Baby Bridges the Jauntabout

Hi!

[There's a psychic voice thatreally shouldn't be heard on the Jaunt side]

Everyone keeps leaving the Walkabout to come over here. What's happening, what's so interesting?

Ah! Hello, Rose. We are helping the small people who live inside computers explore a place called the Zodiac. I don't know why some of the other people came, but I came because I was worried for the health and safety of people I care about.

You see, some of the people inside of the computer are sick and still others are becoming sick, which is why I brought Tachibana, who is a sort of magic doctor, with me when I came here. You probably ought not come here. We do not wish for you to get sick as well.

[dino_zarf]

I'm gonna stay with Daddy and not Mama. I don't think I can come across anyway.

[youandyoualone]

That is very likely. I think most people either know one or the other. I can talk to the other place like you, but I had to get Kenzaki to ferry Tachibana and I here.

People don't think about it right, they don't see that liminal and psychic are all the same.

public -> private

[youandyoualone]

So I've been told!

[Going to quick switch to private to continue the conversation, because he does not need everyone to know some of the things he can do.]

I think that is why people can do things like watch and listen to places in liminal space. Did you know we can do that? It is very like tapping into another's senses, only you are instead putting part of your ability to hear or see into a certain location.

private

[dino_zarf]

That makes sense. I've never tried that... most grownup conversations are boring.

Re: private

[youandyoualone]

I remember thinking so myself when I was small. It is very mysterious how all that changes when you are grown up.

[dino_zarf]

That's weird.

The secret ones are the boringest.

[youandyoualone]

Oh, I am sure they must be. And oddly, they are probably the most interesting to the grown-ups.

[dino_zarf]

Why?

[youandyoualone]

When one gets older, one often finds one's interests shift. For instance, someone I loved once used to care very little for poetry, until he decided just after he came of age that he liked it after all.
