-Met up with Sozaya earlier today, got some info about dreamwalking. Turns out a bulk of what can be done to learn is stuff I already have basic knowledge on; lucid dreaming. meditation on the other hand is something I'm not too knowledgeable on though, will have to ask Yumiko later.
+Met up with Sozaya earlier today, got some info about dreamwalking. Turns out a bulk of what can be done to learn is stuff I already have basic knowledge on; lucid dreaming for one. meditation on the other hand is something I'm not too knowledgeable on though, will have to ask Yumiko later.
 Had a dream last night, was in the middle of a nighttime snowy Nuskom, lights were completely on but the galaxy could still be seen from the sky. Weird, walked around my old neighborhood and it continuously started to feel more and more cold around me as I walked.. soon it felt like I was about to collapse from the cold, walked into one of the houses and went to sit on a couch in the living room. The sky appears in the hallway, it fizzles out and all that's left is the void.. that same void as the other dream.

 Stopped a Rigasian train robbery, literal train robbery; they tried stealing the entire fucking train.
-Days leading up I did some investigation on the earlier robberies and goddamn: they //really// used tanks to stop them? The hell was going on in their heads with that? Glad they stopped that after Umichoo did its thing in Kesizma, though of course it was still fucking hard.

 So by the time we're pouring into the train it seems like there was a damn Rigasian plant and they tried shooting my head off, Claire iced him (and almost broke him by pushing him to the floor) while I was in shock. After that I just sat in the car with Zach the entire time really, meditated and tried to dreamwalk.

 Then Claire wakes me up and I'm jumping onto Derek from the damn window.
-Turns out Gaia forgot to tell me and Claire that there were a couple of Paranormal Foundation goons fucking with a Koteglia Mechanism and summoning a *portal* to.. somewhere, we stopped them before we could see where Rigasia wanted to send us. Some prick was telekinetic and the other was fucking invisible which led me to fall on my ass multiple times, eventually the engine was taken off (luckily) and we were saved atleast.

 Got the core tested in a lab after, turns out whatever Rigasia does involves something that's organic. Fun. Can't wait to find out that Rigasia is electrocuting shit to make it give Rigasia a portal to wherever.
+====== Session 23 ======
+What fun, a visit to the Umichoo delegation turned into a mindfuck dream, my favourite activity.
+Riung was gathering up gifted people to be investigated with the subtle machines maintenance which resulted in the 3 of us being teleported there, place was bland, they need to redecorate.
+She was talking to Gaia about the gift stuff which.. Riung was looking at me, a lot of them were. I mentioned it and more started looking at me, including the main Riung, Gaia did, Amanda did, even Claire.. Then I wake up on a beach while disoriented to all hell! Went up some stairs and investigated a cloud shackled down and almost got struck by lightning.
+Cue me waking up in a Shinto shrine while Miko Claire looks in confusion and doesn't remember anyone, including me. She went to go make me some stew while my Claire walks up and shows me a glass bone and looks confused. the Miko comes back to give me the stew and then gets startled by both my Claire and Gaia falling through the roof, all of us are confused and it gets worse, Riung comes in.
+Apparently a Dream Queen who rebelled against.. someone.. the whole conversation was confusing considering I still can't dreamweave. Said Dream Queen was following me and wasn't leaving my side.. I'm interested in meeting her to be frank, she seems interesting.
+Then of course, as if this week couldn't get more weird, another Ariyadna shows up and reminds me why I got a crush on her initially. Thank you Ms Ariyadna.
+====== Session 24 (and the rest of the week) ======
+==== Monday ====
+Was my birthday today, first "real" party I've ever had in my life.
+Met up with Ivan, Aleksey, and Lotte at the train station a few hours before, Claire came with and she seemed to get along with everyone pretty well! Glad that everything is going well on that front. Though, apparently paparazzi from Motyl was taking photos of us meeting up again, fucking amazing.
+Only really notable thing that happened during the party itself was the paparazzi coming again, otherwise I had just hung out with Mariette and Ivan.
+Lotte started "talking" to Ariyadna I noticed as well, she would write notes and hand them to her and then try to help make sense of the words Ariyadna didnt know! They seemed to get along well thankfully.
+After that it was time to get cake and.. do all of that traditional party stuff, I really hated it to say the least, I don't like cake and it got extremely frantic. Went outside with ##### Claire and we talked for a bit, topic went towards our childhoods and I touched a bit on.. her.. haven't thought of Marina Novikov in literal decades, didn't notice how much I missed her touch and that kiss we shared on the beach. Hope you're alright, my love.
+Opened our presents; Aleksey gave me 200¥ and a 'cool rock' as he calls it, Lotte gave me some photos of the city they're living in and a picture of Ivan and his boyfriend, Ivan gave me a bit of candy and some caramels from a really expensive place, then Mariette, being the joy she is, gave me an entire bottle of the best wine I've ever tasted in my entire life.
+Riung though, gave one of the more important(?) gifts out of all, seemingly a library inside of an egg shaped device that has information on dreamweaving, the surrounding world, and so much more. Apparently there are even eldritch horrors beyond any of our comprehensions (The Unmaker, The Wanderer, and the Master Cog are some highlights I gathered), these beasts are either Hyuni (the beasts outside of our universe), or the Zuni (more comprehensible monsters such as the Unmaker or the Renegade (which I'll just refer to her as Haikyousha as thats easier to say)).
+Though.. after that, a giant fucker named the [         ] appeared and disappeared after terrifying everyone and caused a fright. We started talking on everything and debriefing and I - may have drank a bit too much and don't remember shit about what happened.
+Thats it really though, gonna try to see if I can contact the Renegade after doing the reading on dreamwalking that was in the egg.
+==== Tuesday ====
+I can have Monday as a break day as a treat I guess.
+Motyl started including me in his little paper of nightmares and categorized me as a "cheating faggot" and Yumiko as a "[slur] dyke who is here to turn our kids communist". Yup, its as bad as it seems, as much as I wanted to spend the rest of the week with Ivan I might as well get started on helping Iorena manage this and make a response. Let it be known that Motyl is a piece of shit.
+On a better note however; the family's been enjoying the house a whole lot after coming here, Ivan was asking about the possibility of moving in with us again as well! I might as well start looking into that considering my plans for the future (though knowing the state of shipping from Zhongguo to Valtshora right now it'll take a bit). Ivan also said he was gonna offer to bring his boyfriend Aoi to Valtshora if we'll find him somewhere to stay, can do that.
+==== Wednesday ====
+Nothing notable really, Ariyadna was staying here and talking to Lotte a bunch while I've been busy working with Iorena to manage the Motyl Massacre.
+Aleksey was running around like a maniac outside with the dog, they both kept falling over and having fun.
+Also I'm pretty sure Ariyadna did tell Lotte about Claire and the ears, can't wait for her to tell Aleksey and the secret to come out (gonna be hilarious).
+==== Thursday ====
+Guess I'm just a bit sentimental but I had to look, that conversation was nagging me a lot.
+Marina doesn't have a grave or honor anywhere, could she still be out there? She was in the logs for the camps but nothing on her getting killed, looked everywhere in the database for Marina Novikov but there's nothing. Please gods, please let Marina be alive, wherever she is now.
+Accepted a few interviews after looking about Marina this morning, guessing that it wont be published at all considering I kept dodging the pitfalls they'd place in front of me, wasn't even well hidden, would've thought these fucks would try a little harder with their tricks but oh well.
+==== Friday ====
+Not really much to address other than the same as yesterday, told the fucks in Motyls ring to fuck off and worked with Iorena.
+Though I did have a talk with Ivan after everyone fell asleep, apparently hes not going back to Zhongguo now. He bought a shabby little apartment in the main city and is moving in there while waiting for his stuff and Aoi to come over (so he can move in with me and Yumiko of course), he wanted to make sure I'm alright and wont get hurt with the shit happening now.. guess he really does know how I am, I will definitely break if Motyl gets in office and having Ivan here might be for the best really.
+Good luck then, Iorena, hopefully the worst wont come to happen.
