in which the jaunt was failed because sera spent the wholetime stealing an entire populations pants

[unagreeable]

Ugh, I hate using this head talking magic!

Hey, so, acording to that guy in all of our heads-there's a bunch of people over in the Caliphate that think they can tell people what to do. Think they can tell people what to wear, and stop girls from kissing girls, and I think that's fucked up.

So I'm going to go steal their pants. As many as I can. Who else is in?

It is real, for those here life goes on after we leave.

While the others went off to wherever they were, others of us re-visited a world where a Jaunt had already occurred. They recognized people and attacked us over it.

Yeah, because that's not something that could be planned or programmed.

Other than that, do you have any proof? Because they can do that in video games, so.... it's not really a compelling argument.

...what is a 'video game'?

[oftoomuchfaith]

They're... games. Simulations. Like this, but just on a... a screen. And you control a character, or multiple characters, and you achieve objectives, and you win or you lose. And some games you can play with or against other people.

The Trumps are playing a game. This place is their simulation, and we're their playing pieces.

They do not tell us what to do, they just throw us here and we have to figure it out or not.

[oftoomuchfaith]

And they punish us if we don't find and complete the objective. Maybe it's more like animal experimentation, then, put us in a controlled environment with certain variables and condition us to do certain things by punishing or rewarding us afterwards.

Either way, it doesn't lead me to believe that we're in anything other than a really elaborate simulation.
