Open to Investigators

[timelessinventor]

Well, things are certainly going to hell in a handbasket, aren't they?

[Helena's mental voice is more than a bit frustrated.]

Does anyone have any idea where we could be of help? Clearly this firebug needs to stop before they burn the entire place down. I am getting very worried about the gas contents of these airships with all of the fire around. It does not bode well. If anyone finds one of these objects before it explodes, please let me know. I might be able to help disarm it.

Also, what about that other gentleman? Where is he, and what is going on with him?

When I showed up here everything was dark. It helped me think it was the afterlife.

Re: [Private]

[fearinahandfulof]

I think that was after the... cars?

[Her voice grows somewhat tentative, as if she's not entirely sure she has the correct word.]

Re: [Private]

[thornsofmalkav]

I don't remember cars, so it probably was. It was right before a bunch of us were in Questing Country and I think the rest of us were at some weird facility.

Re: [Private]

[fearinahandfulof]

The Megaron. In Nibiru. Some of the others had been there before.

Re: [Private]

[thornsofmalkav]

Is that where you were?

Re: [Private]

[fearinahandfulof]

Yes. It was... strange.

Re: [Private]

[thornsofmalkav]

Yeah. Questing Country was pretty weird too.

Re: [Private]

[fearinahandfulof]

Sera showed me two Jaunts, but I don't think she showed me that one.

Re: [Private]

[thornsofmalkav]

I dunno how to share memories of Jaunts yet, but I'll share that one if you want if I do learn it. Just, like, remind me of it?

Re: [Private]

[fearinahandfulof]

I'll remember.

She showed me Melasurei and the one with the... mermaids...

[She stumbles over the last word slightly; it's clear that they're a new concept for her.]

Re: [Private]

[thornsofmalkav]

I wasn't there for either of those. I don't know much about Melasurei, except that it didn't work out well for us, but I knew we'd had mermaids happen. The first time I met Joscelin outside the Jaunt we Infiltrated together on he was using this mermaid--well, merman--form he'd kept from that and I thought he really was a merman.

Re: [Private]

[fearinahandfulof]

She... taught me how to give people knowledge the way she did me. I could show you what I saw? But it requires touch, I think, so...

Re: [Private]

[thornsofmalkav]

I have to hang tight with my-- well, he's not my little brother anymore, exactly, but... anyway, maybe we can meet up in Liminal when this stupid Jaunt is finally over and you can show me then.

Re: [Private]

[fearinahandfulof]

Hang...?

[It must be slang from her world; Cassandra assumes she's saying she needs to stay with her not-brother.]

All right.

Re: [Private]

[thornsofmalkav]

It's slang. I mean I have to stick around by him.

And yeah, see you there?

Re: [Private]

[fearinahandfulof]

[Cassandra is obscurely pleased to have guessed correctly.]

Yes.
