[Armin tries to look professional, but this liminal has been trying, in a number of ways. He keeps his face neutral, but he looks tired - and there's a tension to his expression, just a hint of sadness.]

I have the list of those Travelers who are no longer with us. To be clear, I am only including Travelers who have been here for at least a jaunt. There are too many who both arrived and vanished in the last couple weeks for me to include them all, since I never met most of them. If anyone wants to know whether somebody who showed up during the last couple weeks is still here, however, I can find out.

Nicholas. Istas. Elliot. Byerly. Zatanna. Mikleo. Doujima. Robin. Neeshka. Hal. Sorey.

[He goes quiet for a long moment, before continuing on a different vein.] Most of you will probably have noticed, but this liminal space seems to be messing with our heads - making people more cynical and paranoid.

Eldritch defenses work against this influence.

I'm not sure exactly what this means, but we should be on guard. However, I have searched thoroughly and I can find no trace of the King in Yellow's sign.

Yeah. God.

[Another long sip of booze blood.]

I. Ugh. I'm sorry, Sabetha. I don't know... but you're right, we should try to keep this on the down-low for now. Just so she's not the only one.

Fortunately, unless anyone else decides to get experimental, we should be able to keep it quiet for now. I don't think Liminal Space is quite unstable enough to make pushing through easy. Although if it is, we might have much bigger things to worry about in short order.

[thornsofmalkav]

Yeah.

So, uh, what did you tell the desert island guys about how you got there when you got there? I mean, how many of them know you were in Rome first?

[amadine]

Just Raidou. The rest were asleep when I arrived, or else absent. It was easy enough to catch up on the chaos I'd missed before they woke, and let them assume I'd just been playing antisocial.

[thornsofmalkav]

Well, at least we can trust Raidou not be that big of an idiot.

[amadine]

[Sabetha dips her head slightly in agreement.]

He's one of the few here who possesses any sense at all.

[thornsofmalkav]

Yeah. Pretty much. Whatever they pick us for, sense is not it.
