"I could ask the same thing out of you," Farris said. As she answered Marianne's question with one of her own, the dark-skinned girl's voice remained rather casual, despite her peer's not-so-veiled threats. "I suppose I can agree with that. We should find a better name for ourselves. But that's a matter for another time, right now, we have more pressing issues to attend to," she added as the structure of the tower began to collapse around them.

The fabric of reality being unraveled around her was of no concern to Farris who was born of the union of Space and Time. She didn't suffer from as much disorientation as others likely would when being suddenly shunted into a new plane of existence, even if it was another of the Tower's simulacra. In fact, when they landed in the new world, Farris found hers and Marianne's positions to be more or less swapped. Now, the dark-skinned girl held her pale peer in her arms, in a bridal carry.

Farris didn't make any effort to conceal the smirk on her lips. "Maybe, you should find someone less prone to temper tantrums. Not that I think it makes any difference to you of all people, does it?" She answered the other girl's question, pointing to the fact Marianne likely had no attachment to this "host" of her other than what the Tower forced her to.

Meanwhile, in an inconspicuous bar, not that far away from the place the others landed. The door swung open, prompting a clanging bell to break the uncharacteristic stillness brought about by Katie's moody... mood.

A couple moments later, a girl dressed in [url=https://danbooru.donmai.us/posts/5045906]fashionable garbs one would expect of a VIP customer[/url] sat at the counter, right beside the object of attraction of most of the present, patrons and staff alike. "Two of your best strawberry milkshakes, please. One for me, and one for the lady over here. And don't forget the cherry on top, please," Erika said to whoever was running the bar.

"So, do you come over here very often?" the blonde said to her cousin, trying to sound as serious and suave as possible, even though she was kind of having to hold back from laughing at her own joke.
