+1 temporal adventuress

Hi everyone. Look who's back like a bad penny.

For those of you who weren't around during my last (rather brief) sojourn at this game, I'm Karin, and this is Una Persson, time-traveling adventuress from the novels of Michael Moorcock. Una's memories of having been here before are sketchy at best, so she's effectively starting over again. Hopefully I can find some new and interesting ways of getting her in trouble.

It's nice to be back!

I am happy to have you back! (And excited, too. I've been hoping we could get a travel agent to put that into practice).

It seemed like the logical job for her (not too far off from what she does as a day job, after all). I'm excited to learn more about what this entails and how that will work out for her!

It's both a recruitment thing (so if someone joins and you want to have Una recruit them in their world as a first thread or something, that's awesome). I thought people actually playing recruiters would work best.

Also, with the quarantine on, travel agents might have to find supplies (medical especially) in the event of scarcity.

Excellent. This will be fun!

Welcome back! :} I only threaded with you briefly last time -- I played Braska, then, but I've swapped him out for Elle here.

What kinds of getting in trouble is Una prone to? Because the adventurous, poke-everything-with-a-stick kind is one of Elle's favorites.

Thanks! I remember Braska; nice to see you again.

Una tends to enjoy knocking over anthills too. She also likes interfering with the status quo, especially if the status quo is of the oppressive, autocratic sort.

High-five, Elle pretty much accidentally a revolution in her canon. (Of sorts.) The plotline can be boiled down to "tries to be mailman, gets sucked into civil war, says 'fuck all y'all, I'm making my own side with blackjack and hookers,' and then she wins the war."

Elle is Una's kind of girl, then! :D Una's career is largely fomenting revolution and/or other political upheaval across a multitude of time-streams. This scene kind of sums it up.

... oh my god, they are going to get along so well. It would take me ages to explain why, but I'm going to see if I can cobble together something from a dialogue tree... It's gonna take a bit so I'm gonna leave this comment here and link you to the thing when it's done, but just. Man.

They totally have to wreck something together. It's Required.

EDIT: Sighs dramatically, as I was struggling to put it together, I realized it wasn't gonna make much sense or have as much importance out of context. BUT TO SUMMARIZE WHAT I WAS TRYING TO FIND: Elle has a very long argument/conversation with someone near the end of her canon about the importance of symbols and how they can change. Her whole Thing in canon is about changing roads and letting go of the past when it's holding you back, etc. (Which is ironic, because she personally has trouble with that kind of thing...)

And re: authority, Elle had to go through the process of losing her blind trust in an authority figure and coming to accept that she can be her own authority. It's still something she struggles with but it's a Big Part of her character development, which is why I mention it, 'cause it really resonates.......
