If you fuck up the kitchen, then you should do the dishes (Later in the week)

Conducting can't be healed, but the damage it causes - impulsiveness and the compulsion to meme - can, while still making us utterly dauntless and incapable of being paralyzed by shame, fear, or doubt. Partitioning your thought processes in combination with advanced psychic shielding allows you to stay in contact with the Conductor Network safely. This will probably also help the people working on decoding the fractal do it safely, but I can't absolutely guarantee that.

Sensory Conditioning helps with the compulsion to meme, as well. It's one reason that Paraiba hasn't turned yet. Protecting the Conditioned Diaphoron is now a priority; defer to Paraiba on how.

Speaking of, IOU one deinfiltration, Gil. Just show me how it's done, and who you want restored.

Yes, this is Deedee; yes, I'm a Conductor, still, and when I'm in the driver's seat I'm the Conductor of Heart; yes, Leah has heard all of this from her end; no, there is no risk of infection from talking to me, or her. Not any more.

Also: is it just me, or does Questing Country have a definite resemblance to Skaia?

A dreamworld from a particular... it's difficult to describe what Homestuck is or was; it was an extremely innovative, multimedia work at the time that was only possible with a fairly mature Internet. Suffice to say there are a number of resemblances between the dream of Skaia from Homestuck and the dream of Questing Country here.

I'd love to show it to you, but given how densely packed it is with pataphorical injokes, that seems like a terrible idea at the moment. Maybe after the Jaunt.

[And all without going "let me tell you about Homestuck."]

Hey Anafiel. Yes, she is. She deserves none of this, and now that I've shielded her from making things worse, I can start doing the same for the other Conductors.

Oh, Homestuck. I am peripherally aware of such. I have not actually read the narrative myself, given that it is only on the internets, as I have been assured, but I have heard it referenced before. Two of Thorne's hooded jackets have symbology from it. She told me once it infrequently drove her to drink.

That sounds accurate, particularly if she broke out the vodka for Act 6 when they literally doubled the cast.

Given her, I would not be surprised if it was, hmn, the same half-heart I'm sporting right now, a white vortex on black, or a... green, trilaterally symmetrical ball with three hooks. Heart, Space, Mind. Space especially since she taught us most of what we know about Liminal.

The first and second, yes. When I first met her, she wore the black one. Later, she took up wearing the dark rose.

I mean, I think Heart is a great Aspect, but I am biased.

So. The Quest for Shacklebreaker. Thanks for the help so far, and for what it's worth I agree with Allura that Leah has a chance in hell of the mace deeming her worthy. False humility is something we both need to work on, natch. It's that Resolve score slowly inching up, so to speak.

I'm pretty sure she can no-sell the claustrophobia from the castle, but we'll burn that drawbridge when we come to it.
