[Jaunt] Further Warnings [August 28]

[helborn]

Had a dream. A tiger with a mask, in a zoo. There's a mirror under the mask.

The tiger is hungry, but on our side.

There's another tiger in a cage, sleeping. It has the same mirror-mask.

We need to find that cage, or someone's going to get eaten. And we need to find it soon.

We don't have time, we're going to get eaten if we don't act.

[There's nothing for a few long moments before more 'text' appears.]

I have a bad feeling I'm picking up prophetic stuff somehow. This is not what I wanted. I would like to return this ability for a different one, please.

[That's fair. She definitely earned it.]

And we can't just go to the zoo. I don't think this town even has a zoo.

...Do you think it's even someone who's still alive?

[helborn]

With my track record? Probably not. I'm still trying to see what's going on with the local ghosts... haven't gotten a lot of useful info out of them other than a few names.

[haremtrap]

Did you know some of the travelers are ghosts?

I think most people did but I just picked up on it when I met one of them in a dream so maybe I'm letting you know something new.

[helborn]

Yeah, I did. But I can see ghosts normally, so it's not like I'm surprised.

[haremtrap]

Oh.

I can't. It's super fucking creepy knowing there's something that could be anywhere around me and I can't see it. Or hear it or smell it or anything.

[helborn]

... I mean I guess it would be? I was more surprised when I learned people couldn't see them. I used to get mad and think people were just ignoring them.

[haremtrap]

Knowing things are there is like, My Thing. I know people who can reverse time or breath fire, and I got stuck with super senses. And now even THOSE are failing me!

[helborn]

I've got weird senses too, but they came later. But it sucks, yeah. Last Jaunt I got stuck investigating and then got my head back in the game and I couldn't do anything and it sucked so much.

[haremtrap]

I hate this stupid town.

[helborn]

... I don't mind it, other than the eldritch stuff. The ghosts are fine. But I know my preferences are weird.
