[walkabout] Seriously?

[leftbehindagain]

Dragons? Really?

[As far as tone is distinguishable on the network, that's muttered, and very, very frustrated - but anyone who remembers Misericordia probably understands. When Naoki resumes, it's at a much more normal volume and tone.]

Anyway, we might as well get a check-in going. This is Naoki. We are definitely not in Harrogate, unless something went very, very wrong with Earth's climate since the last time.

If it turns out we're missing a substantial chunk of people, I can try reaching out to the others later this week.

Yeah. I dunno if that counts as lookin' on the bright side, but ... it's sure as hell some side.

I'll take the lack of mages, at least. How well the dragon situation's going to go, we'll just have to see.

I'm glad neither of us is doing this alone, though. It's going to be a difficult adjustment even with you right here to keep up the 'this isn't Misericordia' reminders.

[Yes, Kanji, he means you specifically.]

Re: private/protected 5ever

[truerevelation]

And here we were brushin' up on spells...

But yeah. I've got Piyo right here bein' all not, uh, Misericordia-y, but ... ain't fair on it to have to try 'n keep me from. Y'know.

Noping off to Liminal for the duration? I know the feeling.

[truerevelation]

Well. Wasn't gonna go that far, but ... heh. Coulda still been awkward.

[leftbehindagain]

Well, no, that's not your style. We also don't have any precedent for what happens to a split Liminal if something invades one side of it on a Harrogate scale, so it's probably better not to hang out there any longer than we have to, this time.

[Say what you will about the Illuminants, but they at least didn't turn Liminal off.]

I'm glad you're here.

[truerevelation]

[After a slight pause-]

...yeah. You too, man.

[leftbehindagain]

Chie's here somewhere. If she's herself, maybe we should all three do some magic poking or something, if we can find a private enough space for it.

[truerevelation]

... y'know what, why not? Let's get our feet around here first, and if things are lookin' good...

[leftbehindagain]

I think we could all use it, as long as there's some relative calm.

[That it continues demonstrably not ditching Kanji, especially when Helena's chimed in on the check-in, is a bonus, really.]
