sixty-third labyrinth

[(broken) Anti-First Gen filter]

It has come to my attention recently that not enough of our new arrivals are being given the proper information. It's their right as much as ours to know the history of this place and exactly what they might have to expect from it in the future.

There is a rather dwindling number of us who are even aware of Lois' report, which is in large part the problem. I thought perhaps it might help to form a committee dedicated to circulating that information, since this duty shouldn't fall to any one person. Perhaps they could simply mention it over the journals every couple of months, or even make paper copies to distribute. As long as people know.

For the rest of you, the report in question is [reference to page # here]

[(broken) Chimera filter]

I was wondering if you all could come up to headquarters to talk. It doesn't have to be all at once, but, I received a personal request from a friend that was wondering if a magical solution to a particular problem could be found. I don't have any ideas, but one of you might.

[While he could just ask over the journal, he wants to see their reaction up close. It's too good to resist]

[After he gets the dictation from Felix, Jade seems a tad confused, but what does he have to lose? He heads up to the headquarters and pokes his head in before he looks about for Felix.]

-Broken Chinera Filter- and kinda placeholder

[radiantwingedone]

Not likely to be of use...

[ But he can head up anyway. ]

[Felix looks up from his journal and waves Jade into the office where he's sitting]

Ah, General, thank you for coming. Have a seat and I'll try to make this quick.

-broken- Chimera filter

[lord_wizard]

Oh, I'm not so sure of that~

Come find me in the office when you're ready.

[(broken) Chimera filter]

[strangewonders]

Oh? I was going to head over to do some work anyway. I'll be round in a bit.

[And by 'a bit' he apparently means two damned hours, but when he does show up, he looks fabulous, and that's what matters, right?]

[lord_wizard]

[Well he can't fault him entirely for that, to be honest, though he didn't exactly plan on standing around here all day.

He's had enough time to order up lunch, by the looks of things when Howl finally decides to arrive]

Howl...

[kungfuwitch]

I think sharing Lois' report is a fantastic idea, Felix. Even better if we added to it.

On the other matter I'm free now if you'd like me to drop by.

[strangewonders]

Hello, Felix. You're looking well today. What's this about a problem that needs solving?

[Nope, no remorse at all. He forever operates on Howl Time]

-broken- Felix filter

[originalcopy]

Hey... thanks for posting this. One less thing on my to-do list.

Good luck with your friends little problem.

[he's not sure what it is... but usually when a problem is talked about in such a side-long fashion that means it's embarrassing or amusing... or both.]

-broken- Chimera filter -> action but someone's journal is open

[radiantwingedone]

...

[ If the journal could pick up expressions, Duke would be giving a 'if you really think that' one.

And why does "when you're ready" feel ominous?

But he'll be there soon enough, stepping into the main room of Chimera and ... listening. ]

yes good

[lord_wizard]

[Felix is chatting away on the journal in the other room, most likely pertaining to his other order of business]

-broken- Church filter

[lord_wizard]

I do occasionally attempt to be a man of my word.

[....wait a second...]

I'm sorry, but, I don't recall inviting you into Chimera so exactly how did you see that message?

Sneaky eaves droppers without intending to-

[radiantwingedone]

[ Duke heads over carefully, trying to avoid finding anything with his shins or knees, and then finding the door. That part is a little easier. ]

... Felix?

-broken- Felix filter

[originalcopy]

I don't know... it was just there.

I assumed it was for everyone to see.

[lord_wizard]

[The off-hand compliment softens the blow a little, so he lets out a breath]

It's not something I've ever tried to handle myself, but the situation as it was broached to me is this - a woman here has recently come into some powers which make her much stronger than normal, and she is concerned about accidentally damaging her partner in the bedroom.

-broken- Chimera filter

[lord_wizard]

Well, I'm not much of a scholar, to be honest. I thought I might see if there are more qualified people in the castle for that kind of job. More qualified and conscientious, I might have to say.

[Oh no. Posing this question to Phoebe seems less funny]

Oh...that's...it's something of an...intimate situation...

[strangewonders]

[That gets an arched eyebrow out of him, and then an amused smirk]

That is quite the predicament, isn't it? A few solutions spring to mind but, ah, nothing I could whip up without some research first.

[Because he knows a great many spells for a great many things, some more wholesome than others, but this is a situation even he hasn't encountered before]

Is it a very... urgent matter?

[He's absolutely not going to laugh.]

[ action ]

[peacockherald]

[ Vanyel appears not to long after, blinking at the other in mild curiosity.]

You had a problem you wished to discuss?

-broken- Chimera filter forever

[kungfuwitch]

If there are no takers I might be able to help with that. Hermione may be interested, too, since I'm fairly sure she keeps her own notes for herself.

[she pauses]

An "intimate" situation? Ooookay.

[lord_wizard]

[Felix is smirking too]

I don't imagine either of them will expire from frustration, no, but I can sympathize with the plight.

[lord_wizard]

I was hoping Professor Sage might be interested, as large portion of the report was originally built on her notes, though I'm not sure she's still around.

[He clears his throat]

That's one way to put it. I'm not sure you know about any application of sex and magic, but I promised someone I would ask, so...

[ action forever ]

[lord_wizard]

[Felix looks up from the journals as Vanyel walks in. He sets is aside and folds his hands on his lap]

Well, I think predicament might be a better word, but yes.

Can you think of any spells that might prevent a woman from damaging a man during sex?

[lord_wizard]

[He starts to write the filter and then...stops.]

Saints and powers. Well, this is going to cause some problems.

[originalcopy]

Huh?

Something wrong with your journal?

[lord_wizard]

[Well at least he can hear you coming, Duke. He sets the journal down and comes over]

Duke. Glad you could come. Come sit.

[He's sort of silently offering to lead Duke to a chair, as there are far too many walking hazards in this room]
