[So, after a month or so of study in shifts and things that mess with brains, Molly's ready to try an experiment. She attempts to say each of these in their regular languages: Spanish, Latin, French, and Chinese. All she gets for her efforts are a few words squeaking through Luceti's translation and a headache.]

I'm going to habla en Spanish.

Next to try nonnullus Latin.

I don't know many words in French but here it goes: belle, thanks, Camembert.

...Kung Pao Chicken.

[She waits a bit for the headache to fade and then makes a general post.]

Two months in this place, and I feel like I'm still just getting my feet wet. I know everyone's getting adjusted with this whole new 'cycle,' but I wonder if a few people wouldn't mind answering a question: What language am I speaking right now?

[And in a bit, Molly will blow off her normal time at the library to enjoy the warm day and glorious weather in a pair of stonewashed cut-off shorts that are just a bit too short and a plain white men's T-shirt. She's roaming in and out of town, until eventually she finds a good hill to meditate on. Two months? Caution's getting thin. It's time to try and contact one of these filial spirits and just... start talking.]

With how many different people there are here from a variety of worlds, it could be possible that it's just our perception. We hear and read what we want to. Or at least what is the most convenient for us.

...though it's just a theory.

It seems like a good theory.

[In that it matches up with her own - what she thinks and what she's observed. So strange...]

It's something I've thought about occasionally.

So. What got you so curious about how the communications work?

[Oh, I'm looking for a place to start understanding how they manipulate our minds and figured looking at the commonality was the best place to start.

...]

It just seems pretty amazing, doesn't it? That we're from so many different places and yet we can all understand each other perfectly.

Well it is something that's fairly impressive. If I were to guess, I would assume it's likely magic of some kind or maybe even psychological? I'm not sure, but they have shown to be able to alter our memories, and bodies quite easily.
