Sender: Eustace

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!]

Hmmm... we could head down to the firepit and make some s'mores. Or we can take the dogs out to the park, and grab some hot chocolate at Dreambucks on the way?
[Something closer to home will be best, she thinks.]
What do you guys think?

The girl thought for a moment before releasing Tifa with one more quick squeeze of her waist. She sits up a little on the bed, blinking at the possibilities presented. It was up for her to decide? ]
Ah... [ She pauses to look at them both before finally mustering a small smile that sheepishly pokes against her cheeks. ] I can't remember the last time I had s'mores, but I remember that they were really yummy.
[ Oh. But first- ] Are you sure that's okay? We were suppose to go to the library...

[Tifa lifts her gaze up to Eustace, looking at him. This sounds like a plan the two of them had together, and of course she wouldn't want to impose, but—]
If that's where you wanna go, then that wouldn't be a problem.
no subject
It was just to do some research, see if we could find anything at there about staying in this world. But that can be done anytime.
I think it would be better if we took a day off and relaxed instead.
[EUSTACE SUGGESTING A DAY OFF??? This is truly a serious matter—]
no subject
Lyria is surprised, but soon the shock wears off into another small, yet sheepish, smile. ]
Then if it's alright... I'd love to have s'mores with both of you!
🎀
[Tifa lets her arms to fall away and shifts to get up from the bed, but she offers a hand to Lyria once she's standing.]
Wanna help me gather the items? While Eustace gets the fire ready?
[She glances at him with a gentle, knowing grin. So, while Eustace and the dogs head outside together to kindle the fire in their firepit, Tifa and Lyria pick out the marshmallows, graham crackers, and chocolates—all of which there is an abundance of. Blankets, as well, to shield them against the wintery evening air.
And it will be gathered around the fire that the three of them spend their time, well into the night. Their laughter echoes off the treetops as they exchange stories and jokes with one another, as they try to catch the particularly goopy marshmallows with graham crackers and chocolate.
Who knows how late they stay out until, but the moons are high up in the sky by the time Tifa's eyes feel heavy with sleepiness. As they head back inside, she hopes that for Lyria, this has helped to chase away her worries and fears, even for just a night. Tomorrow would be a new day, and they would tackle it all together...]
