Do terrible things tend to happen here right around major holidays?

Most people didn't make much of it, other than having to live in the same house at least some of the time. Our case was a bit... unusual, that was all.

Kinda. There were constructs who insisted all the relationships were real. Sometimes there were constructs filling out the household if there weren't enough kidnapees to fill in father, mother and two kids.

A little bit, especially on the bad days.

"I would guess that it is hard to quantify an aspect like death in any single place in time."

Re: Voice

Exactly. I'm basically everywhere.

"Multiple aspects seems a bit more efficient than time manipulation as well."

Re: Voice

[acapriciousthing]

There's that too. Usually the aspects are a little more connected than this, but something about Mayfield caused spinoff.

"Well, it sounds like a horrible place, at least you've gotten free."

Horrible about sums it up. I just hope the boys are alright.

"Well, I will speculate that there was a massive jailbreak. Perhaps they were cast adrift as you were or returned home."

Re: Voice

[acapriciousthing]

That's what I'm hoping, at any rate. As long as they're safe, that's the important part.
