[Walkabout -> Jaunt] Foreward dated to 60hrs into the Jauntabout

[youandyoualone]

Ah, hello? This is Anafiel Delaunay. Did the rest of you make it to the Grid as predicted? There seem to be less of us here, so we assume we are on Walkabout. We seem to have been left at a 'ski resort' called Levi, in a country known as Finland, which is on the peninsula that my world calls Gotland. There are 'men in black' in the ski resort with us, so we are on guard for kidnapping attempts to come.

Some of us, including myself, have been mysteriously transformed into foxes, hounds, and reindeer.

I can pass on messages to any of the others who are there with us. Our numbers include Helena, Yosuke, Korra, Usagi and Mamoru, Allura, Tachibana, Kenzaki and Hajime, Kinji, Keith, Ringabel, Utsusemimaru, Sabetha, Gil, Zed, Captain Marvelous, and Rose Washburn, among others. [Sorry, Inigo, but you didn't give your name at the check-in.]

Ah. Also, does anyone know how Alcuin is doing? As far as I can tell he is with you.

Monsieur Anafiel! It's a pleasure to hear from you. It sounds like you're having a nice ski vacation compared to the last Walkabout..."Men in Black" sound familiar, though. I believe they were the antagonists of our visit to a music festival in California. You probably don't need to fear for your life, but they will absolutely investigate strange goings-on, so be cautious.

Rose's father is with her, right? If not I'm sure she's let you know by now if he's not...as for Alcuin, he is here, playing the part of one of the Programs from the Grid. I believe he and Thorne are both Infiltrating, so I should probably inform you for her sake that the world we're in is made up of the tiny people who live inside computers.

Yes. Messire Washburn is here, although he is Infiltrating. Rose herself seems to be maintaining a half-Infiltration, or so she tells us.

I am glad that you have found them. Please keep an eye on them for me, if you might?

[awitchdidit]

I will certainly keep an eye on them. I'll do my best to keep them out of trouble, too, but I don't think I'm ready to make a promise in that regard. Trouble seems to find all three of us...

[In a dry tone.] I've noticed.
