A few hours into the Jaunt

[rustyhonesty]

I've never done this before, but there's a first time for everything.

It's about time to do a check-in to see who are investigating - or at least have an infiltrator persona. My name is Jean Kirstein and... I don't investigate very often.

Apparently, I arrived with an ID that says I'm 21. So I guess age up, or down, is normal in this Jaunt. I also got a surprise guitar and seem to know how to play it...? Anyone else had something like that happen to them?

I won't ask if anyone has an idea of what we're supposed to do, since it's so early on the Jaunt... but it's good to keep your eyes open for any information that seems important.

That makes sense.

Uh, dumb question. When you make the gold, it's just gold, right?

[thornsofmalkav]

Yeah, why wouldn't it be?

[sees_red]

I knew someone at home who did... weird stuff... with gold.

[thornsofmalkav]

... how weird?

[sees_red]

Giant, living, molten statue weird.

[thornsofmalkav]

Okay, that's super weird.

[sees_red]

Yeah. Just wanted to make sure.

[thornsofmalkav]

... I think Zed and Right's world has giant monsters too, for what it's worth. I dunno if they're made of gold, though. I mean, they're a lot more likely to be made of trains or darkness or really shiny things.

[sees_red]

That sounds about right. I mean, as much as any of this.

[thornsofmalkav]

... okay, but, does your world have people dressed in spandex and masks fighting the giant monsters? Possibly with trains?

[sees_red]

No. Definitely no. No trains, no spandex.

There are, uh, people who fight monsters, but they have armor and robot dinosaurs.

[thornsofmalkav]

Huh.

You should probably talk to Zed anyway at some point. Or Right. Or, hell, the yolo ninjas. I think maybe they're the same kind of thing as Right, only more ninja. Or in Kinji's case, cowboy ninja.

[sees_red]

I met the cowboy ninja and his armored buddy. That guy definitely seemed like the same kind of thing as the Power Rangers back home.

[thornsofmalkav]

... Power Rangers.

Well, Right's the same thing as them, only I think train themed? Trains are big in his and Zed's neck of the woods.

That and he's really ten, only he turns into a teenager to fight bad guys. Something like that.

[sees_red]

Power... Traingers?

I guess it could work that way where I'm from, too. Nobody knows who they are.

[thornsofmalkav]

I think it's supposed to be Express Traingers or something like that, but I like your version better.
