Subject: Dreamotion Research Assistance Request

Many of you may already be aware of the ongoing effort to ensure that those who wish to remain in this world may do so. Eustace-san has suggested a logical first step: we need to better understand the nature of the connections between our present selves and our original worlds. While it appears that observing the connection directly is beyond their current instruments, the researchers at the Observatory are hopeful that progressing their understanding of dreamotion could prove helpful.

What we now need are volunteer dreamers who would not object to the study of their dreamwalking and dreamotion. For those willing, if you could reply here or contact myself or Eustace-san, it would be a considerable help. Of course those who have no intention of staying here permanently are also very welcome to assist. I believe learning more about this could be beneficial to all of us.

Finally, the tapirs have suggested that those who no longer exist in their original world may not be tethered to those worlds as tightly. From comparison to the magic of my own world, I believe volunteers with unusual circumstances such as these might be able to provide the researchers with additional clues. Those who have died in their own worlds, who otherwise experienced a separation from their physical bodies, or who may have complex connections as a result of something such as cloning could be particularly helpful. I understand that a number of these subjects may be sensitive. If you don't wish to discuss them in public, you are more than welcome to contact us privately, or to disclose this information only to the researchers themselves.

Thank you all for your time,
Baldr

I don't think I can create plants from nothing, but... well, it's similar to Isabella's, um, native talents.

From what I can tell, it's easier to work with off instinct or need, or very slowly -- I can help a garden grow, but if I try to do much more than that, it gets out of my control. Unless I need it, in which case it works fine. It's a little frustrating like that.

Re: no problem! and likewise sorry, RL happened!!

That's true! And yes, it is rather difficult to work with in stressful situations. On the plus side, when it does work, it does well.

Isa's a lovely young lady. If you get the chance, I'm sure she'd love the chance to talk to you. She had plant-controlling abilities before she arrived as songerein; something with her family, I think?

Is there anything you'd like me to do as experiments go in the near future?

I've got a personal garden, yeah. I've never tried to really push my dreamotion powers there -- I don't want to make a mess of it, after all -- but it seems a lot more healthy than my thumb, however green, should allow. Good thing, too, with how much saffron I use in cooking. It needs a LOT of flowers.

Helps that I can trim out the stigmas and then encourage them to grow back, so that I don't need a whole field of 'em.

I make a lot of rice! A good friend of mine really likes fried egg on rice, so I've been teaching him how to make it well, and building up a stockpile so I can give him a gift of a sizable amount of it to use.

I'd be delighted to trade cooking tips, though.

What's your favorite dish?

I'd be happy to show you how I make it some time, and I'm sure Ken would enjoy company. He feels bad enough that I make it for him at all, I'm sure he'd appreciate a distraction from that.

Do you have any other dishes you like?

(I'll need to drop this thread to focus on the new events. I had a good time, though! Ralsei would love to talk to Baldr some more later, too!)
