*I blink in absolute confusion and dumbfoundedness as the cab parks near my beach estate*

For the life of me, i cannot understand how you plan to cure someone that EVIDENTLY lashed out at you several times during our journey already! You are both naïve and a simp! But fine, act like she doesn't actively and perfectly willingly mutilates anything and anyone that give one hint of annoyance to her.

At least i poisoned you cause i had anything to gain from doing that to a near complete stranger that suddenly gained powers from my Tesseract!

*Clearly the influence removed any inhibitions and my old Soldier Boy near abusive gruffness returned in this moment of tension, caused by being framed as a criminal - touching on similar experiences prior to being chosen by Alioth*

Cab AI: Sir i would ask you to calm down and cooperate with the police, if you are innocent and this was just an error, it will come out as such, Have a good day!

*The doors of the cab open upwards, letting us off at what looks like nearly a beach resort of sorts, with Mount olympus towring high through the martian clouds behind us and a pristine beach lit by an early morning sunrise over a calm body of water, and seagulls heard cawcking and gawking about*

If this is an inconvenience to you, we can simply ensure the problem disappears.

*Grunts and takes another swig of my concoction*

You little imp! Hey Prism! What are you looking at? Clearly your girly did something here!

@Shadrack Nor

*Stares blankly*
Misty is perfect and would never do such a thing.

* @Memory Prism - you wake up and you suddenly burp all the cyanite in the form of a smelly gas right back in Misty's face - she keeps trying to hurt you, but this time around, she has met the very first wall she cannot cross -- you however don't know what happened, but you suddenly are sober now*

*I wave my hand at the smell of rotten egg and rotten fish*

*The cab's auto driver causes an alarm:* Warning poisonous gas detected! Venting poisonous gas!

@Shadrack Nor

*Looks up, clearly distracted by something else*

*Under the influence of hemp and alcohol i also raise a thumb up*

Yyyeeeeeaaaah! TAXI!

@Shadrack Nor

*Immediately falls over flat on my face*

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Memory>

Let me see here...

*Grabs the tesseract, hooks it back to my belt, then concentrates on the palm of my hand as it begins to glow with that nuclear fiery glow, then a vorterx of incandescent light starts forming like a bulbous tornado in my palm, and a full bottle of what looks like a green concotion of about 3 liters seems to manifest*

Ah... i do so love this custom concoction of mine! Hemp Whisky! Wanna try? *I open the bottle and chug a massive drink of it*

@Shadrack Nor

Certainly.
*Takes the bottle awkwardly and downs a large drink of it*

<Snipped quote by Memory>

Soldier Boy: You really are here to torture me are you? If i don't stay drunk or high for at least two days after what we just went through, the asylum is my next destination!

Alioth: WELL, MY TIME IS NEARLY UP AS THE TESSERACT IS ABOUT TO STABILIZE AGAIN! BEN! YOU NEED TO TOUGHEN UP, BECAUSE THESE LAST 7 MONTHS FOR YOU WERE JUST THE BEGINNING AND WHAT YOU THOUGHT WAS REAL IS ONLY GOING TO COME CRUMBLING DOWN EVEN HARDER SOON!

*As Alioth says those final words, the blazing incandescent yellow tesseract with the ring of fire and light around it, flickers, faulters, then drops to the ground humming back with that low intensity crimson glow revealing the hypercube through the crystal*

@Shadrack Nor

Whatever comes next, we will be able to handle it.
*Stands with unusual rigidity*

<Snipped quote by Memory>

Alioth: YEAH... HE'S NOT... WHY DO THESE SHUTTLES OFFER DRINKS TO SOLDIERS... AH HUMANS, THEY GO TO WAR PHYSICALLY THEN THEY GO TO WAR AGAINST THEMSELVES... SO MUCH DISORDER AND IMBALANCE IN THIS CREATURES!

Soldier Boy: *Hicks and stumbles forward and clasps one hand in a 'buddy' resting arm around shoulder gesture* Yoooooo... PR-IJMMMM! Th-is ihsss my buddy from a far away land pals! *Gestures to you melodramatically to attract the attention of the disembarking soldiers -- Clearly lost it right now and drunk*

Alioth: *Sighs in frustration*

@Shadrack Nor

*Flicks my hand and all alcohol disappears from your system*
Problem resolved.

<Snipped quote by Etcetera>

Alioth: JUST SO YOU KNOW BEN, MY COMMUNICATION ABILITIES ARE EXTREMEMLY LIMITED WHEN INTERVENING IN SUCH LOWER DIMENSIONS AS YOUR UNIVERSE, AND ONLY ABLE TO REALLY EXERT AUTONOMY WHEN THE TESSERACT IS PUSHED TO REALITY BENDING EXTREMES, SO WE WON'T BE ABLE TO TALK FOR LONG, BUT BASICALLY --

Soldier Boy: You plucked me... hick! from my world, and dropped me in this storm of utter refuse without much explaining right?

Alioth: I... EH... YOU ARE ALREADY TOO DRUNK RIGHT? YOU'LL SOON SEE THE REASONS WHY...

*The pilot announces that we docked and that we may disembark, while the rest of the soldiers just look like they've seen a ghost when looking at the three of us*

@Shadrack Nor

*Stares*
I apologize for the interruption. We may proceed.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Memory>

*Shoves two fingers through your forehead, and your mind is veiled from itself, me, and those around us, isolating your subconscious in a structure akin to a pocket dimension*

@Etcetera

*Hits one knee in response*

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Memory>

* Again that bellowing cosmic voice now pierces through whatever mental shielding had, and on top of the sedation, she is now compelled to relax and take a breather with a strong sense of 'what the heck just happened to my will' *

@Shadrack Nor

*Frowns and shifts uncomfortably*

<Snipped quote by Memory>

*All effects and chaotic influences in the dimension cease once your influence ability activates, but your own consciousness finds itself in a peaceful void, standing on an onyx surface extending infinitely in every direction and deaf to all external influences, and your physical body appears to be a version of itself full of static*

*Grins*

Misty, what are you—
