*Wakes up in a bed in the medical area of the base. I sit up and look around for a moment, gathering my bearings, before sauntering out of the room*

Enjoy that reunion. I'll be taking my leave as well.

@Fractured

*Nods*
Take care.
*Leaves*

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Valiance>

I would never have guessed you were weak to ropes.

@Fractured

My Kryptonite, admittedly.
*Chuckles*
I jest. Anyway, I think I’ll take my leave now. I have a brother who’ll likely be very happy to see me.

<Snipped quote by Valiance>

I'll give Nemid credit; that's the most appropriate name for that ability I can imagine.

@Fractured

It’s horrible. The most frightening part about it is that I feel no effects coming off of it. It’s almost like I was just in a natural state of being.
*Shudders*
You guys should just tie me down whenever anything remotely dangerous happens, by the way. This is about the fourth or fifth time I’ve been coaxed to the other side in such a way. It’s rather old by now.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Valiance>

I'm glad that I didn't have to return the favor.

@Fractured

Mm. It’d have been quite the rematch. You’re undoubtedly much more capable than your past self, and I was juiced up on Nemid’s druglike influence. Draft, I think they called it?
*Shakes my head*
Regardless, I’m sure the you now would be too much for me.

Myriad Reality

*Laughs*
Have as much apprehensiveness as you need. I think you'll find that Fourth and Data are quite trustworthy.

@Fractured

With time, comrade. With time.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Valiance>

*Smiles*
Of course. I'm the protector I was always designed to be.

@Fractured

You’ll understand if I’m still apprehensive, given past incarnations and the questionable nature of your creator, but as long as you’re taking these steps in this direction, things are going to be just fine.
*Finally accepts the handshake*

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Valiance>

Rythian.
*Holds out my hand*

@Fractured

I don’t know what you’re all about with this incarnation of yourself... That said, it can’t be ignored that I appreciate your help in this rescue mission.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Nemeses>

After all of that, you're just going to throw it away?

<Snipped quote by Heroic>

Ignore it, that's just one less hostage to worry about.

@Fractured

*Walks up to you*
... Unity.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Valiance>

*Steps between you*

@Source

*Swoops low and falls backward, catching myself on my hands and kicks you upward through the ceiling into the next floor, jumping up after you*
