Guys I'm finally myself for once!!

[no seriously you have no idea how happy he is about this. though if you saw him in his costume this might be a surprise to you.]

So, um. So far I've figured out that this is called Questing Country, and it's some kind of dream scape? So it's ok to say we don't live here, and would actually be really weird to say that we did. People here go on quests to find something called a Valence, which can grant a wish, but it's only given to whoever is 'the most worthy'. To get there you have to like fight 'dream beasts' and things like that.

And we have magic! Even if we're investigating. They seem to be themed, so I'm the... Champion of Stars, I guess? Which is weird. [but at least the Trumps let up on all the death references.] The animals and stuff that show up will help us, but they seem kind of cryptic and we have to figure out the magic on our own.

Um... that's all I've got, I think. Has anyone else figured out anything? I'm at least pretty sure that the Valence is a thing we need to try and go after.

I know, right?

[you're totally friends hitsu get used to it.]

[icy_heavens]

[Friends are weird.]

So that's Champions, Pillars, and Oracles, evidently. [Casually bringing up a new term.]

[darkhourdear]

What do Oracles do?

[icy_heavens]

They're what Champions become when they're a little less naive, apparently. [Hitsugaya, that's not nice.] Less powerful, but more knowledgeable and act as mentor figures to Champions.

[darkhourdear]

[that's ok Toushirou called Phillip naive even when he was only a year older instead of like... a zillion. He's come to terms with it.] Oh, ok! That's pretty cool!

[icy_heavens]

[Hey, it's only fifty-something years here. Same difference to a thirteen year-old.]

It may make their animals more intelligible to them as well, but I can't gauge that for certain, since Hyourinmaru is filling that role for me.

[darkhourdear]

[even worse, he's still 12 here.]

Really? [pause] But isn't he huge? [like his dog is big but not dragon big.]

[icy_heavens]

Not for this Jaunt, he isn't. [Secretly amused over here.]

[darkhourdear]

...Did he get shrunk? [that's the only explanation that makes sense.]

[icy_heavens]

[And it is a very correct explanation.]

He's about the size of an average cat at the moment. [Undetectable on the network, but Hyourinmaru lets out an indignant snort over here.]

[darkhourdear]

[...that's adorable. At least Phillip highly suspects that this wouldn't be taken well.]

...Can I see? [phillip that's not any better.]

[icy_heavens]

[Hitsugaya would actually think it's funny for once. Because he isn't the one being called adorable. Not that he'll actually laugh or even smile. That humourless reputation to protect, and all.]

He's not going to be able to avoid people seeing him like this. [So that's a yes.]

[darkhourdear]

[yeeeees.]

Where are you?

[icy_heavens]

Near a set of bushes trimmed into the shape of hands. [Not that difficult to find, really. The work on the bushes isn't even that bad, so far as he knows of such things.]

[action]

[darkhourdear]

[Yeah Phillip is totally coming over, with his giant dog of a familiar- said dog is easily larger than the dragon, right now.]

Hi!
