Ah, we gotta explain umbrella messages, huh.

[time to try... mahalen mango]

Re: [ CONCRETE ]

[socialcapital]

Straight up this is the best mango you've ever tasted. Possibly the best fruit you've ever tasted. It's fresh and ripe and sweet, like the platonic ideal of a mango.

"Umbrella messages?"

Re: [ CONCRETE ]

[worldlyafflictions]

[oh no i've ruined mangoes for myself]

Re: [ CONCRETE ]

[socialcapital]

It's really good. Jackson has also been totally distracted with mango joy.

Re: [ CONCRETE ]

[worldlyafflictions]

[forelorn] this is a really good mango...

Re: [ CONCRETE ]

[socialcapital]

"It's really good! It must have been just in season or something..."

Re: [ CONCRETE ]

[worldlyafflictions]

Like it was straight off the tree.. Haah... Thanks for sharin'~ [to his forkful of fruit] I'll never forget you.

Re: [ CONCRETE ]

[socialcapital]

"Does every new member get a perfect welcome mango?"

Re: [ CONCRETE ]

[worldlyafflictions]

Naw, that's my secret technique for redoin' a first impression... It's good if ya feel welcome though! I'm here ta be a resource whenever ya'd like ta start tappin' inta the 'network' part of Cnet.

Re: [ CONCRETE ]

[socialcapital]

"Well, this is a much better first impression, so I'll pretend the earlier thing didn't happen."

Re: [ CONCRETE ]

[worldlyafflictions]

'What earlier thing~'--right?

I don't wanna take up all your mornin' with an unplanned visit though. Introductions made, apologift received--anythin' ya want me ta look into for ya? Oh, ya need my contact info, huh?

[Hopping up, one hand automatically picking up the plate if it's empty of mango now, the other patting himself down for his phone--]

Re: [ CONCRETE ]

[worldlyafflictions]

[In his enthusiasm to both put the plate in the sink for Jackson and get out his phone to like text him a contact card, he manages to swipe the fern that was on the counter and it drops off the side--] Gah! [Loren also drops to the floor behind the counter, attempting to catch all three items, oops]

Re: [ CONCRETE ]

[socialcapital]

"Ah! Careful! You okay?"

Re: [ CONCRETE ]

[worldlyafflictions]

I’m okay!

[his phone has clattered to the floor, the plate is spinning on its rim to a stop but didn’t shatter, the fern is awkwardly caught by its fronds in one hand and the pot supported by the other]

[he’s decided he’s just gonna break a frond or two off and drop them into a lil stealth field on the floor, he’ll get them when he grabs his phone]

Re: [ CONCRETE ]

[socialcapital]

He comes around the counter to help you collect stuff.

"Sorry, sorry, the clutter couldn't have helped."

Re: [ CONCRETE ]

[worldlyafflictions]

No no, I’m pretty sure that was all me. Ya definitely need a lil umbrella on this guy ta protect 'im from misfortune, haha. [Setting fern on the counter minus a frond or two]

Re: [ CONCRETE ]

[socialcapital]

You got the fern fronds!

"Is that what umbrellas do...?"

Re: [ CONCRETE ]

[worldlyafflictions]

It’s a little cheesy, but handin’ somebody an umbrella expresses care, right? ‘Stay dry out there!’ [time to explain the intricacies of umbrella symbolism]

Re: [ CONCRETE ]

[socialcapital]

He nods along like he's learning important facts. In this moment jackson is kouhai.

Re: [ CONCRETE ]

[worldlyafflictions]

[Jackson is *kouhai!

* Loren Haze has not officially joined the Cirrus Network and is not a member of the Weather Rapport and has not attended any official trainings. This portion of Loren’s heart run is not sponsored.]

Re: [ CONCRETE ]

[socialcapital]

Loren is... false senpai...

Re: [ CONCRETE ]

[worldlyafflictions]

[False senpai 🫵]

[But he’s happy to chatter away and does know plenty enough from being a Cadet that any org stuff sounds legit and any cultural stuff is probably just true. He did make getting ready to leave noises though so he’ll start making his way to the door, maybe helpfully straightening a pile here or there cuz that seems like something Eugene would do, if he’s channeling him for Normal Guy Smalltalk]

Re: [ CONCRETE ]

[socialcapital]

He is allowed to leave without protest! Heist successful.

Re: [ CONCRETE ]

[worldlyafflictions]

[Heist successful! Does leave real contact info before he skedaddles back to the ghost party.]

Re: [ CONCRETE ]

[socialcapital]

Harmonious Song waves hi to him.

"Welcome back~"
