( TEXT ) un: sephiroth

[aonibi]

Good afternoon,

If I may: what are some activities that those ages 14-18 enjoy engaging in here?
If you're in that age range, or have been in the past, what was a typical day like at home for you at that time?

Are you employed here? If so, what is it you do? Does it align with your skills and interests? Did you have any experience when you began it?

Thank you for any answers you can provide.

[endcaller]

Yes, yes, I suppose so.

But there is indeed a surfeit of children on this star.

...Hm.

Now that I have your attention, may I ask you something?

[aonibi]

Yes.

[endcaller]

Your user name. Whence came it?

It makes me think of a dread monster that fells armies with a single swing of its mighty limbs. There must be another meaning that eludes me.

[aonibi]

[ uncomfortably close to what he is-- ]

It's my name. I've never been told where it came from.
You've heard it before?

[endcaller]

In a manner of speaking.

The being I know is Sephirot. Your name possesses an "h". It was the name given to what some believed was the world's very first tree.

[aonibi]

A tree that destroys armies?

[endcaller]

Indeed!

Imbued with the power of prayer the tree came to life as a mighty deity to destroy the invaders who sought to subjugate its people.

[aonibi]

I suppose that's where my name must have come from, then. I've never heard it anywhere else.

[endcaller]

It could be!

And what a grand name it is. Are you fond of it?

[aonibi]

I don't have any particular feelings about it. It's just what I'm called.

[endcaller]

Come now.

Names are important. They're worth having "particular" feelings about, yes?

[aonibi]

Are they? I suppose I'd never considered it.
