Walkabout: [Shortly after their arrival]

[professorwolf]

Randolph Lyall here. Anybody else dropped into the noisy arcade? Or were most of us lucky enough to wind up in a hotel room or a lobby? Can we have a check-in?

Also, anybody else stuck with animal ears and a tail, or aged up or down? I've heard about a Jaunt much like this place, a while back, though I wasn't here for it: a school for anime magic, basically. Sparkles and animal ears and flowers coming out of nowhere. All the symptoms I'm seeing seem to be lining up for that world.

I'm still working out what's going on. It seems like some kind of multiple-school event, from the signs and the brochure handily in my pocket. I'm even wearing a badge for one of them, so I suppose I'm some kind of representative. The aging up doesn't go all the way up to adults, and I haven't changed any.

Mmmmm, I don't think so. I think it's only classified as a disease because it gets into your data in the same way a virus modifies your cells. It's also contagious. But I don't think there's any direct negative effects?

[awitchdidit]

Hmph. So anyone who comes here is likely to be 'infected'?

[shantiprayer]

Unfortunately, yes. Whether you're already showing symptoms of it or not. It's also not a certain thing you'll remain infected returning to Liminal Space, even if you are showing symptoms now.

[awitchdidit]

Well, that's something.
