*Raises an eyebrow*
What do you mean by that?

@Multifarious

I masked my own appearance, and I anticipate that Techi has done the same. There’s a difference between a facade for your own sake and a facade for the sake of those around you.

I don’t know what that constant even does.
*Snatches the hat quickly and puts it on my head before anyone can see*
I’m just after the practicality. I hate dealing with racism.

@Multifarious

It allows persistent simulated objects outside of the lab’s ecosystem.
*Glances at you from the side*
I think you may judge too quickly, however.

<Snipped quote by Etcetera>

... You got a hat I can borrow?

@Multifarious

Ah, an immediate use for Fourteen’s Constant.
*A hat materializes in my hands*
Let me know if you’d prefer another style.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Etcetera>

If it is, I hope it’s not an issue of disliking people who aren’t human.
*Points to my ears*

@Multifarious

That’s a good point. You may get questions.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Etcetera>

I avoid it unless it’s necessary. Is this a human world?

@Multifarious

It usually is with her. But I can’t say for certain.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Etcetera>

*Walks with you*
Rustic.

@Multifarious

It’s one of many places you’ll find my older sister.
*Starts walking inside*
I recommend against using abilities in this dimension.
*A holographic image of myself appears around me*

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Etcetera>

Yeah, let’s see what kind of surprise is in store for us.

@Multifarious

*Walks through the portal, arriving in an alley next to a small coffee shop with a tan sign labeled “Silent Monk Coffee”*

<Snipped quote by Etcetera>

...
Call me Akora.
*Shakes your hand*

@Multifarious

Thank you, Akora. Shall we go?

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Etcetera>

*Follows behind you, taking the ruins in as we go*

@Multifarious

Before we leave.
*Holds out my hand*
I couldn’t have completed this without the two of you. Thank you so much for your help today, Ms...?

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Etcetera>

Sounds good.

@Multifarious

*Steps outside through the ruins of the five chambers and sends a location request; a few minutes later, a portal opens in front of me*
