Just Wondering...

[marikunin]

Have any of you ever formed pathways into another person's mind? We talk to two people every single day on the phone-they're multiple as well-and thus our others and soulbonds freely travel between minds...just wondering.

It's a theoretical possibility with our system, but we don't allow outsiders. My boyfriend has tried to come through and visit us a few times, but apparently we're well hidden and closed off.

I don't think it's uncommon for multiple systems in close proximity to share the same mental space to some extent.

We haven't, but have heard of others who have. It wouldn't surprise me if people close to each other can get some sort of "psychic" connection, multiple or singlet.

Well, happened. We're just getting more careful about things as we're getting more experiences.

It could get pretty messy, organization-wise and emotions-managing wise, so we're not allowing visitors if not feeling stable as a collective enough at that time/not having fronting team strong enough to handle eventual more backspace-d moves. But that's, I think, the same rule of thumb we have for visitors from worlds that are linked to our system, not pertaining only to 'here place' plural groups.

We've heard of traveling before.

Not quite sure what to make of it, or to believe its real.

We currently do it with other systems.

Our scientists had a hard-enough time accepting Cross-Time travel and Metanormals. The idea of this particular form of Cross-Time travel would make many of them completely disbelieve it even when talking about it in earshot of one of the very people that's from that kind of thing (as happened with SPC^Craimar one time, when two scientists were talking in Utawali around him and he didn't quite get what they were saying, namely that people from multiple systems aren't even real and hence can't travel. At the same time as a member of the SPC is standing not too far from them).

A question.

[freddie2431]

Seeing as how you seem to have something like soul-bonds with a couple of widely known historical figures (if I'm not mistaken - please forgive me if I am), does this facilitate visiting other systems ?
As in, if the more famous (or infamous - whatever) "bonds" show up, are they more easily recognizable.....or something ?

I'm not quite sure how to word what I'm asking, I guess. I'm just curious.

Actually, no they aren't. If they were from our own novels maybe, if the person involved happens to recognize them. We can have evil bastards from human fiction running rampant and nobody recognizes them because the culture here does not correspond with Earth. That, in fact, was how we had an omnicidal maniac like Sukteh the Destroyer wandering around and absolutely nobody knew who he was.

....

And then he pissed off Revcekar and got blown to atoms. Basically, if the soulbond comes from human fiction, most of the time the answer is no. We have no real reason to know in-depth the fiction of this timeline. Which sometimes, I'll admit, puts us in a bit of a spot of trouble but no more than that.
