Hello, everyone!

It's time for the Liminal Masquerade Ball again, I believe. If how cold my arse was when we returned was any indication at all, I'm pretty sure we're closing in on that time.

For those who are new or don't know, each year that I have been a Traveler, I have coordinated a masquerade ball as a celebration for the Travelers. People come together to help each other make clothes, masks, food, drink, and decorations for whatever space our hosts give us. For the past few years, our hosts have given us a specific space for the ball, and I am sincerely hoping they will again.

Please, if anyone has any questions, feel free to come to ask me in person in my rooms, or on the network. Also, if anyone is willing to share skills of any sort, by all means let everyone know. Let's make this a nice, relaxing, fun party this year.

[On the day of everyone's return, not right away but still with the day, Jean addresses the network. Well, it's him and Mikasa both there, actually. The convenience of mirrors and sensory livestreaming.

Jean also seems to have grown some facial hair that he hasn't gotten around to shave yet. It's a small change but it does make him look a bit older.]


So, uh. It looks like I can still turn into a wolf after everything. I didn't have the ability to do that before the jaunt, so it's definitely from there. I guess liminal's gonna liminal and break the rules of how it worked for Tijan... any tips of how to handle full moon while Traveling would be great.

However, there's... something we need to confirm. [Suddenly Mikasa looks more serious, for now, because this is actually really serious business. No one wants to see a mad Ackerman or rather a mad Ackerwolf in this case!] You see, I bit Mikasa's overlay and she was turning into a werewolf. But she can't turn into one, most likely because she didn't shift even once during the jaunt or then it didn't carry over for her... but it would be good to confirm considering the madness.

I mean, I tried to sniff her scent [Mikasa blushes], but she would smell like my mate [... that's just making the young woman there blush even more, there goes her serious face too!!] and someone who belongs close to me regardless, so I can't be completely certain if there's a new scent for that.

[Jean doesn't notice but Mikasa's face looks at least as red as her scarf right now. Or maybe more like a tomato being about to explode.... Right, so not used to the new word yet ... at all.]

I know this is just a Walkabout, but is exploring really the only thing we're supposed to be doing here? I can't help but feel like we're missing something. Is there something we're supposed to find? Or did we already avoid the problem by making sure the local people get treated like people?

So, how many of you have been in space before? Here while travelling or back home, or both, anything counts.

I mean I can start! I'm originally a princess from the Moon where we watched over the Earth and then I've been to space and Moon in this life too after my magical girl things begun... Ummm, I flew across space to find my loved ones not very long before I was suddenly here, so I was in space right before arriving here too but that feels kind of really long ago now...

How are you doing? Ooooor if you don't want to talk about that, let's talk about anything, really, okay?
leftbehindagain: (got my eye on you)
[personal profile] leftbehindagain
This is Naoki. I'm on the walkabout. Does anyone over there know why the network just went into shutdown mode? I really doubt exploring a space moon is enough to do it.

[Please help him keep Eren from immediately bolting to the jaunt to fight eldritch horrors that may or may not even be there.]

(OOC: Naoki's psychic bridge can cover up to 13 additional people from the walkabout, which I think is more than are on the wallaby total. So basically anyone walkabout-side who wants to hop on can do so.)

While most here know these things, there are a number of new faces amongst us and some things bear repeating.

Traveling often involves meeting people from both different worlds than our own and different time periods as well. A friend may not recognize you and an enemy may not be what they become.

This leads us to the only agreed upon rule of the Travellers:

Do not kill one another.

[A pause]

I would also like to request that anyone with ideas of doing things in the two worlds through the portals first consult with someone who was already there. Situations were delicate in some places and altering what occurred may negatively impact the positive outcomes we achieved.

Nonlinear time is complicated and ridiculous.

Food and living quarters are available in various locations for those who require it.

Hey, so. Weird question. Does anyone have a Dataspike I could borrow?

[Mikasa never makes network posts these days, in fact it's like she almost likes to pretend that she's not even here. So uh, today is an extremely special case, apparently, because she's making this.]

So, there's another Jean around now too, not that mine's gone anywhere but this one's ... Different.

[Yes, mine, she's that type who loves repeating that about anything that she consideres as hers, not her problem if anyone hearing it doesn't like her style. Moving on...

Instead of explaining what he's like or what he looks like in her own words, she livestreams for a little while. It begins from when he's still pointing his weapon at her and her asking him who he is in a tone similar to like she could be talking about weather. And then his answer is this even if the words most likely only make sense to anyone from the same world as her or who know things about Titan Hell though some of it is unfamiliar to Mikasa too. Eldian? Also yes, he has a different last name. Weird.

But the point is that he says those things before he attacks her and Mikasa ends the livestream there. Clearly having a normal time here then considering how Jean is usually yelling at anyone who might even accidentally hurt her or whatever else that people shoudn't do to his girlfriend.]


Mght want to be careful if you run into him [warrior jean, that is] and before anyone asks, yes, I'm fine.

[Armin asks around who'd like to be involved with the psychic bridge ahead of time - though for now he avoids asking those Travelers who are here from the first time around on this jaunt. As many as 38 investigators from the jaunt are willing to join him in talking with the walkabout-side folks.]

This is Armin, from the jaunt on Mars, trying to get in touch with anyone on the walkabout.

What's going on on that side? Where are you? Is everyone all right?

Like I said, we're on a Mars colony on this side, and it looks like the colonists are going to try and steal a herd of cattle from the oppression corporations in charge, rationing all the food and keeping most of the people in poverty. However, that's not our greatest concern.

This is a place we've been to before, long before Moebius. More than that, this is a time we've been to before. The Arcana have sent us back the Travelers' timeline - or their own, or liminal space's, however you want to look at it - and placed us within the original jaunt. Some of our number are even infiltrating as other Travelers from the first time around - both those investigating and those infiltrating.

We think they may be attempting to revive one of their own number - one of the dead Arcana that would still be alive at this point in the timestream. That's just speculation, at this point - as far as I know, nothing is confirmed - but it seems to fit. What we should do about it, on the other hand, and about this whole situation... may be harder to figure out.
starshaper: (OH MY GOSH AM I LOSING THIS??)
[personal profile] starshaper
CLEARLY THIS ISN'T MY PRECIOUS MAAAAAAAAAAARS!!! [Hello everyone, sorry for the sudden yelling inside your head and in person too if you happen to be near enough to hear that. Sorry this whole message is pretty loud and all, who lets Usagi do these things...]

Huh? I -- We were supposed to go there, no?! I mean, sure, I get that this is the walkabout and whatever and that most of us went to space instead of... this...

Where are we anyway!??!! Any ideas what we're supposed to do here??!? Any ideas what even happened before we got here because wow that sure was a wild way to begin, what are they even doing... Is everyone okay??

Ah, Mamo-chan is not-himself again like sure he's investigating but that's more form changes to him and oh my gosh he's the most amazing adorable and cutest Alpacorn ever!!! ...I'm still me and hello, my name's Usagi Tsukino!! You know that girl with bun twintails from Liminal space.

Who else is here with us?

But I really wanted to go to Mars to help Rei-chan's home planet...

[Apropos of nothing, towards the end of the return mingle...]

I'm in need of someone who wants to learn to become a ninja.

[This will surely end well.]

[Today in unintentional livestreams, have a view of Liminal Space at the moment, more specifically the wooden-horse figurehead at the front of the boat Claudia and company entered onto.]

Oh for fuck's sake it's a motherfucking Trojan.

[some time later]

Okay, now that I mean to be here, some actual explanation.

A Trojan, in computer land, is a type of virus that gets you to let it in under false pretenses and uses your processing power to do its own shit. They don't usually propagate themselves like this, but I think we can chalk that up to Grid weirdness. They do make heavy use of anonymizers, which explains the grey lights and blurry faces.

Jules and I are gonna work on how this spreads, what it's doing, and how to stop it. Until we have answers, do not Interface anything or anyone you haven't had on your person or in your line of sight at all times - safest way to keep from catching it.

I've made a few Interface-proofing kits if you want to keep exploring without getting ambushed. Not sure how well they work on dataspikes [or why anyone thought Combat Interface: The Utility was a good idea, but that's a rant Claudia will save for another time], but they can at least save you an Interface ambush. I don't have a whole lot but I plan to work on 'em over the week, when I'm not working on the code.

I'm tracking down who I believe to be Shiro. I'll send you the visuals of what is going on. Currently we're inside a building...

[And so, the livestream of her quest starts.]

[After the conflict]

[Later, when she gets back to the Rejunevator and to a more quiet spot she addresses the network again.]

I made it back safe. It looks like they're willing to use force to get what they want, so be careful around them.

I also brought back a data pad the grey program was using, if someone wants to look at the data he was checking with me. It might be infected, so I'm not recommending an Interface.

I need to recharge, but if anyone wants to get their hands on the pad first, I can wait that long.

Something very, very weird is going on with Jean's overlay. I'm not sure what, just that Bonds shouldn't blink out entirely only to reappear the next morning like nothing ever happened. This is the third day in a row. It's too fast to be leaving the jaunt, and he's infiltrating in any case.

Eren-san, he's your friend - I know that doesn't always help when infiltrating's involved, but do you have any insight into this? Has anyone else been working closely with him?

Ah, hello? This is Anafiel Delaunay. Did the rest of you make it to the Grid as predicted? There seem to be less of us here, so we assume we are on Walkabout. We seem to have been left at a 'ski resort' called Levi, in a country known as Finland, which is on the peninsula that my world calls Gotland. There are 'men in black' in the ski resort with us, so we are on guard for kidnapping attempts to come.

Some of us, including myself, have been mysteriously transformed into foxes, hounds, and reindeer.

I can pass on messages to any of the others who are there with us. Our numbers include Helena, Yosuke, Korra, Usagi and Mamoru, Allura, Tachibana, Kenzaki and Hajime, Kinji, Keith, Ringabel, Utsusemimaru, Sabetha, Gil, Zed, Captain Marvelous, and Rose Washburn, among others. [Sorry, Inigo, but you didn't give your name at the check-in.]

Ah. Also, does anyone know how Alcuin is doing? As far as I can tell he is with you.
vrepit_no: (paladin)
[personal profile] vrepit_no
All right, let's get a headcount. This is Shiro - Takashi, might be a better plan here. Speak up with your name, faction, and if you know anyone who's infiltrating or missing please!

I'm getting the feeling we were at least partly anticipated here. Can we get a run-down of which colors mean what and whether or not people expecting us is a good thing here? It was much clearer in Questing Country.
claudiometer: sly grin (sly like a fox)

So, about that color scheme.

Thing one, it's been a while since I did a lightcycle pitch, so: Anyone want a shiny light-up bikebaton to call their own before we looks-like head back to the Grid? First three takers, I still wanna eat and sleep this Liminal. If it is the Grid there'll probably be plenty of the things around, and if not, you have a cool fold-up bike.

Thing two, if anyone wants some Grid 101 I'll do my best, but since I think the only more Arcanapalooza jaunt we've had was whatever the hell they were all doing in Questing Country... it's a bit of a trip. Also my overlay managed to miss most of the action, so I'd be up for other people filling the gaps.

Thing three... by process of elimination Mei's almost certainly up this round, and I'd at least like to know what the crap's going on. In the quite likely event I end up not myself, could someone do me a solid and de-infiltrate me? [She knows this is hard to arrange beforehand, but she'd rather try - then it's at least out there that she wants the thing done.]
bite_the_hand: (This is my serious face)
[personal profile] bite_the_hand
There's something I need to ask of all of you. If we ever go back to the world the Walkabout was in, and Even's still around? Kill him. Please. Don't give that bastard the chance to hurt anyone else.

[Eren's mental 'voice' is grave, completely lacking any of his usual energy. It also lacks any sense of hesitation whatsoever, despite him being well aware of exactly what he's asking here.]

Those of you that were on the Walkabout, you deserve to know that everything was his fault. He was working for the Third Reich the entire time. And it wasn't just that he was reporting our position back to them and sabotaging all of the equipment. It was his fault that everyone was there in the first place.

The mental shielding Even claimed to have was really from an amulet that he kept hidden. His real power was the ability to make people believe his lies. He couldn't convince anyone of something that was too obvious, but he could make people trust anything he said that they couldn't easily disprove. He's the one that convinced the pilots to fly deeper into enemy territory before the plane went down.

...Thank you for making sure he didn't complete his mission.

I have the list for Travelers who have gone out of ambit. I haven't given this list for quite some time, given the extended period between the last two jaunts.

[There's no preamble - he doesn't like doing this and hasn't had a good week. He doesn't have anything to say he thinks people would want to hear, not right now.]

Daniel, Psiioniic, Rosalie, Richelle, Akihiko, *Hyun-ae, Hiroshi, both Marias, Liara, Souji, Istas, Altair, and Kohaku.

...I'm sorry.

I would like everyone to join me in wishing a very happy birthday to Liminal Space's best six-and-a-half year old, Takashi Shirogane!

Happy birthday, dude. If I could make things, I'd make you a cake.
