[Catty is looking totally relaxed, leaning forward with her elbows on the desk, and her chin resting on her hands]

Hey, so, I can timetravel. [Yup just slamming that out there] And even though it's gone super weird here and I can't touch anything when I got back, or even have anyone notice me, it's still good for overhearing things. [A beat] Which, um, I haven't done to anyone here. So you know.

But I was thinking, there has to be some point in the past where things related to us were discussed, right? And if no one can see or hear us...well, we might be able to find out something interesting. Or important.

[She sucks in a breath, straightening] But I don't want to keep this to myself. So I'm asking for volunteers who don't mind stepping into a tunnel between space and time and exploring history. Vanessa'll tell you that it smells like cabbage, but she's kind of finicky. It's totally safe, and it doesn't smell bad at all, I promise. [yes it does] I think I'll be able to take four people back? My only real thing is that, if you come, you have to share what you find. It's not fair, otherwise.

[She gives a casual salute] Okay, Catty out! Just let me know if you're interested, okay?

[OOC: If your character is volunteering, please read this and sign up!]

[Rose surfaces after at least a month of network silence, awkwardly smiling.]

Oh, I dunno. It's got some kinda smell, but don't think cabbage is it.

[She chuckles, giving a light nod of her head.]

Go on ahead and count me in, would ya? Kinda miss the whole...mucking about in space and time...thing.

Rose! You're alive! [yay alive Rose /o/] And thank you. You should try telling Vanessa that, she doesn't listen to me.

Awesome, I'll let you know once I've had a chance to talk to everyone and see who's interested. How're you doing, though?

Kinda've been keeping to myself a bit, yeah. Sorry for that.

[And she does look sheepish and apologetic, but she doesn't focus on the apology for long and just moves right along.]

Guess I've been better, but I figure things'll turn around here soon. They've just gotta. You're offering adventures in time and space and everything! Things can't stay awful, not with something like that to look forward to.

It's okay! I'm just glad you're all right.

[She smiles] If you're that into it, we can just go back whenever, you know. It's kind of Timetravel Lite right now, I can't affect anything. But we could still go back.

Oh, we shouldn't affect anything anyway. No matter if it's timetravel...light or...heavy.

[She frowns a bit at that awful terminology, and brings a finger up to her lips as she tries to think of a better way of putting it.]

Already've had enough experience in changing things. Don't wanna do that here, too. Going back, though? That sounds just perfect.

I don't know. Some things are better off different. It's a moot point here though, no one's changing anything. I'll see what I can do! Maybe I can make a career out of this...

What, start charging people for it? Think it could work, maybe! It's worth a shot, anyway.

Yeah! Like a holiday to the past or something. Or, you know, catch your cheating boyfriend in the act, whatever works. I could be a PI.
