(lunae calamitas) texts from last... dimension???

[fallingsand]

texts from last dimension

(aka everyone got one of Bruno's pen pal journals and now there's no escape)

HOW DOES IT WORK:

1. Your character can write a message to everyone by just starting with some form of "To everyone".


2. "To everyone" messages and their replies can be seen by all (and therefore threadjacked) until privated.


3. You can go private/send private messages by starting a message/comment with "To [name]".


4. The pages are endless, the journal will never end.


5. That's it! Enjoy?

to everyone

To Everyone,

Hello, this is Bruno.

I am writing to see if this actually works now that everyone is apart.

Thanks,
Still Bruno

[divineth]

To Bruno,

Verily, ‘tis operating as intended. Full glad am I for this remarkable artifact.

How farest thee and thy family?

[ Urianger!!!! ]

To Urianger,

I'm glad it is! I guess if none of the others work, at least we can still talk.

What to know something wild? Everything turned out fine! Turns out everything needed to be destroyed so we could fix what was wrong! Sure wish the vision hadn't decided to be so dang vague about it, though.

Greetings, Bruno.

I bring you good tidings — by which I mean that this truly has worked on my end as well.

I do hope you have continued to have been well, and are having a good time of it no matter where you are currently as of now.

Jing Yuan!

Hello!

I'm so glad this is working out. That's such a relief. I was told it would, but there wasn't any way to test it.

I've been doing well! Everything turned out alright with my family and I'm even helping to rebuild the village now.

What about you? How have you been?

- Bruno

[dyingtohealyou]

To Bruno,

Seems like it! How'd things go when you got back?

-Ahito

[fallingsand]

[ Oh, he's writing quickly to reply to this one. Ahito! ]

To Ahito,

I'm so glad to hear from you!

Everything turned out fine! Better than I ever could have hoped for! Turns out everything HAD to be destroyed like that. We needed a new foundation, literally and metaphorically, you know?

My family was happy to have me back. I've even been helping rebuild.

What about you? How have you been?

- Bruno

this is somehow a misfire dwbi

[fellheart]

[ is it even possible to mass text everyone or misfire by accident in one of these? it is now. congrats on your meandering almost half asleep seeming scrawl; half of it is practically illegible, the subject seems to jump around, there's bits and pieces of spell circles and formulae interspersed here and there, but at some point near the end it starts looking just tidy enough to make out: ]

...still to be looked into:
- provisions to last at least a fortnight's worth of travel, stop by nearest town
- check on the temples near Raqote, further from capital + previous leadership? see if worth establishing anything
- stop by Koptos (trade hub + current gossip)
- information networks still functioning? too risky to make use of without revealing self
- clearing out the Table

[fallingsand]

[ how did someone manage to break the journals already hello??? ]

Did you mean to send this to everyone? Are you okay?

- Bruno

[fellheart]

Ah.

It appears that I may have used the wrong journal. No, that wasn't actually intended for everyone. My mistake.

[ this is in as messy a scrawl as it has been; someone's not bothering to go to the effort of making their handwriting (any more) presentable but hey, bruno's already managed to read this much. ]

[leewards]

Mistook this for your personal journal, did you?

[fellheart]

They're both brand new and it's been a long week few months day. Seems I remembered wrong.

[ and he's hexed them both to hell and back for protection so he was too snzzzz and distracted to check for which was which. whoops. ]

[foresightis2020]

[ Well, consider him faintly amused at seeing all of this. ]

Quite busy, aren't you?

I hope you have had time to enjoy yourself in the midst of your hard work.

[fellheart]

'Enjoying myself?' What a strange and novel thought. I can't say I've ever heard of the concept.

[dyingtohealyou]

Wrong journal.

-Ahito

[leewards]

Did you know? Traveling is actually quite good for the soul, if your magic and wallet can afford it. Some things you simply cannot learn indoors. But still, there is no place like home.

[fallingsand]

To the person writing about traveling,

I have thought about traveling now that the valley is open, but it will have to wait until we finish rebuilding first.

What's the most exciting place you've traveled to so far?

- Bruno

[leewards]

Difficult to say. Perhaps yet another forest of everlasting winter host to many a battle with dragons, or perhaps the grassy plains surrounded by mountain ranges, watched over by statues of warring gods.

[foresightis2020]

Wonderful. I have always wished to do something like it myself, and I do agree having the opportunity is splendid...

Though I had imagined it happening under different circumstances, I will not look down on such a glorious chance. In addition, I do hope you continue to enjoy yourself in your many travels.

[leewards]

Tied down because of your responsibilities, are you? Still general?

Several months post-LC

[troublereduction]

Update: Me and Phil ain't dead yet, just busy as hell.

[ If you can't guess who this is just from the cadence of the writing, then I don't know what to say. ]

[fallingsand]

[ Day... ]

To Joyous Day,

Well, that's good to hear. Glad you thought to finally let us know.

What have you two been up to?

- Bruno

[foresightis2020]

Greetings Day,

It is good to hear from you.

Has it been the 'good' kind of busy?

~ Jing Yuan

[dyingtohealyou]

To Everyone,

Still alive out there?
