Wed, 23 May 2012 11:43:45 -0600

Finally moving off tumblr because this format is too restrictive.

Shush, no.

shhh. shhhhhhhhh. sh—

shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.

Get away from that unfollow button.

Gonna still be posting updates via the phantasmagorians tumblr account so you guys can see them on your dash. The difference is that their full glory will be visible on endofinfinity.com rather than one’s dash.

Basically, this will allow for the implementation of a number of features that will make it much easier to read and navigate.

This is for you. Today is your shining day.

_{Technically not today, but today is the day you hear about it.}

Anyway, just a heads up.

Updates are continuing as usual. Shush.

Oh, and by the way, I’m bringing telegram supplies to AX, Otakon, and Youmacon this year. _{As well as some Mate to share with the curious.} So look for someone with a shiny black Corona Four typewriter casually making telegrams by a tree, or on a bench, or wherever.

You’re welcome to some pre-made telegrams from characters, or if it tickles your fancy, you can have one custom made on the spot.

Make one for yourself. Make one for a friend.
Be the mail courier.

Why are you being such a jerk so suddenly?

ME??

^{Calm down. It’s just a dream. Got to be neutral.}

I just….

I don’t get why so many clueless people become Phantasmagorians.

» Jäsz

Feel free to fill me in some time, then. Geez.

Everything happened so suddenly, I’m not completely sure what’s going on. But you know what? We’re here now. I’m not gonna leave Malicent hanging, so where’s the door I have to stick these in?

¿? Maté

Sigh.

The keys make the door.

» Jäsz

Wh—

………………Forget it. I’m not even going to question it.

Ok, how do I go about doing that?

¿? Maté

You just… do.

I don’t know, I’ve never used them. I can’t. Not yet, at least.

Well.

» Jäsz

…Sorry.

¿? Maté

Sigh. Just take those keys and trigger a new door before I throw them at you, too.

» Jäsz

I said sorry!

And, why can’t we just use the one up above us?

¿? Maté

I’m just a dreamer, so unless you can magically sprout wings…..

» Jäsz

Why not just “logic” something?

¿? Maté

Like?

» Jäsz

Stairs. I don’t know. Something.

¿? Maté

Be my guest. You want to try and make something that huge? Why not imagine some fresh clothes while you’re at it. Oh wait, you’re a complete amateur. Here, let me do your job for you.

» Jäsz

My job? I didn’t even—

what—

ARGH. No, ok?! You got some mail, then fine, but I never signed up for some make believe dream junk. Look, I’m sorry about the drink, ok?

What? The thing? No! It’s been in your mouth! Gross.

¿? Maté

Wow, really? That’s so fucking rude.

» Jäsz

Seriously? You’re kidding.

¿? Maté

No, really.

Don’t you have this where you come from?

» Jäsz

No, but my family has Irish Breakfast. Did your tea bag break or something? All the grainy bits are everywhere. ….Or is this a dream thing? Do you people not strain tea because of your backward logic?

¿? Maté

What? No. Geez, nevermind, then.

I was just trying to be friendly, but forget it.

Live here? Ha. Thanks, but I don’t live here.

¿? Maté

Uh…

» Jäsz

In fact, I need to figure out how I even got here. Wait, if it’s all just a dream, couldn’t I just wake up? OH.

Oh man, I just realized this isn’t permanent. Oh thank god, I thought I’d be stuck looking like this forever.

¿? Maté

…

» Jäsz

How do I wake up?

¿? Maté

Uhm, well, it kinda depends. We could ask Mrs Serol. She stays at Muse Manor.

» Jäsz

Muse Manor? Wait, the bird guy was going there, wasn’t he? Perfect. I need to give him a shiner of his own.

¿? Maté

Ok, fine. I don’t suppose you know how to use keys yet, do you?

» Jäsz

What idiot doesn’t know how to use a freaking key?

¿? Maté

We should be able to get out of here if—

» Jäsz

Yeah, it’s just a lot to process.

Sorry, there’s just so much, and it’s hard to believe it’s all real.

It’s like a dream.

¿? Maté

Ah-hahahaha.

» Jäsz

What?

¿? Maté

Hahah, nevermind, nevermind.

You did have a point, though. Most people aren’t even aware of all this. We really take it for granted, and usually wish there was more time in each day. Honestly, it would be amazing to live here forever. I really envy you.

Well, just take it one step at a time and you’ll be fine.

Here.

]] 87

¿? Maté

Let me start with this place. Like I said earlier, this is a dream.

My dream, actually.

You’re in my dream.

» Jäsz

Right, ok, I get it. You guys told me a dozen times, ok?

Wait.

So I’m in your head?

¿? Maté

No, no. Dreams aren’t in your head. You go somewhere else.

» Jäsz

But dreams are thoughts, aren’t they?

¿? Maté

Well, the thing is, dreams are made of thoughts, but they aren’t just thoughts. There’s something else holding it all together. That’s why you can manipulate things by thinking logically about it. Dream Logic.

» Jäsz

Ok……?

¿? Maté

Ok.

So, that door up there that you came in from, that’s how you get from Phantasmagoria into my dream instance. There’s—

» Jäsz

PHANTASMAGORIA!! That! The guy— that Silver guy with the bird junk, he said something about that. Wha— Ha— W—

¿? Maté

Slow down! Don’t get excited!

That’s another thing. And actually, now that I think about it, probably why he lobbed those keys at you—

» Jäsz

^{^{It’s because he’s a freakin’ jerk, that’s why.}}

¿? Maté

—like I was saying….

You can’t really be yourself here where you can control everything. Don’t let your emotions and thoughts get out of hand, or you’ll ruin the dream. Everyone calls it Bedlamization.

Anyway, as soon as we can get out of here, we can go back to being ourselves. Dreams are very unstable because they’re impacted by thoughts pretty easily. Phantasmagoria is waaaaaay more stable because Mr. Muse oversees everything.

Just, whatever you do, please please pleeeease don’t Bedlamize the dream while I’m still in it.

That’s seriously not ok.

Wait, where did you get this?

Wait, where did you get that??

Oh, you haven’t manipulated dream logic before?
