I don't know if this is still technically the place everyone was calling Tabula Rasa, or if we've all been relocated, temporarily or otherwise. I don't know what's up with the population, all those people that aren't really there. (Maybe whoever was doing the interdimensional transport mucked up the landing, and from their perspective, we're the ( Read more... )

It's not even Chris's idea this time. It's Tony that comes to him, saying that there ought to be another party.
