Beep Beep we're going to Sparby's
Once everyone's in the dick limo and they've watched the Fantasy Sweet burn down behind them (dodging the flaming debris once the pressure builds up enough inside to make the whole thing go nuclear), it's off to the nearest fast food planet.
Which...is about five lightdays away.
Luckily for you, you have your very own Personal Artistic License to keep you entertained. So PAL bounces around the back of the limo, sitting in every lap that will have him, as he tells the story of Kip from the day he hatched as a tiny, impressionable smeet to present.
Sparing absolutely no detail.
Especially about the part where Kip failed his navigator's exam because he stopped at Then-Foodcourtia and crashed the ship into one of the greasy pustules that had sprouted on the planet's surface, destroying the aircraft and boiling his instructor alive in the fiery grease of hell.
So now there's a dick limo parked in the Sparby's parking lot. For anyone who had Arby's or Arby's-adjacent restaurants on their home planet... The menu's not much different. Everything meat-based is 100% beef, the milkshakes look delicious, and of course there are turnovers (apple, cherry, and chocolate).
Which... well, catch Kip and PAL in the corner shoving milkshakes and turnovers in their faces tbh.]
Welcome to Sparby's, Survivors.
You earned it.

[Oh my god the color drains completely out of Jane's face. If she wasn't holding onto Xander, she'd be shaking. A lot.]
Wh...but...no...no...J-Jesus Christ...no, it would've been terrible if you were, but...
[She's suddenly really not hungry anymore]

[She would have broken quite a few pods.]

[Ugh, no, fuck it - questions should come later. Introductions she's been dreaming of for months, now.]
Ah, well, I suppose I'll have all the time to ask, now. [She holds out a hand, the one with the PIP-shaped bulge hiding under her cardigan sleeve.] My name is Jane Crocker, and...they called me the "Champion Heiress". I've really been looking forward to meeting as many of you as possible.

Why are all these people shaking with their left hands???? She nods and returns the handshake.] Nari Nishitani of the Kijin Clan. Champion Elementalist. Kipper said you guys got out, but I figured you'da been caught by now. Or dead. Or homeless.
no subject
A fair amount of us are, technically, without a home to return to. But it's not something I'm worried about at the moment. The short term goal was to find all of you...and the long term is to save everyone else.

[I mean. It's probably in a cool science way, but.]
Do...do you think it's possible, if...we found our friends, she could...help them, too? We don't know where they are, but, the Network's uploaded all our friends' consciousnesses to one simulation - it might be prudent if we had everyone together to fix whatever's been done to them.

[There's a pause.] Hey, um...are you okay? You...didn't get a rash or anything did you?
no subject
Oh! N-No... I just......... we found out we have nanites in our bodies. Skeeves me out... apparently they keep working after death, too.
no subject
Wh...what in the heck. What do they need to put nanites in people for?

[Just. Balling her hands into fists to keep herself from doing anything stupid.]
...I hate that what you're saying makes sense...as if I didn't need another reason to want this thing off of me...

Ah, but it's really kind of complicated. I couldn't make up half of what happened.
