Anybody know anything about the tower between the forest and the lake?

*Sollux can also be found at the base of said tower, contemplating.*

Between the forest and the lake?

[Is that on the map? Lily checks.]

Uhh, I don't know anything. Didn't even notice it.

[ commentlog ]

[unit_67]

Super nice. Look! [She points.] Waaay over there is the Green. And there's the chapel...

[Everything is so pretty. How the fuck did Lily survive without this? There's the lake, and the barracks, and...

... another trap door. Lily points to aforementioned door.]

What's in there?

Re: [ commentlog ]

[thii2ii22tupiid]

Nothing!

*Uh, well, that came out a little faster than he'd wanted. Sollux clears his throat and tries again.*

Nothing but darkness and weird time shit.

[unit_67]

[Lily blinks. Hmm... Now you've got her curiosity piqued. Lily kneels down and moves to open the door. Darkness she can deal with, but...]

Weird time shit like what?

[Commentlog]

[thii2ii22tupiid]

*Sollux uses his powers to shut the door. You aren't getting in there, Lily B|*

The people I went in there with came out two weeks after I did, but to them they were only in there for a few hours. I was in there for days.

*He moves closer to the trap door.*

[unit_67]

[Alright, Lily's going to overlook the freaky psychic power shit for the sake of this conversation, but expect questions later.]

Two weeks? Is that even possible? [Dumb question. Welcome to the magic castle, moron.] Is there anything actually in there at all?

[SHE IS DYING TO INVESTIGATE]

[ commentlog ]

[thii2ii22tupiid]

Clearly its fucking possible if it happened.

No. Nothing but darkness.

*Unless you got lucky...or unlucky.
He eyes the door like it'd bite him if he wasn't careful. And doesn't relase it with his psionics.*

[unit_67]

Then what's the point of it being there? [Again, it's a magic fucking castle and it'll do what it wants.] I just... It's weird, isn't it? There's nothing in it at all, but we still have access to it. Why not seal it off?

[ commentlog ]

[thii2ii22tupiid]

.........because we opened it without knowing what it was.

[ commentlog ]

[unit_67]

Right.

[But it's so ENTICING. What's a better place to explore than a labyrinth? I mean, ignoring the weird time shit. Sounds fun to her, but Sollux obviously thinks otherwise. Fine, she will drop the subject for now, but don't be surprised when she disappears and shows up a month later saying "You told me so."

So let's move on to this freaky psychic power shit. She points to the trap door, stuck in Sollux's psionics.]

How are you doing that?

[ commentlog ]

[thii2ii22tupiid]

Just...stay out of there.

*Please don't make him actually ask nicely. Or mention why he thinks/knows its so bad.*

I'm psychic. Its one of the things I can do.

[ commentlog ]

[unit_67]

Fine.

[What a dick.]

What's that mean, though? Psychic.

[ commentlog ]

[thii2ii22tupiid]

It means I can do things with my mind, like move things and see the future.

[ commentlog ]

[unit_67]

... See the future.

[That's an interesting concept. Even Lily can't do that. She's quiet for a moment, then...]

Just your own, or...?

[ commentlog ]

[thii2ii22tupiid]

No, more than that. But it doesn't work here so don't ask. All I can do here is move things and barely even that.

*Well and eyebeams.*

[ commentlog ]

[unit_67]

Oh. Alright, then.

[Damn, she really wanted to know what the one pumpkin was talking about last month. Oh well.]

Is it hard for you to live with your powers all reduced like they are?
