WHO || Everyone! [ota]
WHAT || Shenanigans.  Sorry that it's covering like half a year.  Forgive me.  Let us never speak of it again.    
WHERE || Anywhere in the castle, surrounding environs, London, Andres, etc!
WHEN || Any time in Fall/Winter 2016
HOW || Actionspam

[ The castle can be a happening place, even on more mundane days. This log is for random interactions over the course of these few months. Because not everyone is into parties, ok. Characters who are not currently squired in may also post, as their characters are living in the castle awaiting their ceremonies.  This takes place after the Knights have returned from rescuing Gar in New York City, but before the planned Keijen Blade concert at the beginning of 2017.

You are encouraged to start your own threads and tag around, and feel free to threadjack into any on-going threads that aren't specified as 'closed' in the subject lines since people can enter into rooms even in the middle of what's going on. WE ARE BIG ON THREAD-JACKING HERE. You can also specify 'single thread', meaning you want only one response for all participants, rather than multi-thread, where a number of different scenes/threads can be done as replies to the top prompt.]

Too late?

[Because that is a concerning choice of words always.]

Too late for what?

[rationalizes]

The information they wanted from me - about the Shadow Gate. I didn't give them anything, but that woman--

The Mind Master. And even Blade. Both of them invaded my thoughts, and while I did everything I could to try to block them out, I've no idea whether I succeeded.

[allmydreams]

Well, whether they did or not, maybe we should prepare for the worst. That way if they do use that information to come at us, we'll be able to stop them.

[She shrugs, then smirks.]

We'll basically be next-level Girl Scouts. Always be prepared.

[rationalizes]

I don't know how we can prepare for something like that. They wanted to try to use my designs for a Shadow Gate to... to reverse it somehow, permanently seal the Veil. They'll be seeking out their own scientists, most likely, to take anything they learned and twist it to their ends. Perhaps that gives us something to look for.

[allmydreams]

[Felicity nods for a moment, before tipping her head to the side.]

Do you know who they would try and talk to? Any big names in the field other than you? Maybe we could get eyes on them somehow and see what they're up to.

[rationalizes]

I know all the names in that field - because you're practically looking at them. No one has tried to scientifically quantify magic in the same way, except for, well, Phillip, but I've no idea where he's gotten himself to.

There are other scientists with similar bents, however, even if they haven't been fixated on the idea of actually breaching the Veil like we were. I can compile a list of names.

[allmydreams]

[She nods.]

It just might be worth looking into. Maybe we can try and at least get a little bit of a head start.

[And since she wasn't invited to the big Failboat party, she'll have to keep herself busy somehow.]

[rationalizes]

It can't hurt to dispatch Knights to keep an eye on them.

[allmydreams]

I'm definitely of the opinion that it's better to be safe than sorry.

[Maybe it's time they blindside them for a chance. Not that she thinks the odds are high, but she'll take a chance over nothing at all.]

[rationalizes]

I just hope that we can prevent them from putting anyone else through... [ she trails off, as if not even wanting to verbally confront what she must have gone through ] ... Let's just hope we can end this soon.

[allmydreams]

[Felicity frowns gently, before reaching over gently and giving Gar's hand a small squeeze.]

We will. One way or another, we'll figure it out.

[rationalizes]

[ annnd fin? ]

[allmydreams]

[yep!]
