From the epicenter of the universe to the end of it...

Most people don't like Mondays.

It's the beginning of the workweek, the end of the weekend; no one really wakes up until Tuesday, but of course they're expected in on Monday bright and early. So yes, most people don't like Mondays ( Read more... )

He wandered forward, taking in the silk robes and the tall black hat. He wasn't quite handsome enough to be one of the greater Denizens (at least as well as he could tell) but he had the strange and irreverent tone of one of them.

"You foretold me coming here?"

That probably wasn't a good thing.

"A dimensional pocket at the temporal end of the universe reached via portals from your own dimension that may or may not appear at random intervals depending on unknown variables," reports a neon yellow robot cheerfully.

"More commonly known as Milliways. First time here?" He's smiling as much as he can, but his face isn't really designed for that sort of thing.

...he'd seen quite a few things, some of them quite ridiculous and others just terrifying. The giant talking machine, however friendly he might sound, did get Arthur's first reaction to strange things that shouldn't be speaking to him speaking to him.

"AAAAAAAAAAAAAaaaaaaaaa--oh."

Let it never be said he wasn't quick to recover.

"Um. Yes? Where is here, anyway? Is this a part of the House?"

Up shifts the piece of metal that is Ratchet's brow. That was kind of impressive.

"I'm afraid I don't know what house you're referring to, but probably not. Milliways is a bar and restaurant, among other things, at the end of the universe." He points to the Window.

End of the Universe. He'd just gone from the epicenter to the end, entirely bypassing Earth. And home. And his family.

A glance out the window gave him a view much like many in the House: terrifying, fantastic, and utterly nothing like where he should be.

His heart sunk.

"I don't suppose there's a way back to, um, where I came from, is there?"

Would a blur that comes to a stop and promptly resolves into the form of a white-haired teen help?

"Dude. You're totally in Milliways. Why, you new?" Sure, he looks a little bewildered, but... you never know. Could be a concussion or something.
