*Raises a fist over my own head to match*
Let’s gooo!
*Turns around toward the crater and pecks at my phone*
I was trying to see if Dad had any options for signal tracking. Either I’m just really dumb, or we’re gonna have to comb the area carefully for minor rifts. I think the good news would be that since these are holes in space that I can only assume are opened regularly if they exist, that the tears should stay fresh for longer? I think?
*Walks around the crater, in particular near the derelict equipment*
It’s all just me assuming things. I don’t actually know how this stuff works in practice.

@Audacious

*Shrugs*
As far as I get it, all of them are sending signals to other random stations. I don't know why or how that does anything. But maybe it means it's as common as we need it to be.

*Is standing with one hand on my hips near the lip of the crater I dug on our first trip*
You got it?

@Audacious

*Raises the machine above my head with both hands*
Victory is ours!

*Waves with my free hand and clicks back onto the movie just as a jumpscare strikes*
Sure. Just call me when you're coming back and I'll make sure I hit the road before she gets here.

@Legend Begins

Thanks! I think.
*Holds the polyhedronous piece of technology under my arm as I give you an awkward high five from behind*
I'll let you know how it goes.

*Walks into the open space by the first station, closing the portal behind me and letting out an exhausted sigh before glancing around again*

@Audacious

*Warps back to the base station*

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Legend>

Oh. Yeah. I get it. No problem.

@Legend Begins

Well, um. Awkwardness aside, I'll be going and thanks for the tool.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Legend>

Really?
*Tosses the device behind me while I pause the movie with my other hand, frozen on a foggy, rotted hallway*
Where's Vi?

@Legend Begins

She stuck around on the other world. She sort of found out who your old dad was, aaaaaaand...

*Flinches, causing cheese balls to briefly fly into the air*
Huh? Oh yeah, sure. Wrong movie to sneak up on me.

@Legend Begins

Sorry. We're in a rush.

*Walks into the open space by the first station, closing the portal behind me and letting out an exhausted sigh before glancing around again*

@Audacious

*The region seems exactly the same as when we left it*
Oh hey Arty, can we borrow your scanner for a while?

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Legend>

*Walks through backwards, still smiling*
It'll only be a moment. See you in a minute.

@Audacious

*Waves and returns back home*

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Legend>

I had one.
*Smiles*
Don't worry so much about me.
*Turns with my phone out and opens a portal back to the prior system*

@Audacious

Okay, if you're sure... See you on the other side.
*Opens a portal back to our apartment*

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Legend>

Thanks... And I'm sorry, I'm not trying to be difficult. Or mean.

@Audacious

It's okay. Are you... you know, absolutely sure you don't want to take a breather? You've done a lot already.
