How Obtained
Using a Pouch of Many Lost Things or its derivatives.
Huh. You haven't seen this thing since the weekend you spent in El Segundo. You'd given it up for lost a long time ago, and of course the money is gone (not that you had much in it to begin with), but having some of the other bits of paper back is nice. Here's your library card, your grocery store discount card, and a couple of old fortune cookie fortunes that were too funny to throw away. You feel like your old self again, only more so. You get an effect, Strong Sense of Self. (Added for 60 minutes.)
Using multiple: Same as single use
<player> smiles broadly when you give them back their missing wallet.
You feel really good about giving back that lost item. The smile on <player>'s face just made your day. It gives you a nice, warm feeling. You get an effect, Toasty Heart. (Added for 30 minutes.)
- Trying to return the item to yourself:
- You start to return this lost item to yourself, but then you realize: this is not your beautiful house, this is not your beautiful lost item. By definition, if it's in your possession and it's lost, then it can't belong to you. Thus you can't return it to yourself, or it wouldn't be lost. Ergo, lost items must be returned to other people, who, by definition, are the only ones for whom this lost item might become found. Comprende?
Effect on Receiver:
The receiver gets the item long-lost wallet with no special message.
References
- The use message references the song "I Left My Wallet in El Segundo" by A Tribe Called Quest.
