Chandra will return this weekend! I know it's been a long wait again; thanks for patience.

I've read a few part way through when I've had time. I think I've read Jordan's the furthest so far (probably about 50 pages in). Now I feel the need to go back and read Elijah's thread, since I haven't read that one at all yet.

Don't feel an obligation to, but feel free. The benefit you get from that will be mostly play style, while some of the others help you with the setting a bit more. Thought Elijah is pretty much the first 'main' player in the game and a template for successful play. Some threads are a lot more helpful than others, though that's in some part a function of length. I consider the 'main' threads to be Tereza, Jordan, Graham, Peter, and Elijah. Elijah are Graham are dead threads, unfortunately, which is sad, because both were in fun situations.

ROTFLMAO! Peter does not deserve that. Especially in light of recent events for Tereza. Which she has been wanting to do for a while now but got delayed by dragon.

Speaking of Tereza she wasn't joking about thinking they'll kill her. If that does happen I'll have to make a new character.

Glad to hear it and I hope nothing interferes with it.

I think it kinda depends on if we can detect each other with out Detect (Supernatural.) Although I will sense Haley's magic if she uses any within my abilities which could cause some awkward questions depending on when and where I felt it.

That said if you look at my thread the reason I'm working for them is that I feel obligated to after signing a contract with them in order to get a Dragon to lay off his own claim of ownership to me. Suffice it to say this was a strong and not very nice Dragon, though he did save my life so he's not all bad. So one evil for a lesser evil. She wouldn't intentionally expose and could actually prove quite helpful depending on some stuff.

Thought: I will be greatly amused if I'm bunked with you. Chandra does have a room to herself after all.

Logistically, which thread would it appear in?

It does sound intriguing. Dangerous to Chandra's long-term plans, but intriguing nonetheless, especially if Tereza were to become a passive ally. ("Won't help you but won't expose you.") The greatest danger would seem to be accidental exposure, if T. were to run into both Chandras at different times.

Of course, if they somehow managed to converse and part without realizing each other's nature, that could be quite funny. And maybe a little sad.

Unless he wants to start A new thread I'd say yours seeing as you've been there longer. It's more like Tereza would be intruding on Chandra's story than the other way round imo.

Could probably just post a link in my thread to where I'm introduced to yours and another one OOC back to my thread when I leave.

Works for me. Let's get our stiff-necked medical student off-world and see where this flies.

Lets do it. I'm interested to see how the two interact. I am confident enough that the plot will just thicken instead of falling apart.

The bunking idea occurred to me as well. Its a good simple way to arrange things, and its completely in keeping with the weird 'things just happen' effect that follows the dreamers. I'm interested in who will figure things out first. Dreamers won't passively detect each other. I don't think there will be much chance of them not figuring things out though.

Logistically, I was planning to quote relevant parts into each thread. cross linking the two threads at the start of the action is also a good idea. I'll probably do both. Chandra's thread is a good 'home thread' for this, I agree. I'll link things up when the timing is just right.
