Well, lookie here! We have a new event! And it's a collab with another game, Missrecalled! How will that work, you ask? Here is the event info on their side:

https://the-spaces-between.dreamwidth.org/436.html

And on this side:

Jordan was not the only person desperately trying to fix things that had gone wrong. On Gaia, the Sephiroth native to that world had been running himself ragged for the last several weeks, frantic to find a solution to what he had caused by bringing so many there through portals. It had been an accident, and his intentions when inadvertently activating the portals had been innocent, but that hardly mattered to him. He saw only that he had tried to do something for himself—using the Ancients’ magic to be sane again—and everything had turned on its head.

The Heartless attack had been the last straw. That was dangerous, that was deadly, and something had to be done. He had to send all of these poor people home.

And so he was struggling to open the portals. His will should be able to override whatever was keeping them closed, shouldn’t it? He certainly thought so.

In hindsight, perhaps he should have asked the other Sephiroth for help, given that that Sephiroth had the power of portal-making. But he hadn’t wanted to bother or burden anyone more than he already had. He had caused this on his own. He had to fix it on his own.

So while Jordan dreamed, Sephiroth fought with the portals.

What could possibly go wrong?

As it turned out, a lot. Both magic users, desperate to correct the problems in their worlds, reached out through the cosmos ... and the cosmos answered. A piercing portal developed from Auradon, through the Isle, all the way to Gaia, with the two blue-winged Sephiroths the unfortunate conduits. The dreamscape mixed with the waking world and portals began opening in both.

When this latest disaster exploded across Gaia, Sephiroth stared out the window in shock. Portals were everywhere, but people weren’t going through them back to their worlds. The energy he could feel from them didn’t even feel like the portals that had opened to start this whole mess. He went outside, looking into the nearest portal. The bizarre world on the other side, of flowers growing in the sky and clouds on the ground, looked like someone’s fever dream. Several more inane sights led him to conclude that the portals were indeed all going to people’s dreams. And upon talking with the recipient of one such dream, he made another alarming discovery: the portals were going to the dreams in other worlds.

He groaned and slumped back, running a hand down his face. “What have I done now?” he cried in dismay. Would he never be able to fix anything, only cause more destruction?

OOC Info: This is a collaborative event with the RP Missrecalled (info below). Characters from different worlds can either meet on the dreamscape while sleeping or pass through to Gaia while awake via the portals. But even in the waking world, the dreamworld is insisting on encroaching. The longer the madness goes on, the more the strange sights from people’s dreams are creeping into Gaia.

While there isn’t as much awake time on the Missrecalled side of things (and less and less of it as the event progresses), the Gaia side allows for people to be awake and not asleep if preferred. (Or they can dream on the Gaia side as well, if preferred.) The Sephiroths are dream-walkers and can pass through the dreamscape both asleep and awake. They can also take others with them. Everyone else can also use the portals to wander amid other’s dreams or pass through to Gaia if they were someplace else. The portals popping up in the waking world must be closed from inside the dreamscape, which the Sephiroths will be trying to take care of along with those who volunteer to help them. But there’s so many, it could take some time. And while any are open, things from people’s dreams are getting loose everywhere. Monsters, weird disasters, any distressing scenario dreaming people can come up with. Go wild! Make top-levels and reply to others' top-levels from this post, or from Missrecalleds' 4th Wall at: https://the-spaces-between.dreamwidth.org/436.html
Just mark your threads accordingly if they have any content others may wish to avoid. Also keep in mind that as wild and weird as your dreams can be, you don't have the right to force that weirdness on others' characters unless they're okay with that. I.E., does your dream involve forced transformation into dogs or cats? Great! That's fine for you, but no one else should have to be changed if they don't want that. So either mark your thread that it's for those who want that weirdness, or have it open to all and expect to see some humans talking to your dogs and cats. :)

Given the nature of the event and the need to close so many dream portals, dream-walkers and characters with other dream-related powers will be especially useful. The Sephiroths could use all the help they can get! But everyone is welcome and all characters can help! Just know that if you’re going to try closing dream portals and you don’t have inherent dream powers, you’ll need to go with one of the Sephiroths. This is a combination collab event in which characters from both games can mingle, as well as a 4th Wall in which characters from anywhere and anything can appear, whether they’re in either game or not! Bring everyone! It’s like a test drive, only wilder. If you especially enjoy your time in the 4th Wall, apps are always open at Fated Hearts and open until October 30th at Missrecalled and we would love for you to join us permanently!

And the info on our collab partner: Missrecalled is a game based on an AU of Disney's Descendants/the Isle Of The Lost novels, taking place if the third movie ended slightly differently. The game is split in two parts; Characters who start in Auradon are welcomed to a seemingly-idyllic setting with only minimal power nerf that is exploration, slice of life, and working together plot lines. Characters who start on The Isle are in for a powernerf experience with survival and school themes. There are ways in game to change from one to the other, but they are not frequent and the pace is often player driven. The Missrecalled Mod Squad hopes to see you on the 4th wall... once upon a dream.

Things to note: Missrecalled has a magical no-swear filter, and requires FTB for physical intimacy scenes.

"Really? You're not worried you might get your hand caught or something?" Zack blinks.

From:

agathaheterodyne

"Why would I get my hand caught?" she asked, puzzled. "Screwdriver!"

From:

3wingedangel

Sephiroth is still wondering how this is even going to work. He doesn't approve of this tampering with a dream.

Zack is just watching, bewildered, as he hands over a screwdriver.

From:

agathaheterodyne

She got the safety plate off and Maxim took it from her to put it aside. She poked her head into the inner workings. "AHA!" she called. She reached a hand back. "Hepler wrench!"

From:

3wingedangel

The only reason Sephiroth allows this at all is because it is a dream. In reality he would absolutely refuse to put up with it unless they were stopped and not in a moving vehicle. But he intends to put a stop to it if he sees Zack is getting upset. Keeping the dreamer calm is of the highest priority in a dream.

Zack is just confused. "So what are you gonna do? You don't have parts for a monorail right with you, do you?"

From:

agathaheterodyne

A tiny little pocketwatch with a face and limbs handed Zack a wrench.

"I can repurpose what is already here!" she said. "Hepler wrench!"

From:

3wingedangel

Shrugging, Zack hands it over.

Sephiroth continues to watch silently, clearly disapproving.

From:

agathaheterodyne

There was a horrible grating noise and then a small explosion. "It's okay!" she said, taking the wrench and getting back to work.

The small device started handing Zack small parts.

From:

3wingedangel

"How is that okay?" Sephiroth said, an edge in his voice.

Zack stared at all the parts, trying to work out what they all are.

From:

agathaheterodyne

"No one was hurt," she said as she reached out a hand for parts.

From:

3wingedangel

"This time, perhaps," Sephiroth retorted.

Zack wasn't sure what to hand her, so he just held out his hands with everything.

From:

agathaheterodyne

She reached back without looking and grabbed all of it, bringing it inside the engine to work on. "Oh! That is clever! I should pull it out to get a better look at it!" she said, an edge of madness creeping into her tone, the harmonics in her voice shifting.

From:

3wingedangel

“Pull it out?” Now Sephiroth was growing angry. “We are in a moving vehicle!” Even though it was a dream, he suspected Agatha would behave the same in reality.

He looked to Maxim. “You intend to do nothing to stop this?”

From:

agathaheterodyne

"Ho no, do hy look zutpid? She'z in de madness place."

"Oh don't worry, it's not part of the brakes!" she called. "Oh, but that was... Oh! But I can make that better!!!!"

From:

3wingedangel

"And you didn't think perhaps you should warn us this could happen?" Sephiroth wasn't sure what to do at this point. If he made her stop with things half-undone, that could be disastrous anyway.

"Hey, this is my dream, right?" Zack said. "Maybe I can concentrate and make it all better!"

Zack wouldn't be able to control Agatha's actions, however, so Sephiroth wasn't sure how Zack could make it better.

From:

agathaheterodyne

"Vat's to varn, darlink?" MAxim looked confused.

There was another small explosion and smoke started coming from the rails. "Why would they use electricity for... AH! GOT IT!"

From:

3wingedangel

Sephiroth just stared at him. That entire world is insane, was what was going through his mind right then.

"Got what?!" Zack asked. "Things are getting bad out here!"

From:

agathaheterodyne

"Yes... one second.... AHA!!!"

And then the train started... to lift off the rail. She grinned as she pulled back out. "I knew I could change that brake system to antigrav!"

From:

3wingedangel

Sephiroth stared at her. “Without asking if anyone actually wanted that to happen?!”

Oh, he was not going to take them anywhere else.

Zack stared out the window in shock. “For real?! This is cool!”

As long as they would stay on the floor.

From:

agathaheterodyne

Agatha nodded. "This was much easier than the last train I worked on for sure!" she said. She reached back in and pulled out a part, to show it off. "Look at how this was designed! It is fascinating. Superfluous, but lovely!"

From:

3wingedangel

"It came out of my mind, I guess, so ... thanks?" Zack said.

Sephiroth was not impressed. "Perhaps this is normal for your world, but in other worlds, people ask before performing such ... modifications."

From:

agathaheterodyne

She looked so puzzled. "Why...?"

From:

3wingedangel

"For a variety of reasons. Perhaps they like it the way it is. Perhaps the modifications will even affect them negatively, such as if they get airsick. Or perhaps there are things about their world that you won't understand without asking questions and simply plunging in could be dangerous."

From:

agathaheterodyne

"You understand better by taking things apart and putting it back together than by asking. People lie, machines hold truth."

From:

3wingedangel

“Nevertheless, the fact remains that this is not acceptable behavior during dreamwalking. Things may not always turn out as well as they did here in Zack’s dream and I cannot risk disrupting someone’s dream.” He started to open a portal.
