Portal Malfunction [Jauntside, shortly after Jaunt start]

[professorwolf]

Ah. Um. Lyall here, infiltrating as the biology professor here, but I'm also myself. If anyone has any questions about this place, as I am also a local, I can do my best to answer them. The biggest thing I suppose is that there's magic here, and the fae folk. Don't call them that, they get touchy.

Also, I need to ask, is anyone else having trouble opening a portal to liminal space? I, er, I can't seem to get in.

[If this were not text, it would be obvious just how alarmed and nervous he is by this.]

If anyone would be so kind as to stop by my classroom and see if I can use their portal, I would greatly appreciate it.

[professorwolf]

Oh dear. Are you familiar with this place?

[breakaleginhalf]

Not- not here specifically. But it's--

I'm Gil, I'm a Changeling, that probably means something very different here but I do not have good relations with the Gentry.

[professorwolf]

Oh dear. Like Jules is, right? I know the concept of a Changeling, at least from Earth mythology. Are you capable of touching iron, yourself? That would at least be one way to keep yourself safe.

[breakaleginhalf]

Yeah, same world. [Everything else is semantics, right now.] Normal iron's fine, I'll get some more of that.

At least that's one difference, these ones are affected by shitty quality iron. Back home it's cold steel or bust.

[professorwolf]

My classroom is fairly well protected, in part because it's meant to be another layer of containment on a werewolf. You're welcome to visit me here.

[breakaleginhalf]

I will definitely take you up on that. It'll be a nice break, what with Liminal Space being, like.

That.

[professorwolf]

What's it like?

[Since the whole reason he started this message was because he couldn't get into it.]

[breakaleginhalf]

It's not anything. All the rooms are gone, it's just pure white nothingness.

[professorwolf]

Oh. That must be what Thorne meant by locked down. That sounds horrible-- though better than being trapped here, I suppose. Do liminal skills still work?
