OOC: I don't think we can afford to have the party split, given the low rate of response we're getting. But if you insist that I, an expert draughtsman with arcane power over Space and Time themselves, can only be in one place at once, then I'd be hanging out with the characters I recognize (Big Tim and possibly Custodio) rather than the newcomers. My comment was just a note-to-self, so if you have some strange objection to my offering you plot hooks, then by all means forget it.
I'll just be over here in the corner, using my compass and protractor to draw a geometrically precise pair of twiddling thumbs, whenever you get around to advancing the part of the plot that involves me.
