May. 15th, 2010 02:51 pmI'm absent for a few days and I find an angry giant wolf guarding the path back into town and reports of raining trees.
Some people in this village are complete idiots. Do you have no collective concept of resource management? A barrier of guts and a rain of trees? What an astounding waste. Well, I suppose that tends to result when people feel the need to demonstrate how powerful they are.

Apr. 24th, 2010 03:13 pm[Well, Leto didn't escape the curse this time. Behind and above him is a floating, pixellated rectangle, with reams of rapidly scrolling italicised text. Within it are meditations on the culture of Luceti, the nature of time and space, and other heady topics. It scrolls by pretty rapidly, presenting itself in a way that would cause most ordinary readers to go crosseyed trying to take it all in.
Here are some examples.
Find him running errands in the village. Definitely he's in the shops looking for testing instruments, or at Azzip getting his fill of overcooked pizza.]

Any power must always contend with the existence of another, greater power. This is a lesson I was raised with. The Malnosso are that greater power for us. They hold the trump card that can temporarily nullify the powers of all of our gods, everything that made us exceptional. They are not exempt from this cycle though. I hear talk of a "third party", from the time I was gone. Is that the Malnosso's own Greater Power?

What do you know about Kohaku?
[Action:
Leto is out in the forest, reviewing his knowledge of the Weirding Way. He walks in Kung Fu-esque steps around small trees before his whole body blurs, moving at speeds too fast for the human eye to normally see. There are cracks of wood splintering, little trees falling as he slams himself into them with that inhuman speed, leaves swirling in his wake through the displaced air. Whoosh and crack. More saplings fall. The physicality of it helps focus him, bring questions and answers into sharp relief. There's a simple clarity to it.
He's only warming up and reviewing too.]

I see an influx of visitors.

Dec. 7th, 2009 06:19 amI have returned to the village for a moment. With it I bring news: I have conquered the voice-within known as mother. We knew her as Jenova. Now she is another voice within my internal multitude, at my disposal. I have all her memories.
Does anyone wish to know anything about her?

[Leto actually is going to the carnival. Find him in one of two places:
1: He is at the Great Mysterio's stand. The masked droid has ahold of his hand. The sandtrout that dot it are visible now. He appears to be...testing himself. As fast as Mysterio predicts things, he's doing the same, matching his pace. Is this cheating? Or is he cheating himself?
2: He is also at the Megamarksman booth, crouched. He's racking up an incredible score. There's already a pile of tchotchkes and plushies next to him. If you look closely, however you can see he seems to be aiming at the targets before they appear.]

For our little society, festivals serve the function of releasing pressure, not just for the individual but also for the group. People are allowed the illusion of thrills and of freedom.

Oct. 5th, 2009 03:28 pmLady Alia has returned to Arrakis. With her gone, it is now safe for me to tell everyone her story.
Alia is my aunt. Me, her and my twin sister are all preborn: We were born with the memory-lives of all our ancestors.
All preborn eventually must face their internal cacaphony. Some of us control them. Some don't and become possesed Abominations.
In my timeline, Alia failed her test. She became an abomination controlled by the ghost of her grandfather, Baron Vladimir Harkonnen, who killed her father and tried to kill her mother and her brother (my father).
In my timeline, she managed to regain control long enough to plunge a crysknife into her heart and end the Baron forever.
However in Luceti, I believe she will pass her trial this time. Without the stress of being a galactic regent to an empire that's falling apart at the seams and with the friends she made here, I have hope she will pass her trial this time.
I want to thank everyone who was kind to her. Our water is commingled now.

Sep. 22nd, 2009 03:16 am[With a noise like a thousand people going 'WHOP' all at once, Leto comes tumbling out of the sky to land in the exact middle of the village. He hits the ground front-first, a cloud of dust blooming around him. He appears mostly unconscious, though his eyes are open and he mutters words: Mother, Golden Path, Alia, Abomination. Green has begun to infiltrate the edges of his blue-within-blue eyes, like little cracks in the earth. Both glow brightly. On his skin, geostigma and sandtrout war for dominance: they are next to each other, wrapping around and pushing against each other so his skin looks like a fight between two armies.]
OOC: Experiments with Voice posting
Sep. 22nd, 2009 03:01 amMy experiments with voice posting for Leto, attempting to voice act some of his older entries.
Number One: After taking the Geostigma water, Leto thanks Kadaj
Number Two: During the Suggestion Curse, he succeeds in licking his elbow. The cracking sound was made by snapping a piece of green pepper near the reciever.

I don't know how this will interact with any of my...uniquenesses. Do not approach me afterwards until it's been verified that I am myself.
