Kepler sighed. Wiping a small amount of perspiration from her forehead, she twirled her finger around a few loose strands and tucked them back into the messy bun she had managed in the underground humidity.
*Tink*
*Tink*
*Tink*
And so, without any further suspense, let’s cover the facts.
1. Kepler was underground.
2. Kepler had lost track of how long she had been underground.
3. Kepler was looking for the lost civilization of molemen.
4. Kepler was just about to find it.
—-Only, just then there was a crackle.
A pained smile flashed on her cheeks for a moment.
If I knew I’d be talking to myself as much as I am I would’ve just crafted you as a coconut.
Kepler furrowed her brow as she fiddled with a crystal and a few knobs of what looked like a tinker-style walkie-talkie, then giving up, she attached it to her belt harness and looked at the wallface in front of her. Unbeknownst to her, the device, the kepphone, had finally picked up a signal and managed to hold it. Shakily, yes, but just well enough for her to stay on the line.
And, unbeknownst to Hanno, the receiving party, Ms. Kepler had snuck another one of these devices into Ghast’s voidspace in what was planned to be an elaborate prank to make it seem like Ghast was talking. Kepler had just never happened to find the time to put it into action…
Still, maybe her old friend heard something. If not—-
Kepler chuckled as she raised her arms and stretched her back.
And then, picking up a pickaxe-like contraption, she continued to dig, singing an off-key version of Proud Mary—composed by someone who remembered next to none of the lyrics—all the while:
~Oyo~
~Oyooooyoyoyo~
~Oyooooyoyoyoyoyo~?
HelloOOooOOOo is this thing working? Working? Working? ~~~Day… uhm… well~~~ I've lost count~~~ and no response~ what a shame~! ~~I think even I'm starting to doubt my genius a little here~ well~ what can I say~? ~I'm humble~!
Kepler sighed. Wiping a small amount of perspiration from her forehead, she twirled her finger around a few loose strands and tucked them back into the messy bun she had managed in the underground humidity.
Phew~ I sure am glad the great witch gave me a crash course on mushrooms~ this would have taken so~ so~ so~ SOOOO much longer if I'd had to keep returning to the surface for supplies~ they glow~ they explode~ and they don't taste like mold~~~~ but still~ I do miss a fresh breeze~ ~~~~Ah the sufferings of the the intellectuiwazowecallits~ or in other words~ those of us suffering for our art~! Or maybe I'm suffering -from- it at this point~ heh~

Muhuhuhu~ is that I a connection I sense~?
Hellllooooo~ ground control (literally) to Major Hanno~ oyoooo~? ~~~Are you there Hanno~ Copy~ Copy~ Over~~~~Over dover~
Nothing~? Nothing~ Haaaaah~
A pained smile flashed on her cheeks for a moment.
If I knew I’d be talking to myself as much as I am I would’ve just crafted you as a coconut.
Coordinates blah blah, yada yada, zoopa toopa, but real numbers for the person listening~ well, if you're out there anyway~! And if you are~! I hope you're doing just fine~!

----well~ it's not like i've ever disliked the sound of my own voice~

Big wheel keeps on turnin~! Proud Mary~ something~ something~! Rolling~!
"Hay~! Hay~! The prime-time eccentric genius is here! You need look no further! Welcome!"
A sharp mind expanding ever outward in 9 different directions, Kepler is an inquisitive, excitable, and bubbly sort of person who revels in all of life's interactions. Prone to floating off in the wind, she can often become lost in her own little world without warning. Because she tends to see the world through a unique lens, she'll be left puzzled with any of reality's incongruencies no matter how obvious.
Even so, Kepler is a remarkably even-minded individual, so she can work well with most anyone. She values logic just as much as a bleeding heart. In times of crisis she is an able counselor and an effective subleader but should otherwise never be left fully in charge as she lacks charisma and will unknowingly work others to the point of breaking.
Overall, as someone who carries the nickname of 'Ditzy Genius' with a sense of pride, Kepler can give off a sense of needing to be looked after. And yet, her habitual displays of insight seem to imply that this demeanor could perhaps be something of a ruse. If so, she is certainly an annoying person. Though the end result is the same, feigned helplessness or no, Kepler deeply appreciates your patience as a true friend <3.
Positive: Nurturing, Playful, Curious, Accepting, Confident, Calm
Negative: Mischievous, Eccentric, Nosey, Laissez-Faire, Self-Important, Devilish
