WEEK ONE CHECK-IN

[personal profile] breakaleginhalf 2020-09-06 04:59 am (UTC)(link)
- Two Travellers (Casper and Q'uila) have attempted to negotiate with him/his guards for his release. Grant trusts neither of them to not use this against him; despite this, has made his opinion clear to both of them that he does not want to remain in Conductor custody.
- Does not yet know about Leah's recommendation to force him into a Bond group to keep him supervised. Does know that she thinks his 'greatest wish' is to see the Conductors outright destroyed, and resents that.
- Used WotW on Titan, which directly lead to witnessing Titan nearly getting Conducted by Ace and AA.
- Has been informed by Rubellite as to the existence of "invisible links", and will be trying this out next week. Has also heard from her that his theories may or may not be Related to Paraiba's Nightmare Hunt.
- Tied Shinji's laces together

Zygi has also informed Kanji that Grant doesn't listen to him or any other Companion whatsoever.

Current Working Theories
Invisible links = ??? Definitely meaningful, gotta check in with Rubellite later
Conductors are capable of forcing Bonds, and have done so with Spirit Companions. Examine Cond. Bonds again more closely, particularly ACE
Travellers are willing to work with him ON CONDITIONS, hate that
Conductor bullshit is potentially linked to Paraiba's hunting = want to help him make progress

Any more extra wild ones would be great

Nota bene: Leah's response to putting Grant in a bond group against his will is "fuck that," off the cuff without thinking.

These are meant to be his babysitters, not his bond group.

Of course, feel free for GRANT to misinterpret this!

Diabolin dreams being responsible for any part of the Conductor mess - and all of Questing Country having come into existence in order to defeat the Diabolin the first time around. Since they couldn't dream back then, it was the ultimate weapon against them.

Oooooh shit. Love that.

Making a note to self here that Grant comes to this conclusion because Rubelite said "In your search for the deeper causes of the Companions extistential panic, a panic I believe is due to an existential threat, do not mistake causes for effects." and has been doing some Deep Galaxy Brain thinking as to what could cause/require an army of Dreamers that don't feel fear and can constantly, instantaneously check in with each other.

This used to be Questing Country itself, due to the absence of Diabolin Dreamers, but now that they can do that (and despite hating Oracles, he's heard the gossip that Diabolin only started dreaming a few months ago, after the Ouroboros Retrograde, despite him being sure himself that he's been here for at minimum six months) and have effectively invaded Questing Country, Something Else is making an Ultimate Task Force in order to combat them - something that can self-check reality and not fear the new Nightmares that a Diabolin presence undoubtedly contributes.

THANKS RUBES he's probably gonna have Some Kind Of Crisis over this
