Gooseberry High

I need to borrow your rats, please? As many as you can? The more rats, the more accurate the reading but Cecilia should be enough if you don't feel comfortable with your pet being used in myomancy. I understand. She's very active tonight. She's nocturnal but I'm certain she senses something wr Are any of your rats restless too?

I'm worried about Ulysses. We all are. And I know we all searched yesterday, but I think we were relying too much on the physical? And maybe we should try the metaphysical? There are quite a few of us with talents in the Divine and I think if we all worked together, we could locate him? It's worth a try, right?

Does anyone have a key to the Divination tower? There are more resources we can use in there. More resources, more results to compare. We'll find him. I've been scrying all night, but I don't have the same focus as I do in the Divination tower. I just see grey and white and brown and dull, muddied colors. It's cold. Maybe because I'm cold? We already searched outside, but he's not outside?

I'm going to take Cecilia out and make a harness from my skein of yarn and see where she leads me.

At 6AM. When we're allowed to go.


I'll wait.

Ennis Harper organizes his classmates to try a whole slew of different divination methods to try and guide the search parties. There’s a strong message: Ulysses Quayle is in the woods.

What this means is that from this morning until Ulysses is found tonight, all Divination characters have open season to make an accurate prediction about Ulysses. The only answer they receive, however, is the very vague sense that HE IS IN THE WOODS.

If you wish, you may use this post to describe what your character tried. There's a small chance we may give you a special bonus result... if it's natural and fits the criteria. (There are no guarantees, however.) Please note that staff will be discouraging students from leaving the trails today—which isn't to say that characters can't, but if your character's readings take them into the forest, they should do it when a teacher isn't watching!

(Ali, we see your email, we will be with you in... a time the length of which I'm not sure of. But I hope this answers at least some of it! ♥)

[Warded to Sophomores]

Do you think this is our fault has got something to do with our seance? Like maybe we woke something or made it angry??



Do you think Ulysses might be dead?

[Warded to Cricket]

Can I come hang out with you or do you have a ton of people already hanging out with you?

[Warded to Cricket, Prefects/HB/HG, seniors in Outdoor Education]

I just found one of Ulysses' flip flops. It wasn't far from his cabin, and I lost the trail after that.

So he wasn't wearing proper shoes to begin with and now he's potentially barefoot  

I'm sorry I don't have anything more helpful to report.

[WARDED TO PREFECTS+HB/HG]

I found Quayle, he's safe. On our way to infirmary.
Tell staff and make sure Cricket sees this?

[...]Sorry re: curfew. Be right back.

[OOC: I HOPE THIS IS OK I know it's a tiny bit early.
Also please assume Leo will not answer comments for 20-30-however many minutes it takes to get a Ulysses to an Infirmary ty ♥]
