Oh great, you're all here.

[Hello all; someone sounds super grumpy in your heads almost as soon as everyone pops back in. Not that anyone could really blame him, given what happened.]

I just have one question: what dumbass thought it was a good idea to kill me? Hunh?

Bad news, everybody. I just found out that Zed's been having people rig the voting machines. Worse, since they're direct-recording electronic, there's no paper record like with a scantron.

I'm going to be talking to Daneel--the vavassour--about this tonight and the candidates and even Zed himself. I suggest everyone who's been staying at Zed's place should go back and get whatever stuff they don't want to leave behind right now, because I'm not sure how welcome we're going to be once I talk to Zed. We should be able to stay at the Kurgan until the end of the Jaunt, however. It can't be much longer.

Ugh. I'm sorry about this.

Hey, guys? This is Right. I guess I'm kind of a newbie, but that's not important right now. We got a problem. A BIG problem, one different than those Hunters Thorne talked about earlier. You guys heard about Baadur? He's my boss; I work with his pack as one of their corvigers. Nice guys, but you don't wanna piss off the girl werewolf. Trust me; she's that scary.

Anyway, last night, one of the others got attacked by one of Bagrat's men. His name's Joker, and he was protecting one of the other corvigers when it happened. Joker's okay. He's hurt, but Baadur patched him up. He also got proof of the attack, too, so that the local authorities can get on it. But Baadur and everyone else thinks that Bagrat's trying to go after us in order to scare Baadur into dropping out of the election. They also think that his people might be the ones that attacked that person close to Lady Elphaba recently, too, so that she could drop out as well.

That's not happening. This isn't how elections are supposed to be run. You're supposed to just debate and bicker over policy stuff, not try and kill each other! And we need to find a way to get this jerk and his people to stop.

Hello, everyone. [Though overwhelmed when he first returned, now Armin is calm and composed - nearly solemn, almost military in the way he goes about this. He doesn't enjoy this task, but he takes it very seriously.] I'm sorry it took longer than usual, with everything that happened. [Being sent on a different jaunt, not knowing if he'd see any of his friends ever again.] But... I have the list of people who vanished over the course of the last jaunt and haven't come back.

[He takes a deep breath, then begins the list - slowly and clearly, with a small pause between every name.]

Damian Wayne. Jason Todd. Neria Surana. Lucina. Ryuunosuke Ibuki. Sanosuke Harada. Connor Graham. Labrys. Nick Burkhardt. Phèdre nó Delaunay. Oona. Ken Amada. Junpei Iori. Yoon Yoorae. Chizuru Yukimura. Inigo. Takakage Kobayakawa. Janos Audren.

...

I'm sorry. If anyone has any questions, I'll do my best to answer.

Guys I'm finally myself for once!!

[no seriously you have no idea how happy he is about this. ~~though if you saw him in his costume this might be a surprise to you.~~]

So, um. So far I've figured out that this is called Questing Country, and it's some kind of dream scape? So it's ok to say we don't live here, and would actually be really weird to say that we did. People here go on quests to find something called a Valence, which can grant a wish, but it's only given to whoever is 'the most worthy'. To get there you have to like fight 'dream beasts' and things like that.

And we have magic! Even if we're investigating. They seem to be themed, so I'm the... Champion of Stars, I guess? Which is weird. [but at least the Trumps let up on all the death references.] The animals and stuff that show up will help us, but they seem kind of cryptic and we have to figure out the magic on our own.

Um... that's all I've got, I think. Has anyone else figured out anything? I'm at least pretty sure that the Valence is a thing we need to try and go after.

neverfeltthatway

...I found the King's sigil again.

[Armin projects a brief look around, so people can know where he is, and then looks down to a manhole cover in one of the underpasses - where, just as he said, the golden sigil sits. Uncharacteristically, his tone is short and abrupt.]

Avoid this place.

[Private to Leo]

I'm not sure the same protections will work here, with all the traffic. Any ideas?

turbedon

[A far too cheerful sounding voice pipes up over the Network, the owner of it nowhere to be found in Liminal Space in a rather telling way.]

Ladies and gentlemen, this is your pilot speaking-

Everyone okay? Anyone gone missing after the last Jaunt?

... Any newcomers we need to get off the brainway asap? Because just arriving and then being run over would really not be astrous. At all.

howexciting

... Perdonatemi, I have an announcement.

I am not sure anyone else is aware of this, but the payphone by the door can connect to the Trumps. Or at least, when I attempted to call a Trump, it went through. I am not sure if all the Trumps are available for a call or not. I have heard some of them are dead, so they are likely not, at least. In truth, I am not really sure why they are allowing us to speak to them, now. We should all proceed with caution.

Further... if anyone has information on any of the Trumps that appeared this past Jaunt - The Magician, going by ROSE; The Hermit, going by SAGE; and The Devil - please, share it. I am not well versed in the mystical meanings behind the Tarot, only the cards and their numbers. The Magician is one, The Hermit nine, and the Devil fifteen. While I cannot say I know much about The Hermit, I am aware of many aspects of SAGE, as I was a Crypto this past Jaunt. I... I can tell you what little I know about him, if it would help.

... lastly, if anyone was Marked and feels comfortable coming forward with that information, I would be much obliged to hear it. Private or public, it does not concern me; I shall not come forward with that information unless you are comfortable providing it publicly. With so many Trumps amongst us, I cannot believe any of them would leave empty-handed, as it were.

[There's something a bit rough and tired to Malik's mental voice, even as he speaks with crisp efficiency.]

The Defenders and Miners are wrong, and you do not have all you should. I do not know what everyone has been told but hopefully this information will not be too late to help.

The Automata do not seek to destroy the grid or infect the rest of the network. They are trying to stop the Cryptos from escaping and have been trying to do so since the beginning.

Nothing anyone has told you of them is likely true.

[He pauses before continuing again.]

What you need to know is this.

There is a covert team of automata who are trying to preserve the grid. They are under the directive of a... I am not sure that pair is the right word? The Users they are following the directive of are some sort of creature and two who were once one.

[He doesn't know anything of Trumps or tarot, being from the middle ages is difficult sometimes when having to deal in symbology.]

I will not argue over the fact that they are dangerous. The desperate acting against overwhelming numbers tend to be.

I can answer what I know of, and offer what conclusions I have come to.

One of which is that the Cryptos are far more of a danger than I think anyone realizes.

...I will also need a sword once I return to the grid if any have one to lend.

Everyone, I hope you guys are doing alright after that massive attack...hopefully we won't have to do one for awhile but knowing our luck, I don't count on it. I do however have some things I would like to either tell you and ask you at the same time.

The first thing: I found one of the Trumps. She's a blue haired program who is the biggest workaholic I have ever met and I've taken on at least three or four part time jobs back home. She's also looking for something as well...

For those who have been around the Cryptos or Green Team, has any of them mention a 'center' like a hub maybe? It's not much but it's all I got.

One more thing: be careful when speaking to the Trump. She can claim up to five of us. Not only that...

[Her voice tightens.]

These jaunts...what we do to help others...they're games to them. If 'round' means anything...there's a lot more things we stumbled on.

purseownerisme

For those who are experiencing this for the first time, don't worry. Just keep calm and listen to this message.

If you're hearing this, you're what we call an investigator: someone who retains their memories from their home and other worlds if they have them while in a Jaunt. Some of us have blended in with the setting and are called Infiltrators; don't try and jog their memory back otherwise we'll be in a lot of trouble. They also cannot use the network we're on right now.

What we need to know now is who's not thinking they're a program and what they have noticed so far. Anything will help us try and figure out a way to solve this next issue.

fridgeninja

I know the Trumps sometimes use Liminal Space to send us messages, but I'm not at all sure what this one means. Does anyone have any ideas?

I think the last one meant that the Hierophant, Fortune, Temperance, and the Star are dead.

hakodate

[There's a bit too much chaos to deal with it while the flash mob is still going, but as soon as things settle down, for some relative value of settling down, Hijikata's straight on to business.]

If this is your first jaunt: don't panic, try to blend in.

Some of our number are going to think they belong in this world. If you can hear this, then obviously, you're not one of them. Keeping an eye on our infiltrators is usually our second clue to figuring out what the hell we're supposed to be doing here.

Our first one is when we arrive in the middle of some shitstorm like this, though - that usually means something. So it's sounding like this one's got to do with... [A slight noise of frustration. This is not his wheelhouse.] Romantic shit? Valentine's Day? If any of you are experts, now would be a good time to tell the rest of us. Or if you know a lot about, I don't know, weddin-

[Actually, no, this is not how he wants to start wedding planning, he is going to cut himself the hell off there. Embarrassedly.]

We usually start by checking in, anyway, so if you're still yourself, speak up. If you've noticed anyone is definitely an infiltrator, tell us that, too; you might as well save us the trouble of saying something really goddamned stupid to them while we're trying to figure it out.

fridgeninja

Welcome back, everyone. Usually there's no dangers in Liminal Space, but this one might be different - has anyone checked to see if we can breathe the water, or if we need to breathe at all? Does anyone else have any ideas about the symbolism?

More importantly, I see some blood on the tiles by the biggest waterslide - is anyone injured?

... How did things end for you, in the Jaunt?

Everyone who's new to having voices in your head, please be patient with us: we've all just had a very trying experience.

willyousee

Your pardon, everyone.

[A calm, cultured voice speaks firmly across the psychic network, cutting through the babble.]

If everyone could please check in, perhaps we can determine who is infiltrating and who is investigating. Please especially speak up if you arrived outside of the room of clothing racks. Has anyone met one of the infiltrators yet?

((OOC: This is open to anyone and everyone! If the thread is not marked as private, assume it's a public conversation. You are allowed to threadjack at will!))

inexecution

Did anyone else notice the train seems to loop back on itself?

[That sudden psychic broadcast is brought to you with a great deal of excitement, because of course it is. For those new Travelers who didn't already get an introduction via Joscelin, welcome to the Psychic network! Confusion is to be expected. It's okay, Souji's got your back.]

And I saw some new faces while I was walking around, so, hello! This is probably confusing, but don't worry. You can ask pretty much anyone here for help, we're used to it by now. I'm Souji, by the way. [Well, one of them, anyway...] Don't worry. This is all perfectly normal. [...ish.]

bearpuns

[ For some reason, there's an overly chipper voice over the connection. Teddie's not one to worry about if people can hear him or not; who wouldn't want to hear the dulcet tones of a bear on the prowl!? ]

Maybe not dulcet tones, more like the grizzly voice that will make the ladies swoon!

[ A laugh accompanies the voice, then a strange humming of a song. Teddie clearly doesn't seem bothered by the different surroundings; the TV world was the same to him, so it's pretty clear he hasn't noticed just yet.

However, the humming gets a little louder. ]

Everyday's great at your Junes...Everybear's great at your Junes! That's better. I should tell Yosuke's dad we should change it to that!

[ Another laugh accompanies it. Bless anyone who tries to talk to this bear, he's a mess. ]

purseownerisme

Going with what Adachi-san mentioned before, I think we need to do more than just talk.

If you feel like the three areas should be united in this, meet me at The Ground this evening after midterms. If you know any infiltrators who are interested, bring them along too but keep in mind the usual when it comes to Jaunts. If you're not interested, ignore this message.

[Blunt but straight to the point.]

wantedittobeagame

[Everyone might have heard... something trying to come through from Adachi yesterday morning after the party, but it was garbled and hard to hear, like he was talking through water. It's not until the next day that he actually manages to get something through.]

Man, it's hard to talk like this when you're hung over...

[He let out an embarrassed noise, before continuing.]

So, if you guys don't mind humoring me, gimme a sec to make sure I've got all this right:

Cultures and Humanities want to promote social law, and I'm guessing cultural acceptance so we all can work better together toward a brighter future.

Ecological Sciences wants to create some mutant plant to help restore the earth.

And the Tech group wants to build something that flies... I guess so it'd be easier to extend the school's reach.

[There's a pause.]

...am I the only one that thinks they shouldn't be fighting over who gets the big check?
