this was mentioned in chat as something useful for people on hiatus + people who are new + people who don't have the time to read 300+ comments of npc threads. sooo, here's a state of what's going on so far

brief note! this recap is for ooc purposes only. Characters still gotta icly distribute and talk about what they learned among themselves

( so why are we in a library )

( who tf are all these npcs )

aaaand here's a recap of what's going on in the npc threads post. shout out to Leah who wrote the write-ups for Team Wildfire and Team Lake that I shamelessly copy/pasted

( a recap to save you from reading 300+ comments )

PEOPLE CURRENTLY KIDNAPPED/INCAPACITATED: Lapis, Strange, Lauren, Steven, Jasper

since this is a quick and dirty recap, if you have more specific information about the plot, NPCs, want to write a more detailed thread recap, then comment below! I'll edit/link it into the body of the post itself
