Does anyone know what a Cŵn Annwn is? It's not important to the Jaunt, at least as far as I can tell, but...
[Please don't let it be important to the Jaunt - the last thing she wants to do is tank the entire thing because she accidentally long-distance stole an exotic hellhound.]

Jan. 18th, 2019 09:18 amawondrousplaceAlright, everyone! I know Joscelyn is warning people of our location, but we do rather need to know who we have, not just where we are.
So, in the spirit of... oh, what's the phrase, getting our waterfowl in a queue?
Please let us all know who's here, and if you're sharing a mind with an overlay! Also, if anyone needs help with a cover story of sorts, I am always available for creative writing.
[Helena, plz.]
In case there are those who don't know me, I am Helena Wells, and my story is that I was cursed to eternal life for being just a bit too clever with researching time travel. It's... close enough to the truth that it will do in a pinch.

Dec. 24th, 2018 09:16 amawondrousplaceHello, 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.

[Jaunt] Party Time
Nov. 24th, 2018 03:36 pmawondrousplaceHello, everyone!
It has come to my attention that it is Thanksgiving where we currently are. Even though it is a terribly American holiday, I have always been fond of any excuse for a party.
Thus, I would like to invite everyone to a proper Victorian feast in my rooms. If you are in need of a portal, please let me know, I would be happy to pick you up as well.
There is no particular time, food will be available starting in an hour or so. Any questions, please let me know!
[OOC: Party will be in Helena's top level]

a pair of network shenanigans
May. 28th, 2018 02:21 pmleftbehindagain[Putting two things in one post to save space, both before the attacks get going. The first is jaunt only and technically public, but I'm not sure if anyone other than our special guest and perhaps Eren would have reason to comment. The second is a solo jaunt-walkabout bridge, intended to be private but I'm open to walkabout-side party crashers; ping me if you want in on that.]
[Walkabout] Check in
May. 7th, 2018 10:23 pmnotadisappointment... so I guess some of us didn't go to the Grid after all. Instead we're stuck in how many meters of snow? Well, I'm not complaining too much.
Apparently, we're in a country called Finland and it's the year 2006. They've just won... the Eurovision? Whatever that is? And we're at a pretty famous ski resort! I wonder if we were just awarded a vacation or if there's something else going on... well, I'm at least gonna do a lot of winter sports while here.
If anyone needs help with how to snowboard, I'm your man!
So who all do we have here? I'm Yosuke if someone doesn't know.

Apr. 22nd, 2018 02:57 pmawitchdidit[Suddenly, a wild little blonde girl in a frilly dress appears on the Network. Her apparent age is much less than usual, but the hairdo and the expression pretty much immediately give away the fact that it's Beatrice the Golden.]
Ahaha, of course I finally work out how to project my image when I'm forced into a weird shape. Tragically, the pop-cute-little-girl Witch routine is trademarked in my universe and I have no intention of mocking that one where her friend can see me. I'll need to work out a medium between that and Bernkastel's permanent deadpan...
[She shakes her head.]
Anyway, more importantly, those of you who Investigated in the Low Countries this past month: I noticed that you were ahead of the Infiltrators in figuring out the identity of that "artifact" we were guarding and its association with a famous sorcerer. Do we still need to deal with that? I know you stole the real article and now recall significantly more occult rituals than the smuggler I was playing in the Walkabout itself, if you need a hand.

truerevelation[Unusually for something that's just chatter, Kanji's throwing an image projection onto the network as he talks - dark hair, decorated leather jacket, all the rest of his usual human appearance. He's looking optimistically thoughtful.]
Hey. So I was talking to one of the new guys - hi everyone, by the way. Something came up... yeah, we're pretty good at getting folks food and places to stay around here now. And we keep working on ways to get info about this whole Travelling mess out to people.
But... we can probably do better by now.
So I was wonderin'. What other sorts of things would be good to get ready for newbies? I'm thinking of getting stuff like more clothes out 'n ready... anyone wanna pitch in?
[As much as he's tempted to, he won't rub Souji's departure in anyone's face by commenting about how long some people had stayed in school uniform...]
Just a thought, huh.
[Closed to close/trusted CR:]
And... okay. Dunno how much of this I should be spreadin' across the network, but... I think I oughta let you guys know, at least. The timeline shit's started again. If you see a - a younger version of me, still doin' the dye thing, with a kinda ...dark pinky red cloak?
He's callin' himself Ochre, and I think he's ... been through some shit even before gettin' here. Memory's kinda hosed. The rest of it's probably ... more his story to tell, but ... yeah.
Man. Been ... been a while since somethin' like this, ain't it.

(no subject)
Mar. 1st, 2018 12:27 amleftbehindagainIn another round of probing the network's capabilities, I think I've found a way to just... leave information available on the network without actually having to hunt through a million conversations to get to the useful stuff. It still needs some testing, but I can't imagine the range of skills to pull the information off the network is all that big - but more important, at least right now, is what I'm planning to leave there.
The most immediately useful thing I could think of was basic information about the Arcana, to help people who aren't tarot-conversant catch up a little. I've put a lot together based on what's been discussed before, but there are still gaps in my knowledge.
If anyone knows anything about what Magician, Priestess, Lovers, Strength, Hermit, Devil, Moon or Sun plan to do if they win, I'd really appreciate having that on the list. Empress and Emperor too - all I could find in reviewing older stuff was that they agreed to do the same thing if either of them wins. I know a couple of them are out of competition at the moment, but considering Lovers has already staged a comeback, I'd rather set this up like any of them could win.
I also couldn't find anything about Tower and Justice's personalities, or whether Hierophant or Star had another name.

awondrousplaceHas anyone other than myself noticed that Liminal Space has not changed since we got here?
Generally it goes through at least one or two changes, but this time, nothing has happened.
Can someone who was here before tell me if this happened last time, or is this something completely different?
That aside, if anyone wishes to step away from the chaos, my rooms are, as always, open.

youandyoualoneAlthough I know that clean-up from the battle with the Glatisant and the message gleaned from its remains is likely of the utmost importance as of now--as well as the matter of the unintelligible Familiars and Spirit Companions--I do have some news that I hope will aid in improving the lot of the Adversaries of the earliest era.
Before her vocabulary became limited to a single word, the vixen who attached herself to me instructed me on how I might use Oracular knowledge to glean further knowledge on Sanctions. What I have learned is this:
These Sanctions use the power of existing bonds between people, either the ones doing the Sanctioning or those bonded with the person Sanctioned. As these bonds are real in the Realm of Dreams, they can prevent action just as well as rope or shackles might--although 'tis only acts with intention they can prevent, not accidental acts, for it is the dream of action that they prevent.
They can be entered into willingly and with consent, but unless that consent was explicitly and deliberately part of that Sanction, rescinding consent would not break the Sanction.
After learning this, I wished to know more of how one would break the Sanctions and Fidelite, who was then still in possession of her full vocabulary, advised me to build a Dreamcatcher and have it gather energy in the Questing Country of the earliest era for roughly a week. Fortunately, I was already there after the bridge broke.
Shortly before the battle started, my Dreamcatcher was deemed sufficiently filled by my still-coherent Familiar, and now that the fighting has concluded, I have had time to look within to see what might break the Sanctions. That information was granted to me in a series of three visions:
The first, of bitter and acrimonious arguments between Champions and Oracles, leading to the severing of a bond group, also severing all Sanctions they created.
The second, of a cabal of Adversaries furtively meeting, banding together, forming a fresh bond--overwriting the Sanction with the energy of their alliance.
And the third and most intriguing, of a heavy, metal-hafted mace, light wavering around its head like one reads in reports of desert mirages.

What light through yonder Liminal breaks
Jan. 13th, 2018 08:48 ambreakaleginhalfSo, uh, I think I know a couple of people already, but just a sort of like-- interest check, I guess?
I kinda wanna start a drama club. Like - make a stage so people can fuck around and do plays or musicals and shit. I've been part of them twice back home, once Before and once After [and those have a very clear emphasis in how he says them] so I know how to direct things, if we did wanna do a full production? And I kind of miss theatre stuff, it's been a while for me now.
I dunno. It's a stupid idea but it'd be pretty fun.

Christmas Carols
Dec. 12th, 2017 12:15 pmnotadisappointmentSo, who all know the stories of Ghosts of Christmas Past, Present, and Yet to Come? Christmas isn't such a big deal in Japan, but our History teacher was insistent on us studying this particular story during the holiday season.
That's what I'm thinking about these past few Liminals. We all were able to see our past in the last one, right? Now it looks like we're getting alternative realities of our home worlds. So it's safe to assume that we'll have yet another Liminal... with our futures.
What do you think?
[And yes, his tone is a bit passive-aggressive thanks to what's going on right now, thank you very much.]

Announcing the Third Annual Liminal Ball
Dec. 10th, 2017 12:59 pmawondrousplaceAlright, darlings, I have had enough of these awful visions of doom and gloom and terribleness.
If I do not miss my guess, it is time yet again for us to start preparing for the Liminal Holiday Ball. For those who are new, let me explain. Each of the past three years, we have had a fancy-dress ball as a party for all of the travelers.
Everyone is invited, whether or not I know you. However, I must say that this is by no means required of anyone. I would hardly force someone into anything they did not wish to do. This is a party for all of us to dress up, to eat, to dance, and to drink, to celebrate ourselves.
As usual, if anyone is willing or able to assist with clothing, food, decorations, or music, by all means, let others know. This is a group effort, I only set it in motion. Please do let people know, especially if you can create fancy dress clothing, or need assistance with food or food preparations.
A couple specific queries as well: Alcuin, darling, would you wish to run a Longest Night pageant again?
And Eren, can I count on you and your friends to help me with tall things?
Thank you all, and if you have any questions, please let me know.

capital_assetI'm a bit concerned about the timing of this given that we haven't been back in Liminal Space for very long, but apparently I also came away from Harrogate with prophetic dreams, and this one seems... oddly Liminal-focused.
It featured an overly gaudy gilt-and-velvet theatre, mostly decorated in red and black. Travelers who sat in the general seating area were immediately handcuffed in place, although they could be freed with assistance from another Traveler. The box seats contained spinning beds like the one in Lovers' area during the extended Liminal stay prior to the start of phase three, and the onstage "entertainment" consisted of reenactments of Jaunt events using Traveler-shaped puppets on golden chains. There was also music, but I can't identify it - I think it might be some kind of Western classical music.
I can share the memory if anyone wants to see or hear it for themselves; I just didn't want to get the melody stuck in anyone's heads without warning.
[For those who take him up on this offer, this is the musical accompaniment.]

awondrousplaceI know that we all have an overlay or two that are... pointedly apt, but bloody hell did I not need to be a former statue again with a dead daughter. Not to mention Eloi? That's a race, not a name, for heaven's sake! Simply too much, in my opinion. Hopefully no one else had as... pointed of an experience as I did.
My apologies, everyone, but I simply had to get that off my chest. Welcome back to Liminal Space.

Parties! Everyone likes parties, right?
Oct. 1st, 2017 09:53 pmawitchdiditIf everyone is done with the latest misunderstanding and no one's wound up in the floor, I have some slightly less exciting but far more pleasant content for you.
[Her announcement was pre-empted by a shooting. It figures. Serves her right for trying to wait until midnight to put it up, but she'd thought, why waste actually having a clock around? Either way, this is a basic communication rather than a fancy video one out of respect for Thorne likely being indisposed for a while.]
That is to say, by the closest reckoning I can manage, it's been one year and eleven months since I arrived, and since my arrival clearly coincided with Halloween, that means that it's the beginning of October now, and also that we're going to be on a Jaunt for the holiday itself.
Both Halloween and the beginning of October are very important to me, as well as Battler and Maria Ushiromiya, two very important people to me you may be acquainted with. It's something of a tradition for us to combine a personal holiday at the start of the month with a Halloween party if there's a chance we might be apart on the day itself, and this year I thought I'd extend an invitation to all of Liminal Space to have such an early Halloween party. It would be a time to celebrate the more positive aspects of spirits and the afterlife after the ghastly business that was Harrogate, and more importantly, to enjoy each others' company and gorge ourselves on Liminal candy.
I will more than happily provide the venue - I'm rearranging my Mansion into something more suitable as we speak - but I wouldn't mind help from any volunteers, especially people who have thrown Liminal Parties before. I'll make an announcement at the time of the event, but I figure it will be ready in three days - about the right amount of time to party until the Jaunt starts, if my napkin-calculations are right again!
Anyway, I'm rambling and don't have an editor here, so everyone, consider yourselves invited to an early Halloween Party, as both guests and, if you like, co-hosts.

rebellioninbloom[Even without an actual livestream attached to it, there's still the ghost of a faint, ladylike cough before the speaker begins. Man. Even back ... back before everything she'd never used the network in public. But now... she supposes she might as well ask.
A high mental voice pipes up.]
Excuse me, everyone? Could I have a moment of your time?
To begin with, I should introduce myself to everyone who has arrived since I last Travelled with you all: my name is Haru Okumura. While I did do so in person, I'd like to thank my rescuers for coming after me again... It is wonderful to know there are still people among the Travellers willing to take those kinds of risks for someone they don't know.
However, I've noticed that a lot of things have changed around here, apart from all the ... new faces? I certainly don't recall all the doors here before! Are those usually here, or are they just part of this Liminal Space? Never mind everything else...
Would it be possible for somebody to let me know what I've missed while I've been ... would you call it "away"? It really would be greatly appreciated.
