[This was unfamiliar technology to Lin, so before she tried making a post, she read the manual from start to finish. This "smartphone" was MUCH more complicated than the ham radio in the interceptor, but she eventually figured it out.]

Hi, I'm Bai Lin. I have a question. I've got that most of us are from different worlds. It's weird, but any time I talk to someone it becomes more and more obvious.

But I'm noticing a trend from talking to you all.

How many people here DON'T come from places where a nuclear war destroyed most of the world's population before you were born?

I was a bastard. They figured it would be better to not have me around, reminding them of past infidelities, and the temple always needs more people.

Honestly, if you ask me who my dad was the first person that comes to mind is the old abbot. I've only met my biological parents like once and it was super awkward.

I can imagine. I'd've made it way more than awkward for them, if that was the story they'd told me.

I can't really get myself worked up over them enough to care. They're just not part of my life.

...Sounds like a healthy way to handle it, anyway.
