[Jaunt Week 1] Check-In Time...

[helborn]

Casper here. Check in if you're yourself, now.

[His tone is uncharacteristically clipped and short.]

Me too--but, like, I think we're gonna have to be careful about this shit. It's, like, common knowledge here that the gods can pretty much send down fucking cataclysms if we anger them too much. We're going to have to be smart and we're gonna have to coordinate this shit as much as we can over the network, because we don't want the gods to know we know.

[helborn]

[Thorne you're asking a Norse demigod to calm the fuck down.]

... I'll. Try. I don't do subtle very well.

[thornsofmalkav]

[Dryly,] I've noticed.

[helborn]

Not exactly part of my inherited skillset, unfortunately. I swear I used to be better at this.

[thornsofmalkav]

I believe you, dude. Just... be careful, okay?

[helborn]

Like I said... I'll try.

[leftbehindagain]

Either we take the time to get this right, or everyone's dead except the ones we want to suffer.

[helborn]

I know. I know, okay? It's... complicated. Fighting urges that are hard to suppress and all.

But I promise I'll try.

[leftbehindagain]

Thank you.

I think we can safely say the responsible parties aren't anywhere nearby, in any case. Someone would have encountered them before.

[helborn]

There's lights on top of the tower on the Gods' Isle. I couldn't get up there myself, but I helped someone else get a boost.

Riku and I looked at it when we were over there and I ran up it for a ways. There were like touch screens or something on it. I didn't make it to the top, though; it was really tall

[helborn]

If there's no one around I might be able to fly or climb up, but with the midges...

[doesntcomputer]

Oh, right... I didn't think about those. [Whoops.] Still, we should probably figure out some way to check it out.

[helborn]

Sento said he might be able to work on that... so did Riddick. I guess we'll have to wait.
