Either I can't see tears anymore, or tears just don't exist here. With the reading I've done, it looks like it's likely... the former. It's probably my loss.

I used to be able to open tears, windows into other worlds. Enter them and take things from them, as well. I suppose it makes sense that this place wouldn't allow me to do that. Finding an exit would be all too easy.

[A sigh.]

I was hoping my second entry would be a happier one, for those of you that want to leave.

Sounds about right for this place, really. Taking away yet another escape route for us all.

[birdorcage]

However, it certainly is allowed to throw us wherever it pleases.

[mal_addict]

Oh yes, it's one rule for us, another rule entirely for the castle itself.

[birdorcage]

And there's really not a person behind all of this?

[wolfchild]

Tears? Like...how?

[birdorcage]

If you mean how I can do it, I'm not sure. I just can. When I'm not in this place, that is.

[wolfchild]

What do they look like?

[courageous_wit]

That makes sense. I have a power to transport myself from one place to another, but it only works in the Live Zone.

[birdorcage]

I'm sure we're not the only ones with powers like that taken away. That makes it all the more frustrating.

[courageous_wit]

"Frustrating" is how I would describe many things of Paradisa.

[hellofist]

Could you... see anywhere?

[Seriously this sounds like the most awesome power ever.]

[birdorcage]

Anywhere I wanted, usually. It's not very exciting, most of the time.

[hellofist]

You could look... at anywhere you wanted, and that's not... exciting, to you?

[written forever]

[thraxios]

That does sound like a loss, I'm sorry to say.

How have you been finding the castle otherwise?

she'll dictate back

[birdorcage]

Otherwise, it's been quite amazing. I seem to have appeared at the right time.

[thraxios]

You enjoyed the dinosaurs, I take it?

[Dictated]

[therealrisette]

You've been to other worlds before?

[Rise sounds pretty surprised... most people here only know one world...]

I guess... if that's your loss, at least you know what it is.

forever

[birdorcage]

Not as different as this one, but more like different times.

It's strange to think I can't open tears here.

[therealrisette]

Can other people where you're from open tears?

[Rise's kind of curious about this ability... especially given that, in her world, she has some rare abilities of her own.]

Have you visited a lot of places with them?

[She could ask a dozen more questions, let's be honest. But she at least gives Elizabeth a chance to answer.]

[ofhope]

Tears in...reality? You could go between worlds at will? You must have amazing stories.

[birdorcage]

Not always at will. Different timelines I could do... and it's not a guarantee I can--or could, I suppose I should say, travel back and forth.

[ofhope]

So you've seen the past and the future?

[unexpected_adventures]

Your loss is....tears? How strange. [No, Bilbo not those kind of tears. Not the ones that come out of your eyes. Hobbits.]

Do you mean when you cry, you don't feel any tears come out?

[birdorcage]

[A small laugh.]

Tears. Like tears in paper.

[unexpected_adventures]

Oh, I see. So, not the ones that you cry when you are upset? [He felt a little silly now.] You can....create tears in paper?
