Interlude 1

[ttlyisabard]

Well isn't this interesting ... I wonder. Does this mean the ship is breaking? Or does Redd just do this for fun? Has anyone seen if the crew change when these things happen?

At least it's good to know that I hold together alright. Ah! [She squeeks.] Alright, maybe I shouldn't walk that fast

[He's snickering, Miss Kate.]

[ttlyisabard]

And who's that laughing there?

[ttlynotawizard]

[It is laughing now.]

Sorry, Miss Kate.

[ttlyisabard]

Oh it's you. You can't laugh at me, your hair is always white ...

[She started laughing with him.]

[alittlegreedy]

... I think I liked the younger you a little better.

[ttlyisabard]

Why do you say that? Am I nagging now? I didn't think I was being different ...

[alittlegreedy]

Nahh, nothing with you personally. Just like women being young more.

[ttlyisabard]

Yeah? So do I ...

[Erp]

[ntjstapwn]

Food doesn't fix everything.

*But it does help*

Why would the ship be breaking?

[ttlyisabard]

Not the whole ship ... just the thing they use to bring us here. And keep us here it seems ...

[Oops, probably a bad thing to suggest.]

[ntjstapwn]

...wait, what?!

Does that mean we can get out or that we're going to die?

[ttlyisabard]

I ... uh ... no ... if the system broke I think we'd just disappear ...

[She had a hard time explaining that she didn't think they were actually here. That they were just copies here, echoes, remnants of their selves that were rescued from the cosmic floatsam left after whatever happened to the universe. Kate's own mind couldn't grasp those thoughts and put them into anything cohesive. That was the trouble without knowing much about science.]
