just prior to the upcoming jaunt mingle...

[bypartisan]

Ahem. It's been, oh, about a week or so since the start of the Jaunt and we haven't really had a large-scale conversation since my ignomious death, so I figure this is likely as good as any time to pool information on the goings-on and update one another to our activities, so that hopefully we won't be too very much blindsided in the future.

I'll start: Wash and I made it out of Nakamiyo in one piece, despite my spending a large portion of our little trip as an overly large mustelid--thank you ever so much Tiresias Syndrome--and an unfortunate cabbage incident. I left the man in Suzuki, where hopefully he will be able to reunite with Zoe, and I'm now heading toward the Sun Guard monastery, traveling under the name of my cousin Dono. I'm also attempting to replicate the rather dashing beard the Betans gave him on the event of his sex-change and while it's only a few days along I think it's coming in nicely. And I haven't been stabbed again.

... I really do hope that can be said of the rest of you as well.

What else can you even be possessed with if it's not ghosts?!

[leftbehindagain]

That's not my story to tell. You'd have to ask him. [Not bloody likely, Naoki knows, but still. He got an introduction from the Angels, but that doesn't mean he knows what they are.]

[failgoyle]

Yeah, yeah, maybe I better just...not bother him...

[leftbehindagain]

Oh, come on, he's not that bad.

[failgoyle]

Well, no, but with the ghosts and spirits and possession and who knows how those are going to be riled up after this?!

[leftbehindagain]

If it's anything like the last jaunt, irritated word got out again, and that's about it. [Hence the preemptive apology, since Naoki's the one who put it in so many words.]

[failgoyle]

Still. Still. Things can always get worse.

[leftbehindagain]

Is there anything you don't overthink?

[failgoyle]

Oh, now you sound just like my mother.

I'm just trying to be prepared.

[leftbehindagain]

You can be prepared without being terrified of absolutely everything.

[failgoyle]

But absolutely everything is terrifying!
