[Two days into Fridge Liminal]

[professorwolf]

Sorry to bother everyone, but I'm having a bit of a problem. Some of you may know I picked up a somewhat awkward but sometimes useful ability in the city of Melasurei-- I occasionally get flashes of the future in brief, context-less visions. And right now that ability won't leave me alone.

It's the same thing every time: standing on one side of a glass wall, with several others on the other side, unable to reach us-- there are hands pressed to it on either side, but it's impermeable.

I have never actually seen anything metaphorical before, it's always an exact representation of something that may happen. So... I'm wondering if anyone's seen a glass wall around here? Or run into one, I suppose, seeing as it may be a bit hard to see. And if we haven't... perhaps we'd best keep an eye out for one.

And before anyone asks, no, it's not the shelves in the giant refrigerator. I know what those look like.

They've certainly dropped a lot of hints to that effect, especially with the various pre-jaunt clocks indicating a countdown. And I think all the Trumps that can turn up have done, now, so they probably don't have any more reason to wait.

[professorwolf]

It still feels like jumping to conclusions. But I'll grant it's a possibility.

[leftbehindagain]

We'll likely find out soon enough, one way or another.

Is this the first time you've had a vision about Liminal Space in particular?

[professorwolf]

Not precisely. I've gotten two visions of dungeon doors-- my own, and then Elphaba's. Why hers, of all people's, I have no idea. And I had one while in Lupa's dungeon.

[leftbehindagain]

Well, it had been a while since she disappeared. It's possible that without it, no one would have thought to look for the door. [Especially if that was in the utter zoo of dungeon doors between the last two jaunts. Naoki missed it entirely.]

Still, those are visions of some pretty significant events, which means this wall is significant too.

[professorwolf]

Agreed. The one thing that concerns me is that most of my visions are for things I'm supposed to prevent, or do something about at the very least. I'm not sure what the direction is, with this one. What I'm supposed to do.

Unless it's just tell everyone, which would be ironic, I suppose.

[leftbehindagain]

Well, there's nothing saying it can't be that simple.

[professorwolf]

Well, it... hasn't hit me again yet. And it'd been every twenty minutes or so, so either I'm due for one any second, or it's through with me, now.

[leftbehindagain]

At least we can be on the lookout for it now. Thank you for letting us know.

[professorwolf]

You're welcome for that, at any rate. I just hope it helps somehow.

[leftbehindagain]

It's less likely to take us by surprise, and while I'm sure people won't like it regardless, we're forewarned. It'll help some of us, at least.
