Alright then, it's a promise.

on more serious topics -- why the teams? you said we all have the same goal, but it's not an individual competition? like 35 vs 35?

[becomemod]

It'd be even more brutal if only one person's home was for sure safe.

[ballies]

There's only four of us here. Four worlds out of... what, 34? Being safe if we win isn't exactly the consolation prize your boss probably thinks it is.

[becomemod]

Five of us. My world is also tied up in this stuff.

We're looking into ways to make sure everybody's safe when it ends.

[ballies]

really? you've been here longer than us, they didn't... like...

make you do all this and then spin a redux with us as well?

[becomemod]

No, I'm pretty sure I'd remember something like that happening.

[ballies]

weird... that's a long time to keep someone hostage.

[becomemod]

Six months is already a long time, we haven't found a way back yet.

We're still looking now.

[ballies]

Yeah, especially when you're kidnapped.

no luck, huh. this must be a really big secret for the higher ups or something like that?

[becomemod]

Or something like that. I'd love for things to be clearer than they are.

Sorry about all of this. It sucks.

[ballies]

unless you literally planned and executed our kidnapping--

[ which if they did, she'll 1 v 1 them behind a hero denny's ]

then you're as adrift up this river as we are.

[becomemod]

I wouldn't. I thought it was insane when we first got here.

We're all in this boat together.

[ballies]

… it’s a pretty terrible boat, I’ll be honest. what’s happening back home, is everything just… moving on like nothing happened to us?

[becomemod]

Better to be honest about how awful it is.

No, time in our worlds is frozen while we're here.

[ballies]

…


I’ll….


… update you when i figure out if i think that’s a good thing or not.

[becomemod]

I'll be here.

[ballies]

It’s not like either of us really have anywhere else to go.

[becomemod]

That's true. We could meet in the theater room sometime. Not that it really counts as going somewhere.

[ballies]

Oooh. What movies do they have down there?

[becomemod]

You haven't checked it out yet? I tried to get just about everything. The one in our basement has a better range than the theater in the mall.

Is there a genre you want to watch?

[ballies]

we did only just get here, really. so, no i haven't had the chance to. we're keeping this room secret, right?

ooooh. a comedy, maybe?

[becomemod]

We are.

J*manji: Welcome to the Jungle is a fun one.

[ballies]

and that's non-negotiable.

[ i googled this and i hate that tama would know what this movie is, even if she didn't exist in 2017. ]

the 2017 one? i remember seeing info about it in my searches.

[becomemod]

[ I'm sorry do you hate Jack Black? ]

That's correct.

Your searches?

If you want to try a stage musical there's "I Love You, You're Perfect, Now Change".

[ballies]

[ absolutely not, but it just reminded me i am playing a 2019 - 2026 modern. ]

... same with the group powers, right?

and yeah, my searches!

[ the title's got her giggling though. ]

that's so mean. "you're perfect, except for this onnnneeee tiny little thing" and then they unroll one of those comically long scrolls
