Jauntside end Week 1 | Warning: comments will probably start talking about Atma

[blinktomissit]

Hey, so, uh... [be cool be cool] not to harsh anyone's magic school vibe or anything - how's that whole 'dark wizard' thing working out for you guys anyway? - but I've just got a uh, just a... teeny tiny question about something that you know, may have been overlooked in the whole mission statement thing that I feel like is probably worth asking a couple questions about. Nothing big, nothing big, just. You know. Wondering what the hell is up with the room full of corpses. Anyone got a uh - any ideas about that? They like [oh hey is it possible for a telepathic voice to become a bit strained and squeakier? he is sounding more and more wigged out the longer he rambles]-- spares, or something?

[OOC: Warning again! Comments may or may not end up containing Atma (cannibalism virus) explanations.]

[grimjeaper]

W-wait, what--

Ta-- Taako?! What the fuck-- what are you, how are you-- why do you have a room full of corpses?!

[he has SO MANY QUESTIONS RIGHT NOW TAAKO]

[WHAT]

[THE FUCK]

[likescats]

...............

[Death is learning about the joys of headaches.]

YOU FOUND A ROOM OF CORPSES.

WHERE?

[vorenado]

-=a calm but curious baritone voice joins the conversation=-

Are you in the room behind the metal doors streaked with white paint?

-=theoretically there could be someone else keeping corpses, but he doubts it=-

[highsteaks]

I'm pretty sure they're Lupa's.

[flatteries]

[ That is nowhere near close to where Inigo expected that thought to be going. So there's a very instinctive-- ]

Corpses?!

[ --in reply before anything else follows, a noticable moment later. Mostly since there's about fifteen different things going through his head right now and he's not so sure where to start. ]

What would they be spares for?!

[finalizes]

In Liminal or over in the jaunt world?

[That would make a BIG difference. In case 2, he would actually be worried.

...And since we're asking about specifics:] Corpses of what species?

[...] Are they fresh?

[fruitknife]

There's some folks around on a sentient-meat diet. You gonna tell 'em they shouldn't stock up for emergencies?

[This isn't the kind of jaunt likely to have a room full of corpses on it, so Shinji's not too worried about that possibility.]

[fearinahandfulof]

They're probably made of Liminal material and some people here need to eat them to survive.

[There's a short pause.]

Why did you go in there in the first place?

[whatspringislike]

What?!

[Shrieking on the psychic network is definitely not necessary, but Shinji manages it without a second thought.]

(and later, after reading the comments)

[whatspringislike]

Also, um, you can't whisper on the network, but you can send messages to just one person. Like, um, an instant message, instead of just talking in a chat room?
