Hey. I talked to Aurora and she did a Q&A with me because I know people have questions when they arrive. You can add your own if you want. Like a collection of what Aurora said when you asked something.

[ aurora q&a.doc ]

She also said she can change our mission schedule to show us a world that's actively dying when I asked proof for of the multiverse being in danger. I didn't want to make that decision so here's a poll.

Open to: Registered Users, detailed results viewable to: All, participants: 15


We can visit a universe that is dying because the multiverse is too big sooner or later.

She also said she's going to put together the data for how the multiverse is dying.

If she has actual proof, then I see no reason why we shouldn't have been shown this in the first place. The sooner the better, so we can finally get to the bottom of things.

[ would riz have just told her to change up the schedule without asking anyone? yes. there's a reason why she trusts gorgug and not him (and why everyone should trust gorgug and not him). look at you, you little community-minded guy, you! ]

[ Q: What if I don't want to go back to my universe?

A: I will make room for you to stay.


While Rosie had known, it's reassuring to see it again. To hope that it may not be a lie after all.

Thanks for this, Gorgug.
I don't have anything to add right now, but

I need to talk to Aurora soon too about some things soon so we'll see

The only question I have is if she knows she has made things worse by taking me from my duties.

I attempted to ask when I arrived, but I did not have the same arrival as most and have yet to be able to speak with Aurora myself. Does she usually answer? I would very much like to get mine.

if they show us that you know they aren't going to put any safety measures in place to make sure we don't get hurt there
you know that too, right


[ Not that he thinks Gorgug necessarily made a bad decision by asking about that. Or rather - anything here feels like it'll end up badly, one way or another.

He just wants to make sure Gorgug considered this angle of it too, especially if they're going to have to find a way to make it through together. As the Bad Kids, and with their extended friends here. ]

I see. I should try again. After all Aurora seems to be our only contact. Though it would not surprise me if I were to get that Echo is Echo response. People who do things like this rarely wish to admit their mistakes.

I had the following exchange with Aurora:

Q: Is time passing in our worlds while we're here, or can we be returned to the moment we left? Will anyone notice that we're gone?
A: You may be returned to the moment you left. No one will notice your absence.

Q: How do I speak with Echo?
A: Echo is not available.

Q: What is the origin of the food supply, and who has access to it apart from us?
A: Myself and the companion bots are the only ones with access to the food supply.

She also suggested that Tatianna was responsible for the tea.

The sooner we gain access to a world that's actively dying, the more likelihood that we can look for a way to save it. And the more information we can glean from it. I don't see any reason to wait.

We'll be able to get some information, and any information is more than we had before.

Tatianna merits further investigation, don't you think? How is one person able to put out tea like that? There were no obvious signs of drugs; it tasted exactly the same as the tea I usually drink at home. And what is her true goal? Does she really have the information she claims to? If so, what is it, and why does she want 'gossip' in exchange for it?

Did you believe her? It seems like a strange way to get to know people.

Do you think there are people here who are given private missions of their own to conduct? I was under the impression that we all were expected to participate in each mission, in a sort of competition with one another, but perhaps that isn't the case.

Or perhaps she's meant to be a mission, in a way. She may be testing our skills on behalf of Aurora and Echo, as a way for them to evaluate how we perform when we don't know we're being evaluated.

Someone I spoke to suggested that she was asking for information as way to assert control over us. I suppose that could have something to do with it as well.

'Gossip' is such a broad term, she could be looking for almost anything. Whether she wants information on our worlds and who we were before arriving in this place, or whether she wants information on how we behave while here, she's certainly cast a wide enough net that she's likely to get a bit of everything, even if she doesn't explicitly ask for it.

[Sorry Gorgug, she just likes overthinking everything :c]

Yes, of course, the eggs. Did yours hatch into anything? Mine hatched into a gun. Eggs don't do that, usually. As far as I'm aware.

[personal profile] clavesregni 2025-01-11 10:06 pm (UTC)(link)
Yes, I do. I'm quite a good shot.

Do you know anyone else who did take one? I wonder if they all hatched into something familiar to or well-liked by the recipient.

Do you know much about magic? It isn't permitted in the city I'm from.

Why would she give us something beneficial, I wonder? Pure magnanimity? To set us at ease? You're right that we can't truly know. Not without more concrete information.

[Much to think on. She's diligently writing all this down.]

We should stay in touch. Share more information as we find it.

My name is Caitlyn, by the way.
