Gathering of Minds

[waterproofed]

Whether you just showed up yesterday or you've been here for years, I think we can all agree that Paradisa is a strange place. Lots of weird stuff goes on around here. We've been to space and high school and towns from all over the world, and that's just the stuff I know about. Plus all those expeditions and discoveries we've made since we started exploring beyond the castle.

I say we all need to get together and talk about this stuff. Share what you learned on the expeditions, talk about your experiences when the castle takes us off to a new place, heck, I'm even willing to mention my losses and gaining back memories from my first time here... I think it'd help a lot if we were all on the same page with stuff.

Just as an example, I heard recently some people don't even know about the pool in the castle. Or how about the stables, or that abandoned outdoor theater where I keep my boats? See, this is the kind of stuff we need to talk about. So I hope you'll all consider coming and just hashing everything out. Better to do it while the castle's recharging, or whatever it does in between all the crazy stuff. I'm thinking the courtyard might be big enough for all of us but it depends on who all is gonna show up.

Count me in.

[waterproofed]

Cool. See you there.

[onehundred]

You are?

[waterproofed]

I am Percy. Been here about three years.

[pint_sized_carnivore]

Heh. Sounds like a good idea! I'm in.

[waterproofed]

See you there.

[birdorcage]

That sounds like a wonderful idea.

[waterproofed]

Yeah, I think it'll help everyone. Not just the newer people.

[birdorcage]

I'm one of the newest, I think. Do people find themselves here often?

[waterproofed]

Now and then. I think it's not as frequent as in the past, but we still get some new arrivals sometimes.

[somanylyrics]

There's a pool?!

[waterproofed]

Yep. I like using the lake but other people probably like the pool better.

[somanylyrics]

I haven't seen much yet, because I just got kidnapped here the other day. I like swimming, but I also wanna find the duck pond.

[patching_up]

I don't know if I'll have a lot to contribute... I don't really leave the castle very often. But I'd really like to come! If that's okay. There's a lot I think I'm missing out on in a big place like this...

[waterproofed]

Of course it's okay! You want me to come get you and bring you down?

[patching_up]

Oh-- sure! I'm not doing anything right now. It'd be nice, so long as it's not inconvenient for you or anything.

[lord_wizard]

I'm currently drafting a report of the last expedition. It should be ready soon.

[waterproofed]

That's great and all, but some of us can't read that well. Or at all.

[lord_wizard]

The journals can read things out to you if you have problems in that area. [He doesn't mention his brother does exactly this, but this is how he knows]

[the_effect_she_has]

I'm in, popular kid.

[waterproofed]

Figured you might show up.

Dictated

[the_effect_she_has]

I'm in it for the free pastries. I can never resist a good roll.

[unhand]

[Gonna just ignore most of this and focus on the important part here.]

You've got boats?

[waterproofed]

[you have the best priorities, Hook]

Yep, three of them. I built them for one of our expeditions.

[unhand]

Where do you sail them? Is there an ocean in this land? [Or SOMETHING larger than the duck pond.]
