Week 7

[airlockedmods]

[Well that weekend sucked. The Champions are down a dad and a bean and shrinking their numbers smaller and smaller, less and less.

There's no sign of life in the spaceport aside from PAL's omnipresent voice and SIS, the helpful asSIStant who has some control over certain heres and theres in the spaceport. She (and PAL) are available at all times and can appear anywhere if called. There is, however, a new floor to explore. Just hop in the elevator and pchoo.]

[She breaths in, shaking her head.] No, no... It's alright, Yurika. It's no harm done. They're just petals.

[Petals she's carefully scooping up into her hand to deposit back on the desk.]

But... you're right. The picture there is... Penny Polendina, from Remnant.

[ratherdoweddings]

That must've been her at the seance, too. "Not your fault, Pyrrha Nikos." Whatever the details were then... it seems like a lot happened, and then this place picked you both up to kick you while you were down.

[tokencanadian]

It probably was... I almost can't believe it. [She's alive. And willing to forgive. If there was such a thing as miracles...]

I can't believe these people would take her, and then come for me.

[ratherdoweddings]

They do seem to pick on certain worlds more than others.

[tokencanadian]

I wonder why, or... why they would take someone as... [Her gaze slips back to the gate sign. Penny...]

I don't even know what kind of girl Penny even was.

[ratherdoweddings]

You didn't even know each other before?

[tokencanadian]

...Not at all. [She shakes her head, thoughts of regret filling it.]

We were just two people that entered the fighting tournament with our teams. It could have been anyone I ran into, but we only met at the final round of the tournament. And that was where...

[ratherdoweddings]

And for what? Why would someone orchestrate all this? It's just like here, being thrown together with strangers and forced into what we've had to do.

[tokencanadian]

It was... to throw the kingdoms into chaos. Or, at least, that was part of it. There was a special power I was supposed to receive during the tournament, but someone evil tracked it down and took it for herself. I think that was the true point of it all.

[ratherdoweddings]

[Yurika bites her lip, hesitating, and then gathers Pyrrha up into a hug.]

I'm so sorry. No one should have to go through that, just being used for someone's profit.

[tokencanadian]

[she didn't think there would be a hug, pardon her as she looks surprised, Yurika. But she reciprocates after a moment. She's always been a naturally good hugger.]

Thanks... Now I'm just worried about the state Remnant must be in. It has to be... I don't even want to think about it, but...

[ratherdoweddings]

[Yurika sighs.]

I know what you mean. Especially considering how long we've been gone.

[tokencanadian]

[She pulls back, still staying at arms-length.]

Not to mention... I'm pretty sure I'm in the future. At least, that's how it seems to be for some of us.

[ratherdoweddings]

Well, we know time travel is part of teleportation, right? At least there's that.

[tokencanadian]

....It is?

[bwuh...]

[ratherdoweddings]

That's how we all got here, isn't it? S.I.S.-chan even told me that they still have the technology here that we had at home, though it's not too often used.

[tokencanadian]

[Stares...]

Oh. O-oh, you mean... right. I'm sorry, it must have slipped my mind. It definitely would explain how we all came to this time.

[ratherdoweddings]

Uh-huh! And they must have something that's safer to use by now.

[tokencanadian]

There was an event several years ago where a person came from the past in a time-traveling spaceship, so I don't think it's impossible there's other ways now.... Now, if only we could find out for sure.

[ratherdoweddings]

The ship itself could travel through time, not just travel through something?

[tokencanadian]

Apparently it came from the past, traveling at "the speed of Brian" to get to the year 6969.

[ratherdoweddings]

The speed of whom?

[tokencanadian]

[Shrugs??]
