Our sun is dying. Mankind faces extinction. Seven years ago the Icarus project sent a mission to restart the sun but that mission was lost before it reached the star.

I knew a kid once who fell through and got the psychic network grafted onto the Moleskine where he wrote all his erotica. Never did live that one down.

HEY, CAPACABRA. Dmitri Lang here, your eyes on the skies and voice in the crowd, freelance certified Angel of Knowledge and regional expert and pundit for hire. Welcome to Chicago! You may have noticed that a public psychic network has attached itself to the thing you're writing in. Fortunately, it comes with access controls. They're good to know.

A simple "private" at the top of your entries will keep things from broadcasting to the masses.

Capacabra..?

Ahh, thank you. This thing is tricky to work out, I've never come across anything like this before. We don't have these back home - well nothing psychic, anyways. It's fascinating.

You'd prefer Capasteau?

Culture shock. Comes for us all, good man. Fortunately, the journal network is a useful and powerful tool with staying in touch with anyone non-mundane across the city.

Also tends to be just slightly less chaotic and noisy than one of the smaller 4chan boards, but you get used to that after a while.

Not sure which one I'd prefer to be honest.

I see. I think I'll have a little play around with it and see what happens, I'm curious. Thanks.

Perhaps.

I'm out of my comfort zone, I suppose. To be honest, I should be dead right now.

If you mean that by the whole 'I should be dead' thing... as much as I did accept dying by crashing into the Sun - I'd prefer to stay alive.

If you meant the former, feel free to challenge me to a chess mass any time you like. Ha.

dying really isn't all that bad.

No, I don't think I minded it that much to be honest. It actually felt wonderful to die at that one moment.

But right now, there's part of me that's just glad to still be around, even if I am in another world and time.

oh, so you were retconned too?

i_robert_capa June 4 2010, 21:29:26 UTC
I suppose you could say that?

the number of times they had to retcon us got a little different.

of course, we didn't have proper continuity, so that was part of it.
