[Sera sounded a little awkward as she spoke, still not used to using the psychic connection she shared with the other Travelers. The fact that finding herself in an awkward situation is what prompted her to reach out for advice in the first place probably didn't help.]

I knew the Trumps could make people believe they're someone else, but I didn't think it would be like that. I mean, I didn't think they could make us feel differently about things than we normally do. Especially not about other people... Um, does anyone know what you're supposed to do if you thought you were good friends with someone, and then remembered you've never even talked with them before? I want to go talk to them, but I'm not sure how to do it.

Good. I have the feeling that's not an entirely common line of reasoning.

[Whether she means the possibility of their being future groups, or the anger at the inevitability of that being a threat is up in the air.]

[There is a pause as Raidou mulls another thought over. When he "speaks" again, his words come slowly, as if he's thinking "aloud." Or at least "aloud" as defined everywhere but the psychic network.]

So far, all the Jaunts I've been on have seemingly had benevolent goals, although we're never there to see the long-term results. Have they ever asked for something less benevolent?

[Although what's benevolent for some may not be for others; Raidou's seen that enough in his dealings with the demons in the Capital.]

I'd say 'not obviously malicious', if I had to classify them. For all we know of what happens after we leave, we're being used to pull out a pin that will assure disaster a decade on. Anything that can engineer this must be capable of a long game.

That's what worries me. Or one of the things that worries me, at any rate.

The potential consequences of our actions? Or the fact that we don't know what they're meant to be?

Both of those, truthfully.

It does make deciding how to navigate the Jaunts more difficult, that's for certain.

At least, when we have the luxury of choice.
capital_asset: (Not remotely impressed with you.)

Or the luxury of time.

Time, at least, is a little easier to steal.
capital_asset: (This bodes.)

True.
