A Warning [Shortly after liminal change]

[itsananimalthing]

Hey. So noticed somethin' a little off about the tea-rivers or whatever they are. They're in a particular pattern. Pretty much exactly the same pattern as a little town on Earth we went to that almost got us all eaten by tentacle shit-heads.

Think we might need to prep some eldritch defense and memory restoration and shit, if we're goin' back to fuckin' Harrogate. I got both, in case anybody was wonderin' or wanted someone to hit them up with either one once Jaunt gets goin'.

I can also restore an Infiltrator to their original self, and would be willing to teach those who have the necessary grounding in manipulating the network how to do so.

But perhaps a little elaboration on what to watch out for if we are returning to that specific version of that town would be in order?

[itsananimalthing]

Anythin' magic or supernatural's a fair bet it's gonna be dangerous, there wasn't real magic or shit like that in the world, just this. Anything that looks funny in liminal space. Tentacles are a big thing. Anybody who's seen my little pet snake demon has seen an eldritch creature, he's just too tiny to mess anybody up. So anything that looks or feels to you like that, keep away from. Strange symbols. Anywhere darker than it looks like it should be-- they don't like light or warmth. Keep an eye out for anything that looks like it might be a cult, or people who start acting funny.

Acting strangely in which way? Are the victims of - corruption? indoctrination? - likely to be as dangerous as willing converts?

[itsananimalthing]

Willing converts are corrupted or indoctrinated, too. These things're basically made of twisted shit. But it depends on the person. We had some people corrupted by it last time, and they were basically harmless, but had some other who were. Sometimes it's pretty obvious, sometimes it ain't. Just gotta keep on your toes.

[Which he knows isn't saying much, and is basically good advice all the time. He sounds a little frustrated when he adds:]

It's hard to explain, sometimes, when it's all head-stuff. I can show you direct if you want to come by.

[brokers]

Actually, it all sounds remarkably familiar. But I believe I will take you up on that offer.

[itsananimalthing]

You know where I am. I ain't leavin' for a while, since I got a handful of people who're gonna be lookin' for me.
