sixth entry ⊗ permanent residency
Sender: Eustace
To: Everyone
Subject: A Method to Stay in This World
As everyone should know, the version of ourselves in this world is wholly separate from our originals that remain awake in our home worlds. What we do here has no effect there, and vice versa. Most won't care whether they are here for a temporary stay, however there are those like me and Tifa who have formed relationships that would be impossible if not for this world.
And I am determined to make it last.
When the Halloween Carnival arrived last October, we had the opportunity to speak to the tapirs and inquire about the nature of our existence here. In short, we are tethered to our home world which allows us to return, currently at random. However, the fae, creatures, and every other being that is not a dreamer like ourselves do not have such tethers. They either traversed into this world or were directly taken through other means.
This leads to the conclusion that if we want to stay in this world, we need to somehow break the connection, either by completely severing it or changing the tether to connect to this world instead. Perhaps we need to completely change the nature of our current "dream self." As the risk of being sent back is high if the tether is cut, I aim to focus on other means.
However, there is of course no known knowledge or means to do this, and the tapirs do not know, either. Thus I am sending this inquiry to:
1) ask if there are any others who would be interested either to help or in the results;
2) if there is anyone who is familiar with dimensional travel or strong magic that could give some clue as to what to look for.
Currently I am looking through the Tree of Stories to find any text or story that could be of use. My current suspicion is dreamotion will be the main component, however manipulating it for such a use will be difficult.
If you are interested, you can respond here or contact me privately.

[ooc: AND THUS MARKS THE BEGINNINGS OF A VERY LONG QUEST but yeah Eustace is trying to find a way to stay permanently in this world and is looking for anyone who wants to help, wants to benefit, or has ideas that they can look into and be possibly incorporated in the actual method. An additional sign-up post has gone up for an official head count. Those who sign-up will be able to play a significant role in finding a clue and/or piece that will lead to the final result. More details there!]

.. but then Eustace just had to go and ask that.
It wasn't a question Kaiba particularly wanted to answer since he felt it would reveal some weakness in himself, but somehow it seemed pertinent to compose a satisfactory response.]
I mentioned that this wasn't the first dimension I'd wound up in earlier, remember? I, or this version of myself, haven't been back to my own universe for what must be years now.
Maybe from your perspective that's more of a reason for why I should want to stay here.. but there's someone whose counting on me there.
[He'd just leave out the rest of it. That should cover it. Let's face it, he was tired of these alternate timelines and dimensions having this much control over his own life, so he wanted to seize that power for himself. That way, he could reunite with his brother, without losing his girlfriend,
or rivalin the process. Why be beholden to anyone else's whims again?]no subject
I can see how that can also be frustrating. Regaining control would make sense in your situation.
no subject
Mm.
There's nothing you would miss about your other existence?
[If we're going to get personal, then it should be a two way street]
no subject
There would be a few people. However, while I was close to them, I've made a deeper connection here with Tifa and others.
no subject
It's evident that you've already come to terms with your decision. With something like this, there's no margin for regrets.
no subject
As to be expected. For this one has to be all in for it to succeed. However, I wouldn't blame anyone assisting us in changing their minds. It's a lot to ask, and everyone has their own circumstances.
