I'm not lost. I just made some hasty assumptions, that's all.
