Uh Hello! Hi.

It looks like this odd power switching thing is pretty widespread so I'm assuming someone has my own abilities? I don't really know how to narrow that down, but I'm a wizard and oracle by trade, so--magic? Specifically magic that involves seeing the future and having visions in an oracle/psychic sort of way. But I wanted to ask a favor of whoever this person might be that if you have any visions can you write them down? They are usually fairly mundane, but I keep a journal of them for tracking purposes and so I can see if there is any correlation between them, make sure they came true, that sort of thing. They aren't always straightforward to interpret, so I've been collecting data over the years to get better. It is like a dream journal, except I don't really dream because I don't really sleep.

Anyway, I apologize. This is a lot of rambling.



Also I'm unsure whose abilities I now have, but the cats are really chatty in this house.

I find myself this morning with a rather large hole in my kitchen wall. I'm so, so sorry, Sutton, I will make it up to you

Has anyone else woken this morning to find themselves with [...] stranger than usual powers?

Uuugghhh uuurp!

Did anyone try to eat the Candy Land down town? If not, I can report that it was delicious. I can also report that I might have eaten too much of it.

If anyone needs me, I'm just gonna sit on the sidewalk for a little while.

Okay so I was going to say something about dirt cake Oreos but instead I think it's more important to say that I saw that portal beast in the city?? It wasn't doing anything but I think it was scared worried afraid confused? Like it didn't know where it was? Or maybe it was the noise?

I think it's sad and I think I want to hug it


Oh wait hold on, it disappeared now? Like it--disappeared and came back and disappeared and came back and then I think it went through another portal? I can't tell if there's anything left behind. I don't think there is?


(also in case anyone IS wondering about the dirt cake Oreos, they're pretty good but the sprinkles are really hard to see and have no flavor so they're just there as a gummy worm homage, and there's dual creme which is nice even if I think crushed up Oreos in Oreo creme is a little like eating a chicken omelet lololololol look they're delicious because I love Oreos BUT maybe not the most clever)

Hey, I'm looking for odd jobs that a teenager is allowed to do so I can pick up some extra money to pay for prom stuff. So if anybody needs, like...a bookshelf put together or their library catalogued or the oil changed in their car or something, call me. I want my girlfriend to be able to order an appetizer at pre-prom dinner if she wants.

Hey Mr. Laurence, this is Mike, Nancy's brother. You also might remember me from helping out with the kid camp at Art of Expression back when everybody got turned into kids.

I wanted to ask for some I guess fashion advice? El and I are going to the prom in May, and you're supposed to dress formal for that. I've never dressed any more formal than basic going to church clothes, so I have no idea what I'm doing. You always look really sharp, so I was hoping maybe you could help me with figuring out what to wear for this?

Hi! So I'm Kai, and it seems like introductions are next on my list of things to do? I may have met some of you before if you've ever ventured down to Atlantis or but ✨surprise✨ I live here now! You know, I'd never been to Downtown Vallo before? There is so much to see and do, and so much food we didn't have in Atlantis. Only sort of judging all of you eating at the seafood place (sort of, but not really, I'm not judgy by nature to be honest), but spaghetti? I could eat it literally every day. 10/10 would recommend.

Anyway, I'm rambling and nervous but but I'm currently taking recommendations for what to check out next. What does Vallo have that Atlantis could never compete with?

Hi, everyone. I’m sure you’re all aware of the very recent round of vanishing friends and family again. The DOA has received reports from Vallo PD of a rash of locals disappearing again as well. It looks like we’re dealing with another portal, likely the one I’m sure we’ve all seen hovering over the mountaintops.

I received word from Keith Kogane a few minutes ago that he’d taken the Black Lion up to take a closer look through the portal. He reported seeing nothing more than stars and darkness but received readings of a lack of oxygen as he ventured out farther.

It is the DOA’s belief that, much like last month, the missing are on the other end of this new portal. With that in mind, please reply if you meet the following criteria:

  • You would like to be a member of the rescue team.
  • You have a usable spacecraft and are open to transporting teammates through the portal.

  • We’re going to move on this as quickly and efficiently as we can. Those who reply should report at 4:30 PM with packed bags here: [mountain coordinates].

    Eat some Oreos, take care of yourself, and tell people you love them. It doesn't solve anything, but I think it helps a little.

    Gangsey

    I'm going to go get some of my things and the cat, and then I'm going for a walk. I might sit out with the cows for awhile too.

    Love you.

    Hi.

    I don't know if you saw, but, there was a mission yesterday to rescue our people who had been captured. Gansey's okay, I didn't get to see him a lot during it but I think he has some bumps and bruises.

    Ronan was hurt more. It was pretty chaotic but I think he was limping when I saw him.

    I figured you'd want to know, and if you could pass it along?

    [FILTERED TO VALLO PRIME, FLIPPED REBELS (THAT INCLUDES YOU ELI), & RESCUERS]
    Testing, testing. Are you getting this? We're using my connection to the Black Lion and the quintessence tech in my arm to form a bridge between the networks. Basically, we're playing telephone through a giant sentient spaceship. Stop by and thank him for me? I'm sure he's stressed by all of this.

    Anyway, assuming someone is reading this, on the other side of the portal is a parallel Vallo. We've made contact with a group of Outlanders here and confirmed that they are alternate versions of some of our lost people. Most of them have lived here for years and some have different memories of their home worlds. They've formed a rebellion against another group, made up of more of our lost people. They call themselves the Court of Revenants and they're the reason this message is filtered as best as I can get it.

    Please be aware that Council members might look like someone you've lost, but they have apparently taken control of this Vallo through force and terror. There is a stalemate between the Council and the Rebels because any physical violence here creates what they call Echoes - spectral enemies that attack anyone close by and only stop when the fighting stops.

    Now I'm sure you're wondering where our Outlanders are. I've been told the people here suffered a violent headache and a flash of memories that then faded when the portal opened on this side. It can't be a coincidence. I suspect our people are tangled up metaphysically with their counterparts. I have no idea how to separate them. If you have any theories, please don't be shy.

    As for the rescue team, everyone is accounted for and safe. Our focus right now is planning a recovery mission. A few rebels were taken captive just before we arrived. Keith is We will get them back. In the meantime, please feel free to use this post to brainstorm and reconnect. Since I know it'll be a question on your minds, here is the list of the captured:
    • Ashton Greymoore
    • Dorian Storm
    • Keith Kogane
    • Luffy
    • Nancy Wheeler
    • Noctis Lucis Caelum
    And a list of the Council and their allies:
    • Caleb Widogast
    • William Laurence
    • Henry Townshend
    • Kellach Donnallen
    • Ostyia Rabalska
    • Teddy Kaplan-Altman
    • Billy Kaplan
    • Abigail Blyg
    • Lan Xichen
    • Lee Thompkins
    • Joshua Rosfield
    • Julian Blackthorn
    • Ronan Lynch
    • Serefin Meleski
    • Silas
    Anyone not on either of these lists should be able to see and respond to this post. Okay, enough rambling. Time to see if this actually works.

    Rebels + Vallo Outlander Arrivals

    Okay this was all a lot today, but now that our [...] guests have been given the rundown, you all have your devices, we can answer some of your questions. I think we're all adjusting, so just bear with us. For some of us, it's been a long time since we've seen you. In some instances, if ever.

    I'm also going to reiterate, please don't leave our location without bringing one of us with you. This isn't the Vallo you know and what we're dealing with is pretty shitty, so until we can figure out a larger plan, staying put is going to be safest. It's not just the Echoes. It's the people you think you know.

    Alright, have your reunions and ask your questions.

    The last of the Flerkens we'd managed to gather up and bring to the Castle disappeared around midnight last night. I got to witness that wide awake - one second they were climbing all over me, the next they were gone. Almost like Minus the d It looks like they were just temporary visitors after all. They had a great time while they were here, and I know they soaked up every bit of affection they got from everyone who came by to hang out; thanks to those who brought them in and came by to play with them.

    The kitten Goose brought back to the house was still there when I got home, though, so I'm guessing any home invaders you brave and/or crazy people took in are sticking around. If anyone can't handle full-time Flerken ownership, let me know. And don't mind Goose prowling around to check on her spawn sometimes. She's her own boss, what can I say. 🤷🏼‍♀️

    Soooo... if anyone wants to come help round up some of these tentacle cats at Boyd's that'd be great. I counted at least eight, possibly more. Five for sure have run off somewhere in the shop with various tools which I'd love to get back to, you know, do work. Menaces. Completely adorable, but menaces still the same.

    Ever since New Year's Eve people have had ideas about what new "fun" toppings they can request on pizza like they did at the charity event. Too much warm fruit. And finally today someone said they wanted strawberries, peaches, and pickled radishes with scrambled eggs and I just

    I no longer work at Nino's. I quit. It was that or jail. Find a new place to knife fight out back.

    Finn got to hang out with Molly, our tortoise, this morning. The giggles when we helped them hand her some lettuce to snack on was easily one of the cutest sounds I've ever heard in my life. She's pretty cute for a reptile, too. Look at her.



    Oh, and - Happy (late) New Year to everyone!

    I'm fond of the holiday desserts I've discovered here so far. Maybe a little too fond. Luffy, come eat the rest of this chocolate pecan pie before I make myself sick.

    A question for the rest of you, if you're bored and want to help a man out. What dessert would you recommend I try if you only had one pick? I have a soft spot for chocolate and citrus, but I'm willing to try anything once.

    Hey folks! I know the weather has thrown us all for a loop but we at Mushroom Hill want to make your stay as festive and easy as possible! I'm Matthew, I'm a part of organizing the activities here, you'll see Talcott helping me, and together we are going to have SO much Christmas cheer.

    You'll find printed schedules with events going on for as long as you're here--I'm personally really looking forward to the gingerbread house demo and have just barely resisted eating the materials so there will be things to build with! Later, we'll have a full on competition, which is going to be SO good, both artists and chefs really get into it! We also have ice skating lessons at the pond, there are firepits that we'll have s'mores and hot chocolate, in the lobby we'll be decorating the tree and singing carols, there are ornament and garland creating stations that will popup, and there's sledding, snowboarding, and skiing for all levels! And! We're super lucky to have yoga practice going on twice in the morning, afternoon, and evening. We'll also have opportunities to give back to the community by making Christmas cards and putting together baskets of goodies, because it's important for everyone to feel seen and cared for at all times. :)

    There's so much going on, and it'll happen for as long as the snow sticks around, so don't feel like you're going to miss anything! Of course, you can just explore and discover everything on your own, but if you need an excuse to get to know people, come hang out! :))))))))))))

    Elves

    Is that Tinsel AND Whimsy here?? Christmas Connections sent two of the best! You guys rock around the Christmas tree. :)))))))))) The Big Guy put me on a mission but if you need anything, even just cookies and cocoa, just say so, I'll be right there!!

    I have overused the indoor plumbing options in this flat, learned how to use the elevator by myself, and located where to make the letters capitals on this little phone thing. A feat, truly.

    Tessa has shown me what a Kindle is but I have to admit I appreciate the physical heft of books. She has also given me her list of bodice rippers and I do trust her taste in reading material. Does anyone else have any recommendations? Bodices being ripped is not a necessary requirement, but I will judge you accordingly on a scale that is predetermined by me, and unbeknownst to you.
