[IC] Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Memory>

See... you say that, which concerns me... *I casually punch and invert another brute as we talk, and for a short while they even seem afraid and start backtracking in doubt at how brutal we are* Is he even on our side? or is he going to kill everyone here?

@Shadrack Nor

I don’t think he picks sides.
*Kneels down and grabs my pen and pad*
If either of them turn on us, killing everyone would be a mercy.

Then he won't be there to defend it when the cavalry arrives. Besides, the tower needs an operator. In terms of functionality, it has to have an operator like a pilot in the cockpit of a plane. I suppose he could always change that, but I don't see why he would do that.

@Valiance

Unless it’s a trap, and he aims to wipe out your entire strike force at once.

@System

Using his own magnum opus as a lure doesn't quite strike me as a likely occurrence. But I can't call it impossible, I suppose.

@Valiance

I’m wary that he’ll take advantage of the predictable response. Surely Garsun isn’t foolish.

*At that statement, the Tesseract bursts into a bright red glow, but aside from that, nothing really seems to happen, but for whatever reason both you and me feel like if it could it would have laughed menacingly*

Did you just laughed... like really? *ask wide eyed as i look at you then i realised it wasn't you as i notice the red glow from the suddenly active cube* Now this is cool... *I pat it fondly*

@System

It's circumstance dependent, certainly. Historically, he was an eager experimenter. His main concern is whether he can do something, not whether he should. I'm not a part of the organized effort to retaliate against him, at least for now, but if I was, that's something I'm confident enough to plan around.

@Valiance

Do you trust your colleagues’ capabilities on that front?

@Shadrack Nor

How long will it take to charge the teleporter and get us out of here?

@Memory

I could... probably... get us out of here right now using the Tesseract. But i'll have to return after that to the battlefield down bellow. I can't leave mah bro Grey there alone...

[Valiance]

@System

I trust them to handle things as individuals who I see as either as capable as I am, or moreso. And I trust the system that's held the ideals and principles of our side of Existence the same way they've held things together forever, and I lastly trust that if I am explicitly needed, that I will be communicated with. We run a well oiled machine, even though you've peeled the curtain back at a bad time.

@Shadrack Nor

We should all go at once. It’s too delicate a situation to stagger our leave.

*Chuckles*
Perhaps. Your people dealt with Garsun once already.

@Memory

You got it pal! all saty in my general vicinity!

*I declare as i pull out my Tesseract and stare into it's core light and start chanting*

'By your light, by your power, let reality shimmer, turn us back to safety!'

*Immediately after that all of us that were previously in the hall deck, we find ourselves now in the landing bay of one of the massive freighters high in orbit around Phobos. Plenty of space, and a lot of confused TD (Terran Dominion) soldiers all around*

Well that worked way better than i expected...

*I chuckle awkwardly at the sudden turn of events*

@System

A long time ago. I will grant that almost no one from that time is still around, but I believe it makes little difference.

@Valiance

Do you have any indication that someone else from that era survived?

That could have gone much, much worse.
*On the other end of the teleportation, both Misty and Gemini are gone*

<Snipped quote by Legend>

No!
*My head instinctively motions toward dad for just a moment of hesitation before returning to you*
Sh—shut up! You can be better at this game than me. You can be a better Cloud than me. I don't care. You know why, Stella? I'm a better person than you.
*Storms off to my room and slams the door*

<Snipped quote by Threads of Fate>

So what was the point? What did you get out of me, and what do I get out of this dead life?

@Etcetera

*Shrugs*
I never really had a reason. I did things, things happened. The original goal was to use you to prevent something, but that was never really my goal. I just wanted to find someone who could be interesting, and you certainly were that!

Can you believe how mad she was? I don’t get what she’s so angry about, it’s just a dumb game.

@Threads of Fate

All that, and you still died. Left me. Was it worth it?
