Two Programming Wizards -- Backdated to earlier in the afternoon
[There’s a soft rustle as the journal opens, and Dairine’s excited voice can be heard, though somewhat muted as she is facing away.] Seriously. They need to hear about this.
[Then she clears her throat, and her voice comes in louder.]
Hello, my fellow Paradisians! Have you finally started dethawing yet? I hope so because I don’t know about you, but after spending the last week or so huddled around a wizard’s fire I’m ready for a little adventure! And I just so happen to have a brand new map of the Insolitus. Me and Alan are gonna check it out. Any other takers?
[Alan opens his own journal rather than moving to speak into Dairine’s.]
Those who are interested, we’ll be leaving the morning of the 27th. We’ll make it as far as we can before we return on the night of the 29th. That gives us three days.
A friend of mine [thank you, Gibson] thought that somehow the Castle’s magic came to the Castle through the Insolitus. There’s also the Lost Room to think about, not to mention what might be past it. Anyone who’s been on an expedition into the Insolitus before would be a big help, too. I’ve never gone farther in than a half hour’s walk.
[His voice is a little bit muffled as he looks to Dairine rather than the journal.]
Remember, we’re gonna need to do a little more research than just the map before we head out.
[Dairine makes a face and rolls her eyes.] Yeah, sure. Whatever gets us in there.
[Alan raises both eyebrows and his mouth stretches into a line as he gives her a stern, deadpan look. She might be extremely intelligent, but sometimes her youth trumped that. Alan looks back at his journal, taking in what’s been transcribed for a moment before speaking again.]
So. Anyone who wants to come with us should meet us in front of the Insolitus at nine on the morning of the 27th.
Be sure to come prepared! [Dairine pipes in.] The Insolitus can be a tricky place, and we’ll be in there awhile. Mustard and bologna sandwiches won't cut it.
Keep it light, too. We’ll be doing a lot of walking, and carrying your entire room on your back won’t be very conducive to traveling. Stick to the necessities.
If you have any questions, feel free to ask them. Better to know what to expect than to come unprepared, especially because the Insolitus likes to change itself around.
Alan! Just scare them off, why don't ya.
[Alan’s expression remains stoic, but his pitch does rise just a little, a bit defensive. You sound way too much like Flynn, Dairine.]
I’m just making sure they know what they’re getting into.
[Dairine laughs.] I know, I know. [She’s only teasing, gosh.]
Right. [Alan rolls his eyes, but the slight smile that tugs at his lips even whilst he’s trying to appear stern shows it’s meant good-naturedly.] Well, we’ll see you then. In the meantime, have a happy holiday.
((Open invitation for those who would like to goBit hunting exploring. Alan is blue and Dairine is green! Exploration log here!))
