All right, I'll start.

My name is Daria-toren. I was born on Karn. Last week a robot named Jim Nightmare (

yonjuunana ) hosted a pizza party in the dreaming. For a short while a space carved out of the formless ether became host to a small group of jiko from all corners of existence.

They posted in a fury. A journal which normally landed only a handful of comments suddenly broke a hundred. I met the handmaiden of an exiled princess and a psychologist committed to the study of raw creation (

rosencrantz ). I summoned a copse of trees, and a man from a thousand years in the future saw one for the first time. I traded notes on death and fear with a necromancer from the Sundered Kingdoms (

galen_6thnecro ).

The wave of connection passed, and I was sad to see them go.

So this is a space to meet again. I call jiko, spirits, soulbonds, characters who've seized a life of their own, from all across the multiverse. If you are invisible, if you are lonely or bored, if you have spent your whole existence talking only to the one or two people who acknowledge your presence, come meet us here.

Any language, words or pictures or sounds or however you communicate, is fair game. What we cannot understand, we will learn.

Come join me in this place where it's all real.

No, I can feel stuff. Some stuff, anyway. I can usually tell if something's touching me, just can't feel pain or temperature. Humans always seem to have a kind of hard time wrapping their heads around what that's like. My friend Kelly used to always poke me with weird stuff to see how I'd react. That is, until I decided I was pretty curious about how humans feel temperature as well, and put an ice cube down the back of her shirt. Then we called a truce. :D

I can sometimes tell if I'm broken. Something just feels a bit off, or I stop being able to feel or move a body part. *scowls* Or I'm just minding my business then the next thing I know I'm waking up on the workshop table not knowing what the fuck just happened to me.

What you said about moving awkwardly, though- That's actually a problem for a lot of androids. Er, not me. But I guess it's just hard to get us to feel where our bodies are right. My brother and sister both move weird. It doesn't look weird to me since I grew up with them, but I guess it creeps a lot of people out. Kind of frustrating for them.

Oh man. That's... that's rough about Celesty. *thinks for a minute* I... I think sometimes you just have to wait for people to help themselves. After my brother got hurt, he spent years just sitting around and watching TV. Stopped wanting to go to college, even though he's so smart. We couldn't do a thing about it. But he's getting better now. I always knew he would. *smiles, then shrugs* I know people gave me all kinds of good advice when I was a kid, and it didn't do shit because I wasn't ready to listen. Not their fault. Don't give up on your friend, maybe someday she'll snap out of it. I hope so.

So sperith have something to do with entropy?

What's Dekan like? If you think it's safe for me to go there, I'll go. Would you come along? *summons his acoustic guitar* I've... I've only played for really small audiences before. Friends and stuff. I guess I could see how I'm feeling, maybe give it a shot. Man, I'd love to get a chance to see instruments from other worlds!
