This is Cassandra Igarashi. Leave a message.

Of course I am. That’s what I was making that post about- but people kept being dipshits anyway, and now we’ve got MORE to deal with.

Truly it never ends.

[ Yes, she is frustrated. ]

Yeah.

Some of it is... even weirder.

Someone here found comics with their lives depicted in them. Accurately.

That one's new. But is it from their world? Or something else entirely?

I haven't gotten that info yet. The conversation is moving slow.

At least the fact that it’s still going on tells us whether or not we have to keep worrying about it. Not that I’d stop, but I’m sure some people would.

Indeed. This is something different, and it worries me.

This whole place worries me, sometimes.

[ He rubs his face, feeling tired. ]

What, only sometimes? You haven't really adjusted to living here unless you're in a state of worry every waking moment.

I'm paranoid, but I rarely let myself worry.

I guess I will learn.

How can you be one and not the other? You just glide through life, looking over your shoulder all the time?

Generally, I take precautions, then choose to seek hope.

See, when you put it like that you make it sound like it’s easy.

Oh, its never that. I've despaired before, badly. But I've come back from, it. The long way around.

Also, I just learned that the comics are, indeed, from their world.

Apparently, they were celebrities in their world. Celebrity superheroes.

Good fucking lord. At least I didn't have any comic books made about me in my world....

Well. Not official ones. But let's not get into that bullshit.

Alright. Sounds rough, even so. I would not ever want to be a celebrity, of any kind.

This place weird em out when I'm recognized.

Sorry, but you're an imPort. There's inevitably fanfiction with you in it somewhere.

[ I forget that sometimes. The whole being famous here, now.

It makes me very... odded out when I remember. ]

The fact that you have to remember means the press isn’t literally breathing down your neck yet. That’s good. Keep it that way.

It helps that I look fairly ordinary. Except for my height, but that fades into the crowd too, most of the time.

I'll do my best.

You can look as ordinary as you want, but it’s not going to help eventually. The only reason I haven’t gone back to jackets and glasses is because it’d be useless at this point.

Ugh. Something to look forward to. I may have to study my veil more.

And that would be? Some sort of cloaking magic?

Yes. It creates a field that convinces minds and mechanical sensors to ignore you.

Only for yourself, or others? Just saying, that'd be quite useful for all of us divining Atropos.

I can extend it, but I do need more practice at that. Maybe I can get some people willing to help me practice sneaking around.

I'm sure somebody you met at that gathering would be willing to do it. It sounds like it could help, if nothing else.
