An offer to the Travelers

[awondrousplace]

Hello, fellow Travelers. For once, I am not addressing everyone in regards to an entertainment of some sort.

Gentlemen, and those without a female reproductive system, you might want to tune me out from here on. Ladies, and anyone with a female reproductive system, I have something for you.

A few Liminal Spaces back, I realized that no one here has made any sort of contraceptives for those who might wish to engage in activities that would result in unfortunate consequences.

[For all that she adored Christina eventually... it was an unfortunate consequence.]

I have made a liquid that will halt conception for three months. It is completely reversible if you ever wish to bear a child, but it will prevent both pregnancy and menstruation.

For those who live in an earlier age and do not understand, I am happy to talk you through what goes on, and what my concoction does.

If you would like some, please, by all means, come to my rooms. My door is always open, and I will not ask any questions of you.

[haremtrap]

Dude. Yes please. Free me from monthly cramps.

[awondrousplace]

It is quite the relief to not have to have a monthly, I must say. I have never been fond of the pain and mess.

[callyourname]

[ Apparently wings of freedom becomes liquids of freedom sometimes... ...]

That sounds much better than other options.

[Because it easily stops two things that Mikasa will gladly let it stop.]

[awondrousplace]

I certainly hope so. I only wish to make my fellow travelers' lives easier.

[claudiometer]

You're a hero to us all.

[If anything, Claudia's surprised it took Helena this long. On the other hand, no one was about to spontaneously combust this time. Less of a rush.]

[awondrousplace]

I do what I can, Claudia, dear. As much as we all love Baby Rose, I do not think we need more Liminal Children.

And I am certain that attempting to deal with menstruation here is more than a bit perilous.

[starshaper]

[ well... Mamoru isn't here yet, so she's not going to do anything with the baby making part but the other part is uh, very welcome. ]

You were able to make a liquid like that? [ how is that even possible? No, better explain that to anyone who actually understands about making liquids and other things like that. More importantly, sorry everyone, but --] THAT'S AMAZING!!

[awondrousplace]

I am glad I can help, my dear. It is a miserable time for ladies, and if I can make it go away, it is definitely worth the effort.

[goestoextremes]

That is seriously one of the most amazing things I've ever heard of in my entire life.

[awondrousplace]

Contraception in general is very popular in my current time, but most of it only lightens menstruation. I find it much better to make it go away altogether if one is not using that particular process.

[thornsofmalkav]

Helena Wells, you're my fucking hero.

[awondrousplace]

I do try, darling.

So, dinner tonight, then? I'll have some ready for you.

[Filtered]

[crouching_sin]

Obviously I don't have any need for that sort of thing [this time] but if you need an extra set of hands for lab work with that, let me know. I know how much of a pain that sort of thing is.

... Both the lab work and the thing you're preventing, that is.

[awondrousplace]

Oh, that would be fantastic! I would love some assistance in the lab. Everything goes better with help.

Have you lived with quite a lot of women in the past, or are you simply a student of anatomy?

[Filtered but not locked]

[naturaltwohands]

[One guy decided not to tune it out. His mental voice feels anxious.]

I have heard only flashes on the network about this subject, and only a little more about this from a dear friend back home. Even if I am not a human woman... is there knowledge I should know about such things? Is there things I can do to ease the experience?

[Look, Drizzt is a little concerned about this whole bleeding and pain and cramping thing. And more concerned that he doesn't know anything about it. What if something goes wrong! Can something go wrong? He really doesn't know! But he can't just go around ignoring suffering if it's around him or something. LOOK HE HAS NO IDEA. N O N E. Wait. Should he be asking this? Is it wrong to ask?]

U-Unless it is imprudent and rude to ask such a thing, of course.

[awondrousplace]

It is certainly not rude to know what others are going through. In fact, I wish there were more men who wished to understand what we women go through.

Unfortunately, however, there is very little that one can do to alleviate the symptoms of menstruation other than an entire stoppage of it entirely. There are pain relievers that can help with pain and cramping, and some put either cold or warm temperatures on the affected area.

[eldritchwheelies]

Dude. You rock.

[awondrousplace]

I do try, darling. I have always wanted to be able to make people's lives easier.

[otomechapilot]

(Claudia may be getting the telepathic equivalent of seeing Sara blush so hot it's thermonuclear.)

I'll... I'll keep it in mind if it becomes. Uh. Necessary.

Thank you.

[awondrousplace]

Certainly. My door is always open, and if you have any questions about it, I am certainly glad to answer them.

Private

[rustyhonesty]

[Okay, this is embarrassing. Really. Really embarrassing.]

I... uh. I may not be a girl normally, but since I have a girl form in one of the jaunt worlds... last time there were no problems, even if I spent the whole jaunt as a girl, but... uh.

Do you think it would be safe to keep one in hammerspace just in case we return there..?

Private

[awondrousplace]

There is no shame in wishing to be certain, darling. If you wish to prevent such issues, then we will do that.

I have been told that no time passes in Hammerspace, so I believe that storing something for that eventuality would be just fine.

[givetheslip]

[Well. That's, ah. Blunt.]

How does this potion work? Is it made of herbs?

[awondrousplace]

Chemicals, mostly. If I truly put my mind to it, I could possibly come up with something similar just using plants, but things are so much easier with more modern methods.

[senpaidol]

Oh. Uh. I'd just been kind of assuming that can't happen in Liminal Space because uh...stuff disappears when you're not thinking about it.

Sign me up anyway, though. The other part sounds super-convenient and maybe some day I'll actually be able to have fun while I'm Investigating. Or even Infiltrating in a decade where not everyone keeps a 12-pack of condoms on them...

[awondrousplace]

Now that is a thought. I had not actually thought about that before.

Of course, darling. By all means have your fun. I have always encouraged women to go out and get whatever they wish. However much of it they wish.
