Spring Blossoms On The Moonlit River )


I am homesick. I left a daughter behind and a whole valley. Can you believe it? I'm much too young for the burden of single parenthood! Not to mention the plague of lordship.

However I know I'm not alone and so I'm here to offer you some art. Take a moment to rest your mind and body. The problems that face us will remain the same whether you worry about them now or later.


[And thus he performs on his flute. The song is sad, full of longing and yet hopeful nonetheless, mirroring his stubborn resolve that somehow, some way, things will work out for them. Or, at least, for him and A-Xu.]

[There is an image attached with a message to follow.]




Now you have seen this painting, I would ask you to close your eyes. One cannot view an image this large with any level of detachment, and I dare say observing it in this form is a poor representation of viewing it in the flesh. But there is an insanity to the art that one better understands after witnessing the horror of loss. The emotions of which claw around your heart and refuse to relent.

For me this piece is both unbearable and necessary. Ultimately paintings are supposed to share the truth and I believe it does so. But what does it make you feel?

I likewise ask you to share your favourite works with me. The world is so vast I fear there will never be enough time for me to experience them all.

hello, fellow unwilling etrayans. this is sophie cuckoo.

two things to address today. the first one is regarding NYX. if you don't know what the fuck im talking about, in charronway there's a massive building with grafitti all over and the entrance says 'all welcome'. it's our community center here in etraya, we offer homemade meals for lunch and dinner, community support and classes given by our fellow kidnapped, and a space for gatherings if you want to use it as such.

i am once more opening roles for cooks, and if you want to teach something to the community or if there's something you'd like to learn, let me know and i'll fix it in the schedule. in the mornings, you'll talk to chrissy and for our collective psychological well-being, never ever address me before 12pm, but i'm available there after that time and chrissy will tell me if you need anything prior to my soul returning to my body. i also know some of you got powers on earth, so if you need some testing grounds or help, that can be arranged too, although i want to make it clear i am a not a good teacher. you choose this at your own risk.

now that that's out of the way. part two, people. tell me what you are up to, give me your problems to solve, you guys know the drill. last time you all had such interesting insights and some of you are in dire need of therapy, but well. let's go.

i got some time to kill.

[The camera is fixed on a table, upon which sits a neat stack of cards โ€“โ€“ black with gold foil in the shape of a sun and moon bisecting each other. The userโ€™s hands pass over the deck and spreads it wide into an arc. Her hands are tanned, with two rings on her ring finger and one on her index finger, and she has so many colourful braided bracelets that some wind around her palm.

Her voice is pleasant, playful, French, a little theatrical:]


Bonsoir, mes amies!

Tonight and tonight only, I will tell your fortune with a single card. Tell me your name, and if you would like to hear about love, money, health or the soul.

If it moves you, you must repay me with an amusing anecdote about yourself.

nate and anomaly.

Nearing the end of the mission and Nate being the anomaly's influencer, I figured I'd toss up a post like this to discuss those who want to "deal with Nate" when he's been clocked as the Etrayan that's been rumored to have been taken over by the anomaly. Quentin and Sophie will have clocked Nate and the anomaly being a thing with being telepaths themselves while Gorgug and co. have a means of dampening/nullifying the anomaly's influence which will annoy Nate a little and he's sure to go looking for the things blocking the spread. More info on that from players in this post.

On that side of things, if people want to encounter Nate or be influenced by the anomaly further when he's on the hunt for these nullifiers, we can do something with that? This could turn into a bit of PVP if you're not on the same wavelength of him for thinking with this and comes with the potential of him injuring others if that's what you're looking for. I'm not looking for him to kill anyone, but. The offer to go against him in whatever capacity is there, be it fighting or trying to talk him down.

On the flipside, if you're looking to go against someone you wouldn't normally (friend, lover, family, etc.), Nate can help you do that with the anomaly's influence. If you're looking to get messed up in a traumatic way via a mind break of sorts because you got in his way, Nate as a telepath can break your mind a little. There's a few options that can directly and indirectly involve him. Ultimately, Nate is going to be stopped and taken down by Knife in the form of being stabbed as one does sometimes, but. Prior to that, other interactions and fighty-fight can happen.

Dealing with any of this is entirely optional and not something everyone needs to participate in, but. If you want a little fighty-fight for your character, be it with Nate or against someone else, that's what this is for. This can be discussed and handwaved or threaded out, I'm honestly fine with whatever's easiest for you. Just let me know and we can figure it out.

Think someone could give me a hand with something?

( He starts with voice, isn't particularly looking forward to the idea of putting up a video. But he sounds tired, annoyed. )

I got this thing on my wrist I need to get off. ( The way he says thing makes it clear he feels some kind of way about it.

But he does, reluctantly, turn on the video to show what he means. So you'll get treated to the sight of his arm and the glowing cufflink on his arm. He turns his wrist carefully, shows the shape of it, and the underside of his wrists shows a darkening red mark on his skin under it from constant wear and pull over time. He pointedly doesn't call attention to the reddened hand prints you can see on his forearm, another on his bicep or the faint outlines of handprints on his biceps and shoulders. A moment longer of showing the cufflink, even unclips part of it to show the way it extends. And then, he cuts the video.

Back to voice:
)

Lemme know what you want for helping, I'll find a way to get.

[ In the very late hours of the night (or early morning depending on your perspective), there comes a message that's basically a stream of consciousness. ]

so, this mission. the location.
it's kind of like... my home world? or it reminds me of it
either way, it
got me thinking
and I realized I've been here
like a whole year? basically?

that's wild

I don't really know where I was going with this, I realize
I just needed to say it, I think
it doesn't feel real sometimes
it's a year more than I would have gotten otherwise, but also

it's complicated
I miss home
well, I mostly miss the people from home I think
not the actual place.

anyway, how long have some of you been here?
do you miss home, or is here better for you?
what do you think will happen when we're done here?
I think I just need to have some people to talk about it with, maybe
and I appreciate it
