Hello, my name is Doctor Alex Price. Unfortunately my introduction comes with an apology and questions.

Is anyone missing any of the following items?:

-A set of keys with an LED Statue of Liberty keychain and laser pointer

-One purple scarf with silver threading woven through it and beaded fringe

-One of those shower scrubby lathering things (I don't know what they're called) made from the plastic mesh stuff. This has been destroyed, I owe you a new one. I've obtained several from the nearest dollar store in hopes of matching the color of the original.

-Several 1" buttons bearing the logos of 70s punk bands and albums, slightly dented

-A small collection of Disney souvenir pins

All of these items will be returned and/or replaced if claimed.

rift has a way of displacing these sorts of things

sometimes when people are sent home they return to the point in their respective timelines from where they were removed

no one has stopped looking for a way out

we're still looking.

[scales_and_silence]

Wish I had some of the family research on me. Though most of Grandpa Thomas's stuff's been destroyed.

[peacefulexplorer]

I wont lie, I miss my research most days as well. probably would have helped yesterday

[peacefulexplorer]

[Wait. WAIT.

Ohhhhh.]

you arrived yesterday

how did that go for you

[scales_and_silence]

Complete inability to lie.

That's been. Um.

An adjustment, considering my upbringing.

[peacefulexplorer]

ouch. my apologies- though you weren't the only one saying things you didn't want to

thankfully most people here are rather used to odd histories.

[scales_and_silence]

I was about to make a joke about the odds of the Covenant of St George existing in this reality but I'm just... not going to tempt fate that way. At all.

[peacefulexplorer]

I doubt its a possibility.

even if it were Manhattan has become fairly isolated due to the influx of spacetime distortion

frankly the rift a much more immediate concern. as you've recently witnessed

[scales_and_silence]

I imagine if they did exist here, they'd have decided the Rift was an unholy abomination and tried to purge the entire city by now.

So.

That's an encouraging thought.

[peacefulexplorer]

well hey if my old employers existed here they would have been all over this by now and they're pretty clearly not which has its ups and downs

besides i think we have enough on our plate what with lucifer and all

you know about lucifer right

[scales_and_silence]

Haven't been filled in on that one yet. Nope.

[peacefulexplorer]

oh good

long story short- yes the actual literal devil. human body. little over 6 ft, male, thinks humans are disgusting. powerful. dont piss him off. dont get his attention. probably wont care unles youre interesting enough so its generally safest to not engage

there are wards you can put up to keep him out of buildings. though ill have to ask who knows them

[scales_and_silence]

Well, somewhere my probable future brother-in-law is smirking in moral victory and isn't sure why.

I'll make a note of not doing anything that might draw any sort of demonic attention of any kind.

[peacefulexplorer]

good nnews is he doesn't take a lot of interest in humans

[Unless your name is Daniel Jackson and you've recently attracted his interest and you have no idea why.

But that would be the exception.]

but considering it is actually satan i feel like warnings are justified

[scales_and_silence]

Yeah, that seems like a good reason to be very, very cautious.

[peacefulexplorer]

well i'll see what i can do about tracking down the ward you can put up. keeps him out.
