[recollecters]

Hello, everyone! As you've probably noticed, we've been having a few problems - I mentioned earlier that something got knocked out of balance, and we had to recalibrate, but in a few days we should be able to drop the emergency measures. Please be aware that there is an incoming storm, class four. General orders for that kind of thing are to report to management for any known threats and follow instructions, but so far what's known is "that might be a little annoying" and "hope it isn't". Theoretically it'll probably be related to the holiday, I think, because a large group of souls focused through the needle of a pin on one thing can sort of shape a thing around them. That's sort of a really inaccurate way to put it on the technical side of things, but I think it's the easiest way to understand it! At any rate, we'll know more once we're in the thick of things. Please take care as usual; resources aren't exactly what some of you seem to think they are, and we had to expend rather more than usual in the past month or so to keep things with a few of you steady.

It sure sucks. At least it probably isn't a real storm. That dome would protect us from drowning.

[spirithacker]

an actual storm might be better

[compendiem]

Yeah. We'll probably get those soon, though. It's almost spring.

[spirithacker]

im ready for it not to be cold
+ not covered with a creepy dome

[compendiem]

What if the world outside is currently on fire and the dome is keeping it from reaching the city? Which would you rather have?

[spirithacker]

can we at least have a window
or some other way we know whats going on out there

[compendiem]

No. Windows are a hazard. You do tornado, etc. drills in school, right? You always stay away from windows.

[spirithacker]

ugh youre right
they could give us news updates about the outside or something??

[compendiem]

I talked to somebody who talked to a ghost who said it's fine outside. That was earlier last month, though.

[spirithacker]

are ghosts reliable

[compendiem]

Um. I guess not, since nothing bad can happen to them out of consequence if they lie. But we made an offering of coffee, so I hope so.

[spirithacker]

coffee is gross
why would you give them that

[compendiem]

I tried to burn mint leaves like a proper ritual, but that's what it asked for. Minty coffee. Ghosts are weird.

[spirithacker]

ghosts are super weird
i hope i dont have a ghost ever

[compendiem]

Ghosts are everywhere. Do you live in an old house?

[spirithacker]

its older than me

[compendiem]

You might have a ghost. Good luck.

[spirithacker]

banned
im gonna get an exorcist

[compendiem]

Are you banning me? I know someone who talks to ghosts. Presumably. I could refer you.

[spirithacker]

unbanned
for now

[compendiem]

Thanks. His name's Lalli H-- some long foreign name I don't know how to spell without looking it up.

[spirithacker]

lalli cant be that common of a name
i can find him

[compendiem]

It probably isn't. Just mention my name or something. Good luck getting rid of your ghosts.

[spirithacker]

maybe i dont have ghosts
and everything is fine

[compendiem]

Keep telling yourself that.
