NO EXITS

I'm near a shoreline, probably southern based on where the sun rose this morning. I'm going to work on putting together some shelter before nightfall, and figure out food.

Additionally, for any of you that might be in the area: I put a sort of small fort-like structure from some sticks I found on the beach near where I am, so if you walk the shoreline, you'll probably eventually stumble across that, and I'm near there.

There are definitely things out there, and it might be easier to deal with them in a group if we can get a small group of us together.

You alright wherever you ended up?

[Bucky]
Well this sucks. I'm going to need your help with this white boy hair. My leg Are you okay? I saw Lara's post.

[John Silver]
So. Hi. I don't think you've been here long enough for this level of crazy yet, have you?

[Lara Croft]
If you... need anything, I have a fair idea of some of the things you might be dreaming about. I studied every file on the Winter Soldier we could find.

Hoth, Dark Delerth, Rim Panet, and now... whatever this is. Should I be expecting another shoe to drop?

I guess at least I'm facing it with more than one outfit and some weapons again.

[Rey]

When were you on Kashyyyk?

[Silver]

How did your roommate situation turn out?

I’m going to head in this afternoon. If there is anything that we haven’t gotten yet that I should look out for, please let me know.

[Mobius]

How goes the quest for magical items on your end?

[Bucky]

I picked up the lanterns, so we should have light at least until we figure out something a little easier. What else is gonna make our new home sweet home easier?

Also? I think I picked up an invisibility cloak.

[Silver, Lara, Strange]

We might not have found the ring, but I do feel that any week that we survive a sea monster is probably going to have to go down as a good week.

[Silver]

I seem to recall you saying you worked with pirates. I assume that probably indicates a passing familiarity with most of the boats that might be around this world?

[Strange, Lara, Silver, & Sharon (after Silver responds to the above)]

Silver is in, let's meet down at the harbor area and see if we can charter a vessel to get out there.

Also, introductions, in case you haven't - Silver was the pirate I mentioned. Silver, Doctor Strange, and Lara Croft found the intel, so they've got the location we're heading out to.

I'd say we should grab some food before we head out. Tell me again exactly what it is we're potentially looking for?

Hi everyone - just wanted to check in and see how you were all doing. Also see if anyone's in an adventuring kind of mood?

I've been listening around, doing some snooping for anything that may be relevant to our timeline research interests - and it seems like the merchants have a lot of info about various doo-dads that pique my curiosity. I don't have exact details but I've heard rumors about something called the Book of Time, basically a whole bunch of chronomancer knowledge and spells we want to get our hands on. If anyone would be up for tracking this book down, I think it'd really help us.

There's also a ring I heard rumblings about too - it's a ring that allows you to store spells in it to use at any point and since breaking the timeloop is going to require a combo of magic and science/tech (or at least that's been my guess, and the path we're currently on) we're going to need helpful supplies like that too.

So, many of you have expressed reservations and distrust around your other half. They're hard to get a read on, they've obviously been through worse than we have, and most of them look like they weren't in the best shape to begin with based on what I'm reading. Are we in agreement so far?

Most of you weren't here a few months back, but someone stumbled onto a cursed karaoke machine. The whole campus went pop-rock musical for the week. I swear, it was not like Schmigadoon, the musical numbers were better. The point is, people sang what they were feeling. Unlike Schmigadoon, they didn't have the option not to sing, everyone broke down eventually.

My ideas are...

Option One: the most drastic option, we release the karaoke machine for a day or two, hide it somewhere on campus, see what kind of songs the other side ends up singing. Pro: we'll hear everyone sing. Con: we'll hear everyone sing.

Option Two: slightly more subtle, we throw a party with karaoke. I can enchant the stage so only those who volunteer to sing reveal how they're feeling once they step up to sing. Pro: not everyone has to sing. Con: not everyone has to sing and we might miss something.

What do you think?

Remember what it was like to have all those buildings? No? think about how nice it would be to have all those buildings and keep that focus.

All of you who are in a place to engage, let's do it.

The pity angle is a good one, we know the story, and we know how to stick to that. If you can tag someone easily without rousing suspicion do it.

But additionally? Keep your eyes open. I want to know what their campus relationships are like. Who is close to who, and what are the weaknesses we can exploit, and what information we might be able to offer to those on our campus who are having a little more difficulty getting closer to their counterparts.

(*Open if you want to be in her group!)

My dearest friend,

Welcome to Derleth.

I am so sorry I could not be there to greet you myself, but I trust you'll find your way around soon enough. Most of the students have not yet arrived for the new semester and so I've arranged for [your?] lodging on campus. You'll find a key in your pocket. Just like old times, eh?

Should the experiment go as planned, for one week we will be able to displace time and space itself. I believe with my calculations we will be able to control the effects and no one shall be the wiser. To anyone not directly involved it will be imperceptible.

Feel free to wander the campus in the meantime. We'll begin the experiment at [muffled] Hall, on Thursday, precisely at midnight.

We'll show them, won't we?
