layered net conjuration!

[incanted]

[Hey Brilliance, the welcoming committee and the new Bell are basically okay and we're going to make Jane a Device body as soon as Aegis gets back with Sue, c'mere and help.]

[Agent Honey? You back in this world?]

Comments

[mind_game]

"Yeah. Hey, if you guys make me a body to be in does that mean I have extra sortaparents? That'd be weird."

[cardistry]

Brilliance shrugs. "Up to you, I think."

[mind_game]

"I'm not even supposed to talk to you," observes Jane, as though she is remembering something from very far away, "I might scare you."

[cardistry]

"I think we can put that on hold until this thing's sorted out."

[mind_game]

"'Kay." The image of her spins around, like she's twirling. "My clocks are all messed up agaaaaaaain. It was a really long time in Alethia! And Pattern's been using my residual programs a lot and now I gotta eat them all back up agaaaaain..."

[cardistry]

Brilliance laughs.

[mind_game]

"Gems gems gems - okay those are all all right even the ones that were in the land of breaking Jane - whee - and here come the parentals, yoink!"

[autokinetic]

"Hi," says a parental.

[pythbox]

"Hi!" says another parental, hugging the first one.

[cardistry]

"Yoooooou got older," Brilliance observes, looking at Sue.

[autokinetic]

"It was four years there," says Aegis, nudging Sue in the ribs. "We're gonna have to work out how to have me publicly alive again and whether to make me look nineteen or not."

[cardistry]

"Wow, okay," says Brilliance. He grins at Sue. "Looking good."

[pythbox]

"Yes I am," says Sue, "but we're not here so you can hit on me, what's the plan? Is there a plan?"

[incanted]

"Brilliance and maybe Agent Honey are the ones who know how to make Devices, I have not actually gotten to any books about it or anything. You guys are pretty much here so we can get at Jane to put her into one. I'm - spectating basically."

[pythbox]

"Sounds good to me," shrugs Sue. He snuggles Aegis some more.

[withmypowers]

"What exactly is our goal here?" says Agent Honey.

[mind_game]

"I need to be not in Aegis - and Sue if I am at all in Sue, we don't know - and in something else," says Jane, "so the something else can stay here and not go to horrible Janebreaking worlds."

[withmypowers]

"So that's not solely a matter of Device engineering," says Agent Honey.

[cardistry]

"Nah, we'll have to wish it," says Brilliance. "But we should probably do the engineering first. Jane, any preferences about what your dormant form's gonna look like?"

[mind_game]

"Like a Janegem. Except it doesn't need to be in a piece of jewelry, I guess."

[cardistry]

"Sure, okay," says Brilliance. "We can probably even install ansible links in it."

[withmypowers]

Adularia shimmers.

[cardistry]

"So - Device body that is Jane, humanoid form with that face, Janegem dormant form, compatible with ansible installations? What am I missing?"

[mind_game]

"Should I have any add-ons like you do? Like your coinsorter? Am I going to be able to do Rainbow magic?"

[cardistry]

"You're going to be - oh," says Brilliance. "Yeah, shit - complex Devices kind of need wielders, you probably don't want that. The whole point of this is that you should be tucked up safe in the Belltower, not running around doing magic with somebody."
