First Walkabout: The Summer Solstice

The Summer Solstice
July 22nd - August 26th



It’s been half a year since one of the strangest dances on record took place at the Orrery, and the inhabitants of Nibiru, spurred by subtle religious and political shifts, have made a new discovery: a subterranean complex of Starmover origin, exposed only by an earthquake in the unstable south that opened a chasm directly over it. The Calendrical Parliament immediately claimed stewardship over it, threatening any country who moved to claim it for their own, and outfitted an expedition with representatives of all nations - not only scientists, priests, and historians, but dancers and artists, in case it has a function like the Orrery, and diplomats, in case it held any undeniable worth to the rival Colonies. Now, at the hottest time of the year, the overheated landship must shelter in the chasm and cool down, so the explorers have no choice but to remain for at least a month, mapping the alien structure and navigating their own political and personal rivalries, far away from the rest of the world…

For the Travelers who find themselves here, for the first time or the second time, infiltrating or investigating, all they know is that they still have Liminal Space and the Telepathic Network, but no sign of the other Travelers -- their Liminal Space and their Network are separate from those used by the Travelers in Questing Country. Before they wound up here, they remember a colorful vortex, like and unlike a dungeon portal, that had opened in the midst of Liminal Space, and seemed irresistibly tempting to step through and explore…

I will, i keep seeing icons I want to replace but haven't done anything about them yet.

and i mean like, she'll be mostly worried about Armin there but add that to her feelings there ... this sounds both amazing and heart crushing!

Ugh, god, I just

Imagine them sleeping together because Armin's afraid she might disappear if he lets her out of his sight.

Which he knows isn't rational, but can't help anyway

Same with her tbh about imagining Armin might disappear... So yes to the sleeping! Which is actually good because I don't imagine she sleeps much before this unless something / someone can force her to... too many nightmares etc but too much trouble to say that to Armin because she'd think she comes between him and Sansa with even saying that. <.<. Except if I use people to help with it, I guess Jean might help with that, maybe, if she lets him. or well she could ask Levi to knock her out lol but -- ugh

...and this presents an opportunity for her to discover his scars, if they're sleeping together. Oh, joy
callyourname: (♥  I wanna be brave like you)

Yep, that's gonna be fun.

I mean, she's already seeing the scars on his hand in their intro thread (poke, poke)

neverfeltthatway: (okay let's do this)
