I haven't read the books in years but from what I remember The Atlas is still a time machine and a teleporter in one, with no limits to how far forward back or around a person can go. The main thread is more that speed, this is for mistborn-ish power levels.

If you get to Elendel and the Atlas leaves then that could work

Mist says that I already have too many characters on the main thread, and Herate can't be done until after we have left Sel...

Okay, apparently I need to start a new RP because I've already joined all of the ones that Andante could be a part of. *devious smile*

New character: shoot. First of the Sun has a perpendicularity, maybe I'll have a trapper-in-training?

OH! I REALLY like that idea, Aviar are underused.

Looking up some information, did you know that Streamers can hide Allomancy and Breaths? Now I'm thinking I'll have a little spy...

What? For you? Okay, should I use Giocoso, Tempo, or Sosternuto? They're all small enough that they could work.

Yeah they almost act like a coppercloud iirc. And the other one acts a lot like an electrum shadow. My theory is that there are 14 other types of Aviar for the 16 types of Allomancy.

That would be cool, do you think I could make that up to add one bird to whoever's repertoire?

I'm not sure what you mean. I just meant that this makes a really good espionage team.

Okay, meet (shoot, I can't use a musical name because he or she is a trapper in training) Second of the Night, you can call her Night or Noche.

She has coarse, matte, and curly black hair with striking eyebrows. Her skin is such a deep brown that it almost looks black, and her irises are the same color except they have flecks of silvery gold. She wears loose, nondescript, and black(long sleeves, pants) clothing with no shoes, and she carries lockpicks secured to her lower arm and wrist. She also has a pack on her back, it has who-knows-what in it. She's generally quiet, but when you challenge her or stand in her way, she can get sassy.
Got here by stumbling into the perpendicularity, she wandered around and came out here. She's confused and worried, but I don't think she'll admit it.
Noche has one Aviar, a Streamer named Alba that is black streaked with gold and silver accents(they match). This Aviar will follow her anywhere, because they've been together since Noche was 5. Noche is now 10.
Had a older brother, but he died at the age of five along with her mother from a shadow attack. She was two, and then the next year her father began to train her as a trapper after giving her Alba, her Aviar. She's come to terms with both, but she often wonders what her life would be like if they were still alive, even going so far as to imagine her brother with her. She... kind of thinks he's still alive. (I know, I know, super cliche and also I stole this from Andante because I couldn't wait to use it). Her father is often off trapping without her, so she's taught Alba a bunch of tricks. She has no formal fighting training, but she's graceful and stealthy.
Most of all, she's often worried or confused, but she won't admit it. She'll just try to bluff her way through it.

What do you think of this one?

I like it! I do think that with all the horribly awesome deadly stuff on that planet, pneumonia is kinda a boring way to go, but that’s just me.

Neat.

I'm down for that, besides everyone else has a coppercloud.

Sorry, that was left over from Andante. Say... a shadow?

I'm not sure what's happening with Alba here, but I needed some way for you guys to find Noche, and she wasn't going to follow you.

Dark eyes watched the newcomers from the shadows.

Noche had chosen these shadows late last night when she had left that backward realm. She didn't understand most of it, but she understood that they were going to leave. Good. Then she could find out more about this place so unlike where she lived, and figure out how to get back to what she knew.

She stroked Alba's head, silently urging her to keep quiet. The beautiful bird had been a gift when her father first thought she was ready. She didn't know why he hadn't given First of the Daylight, or Luz, one, but she was grateful for Alba.

Luz walked up and sat down beside her. "What are you doing now, little sister?"

Noche turned her head toward him, then raised her finger to her lips. For some reason, no one else could hear him, but if she talked, they would hear her. She thought it was a new Aviar, but whenever she asked him, he wouldn't tell her anything.

Luz smiled. "All right, I'll be quiet. You can tell me later." He reached out to stroke Alba's head, but when he touched her, Alba let out a little squawk. Noche quickly put her finger over the bird's mouth, but it was too late. She glared at Luz, unsure of what he had done but sure that it had been him.

A small squawk made Venten turn, there-on the shoulder of a small child-was the most colorful bird he had ever seen.

"Who are you?"

Miera saw they were far off the ground and quickly backed away from the window. Obviously that was what the lady had meant by "don't fall". She looked at the bookshelf. At least there might be some kind of information she could glean from that. 

@I Am A Fish

The bookshelf was on the shorter side, and covered in books of all shapes and sizes.

[Negative_Null They/Them]

Miera grabs a book at random. It was fortunate she'd been taught to read in the Tower.

The cover is brown leather. In black ink, the title reads: The Eila Stele, translated by the monks of the Jokasha Monastery

Interesting. Probably not helpful. She set it in a pile and started grabbing every book on the shelf and sorting them into different categories.

I won't list them all...

Just pick books that have been mentioned, or hinted at in the comere.

 

[Negative_Null They/Them]

So they're all books that have been mentioned in canon?

"Way of Kings... something about stories, proper ruling, bla bla... might be interestng later"

"The Words of Founding... boring"

"Ars Arcanum... a study of magics? That could be worth reading"

She's hiding in the shadows... I'll just ignore that. The Aviar is black with silver and golden streaks.

Did you know that gabi is Filipino for night? Yes, she's ignoring your question.

Noche stood up, the man had already seen her. She stared at him, silently daring him to try something. Alba stood up taller and Luz sauntered over to the man, looking into his eyes. "Oh, this one's different," he said. Noche looked at him and smirked. No duh, big brother! she thought.
