onlystraw: Jonathan comes to look for Norman. He's back, now, isn't he? Why is he still missing? Is he home? Please? He knocks on the door.
osborn_journals: By some peculiarity of the Nexus (and Nexus-exposed properties), there is a nearly always a portal to wherever there needs to be one. Though Norman is hidden away in his study, he is also behind the door Jon has ( Read more... )

I have just returned from the Sanctuary. While there, I lured Otto into the catacombs under false pretenses, then subjected him to an EMP burst to deactivate his arms, tied bandages around his face, before taping up both his biological and metal arms and kicking him around a bit, then leaving him there. If he has not returned, yet, he is likely ( Read more... )

Heh. Ahehehehaheh. Hah! The Nexus. Better than any other damn spectator sport, I swear.

I don't think he'll be able to manage it, though. No. Not this, not his idiom. Will have to get ready, for when it all comes apart. There will be weaknesses, and there will be openings. I have to be ready to take whatever advantage I can ( Read more... )

We talked about about chemistry and magic and the older me, and there was a lot of weird stuff about Hermes and some girl. And about Lovecraft -- which I really think ( Read more... )

"Another day, another dollar." That's what father says in the morning, when he's in a good mood. Which isn't very often, lately. But here, it's not another dollar, it's another book. There's Hermes' library, and this nice woman in a strange suit gave me one -- Superstring Theory for Dummies, it's called. (The people in the Sanctuary explained ( Read more... )

I fell asleep last night, and when I woke up I was here. They call it a Nexus -- like parallel universes, except there's more than two, and they all come together in the middle. Like this. (I don't know what that thing is, but if you pretend every string is a universe, the Nexus would be in the middle.) There are people and things from all over ( Read more... )
