Waystation Mingle Log!
Who: GAME-WIDE MINGLE aka everyone
Broadcast: If you want
Action: The Stations!
When: From 04/05 through the month of April.
[Well, that all sure happened. But at least you have the waystations! Whether you want to stock up on supplies, work, trade, or visit the very fancy Virtual Reality Dome, it's bound to be a nice break from the attacks of the 5th.
Make your own prompts, set up your own Virtual Realities, etc! For reference, the OOC post with info is over here!]

Maker, none of this makes any sense, probably. It's wrong. I think that's the best summation I can come up with. A mage without magic is...
[ Something clearly occurs to her when she says that, because her breath suddenly catches and rocks back a little, shoulders tense. ]
[ slowly ] A mage without magic is halfway to Tranquil.
no subject
What's Tranquil? I'm guessing it's not a good thing...
no subject
[ Okay this? This is freaking her out a little now. She doesn't regret what she did for a moment, not at ALL, but the connection to being made Tranquil is.
Well, being made Tranquil would be worse than death to her, very literally. She would rather suffer horrible torture and murder than be made Tranquil. ]
When the... when the Chantry thinks a mage is unable to pass their Harrowing, or have done something horrible with their magic, they can be punished permanently by being made Tranquil. It cuts off-- [ breathe, Steffa. Breathe. ] It cuts off our connection to the Fade, the... the world of spirits, where the dead and dreaming souls go, where we draw our power from.
It removes our magic, but it also removes... everything human about us. We cannot dream. We cannot feel emotion. It's...
[ she shakes her head a little, and smiles weakly, trying very hard to pretend this didn't kind of throw her for a loop ] It's not important. It's just a little uncomfortable to think about.
no subject
You're still you, though. I mean, I'd have noticed if you weren't. And you're getting it back soon, right?
no subject
Steffa doesn't even really think about the fact that she instantly leans slightly against Steph, bumping shoulders, closing the distance and all but subconsciously screaming for that physical reassurance. ]
Yes. And yes.
I came... very close to possibly being made Tranquil, once. If it wasn't for Duncan...
It's something every mage I grew up with feared more than anything else, I think. Even being possessed.
no subject
Yeah, I can't blame you. That's terrifying. But... no one here can do that to you, right? I mean... Is it magic that does it, or...?
no subject
[ She pauses for a split second, thinking of Cullen, wondering if he could perform the Rite of Tranquility here without access to lyrium, then discards the thought - he wouldn't, even if he could, unless one of them were truly a danger that could not be restrained. ]
Even if they could, no one here would do so.
Probably.
no subject
...they won't. If it even looks like they might, I have an attack ninja on standby. Just say the word.
[ ...she should probably ask Cass before she offers her services defending Steph's friends... but she's pretty sure she'd be okay with it anyway. ]
no subject
Well, that is certainly reassuring. Though... what is a 'ninja'?
