Forte's really irritated about Gospel being
chibied, but the Nexus offers no solutions other than to wait it out.

Forte's still hiding out and waiting for Gospel's chibi LOL to wear off, which it does just as they spot a metool that's giving
directions to Quint's party. ((NOTE: There was one
post of him staying with Patience during this, but it's locked now and I can't access it. I'll try again with a few other journals later and if I can I'll copy the data for reference.))
Plant has a busy day, first dropping by a Nexus version of Hogwarts to meet with Remus Lupin and obtain a cutting of a
venomous tentacula.
Quint has a
party, which several of the currently active Wilybots attend, as well as a few Transformers and an alternate of Crashman. Plant brings the cutting with her. Blues crashes the party, and it's finally revealed that the Blues who'd been harrassing Quint in the Nexus was an alternate.
Later Plant visits Stonecutter Field on the Island of Nay in one of the Suikoden univeres, with help from
Wendel, manages to
capture a Savage Sprout for her garden.

Quint tries to help Air calm down once Rock's gone, but things don't go so well and Air leaves.

Chibi!Mega is in the
Nexus again, and this time
Crystal is singled out as a target.
Blues also allows himself to be
chibied, out of curiosity. (In retrospect, the play threads should have been done on Sages, since no one found them on the other forum)
Tango asks about
favorite toys.
Armada!verse Decepticons are still
looking for Starscream. Quint's still not telling them, not that he really knows anything at that point.
And Runaways!Quick is looking for Air, who still
hasn't returned home. Quint doesn't like this news, considering the last time he'd seen Air. Search parties manage to find Air, but one of Runaways!Wind's personality override chips is
in control. They have to fight him and knock him out in order to take him to
Waspinator's and have it removed.
October 25
Tango sees another cat in the
Nexus.
Quint talks to an AI named Jane, who asks a

Rock learns about
Navi!verse alts.
Snake doesn't understand why people would want
tattoos.
Quint meets
Naviverse!Forte, initially mistaking him for the Naviverse!Bass he'd met earlier. There's some bad news here, and again Quint tries to help as much as he can. (Unfortunately, what might have been an interesting plot was unresolved due to chara droppage.)
And the strange
VGCats/Asimov!Mega is back again.

There's a
Chibiverse!Blues in the Nexus.
October 28
Leader-1 thinks Quint should be
getting more sleep. Quint's really overworking himself between the job at Trivs, going between there and the Nexus, and setting up a Gallery in Tarantulas's old lair on Waspinator's version of prehistoric Earth. Not to mention all the other preparations for the upcoming problems.

Blues' Journal,

Quint and Leader-1 see a
pikachu in the nexus. Understanding it is another matter.
Quint thinks he might have messed up on being a
duckling when someone tells him that the costumes are supposed to be scary, but decides it's ok since it seems to be working and getting him a lot of candy anyway.
Ballade notices there are people in the Nexus handing out candy, and that he might be able to get some without revealing that he can disobey orders. But first he needs a
costume.
The
Nexus isn't the only place to get candy. Quint and Leader-1 attend at least one Halloween party.
Elec checks out a
few Halloween parties too, while searching for Ice. He finds Ice at one of these.
