[Jaunt -> Walkabout]

[Hopefully the 'Goodly Ones' have escaped the church vortex for the time being when this message comes through.]

Hello, presumably-the-walkabout, since there's enough people missing over here to point to one. This is Naoki. I can keep this line up for fifteen minutes or so, since it has others patched through.

We did end up in Questing Country - and they were expecting us, which is weird. Apparently after we all went missing at once after the Valence quest the Oracles got curious and did some digging. There's some other stuff with three timelines converging, but we're still learning about that.

Where did you guys end up? And for the people who requested this bridge on this side, is Alcuin-san available to talk?

(OOC: Another nine jauntside folks can jump in on this bridge, as two spots are already taken by Thorne and Delaunay. Let me know on plurk or by PM if you want in!)

... even in my world, people have sex just for fun, Alcuin. It's just that most of our religions tell us not to do it, instead of your religion telling you to totally do it. It basically just means that we ignore that part.

And long distance relationship are a thing. They're usually temporary when it comes to being long distance, but they're still a thing.

You ignore that part, but none of the rest of the parts that make your lives miserable. Ah yes. Pure logic, my love.

We ignore other parts! Sometimes.

Well. I shall avoid religious discussion further at this juncture, I think, but I am glad that it comforted you when you needed it and gave you hope from time to time. I really am dreadfully glad to hear your voice, Issa. Thank you.

Alcuin. You know I'm basically converting anyway.

I'm glad to hear your voice too. God, I miss you. Me and Anafiel both do.

[Startled silence. Apparently he did not know it was anything quite so strong as that.]

Alcuin? Alcuin, are you okay?

[Shit, she didn't break you, did she?]

I mean, it's not like believing in Elua and his Companions invalidates anything else I believe in. It all ultimately comes from the same background, even the vampire stuff... and I don't think I want to revere any clanfounders now besides my own and maybe Saulot. And Caine, but it's a little weirder when his reincarnation is traveling with us.

And as for being raised Catholic... I mean, believing in Elua is like the opposite of disbelieving in God or Jesus, not when they're his grandparent and father. Without them, there is no Elua. I'm just chosing the covenant I want to follow. Which is Elua's because he improved on both of theirs.

I mean, unless it's for d'Angelines only which I guess it might be, but I'm your consort, so maybe that counts as a metaphorical green card? I hope?

No, no... that is. More than I could have dreamed of. I knew you approved, but I never thought... Thank you for telling me, beloved. When we get back, would you like to come offer a flower or Elua and pray with me?

... I would. I really would.

I'm sorry I didn't say something before. I thought you realized... I guess not, huh?

[He breathes a ghost of a self-depricating chuckle.]

No. Not so much. I am glad, though, Thorne. I really, truly am. You maybe ought to inform Anafiel as well, just in case.

If you're any indication, it'll surprise the hell out of him.

It would not surprise me to find he knows already, but then he can be surprisingly dense about some things.

[Alcuin! That was a criticism!]

[She's so proud of him.]

I'll report on it next week when we call you again. With luck, one of us can do the honors instead of Naoki.

Mmmm.... now that is a thought. There is only so much I should like to say while dependent on another, no matter how trustworthy.

We're thinking of experimenting with mind palaces or failing that using Sensory Livestreaming in creative ways.

...My beautiful, clever girl.

Mm. Well. You might want to find somewhere private if we call you again.
