These rifts affecting a single guild member...do they happen often? I had found myself suddenly back in my own universe for some time, with no memory of having joined Hathaway, only to return before I-- nevermind.

[this is voice for a reason because while there is disappointment in her tone, she'd rather not show it to the rest of the guild. it's something she'll get to when her time with Hathaway feels like it's been completed.]

I realize I have been gone for only a handful of days, and merely wanted to inform everyone that I have returned.

[and because as A Leader Type she can't help herself:]

Hopefully we are all already thinking of our aliases for the upcoming mission.

I suppose you are correct. It is reassuring to know I am not alone in this phenomenon-- not that I assumed I was, it is just--

Well, good to hear it from others.

[cachemoney]

[Seems fake but ok.]

You sure you didn't assume?

[juniberries]

Not many people have openly talked about this happening to them.

[secondnature]

It's because we've all been here for a while. Fiona's been here just a little longer than me.

We're ... used to it, I guess. Turns out merging everything didn't exactly fix it.

[juniberries]

...perhaps they should mention these potential glitches in the dossier for newcomers.

[secondnature]

I guess.

Most people aren't gone as long as you were.

And sometimes it's ... a good thing. To come back and know what else you need to work toward.

[juniberries]

What ordinarily happens?

And...it is strange to be back and know that certain goals are starting to be met back home that had not been when I first signed on.

[secondnature]

It's like no time has passed. No one even notices that you're missing.

[Keith would give a more exact number, but he's not really an "exact numbers" kind of guy. He just knows that the latter statement is correct.]

It can give you time when you need it, too.

[cachemoney]

It's kind of a weird thing to bring up unprompted, right?

[juniberries]

...I suppose that is correct.
