Now that I can have everyone's attention, a little good news.

Since Jules and I both needed the occasional break from the Bronze Age, I'm proud to announce Liminal Intranet is now up and running. Even I'm not good enough to hook it up to proper Internet, as that would involve punching dimensional holes that are probably beyond our reach, but it should at least be a boon to Project Infopool.

Servers are in my rooms, so they won't be going anywhere even if I do. You'll have to provide your own computers, though.

Oh, he's not my cat, he's Naoto's. Followed her back from Rome.

Raidou's cat hangs out in my rooms sometimes, mostly because I feed her, but I don't think she'd hang around long enough for macro-worthy pictures.

[haremtrap]

Any cat can become meme-worthy. You've just got to believe.

[claudiometer]

It's not the cat herself I'm doubting.

[haremtrap]

What are you doubting, then?

[She dug up her phone and tried to turn it on only to find that]

Oh hell the battery's dead.

[claudiometer]

Anyone's ability to get decent pictures of her. [She's pretty sure it wouldn't occur to Raidou to try, and he's maybe the only one who'd stand a decent chance.]

And the hardiness of battery life, apparently.

[haremtrap]

What the hell there's no outlets in here either. Stupid...16th century Italian villa.

[thornsofmalkav]

Depending on the kind of charger it uses, I'll open up my old studio apartment for an hour and you can charge there.

Also, Leo picked up a magic recharging wand on another planet once. He can help with that too.

[haremtrap]

It's an iPhone. Standard MicroUSB.

Leonardo da Vinci can recharge my smart phone with a magic wand.

[Because some things bear repeating.]

[thornsofmalkav]

Oh good. My current one's an iPhone too. I always used to have Android because they were cheaper, but when the Prince of New York paid me and my vampire bros a thousand bucks each to torch a Giovanni warehouse I decided to treat myself. And my old apartment's a room I created and not Leo, so that lets me put a cord in.

And yeah, Leo can totally recharge smart phones with his wand. Although I guess technically it's more a sufficiently advanced technology wand, but you know. Kinda indistinguishable.

[haremtrap]

You are bringing up more questions than you are answering my dude.

[thornsofmalkav]

... a lot of us have weird lives before we come here. It's at a point where Leonardo is one of our baseline normal people.

[haremtrap]

Is...is my life weird? I think it was, before I came here. I was just used to it so it seemed normal.

Going to a specialized school for monster hunters because the alien parasite fused to my spine gives me super powers? That's not normal, right?

[thornsofmalkav]

Nope. That's weird. You're in good company for that.

[haremtrap]

I'm having an identity crisis here, man.

[thornsofmalkav]

Sorry, dude.

[claudiometer]

Yeah, options for recharging things are kinda slim, unfortunately.

[haremtrap]

There's even a plug in my room, but it doesn't work!

[thornsofmalkav]

Yeah. You have to imagine the actual cords in the wall when you room create. Then they'll work because they're part of the room--just like the lights do--but putting a new thing in doesn't work so well.

[haremtrap]

God I don't even know how to begin to do that. I can...sort of make portals?

[thornsofmalkav]

Portals are good. Can you make little pocket portals to store your stuff in yet? Usually you need to figure out that and then how to make objects from liminal material to figure out how to make rooms in liminal space.

[haremtrap]

I'm...working on it.

[thornsofmalkav]

If you need help, you can ask on the network for lessons. People are usually glad to teach the newer Travelers.

[That sounds like a challenge]

[claudiometer]

[Go right ahead, but don't come crying to her or Raidou if you get clawed.]
