A tactful time after Rose's yelling session...

[truerevelation]

Alright.

So ... I ain't gotta tell anyone where we are this time, and from the stuff people were sayin' on the network, returning here ain't the biggest surprise anyone's ever had. Even if we did get the red carpet bit... Yeah, this is Questing Country - magical kinda Liminal Space dreamland. The Oracles over at the table are the best guys to ask about what this place is.

But I figure we still need to work out who is and isn't actually us. Except, uh. Wash.

[That was psychic shouting and his ears are still ringing from it somehow, OK.]

So this is Kanji checking in. Give us a yell if you're hearing this? How you're doing, all that stuff. Or if you've got powers up and goin' here... anyone else been species switched, too?

...But, uh. If you see a guy who looks like my plain Hecatite form, that ain't me. That's my old overlay, and I think he wanted his powers back or something. Hell if I know what mine are right now.

I’m here and the Champion of Pilots, surprising like no one. Which lets me summon a pilotable battlesuit made of love. Stop me if you’ve heard that one before.

This place feels exactly like a dream. They aren’t kidding about that part.

Private, Psi Protection I

Must be weird to be back here, especially with an old Overlay running around. You doing alright?

[ninjayeehaw]

Kinji checkin' in. I know Yakumo's infiltratin' an' I know we both got some a' these new power ups - problem is, I ain't sure what it's s'posed t'be called fer me, or how it's s'posed t'work.

[The perils of future visions, he supposes.]

An' Rodeo still can't talk so he can't exactly tell me neither, but I think he's one a' them spirit animals here.

[haremtrap]

Feel like shit, but still me. I dunno how useful I’ll be this time around.

[youandyoualone]

This is Anafiel Delaunay checking in. Since arriving here, I seem to have regained the body that I possessed at roughly the age of twenty, as well as having my normal suit of clothing replaced by hooded robes, and I am now in the company of a vixen named Fidélité who informs me that I am the Oracle of Oaths.

[thornsofmalkav]

Hi, Thorne here? Um, which you knew, Kanji, since I just did an announcement of my own. But maybe not everyone was listening.

Anyway. I'm here, I just figured out how to completely de-infiltrate myself from my former half-infiltration into an Investigator body of my own and that former half-infiltration is kind of here twice because Hecatites are hella long-lived. Also I was her twice before. Basically, anyone who sees me in rock form isn't seeing me but one of her.




... also the older version of her might kinda sorta know about Infiltration now as a hazard of the whole full de-infiltration thing and I am very sorry.

[goestoextremes]

Hello, Korra here. Still human, still same age and looks too. I guess I shouldn't be surprised that I seem to be an Oracle and not a champion like I'm sure I would have been a few years ago... Umm. Not sure how this whole Oracle of Harmony stuff is gonna go but apparently that's a thing, so only time will tell. Surprised it's not Bridges or Elements or Balance or Conflict resolution-- okay, it might be kind of like that last one but at least I am not introducing myself as that --

Oh and hey, Naga is the most adorable and cutest polar bear cub ever while we are here.

[tookashirototheknee]

Hey, this is Matt, and I seem to be the Adversary of Space. I don't get a cute animal, just this really annoying metal ball that won't shut up about space.

Shiro's himself too, and he has a phoenix. I think he said he was Champion of Dawn or something like that.

[awitchdidit]

I am still Beatrice, with my full memories of Traveling, although I do have to say that between the twisted time, dream logic, and the abundance of lovely magical people, this place feels almost as much like home as Liminal Space does.

[professorwolf]

I'm still here. Randolph Lyall. I, ah, may once again be a Pillar. I don't know if Pillars have titles, but if we do, I don't know what mine is.

[triggerhappytraitor]

Tachibana here. Garren is with me. Hajime and Ryo are themselves. Kenzaki is not.

[leftbehindagain]

This is Naoki. [Not that Kanji didn't already know he was here, but that's not the point of a check-in.] Still an Oracle, but considering I figured that out in Liminal proper that's not much of a surprise.

We should probably figure out what to share with the locals about our circumstances, since they know at least some of the story already. It's still... really, really weird to actually get a warm welcome for once.

[claudiometer]

Claudia Donovan, apparently in range to hope I can investigate three of these things in a row, Champion of Apples because someone out there has a really obnoxious sense of humor. [Only Helena will really understand the depth of that, but whatever.]

The server room is closed for the duration of the jaunt, and by closed I mean 'the door is gone.' Not sure I trust that getup Jules has going, and the last thing I want is one of the locals breaking Liminal Intranet.

[fruitknife]

Why would you be species-switched just for showin' up?

Looks like practically everyone but me has some kinda new cute animal. Koro-chan's here, but he's just Koro-chan.

[pferdeweibchen]

Jean Kirstein [Since there are two now, he needs to remember to add a last name.] here. I'm apparently now the Oracle of Horses instead of a Champion, but still a girl, which is unsurprising. Anastasia is here with me as my familiar.

[verdeleonessa]

Pidge reporting in. I'm the Champion of Programming and I have a green robo-plant lion cub as my friend.

Not sure what my abilities are yet. I haven't gotten a chance to use them just yet.

[photonicfighter]

Dakki here! Rappy's with me, too, and he's become my Spirit Companion. It seems like I'm the Champion of Sunshine. [A pause.] I like the dress!

It's funny... this time around, I actually know a few things! Not everything. Some of this is still strange... the section, the era that everyone's calling Starquake, that's what all the information I have seems to be about. If anyone has questions, I can try and answer them!

[crouching_sin]

Naoya here. Alice is with me - she's some form of lizard with a very long tail. Large, though, so you won't have to worry about stepping on her.

I seem to be the Adversary of - [He pauses here, and there's a tone like he very much does not want to say this.] - Memory. Which is horrifically stupid in a number of ways. I need to figure out what abilities this comes with, but I suppose I have time.

In any case, I haven't been here before.

[whatspringislike]

This is Shinji Ikari... um, this is my first Jaunt, so I don't really know how this kind of thing works.

Are the senpai at the table some sort of... student council?

[fridgeninja]

I'm still myself. I don't seem to have my powers back, and I don't see Gorgon-Souji-san...

It seems like we don't have to hide anything this time...

Is anyone planning to join the Oracles at the table?

[forcechanic]

Jaina Solo. I figured out how to do the half infiltrated thing this time. Apparently Jey, the Conditioned scavenger from Gehenna, is the Champion of Flight.

[theflyingone]

I am being followed by a very outspoken eagle, but fortunately I think I am the only one who can understand her. She tells me I am the Oracle of Sight. When I objected to being told who or what I am, she said titles and abilities can change. So there is that, for those who did not know it.

I suppose I could... look at things for people? Meet up with me if you would like me to try. I do have the ability to fill my Dreamcatcher. [ He's not sure how slow or fast he has to do it, if there are optimal place to do so, or if he has to be asleep again, but it's a thing. ]

This land, by its nature, seems to promise many things. But be cautious. I would not trust too easily. The Arcana have made our lives difficult yes, but others might try to take advantage as well. Trust only in what you see with your own eyes, and keep friends close.

[razorblade_empress]

This is Yukino Mayuzumi. Still myself, although apparently I'm the "Oracle of Perspective" now for some damned reason.

[Whatever, Questing Country.]

Has anyone gotten a chance to check out the islands?

[bite_the_hand]

This is Eren Jaeger. I look a little different than normal, but I'm definitely still human. The talking bird that's following me around says I'm the Champion of Freedom, but I haven't had a chance to test what that lets me do yet.

[There's a short pause, and when Eren speaks again there's a notable strain in his 'voice.']

Mikasa and Armin are both Infiltrating. I can still sense them here, but neither one of them is answering me.

[summerorange]

Natsumi here, and...I seem to have gotten a power-up for my armor. And Kivaara claims that I'm the Champion of Wander? Though people keep thinking that it's Wonder...

In any case, I hope you and your...counterpart can work things out while we're here.

Later

[dino_zarf]

Just so everyone knows, Rosie was able to pull me out of my overlay. So everything's okay on that front and you have the Oracle of Family at your disposal.
