> You have received the quest Cat Needs Food Badly

[shiroganeheir]

FELIX MAXIMUS MAGNUS, YOU GET YOUR FURRY ASS BACK HERE OR SO HELP ME IZANAMI.....

[Naoto's angry voice rings out across the network before she cuts herself off.]

My apologies, everyone. I seem to have lost a fat, white cat. He will likely eat all of your food if you are not careful. If you find him please let me know.

[OOC: Feel free to make up Magnus sightings! He's fussy, arrogant, and will eat all of your food.]

Comments

[shiroganeheir]

Thank you. I appreciate that. I'm actually quite fond of him.

[She pauses.]

Might I ask who you are? I do not believe we have spoken before.

[dreamingking]

I'm Tybalt. I've only just arrived recently. I do have hopes of not staying, but until I can discover the road home, I will endeavor to be comfortable.

[shiroganeheir]

It is good to meet you, Tybalt-san. I do hope, for your sake that you are able to find your way home. If you do not, we will do what we can to assist you.

[dreamingking]

A welcoming group, indeed.

My foremost concern regarding comfort is quite in line with your Magnus, actually. Terribly difficult to hunt in a place like this.

[And by that he definitely means food.]

[shiroganeheir]

There are many here who can make you whatever you wish for food. I am not one of that number, however, people are quite content to help each other with that. If you describe what it is you would like to eat, I am certain someone will make it.

[dreamingking]

Learning to be self-sufficient, of course, is the best option. I've been told I need to master portals as the first step on that road, but such things are far from my natural skills.

Until then, however, do you have any names I might search out in regards to a meal?

[shiroganeheir]

I believe that is how it goes, yes. My own skills tend to be holdover from our various Jaunts.

[She thinks for a moment.]

Kanji has a restaurant that he keeps open for the Travelers to eat. Otherwise, Thorne makes food, as well as Leonardo-swnsei. He is the one who has the large workshop where many of us live.

[dreamingking]

Holdover's from Jaunts, you say. I admit, I am very inexperienced with this... Traveling business. I believe I've the basics of what a Jaunt is, but more knowledge is always welcome.

Excellent! Your kindness will be remembered. What should I look for to locate this restaurant?

[shiroganeheir]

Jaunts are our main purpose here, in brief. We are sent to various worlds to affect change in various ways. Unfortunately, we are rarely told what we are to do. When we get to the placws, some of us take on the life and personality of another, called an overlay. It is an unsettling experience, but I find I do learn quite a lot about things because of that.

[She notes the lack of actual thanks, but his appreciation is also noted, and filed away for later.]

The doors are sliding glass, however, following your nose is also possible. It smells quite good.

[dreamingking]

[That sounds much more than just merely unpleasant, but Tybalt just files it away. Maybe there's some way to prevent it.]

How often do these Jaunts happen? The particulars of passing time are difficult to determine here, but I would guess at least a week since my arrival.

[He'd laugh if he could, but it's terribly difficult to convey through these mental conversations.]

Following my nose is achievable. I look forward to trying the food.

[shiroganeheir]

There is much we do not know about the Trumps or Jaunts themselves. Every so of the we simply... find ourselves in a different place. We are under the supervision, shall we say, of the Trumps, personification of the Tarot Major Arcana. They are the ones where send us, and occasionally show up to speak with us.

[There's a hint of amusement in her mental voice.]

Kanji recreates food from my homeworld. It is... quite good, I believe.

[dreamingking]

Do we have any proof that they are actually personifications of the Tarot, instead of merely other beings pretending? And is there any guaranteed way to convince them to speak with us? I have questions already.

[He hears it, and wishes he could do the same thing.]

And which homeworld would that be? Also, so many of you manage inflection over this... network of yours. Is there some trick to it?
