Prepare for the #LodanRespawn2024 Existing characters may choose to be displace from/have memories of different timelines, thereby allowing returning members the option to retcon their whole character. These changes are the result of the "Unnatural Fog" plot device that is running between now and the Respawn. The plot is simple: no matter where your character is, that place is shrouded in a thick fog that suspends time, but not thoughts or memories, so even if they're repeating the same day over and over again, they continue to remember, so each time feels like a new day. For those retconning OCs; this is where new versions of themselves have the opportunity to replace the old versions. Official lore and tree updates will be announced asap

"Hey, hey!" Tom cried, trembling as he jumped back - "N-no, stop!" Though his face formed a scowl, his lip quivered. He curled into himself, glaring at Aida before... his muscles relaxed and, not without hesitation, and not without the trembling continuing, he held out his arms towards the woman, using all his remaining energy not to jump away once again.
Surprised, Aida too, jumped back unsure of really what she had done. Yet, at the compliance of the other, she continued, though, a little touch was relative. Barely touching was more accurate. “So, um.” Gods, what was she supposed to say now? Did she disgust him that much? It made her frown quite a bit. Goodness, another reason to avoid MI from now on, it seemed. “I flirt quite a bit, but… I won’t touch you or harm you. In fact, if you want, I-I can avoid you. I didn’t mean to upset you so much earlier. And well, I know you didn’t care for me, but …” Glancing up into his eye, Aida tried to smile but the hurt in her eyes let her feelings slip through. “I didn’t mean to freak you out. I- You can have the room if you want. I can sit outside. You’ve been through a lot tonight, and I don’t want to upset you further, dearie.” She took a risk. She took a risk being so outgoing with someone she barely knew, and she was going to take another risk. As the healing magic ended, she let her hands lay on top of his, giving them a slight squeeze as if to help the trembling stop. “Don’t feel hesitant to give into yourself around me. If you want to yell, yell. If you want to punch, punch.I’ve been through worse, dearie, and I’ve learned to be able to put myself back together.” Remaining low, she stared up at him as she gave a more heartfelt smile. “Just make sure you take care of yourself, alright? You’re an interesting kid, and I think you’ll be a fun edition to MI.” Getting up, Aida staggered a bit, grabbing the bottle of wine and not bothering with the glass. “I’ll— I’ll go back to the main room for now. If you need me, or want to leave, just h-head there.”
