Welcome to the Program

[airlockedmods]

Good Morning, Champions. In the interest of maintaining healthy sleep patterns, a day/night cycle is in effect. Your presence is expected in the cafeteria in exactly one hour.

[The voice comes through not a large speaker, but through the device that's attached to each Champion's arm. Further investigation of the features of the device will reveal a list of profiles, a mini-map, and a list of rules. The hallways are shiny white and silver, with running lights along the floor and lights on the ceiling, and at the junction of the hallways is a sign with a knife and fork icon and an arrow pointing down the hall.

Welcome to the Excellence Program, Champions. Time to get to know your teammates.]

If you have to rely on magic alone to heal it, is it really a disease or something else? Or has your medicine simply not advanced far enough to treat it properly?

I don't know, dude. I'm just a guy, I'm not a doctor or a medical researcher or anything. Lady Lunafreya probably knows a lot more about it than I do.

...This does make it more difficult. People from other planets, alternate realities. If you aren't from the same place, why should you care if they get back or not? If their reality has no impact on your own? Everyone is going to have to be very careful here.

...Yeah.

[He could argue, maybe, but he grew up in a world perpetually at war. There's Us and there's Them. That's just how it is.]

I think some people will care. I care. [Just in case Kaiba thinks he doesn't.] I guess we'll just have to remind the others that it's gonna be a lot easier to get out of here working together than at odds.

Cooperation does have its merits. Sometimes.

[photoshooter]

Only sometimes?

[playthedamncard]

Did I stutter?

[photoshooter]

No, no, you're entitled to your opinion.
