It figures something strange like power swapping would happen and I'd get nothing from it.
Is this a thing that only affects townies or something?
And I thought this place was strange before but stuck in buildings and crazy weather, it gets better and better.

Hey, now how did you end up in this town?
I was expecting a certain level of reunion but your mug is usually behind the computer screen.

WHO: Michelle Watney & Lore Paune
WHAT: They meet for the first time, and Michelle grapples with the effects of his powers.
WHEN: Monday, early morning!
WHERE: Deja Brew-- so if your character works there or was there, as always, you’re welcome to have seen this!
PROMPT: Cliffhanger?
WARNING/RATING: None!

Can anyone tell me if that list everyone is talking about includes people who were not in town when it was made?

Hey, man. So this is where you disappeared off to?
