All right, you know the deal. If you're yourself, psychically raise your hand.

Or, uh, if that doesn't make sense to you, just... let people know you're you. I'm myself, obviously, but I have no idea what the hell my archetype or role is. I was infiltrating last time as Ace -

- shit, I need to avoid him. Anyway! Yeah. Uh. ... Yeah...

[His psychic voice just trails off as the awkward overtakes him.]

vrepit_no

So... Matt and I were talking, and since Matt so graciously accepted my proposal, we decided that for my birthday we can have a little wedding, as a treat.

We'd like to invite all the Travelers - no need to RSVP, just turn up if you're feeling like it that day. There's no dress code for guests, there will be food at the reception, and music, if you feel like dancing on the rings of Saturn with us.

We have some things planned, and there are some folks helping out already, but if you feel like pitching in, heh, we wouldn't say no. Feel free to reach out and we'll get you in touch with the people who are already working on stuff.

We would be honored if people would be interested in sharing in this with us. I can promise no kaiju, but there will be sweets.

[Everyone will recognize ROSE's voice on the Network, and will see her in their minds' eye, as though she was using Image Projection - but she's gone fully monochromatic, her voice is curiously autotuned, her hair is done up in coiled buns on either side of her head, and she's wearing a simple, pale blue dress or robe the same color as her skin and hair.]

Okay, hep cats and hoppin' kitties. You did it. Now for our end of the deal.

You and everyone we scooped out of Godzilla's Midnight Snacktime get a free ticket back to the Umbrian Vale, any Spire except Stricken Star, any time from fourteen minutes before we brought you out to fourteen days after.

Me and the Heavenly Choir have veto power, but we trust you and we owe you on this one - so we're listening.

If you need more time here to prep we can give you a little while - but the longer we wait here, the more our options on where to drop you off narrow. For every day here, shave two days off the times we can drop you off after; and two minutes off the times we can drop you off before.

I'll open a channel where you can talk to me; a channel where you can talk without me; and a channel where you can vote.

((OOC: voting will close at 11:59 PM CST on 1/9; a fresh Jaunt plotting post will go up immediately thereafter, and the Jaunt will resume sometime on the evening of 1/10.))

Don't all go stuffin' your damn faces all at once. Not now and not when the jaunt's actually over, either. Two weeks in starvation mode's plenty of time to get used to it - you'll just throw it all back up.

[Shinji wishes he wasn't speaking from experience.]

Got some soup on.

otomechapilot

...I'm going to go cook and people are welcome to make requests and eat with me.

You know. To get the taste of being A Jimothy out of my mouth.

...that's probably unfair to Admiral Caine since Jim Preston was way more outright evil but really.

So about Dara...

I wanted to see if I could find out what she was doing before her disappearance on the off chance that could point towards her current whereabouts, so I did a Sift on all the relevant data I could find. Which probably means I'm on a list somewhere now, but... anyway.

We already know she was working on the Phileon project - specifically, she was working on advanced biology and S. Tech research and development, in particular S. Tech containment and countermeasures. It looks like she left voluntarily and very suddenly, and went to great lengths to hide from AEGISCorp when she did so, even calling in a bunch of favors from friends working for AEGISCORP's biggest rival, Munghungwa Dynamics - who, incidentally, still have offices on Mars.

AEGISCorp is unsurprisingly looking for her, as are the ESDF, who were also pretty surprised to see her go. There's a phrase the ESDF using in reference to that operation: "Colorless green ideas sleep furiously."

This is a field Dara has loved since high school. In theory, this should have been her dream job. And she didn't just walk away: she ran.

[It isn't too long into the Jaunt before Ryo's excited voice comes through on the network.]

BEST JAUNT EVER!

[And Hajime's far more exhausted mental voice comes in afterwards.]

This is Hajime, we, ah, did that thing where we're both infiltrating and not infiltrating, and there's some kind of space base out here with a lot of aliens bent on conquering Earth to take care of some bioweapon? I just...don't really know what's going on beyond that.

[Ryo cuts in again.]

And we're mantises! Mantis people are normal here! Not many of them, but enough to be normal! IS AMAZING!

changeitall

Weiss Schnee here, returning Champion of Ice from our first time in Questing Country. Presumably I still have thing called Dust with me, so ice isn't my only element here. [Plus she has ice dust.]

My Spirit Companion is called Winter, she's a pale blue kitsune and big enough for riding. [So in other words it looks like Alolan Ninetales in the size of an Arcanine but Weiss doesn't know that!] Coincidentally her color is pretty much the same as my summons are, not that I'd trust anything like that to be a coincidence here.

So, who else is here with us and what kind of companion did you get?

keepcalmcookon

[Exasperation. And anger at the stupidity he's about ready to mention:]

A group of idiots just managed to summon the Genius of the Entire Atlantic Ocean, whom promptly escaped their attempts to contain him and possessed their leader. The Crown Prince and the Princess were also both present--and the genius is amenable to not murdering everyone. Even deciding to bide his time to decide which one of them he may decide to support in their fight for the throne.

Even though he seems amenable enough, he can surround you with water and drown you where you stand, so don't try his considerable patience by being a prat.

[Ignis has thought about what to say for a bit now.]

I've been accepted into the household of the heir to the throne, Caelum. However, I have done so by convincing him that I am insane. What sort of threats should I keep an eye out for?

[Ignis. IGNIS. That pun was intentional.]

((OOC: Also yes using the same icon since spoilers))

Hello everyone, Ambrose here. Well, mostly. Just doing a check-in thingy to see who's themselves-ish and where everyone is. I'm in London - sorry, Londinium - and hanging around the palace and there's a lot of hustle and bustle here. The High King is abdicating in favor of his nephew and there's gonna be a big ceremonial gizmo for that in a few weeks. Which experience tells me is the thing we will not set on fire, right?

[ okay, the Travelers haven't literally burned anything down in a while but in his mind it's still worth advising against. ]

Anyway, like I said I'm mostly here and doing the half-infiltrating thing. My overlay is Scottish and I have a pet hawk, which is...fine, it'll be fine. I'm going by Angus MacLeod.

[Thankfully, the second time that Noct accessed the psychic network he was much more in control of himself, and had a purpose. He was hoping that his 'message was working properly, as he'd never filtered anyone out before and he really preferred physical social media.]

Okay, if this is working properly, Ignis shouldn't be able to hear this. If he can, then you better not be listening.

[Not that it would do anything. But it better be working.]

So now that I'm not drugged out of my mind from pain, I realized that Spec's-I mean Ignis' birthday passed. Like I figured, he-didn't tell anyone, and I'm usually the one who forces him to celebrate.

Look, I don't know many of you or how many of you are friends with him but like. It would mean a lot. You know. If you knew him and helped out and such.

[He took a deep breath so he stopped rambling like an idiot teenager.]

I'm formally requesting the help of anyone involved with Ignis to set up a small get together for his birthday. Any help with food, presents, and anything else would be appreciated.

fruitknife

Is the coast clear magic-wise yet? Turns out it's hard to get much done when you're fuckin' invisible.

[And it would maybe be nice if Shinji could figure out what he did in the first place, which would be easier not in Liminal.]

seestheworld

[At some point during the week, a livestream pops up on the network. Oddly enough, it appears to be from Minako of all people, which given that so far she's managed to avoid learning any network skills at all might be worth commenting on, at least for anyone who knows her well enough to know that... if it weren't for the actual subject of the livestream in question, which is a tad more important right now: namely the uncrowning and subsequent Fall of one Bartholomew, (formerly) Angelic (former) Prince of the Market.]

I don't know if this is going to affect anyone's plans for the guy, but...

[Enjoy?]

awondrousplace

Alright, 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.

protect_and_serve

As many of us suspected, we have returned to Purgatory.

That land, just visible across the river beneath the clouds of ash?

That is Hell.

Whatever your Caerdicci poets may say on the matter, no mortal soul we know of has ever returned from Hell.

It would be wise not to test the limits of the Arcana's powers in such a way.

Be wary.

[Shinji takes to the network just before the security protocols snap into place; there's just enough time for him to sound supremely annoyed.]

Why the hell am I purple.

[Point of fact, he's not actually purple, but rather a shade of maroon that would match his coat quite nicely. But since he's not livestreaming himself, someone would have to see him in person to point that out.]

seestheworld

Okay, I only just came over last week and I'm still catching up on things so this may have been covered already, but... does anybody know anything about that communications station just outside the city? And would anyone be up for breaking into said communications station? Because it looks like Erebus has that thing under tight control, which means people Earthside probably don't know what's going on up here.
