My theory is that even though all of us came from different dimensions, those dimensions might have some similarities. There is a language spoken on some planets in my world, that may have a similarity to yours. I use it when conducting business, sometimes. So if you're saying your name has the characters for weather... does that mean the "hi" is written with the character that can also mean "sun?"

[ There's nothing to really gain from this kind of theory. It won't help them escape, but it's still a thought exercise worth pursuing. ]

And I'm familiar with orange topaz. I wear one as part of my uniform, but I'm sure it'd look good on you, too.
