[Jaunt -> Walkabout]
[Hopefully the 'Goodly Ones' have escaped the church vortex for the time being when this message comes through.]
Hello, presumably-the-walkabout, since there's enough people missing over here to point to one. This is Naoki. I can keep this line up for fifteen minutes or so, since it has others patched through.
We did end up in Questing Country - and they were expecting us, which is weird. Apparently after we all went missing at once after the Valence quest the Oracles got curious and did some digging. There's some other stuff with three timelines converging, but we're still learning about that.
Where did you guys end up? And for the people who requested this bridge on this side, is Alcuin-san available to talk?
(OOC: Another nine jauntside folks can jump in on this bridge, as two spots are already taken by Thorne and Delaunay. Let me know on plurk or by PM if you want in!)

[He might have made several circuits of the meadow trying to see if he'd overlooked you Infiltrating in the crowd.]

[There's a slight pause before he adds,] And for some reason that I do not understand, it has taken twenty years of age from me.
no subject
Ah. Oh, yes, I expect that would be a dream form, of sorts. Your body shifts to how you believe it would be best suited for the task of protecting the world of dreams. It is how Naoto changes forms, as I understand it.
...Will you kindly look after Félicité for me? She is not here with me, which means she must be in liminal space, and she must be furious with me for missing my chance to return to her home with her. She has access to the Network now, so she ought to be able to speak with you despite being my Familiar.
no subject
And yes, of course, I will look after Félicité for you. Fidélité and I will start looking for her as soon as Konishi ends this bridged communication.
... I do not know yet what advice to give you on your dilemma on Sunday Island, but I will think upon it and I am sure Konishi will help us reach you again come next week.
no subject
With luck I myself shall have a great deal more information by then, which should help my dilemma. Truthfully, your situation is more dire and affects a greater number of people. I can work in chains if need be.
no subject
... chains? [He means that metaphorically, right?]
no subject
Mm. If one is discovered to be a false god, it is blasphemy of the highest order. Still, they do not kill. They place magicked chains upon you and force you to labor under them. They make the work much more intensive than it otherwise might be, as I understand it. They are very keen on hard work here. ...I can manage it, Anafiel. It is not my first choice, but at need, I have the strength and the will to survive it.
no subject
That sounds wretched. Please, if you think that you cannot bear to stay there, tell us. We will find some way to rescue you.
no subject
[Very firm on that point. Of course at the moment his role model is Joscelin, who spent like two weeks chained in a dog kennel in the Skaldic winter, but.]
public + private (protection)
[But he will worry for you, even if he will do his best to conceal it.]
[Private]
Perhaps it is vanity, but it is a pity you cannot see the body that I have been given.
Private x2 forever
I should like to see myself, I admit. Perhaps next time you might find a mirror and show me. Or Thorne might share a memory of you when we are together again. Or... who knows? Perhaps you will keep it after this and be able to resume the form at need. Or desire.
I know you are beautiful beyond compare. You always have been.

[There comes the phantom sensation of a butterfly's kiss upon the inner wrist.]
Re: Private x2 forever
[The sensation of a return kiss upon the opposite wrist.]
Re: Private x2 forever
....I miss you so terribly already.
[Odds are high that he did not mean to broadcast that last, aching thought.]
Re: Private x2 forever
I miss you too, my beautiful boy.
