Yes, it seems he's been following us.

fervent rivet
#

Twigs holds up newspapers. “He’s been leaving a lot of these!”

The teal overseer inspects the Caretaker.

pastel vale
#

How do you know H- the owner of that hat?

fluid mauve
#

Wawa!
(I've seen you with him before!)

#

Waaaa!
(Several cycles ago!)

pastel vale
#

The Assistant Wa's back
(Yeah! He's OUR friend!)

#

Remind me, why do you need this information?

fluid mauve
#

We want to know where he is, or what happened to him. He's quite important here...

pastel vale
#

Chary looks around
How about we sit down somewhere and talk about this?

fervent rivet
#

Mouse raises an eyebrow. “Mouse might think… memories fuzzy..”

fluid mauve
pastel vale
#

I've only seen one Iterator that could do that, and they built their own body.

#

I'm guessing my 'new' you mean that you were built after the ascentions?

fluid mauve
#

We were in beta when the Ancients were working on ascending.

fervent rivet
#

Twigs smiles. “I gotta teach that to Pages after we return! She might be able to do it too!”

The overseer looks at Twigs, somewhat stunned.

pastel vale
#

Hm.

#

Chary goes to the Caretaker
Before I tell you anything I need to know what you know about him.

The Assistant warbles

Chary's head tilts down
He's here?

fluid mauve
#

Well, was... thats why we've been looking for him.

fervent rivet
#

Twigs raises an eyebrow. “He’s married? Marriage is disgusting, Blegh!”

pastel vale
#

I know him. The only other person that knew him better is this slugcat and somebody who is missing.

fluid mauve
pastel vale
#

The issue is- he disappeared to us as well. We don't know where he is or what happened to him.

fervent rivet
#

Twigs shrugs. “Are we ever even gonna grow older?”

pastel vale
#

Yes.

fluid mauve
#

Now that the cycle is gone, yes we can grow older now.

Which one? HOM?

gaunt jetty

'...The other one...He is...Getting the feeling of observation.'
pastel vale
#

Chary nods, looking at the familiar image.
Can you tell me where he lived?

pastel vale
#

What do you mean?

fervent rivet
#

Mouse looks at the picture, somewhat worried.

Twigs blinks. “Huh, he looks like an adult!”

pastel vale
fluid mauve
#

I trust you, so his door is open to you.

pastel vale
#

Thanks.
Chary walks away

#

I feel like I vaugely recognize that name...

pastel vale
fervent rivet
#

(Lmao it’s navy Pearl!)

#

Twigs looks at Chary. “So what now?”

pastel vale
#

We head to his house. He might seem like an adult, but he was pretty young last time I saw him.

#

Chary heads to his haus

fluid mauve
#

The door scans you face and opens

fervent rivet
#

Twigs holds the teal overseer as Mouse follows.

pastel vale
#

Chary steps into the room

#

ATV, do you recognize any of this?

fluid mauve
pastel vale
#

(so it's the same as NP?)

fluid mauve
pastel vale
#

This appears to be the same as Navy Pearl...

fluid mauve
pastel vale
#

Chary heads further in, looking for any differences

fervent rivet
#

Twigs looks around. “Yeah! I recognize it kinda too!”

gaunt jetty

There is some faint whimpering in the room.
fluid mauve
pastel vale
#

Chary goes to the room and slowly opens the door

#

Hello?

gaunt jetty
#
It is gone...But it left a red symbol as well...But with golden, as if it was burning between both colors.
pastel vale
#

What the?

fervent rivet
#

Twigs nears the symbol. “huh?”

pastel vale
#

Charybdis whispers
Pluvia?

gaunt jetty
#
Seems like it is ghosting some of his memories about this place.

''I...Why do i feel like i am...Into another entrapment? ...Where is the others? I'm afraid...Why have the ones i used to know been taken away? ...Help...I...Am not feeling good about this...Someone is making fun of us..''

Twigs looks at the symbol, trying to hear it.

pastel vale
gaunt jetty
#

(Supposed to be the whispers i just fucked up.)

pastel vale
#

(ah)

pastel vale
#

We can help you- it's safe here.

gaunt jetty
#
Sounds like it is still there, but hiding...It is fearful in tone.

...You all again...Are you following me?..

pastel vale
#

No? We are just here, trying to find some friends.

#

The Assistant gets down and looks at the symbol

fervent rivet
#

Twigs looks at Assistant. “What does it mean?”

pastel vale
#

The Assistant looks at Twigs, then Mouse.
'Friend' 'Here' 'Scared'

fervent rivet
#

Twigs widens her eyes. “Really?”

pastel vale
#

I think this symbol- is a remnant of somebody me and Assistant knew.

gaunt jetty
#

...I...

Shivering.

Can't trust any of you...

All i know from you all is just...Bad..

pastel vale
#

Who are you?
Did you know UNT?

fervent rivet
#

Twigs looks at the stranger. “We’re not bad!”

gaunt jetty
#

...How do you know?

Wait...No...

...You all are going to do that again...

I don't need to wait to know...

Sounds somewhat sad.

I...Don't know what is happening at full...

But is no good...You Ancients just...Caused wreckage to everyone...

I didn't see everything...But i lived long enough it wasn't worth trying to reach...

Why i was dormant?

...Ugh..

pastel vale
#

The ones that did the damage died tens of thousands of years ago- they are all gone.

#

Chary looks at Twigs
I don't think we can help them.

fervent rivet
#

Twigs sighs. “…I don’t think the bad adults came back except for the rioters at Pages District..”

gaunt jetty
#

...They just came back...

Coughing.

...Don't lie to me...

Its just...Question of time...

Until they start over...

I...Was beaten up before hiding here...

I am not a fool to know...

Something is wrong..

fervent rivet
#

Twigs started thinking, before taking a look at Chary. “…why were we brought back to life?”

pastel vale
#

Yeah, there's a lot wrong here.
The cycles were ended.

fluid mauve
#

Seems they're delusional, don't they know that the void fluid is gone and that they can die of old age now?

pastel vale
#

Are you somebody made from void fluid maybe?

gaunt jetty
#
'I see...Now i get it.'

......Yes..

pastel vale
fervent rivet
#

Twigs looks at the overseer, before looking back. “…were we even meant to be alive again?”

pastel vale
#

Chary stays silent.

gaunt jetty
#
'...You are the delusional one here.'
fluid mauve
#

Explain then, hot shot.

pastel vale
#

Shut up, I'm trying to listen to the whisper.

pastel vale
#

I know somebody that can help.

gaunt jetty
#
'...Very funny for who's watching us.'

...Who...Who are you all?...I just know the Assistant...But why is him with you?

fervent rivet
#

I think Twigs might be about to have a mental breakdown//

pastel vale
#

It's me, Charybdis. I somehow, became myself

#

HOM is gone.

fervent rivet
#

Twigs raises her hand, still deep in thought about this. “..I’m.. Eleven Twigs.”

Mouse raises her hand. “Mouse is Mouse.”

I didn't presence it myself...

See...We're just here...Why would it be?

Unless...

Shakes head, then the symbol in the ground becomes full red again.

N-no..

fervent rivet

Mouse raises her head. “Symbol went red!”

(MY BREAK WAS LIKE SEVERAL WEEKS AGO AND ALL I HAD WAS A MONDAY AND FRIDAY AND I WAS Forced TO DO WORK SND IT WASNT ACTUALLY A BREAK)

pastel vale
#

The Assistant jumps up next to Kurtis

gaunt jetty
#
He tries to push you off...He whimpers.

...Stop...I...I feel like i lost something important...Why does that hurt..

pastel vale
#

The fluid- the void fluid is gone. You're made from it, right? The stuff that made you has disappeared.

#

I need you to calm down and breathe.

#

(~meanwhile, somebody wakes up over at Navy Pearl~)

#

Kurtis, can you stay here, in a physical state, without disappearing into the symbol?

gaunt jetty
#
...He is shaking and feeling cold...All he does is whimper after he stop struggling...The symbol come back to have its burning golden scrapped color.
'...He is in shock...I'm at outside of this location, just waiting.'
pastel vale
#

Can you help him?

gaunt jetty
#
'...Not sure yet...But be very careful, probably can be provoked very easily at this state...And be wary of that other person in your mind.'
pastel vale

Kurtis, can you walk with me for a moment?

Chary grabs Kurtis's hand and brings him outside

Mouse looks at Twigs. “Child okay?”

Twigs looks at Mouse, holding the overseer. “…I’m.. not sure.”

Twigs looks at the Assistant. “Oh! Hello, little guy.”

The Assistant does some moral support stuff (idk maybe being cute)

gaunt jetty
#
He doesn't seem to resist, just whimpering.

Someone is waiting outside...Seems like a cat-like figure...Somewhat robotical...He waves and speak, it is the same voice that was in your head.

Twigs smiles a little.

Ello there.

Twigs looks at Birsha. “I’m just.. saying hi to the creature.”

jolly goblet

What creature? Birsha tilts his head oh hello there

gaunt jetty

Oddly enough, he has the same symbol that Kurtis have behind him...But is wavering between many colors.

...Hello..

Kurtis: Looks at him, confused.

...Umm...Hi...Who...

?: Smiling.

...Shh...I'm 'S.A.S'..

Twigs blinks. “What’s a S.A.S?”

Waving with a smile.

The Assistant comes out and looks at SAS

Twigs blinks. “Oh, so you’re like an Iterator?”

gaunt jetty

S.A.S: ...I would wish to not speak about this, as it doesn't came for matter...

But i do investigate otherworldly abnormalities.

pastel vale
#

Aaaand this whole planet is an anomaly?

jolly goblet
pastel vale
#

I'm gonna make a guess based off what you've said and say that Kurtis is the anomaly- yes?

Twigs looks at Chary, lifting her mask a little. “What does anomaly mean?”

pastel vale
#

"Not normal."

jolly goblet
gaunt jetty
#

S.A.S: Chuckling.

...For a abnormality, Kurtis is stable...

But not what is happening here...

I feel like someone forced their way through him either, and this is affecting him negatively.

Kurtis: Looks away.

pastel vale
#

Somebody did something and they removed something that was affecting the world and reversed a lot of damage. However, that something was also keeping a lot of people together.

#

I think ATV could probably explain it better.

fluid mauve
#

Uuuhhhh, wait you can hear me?

pastel vale
#

Me or him? Because the answer is yes.

gaunt jetty

S.A.S: ...I can.

Kurtis: ...Who...Are you talking to?

“Are we anomalies too?” Twigs shows concern.

Mouse immediately starts running that way to attack whoever is attacking the car.

Chary picks up Kurtis and starts sprinting towards the entrance

The overseer is shocked, simply going back to the APC.

Suddenly, the APC explodes as a massive explosion splits it in half. The front half goes into a nearby stream with Suns, Brisha, and Mouse. The back half is flung upside down into the forest with Chary, Kurtis and Twigs

smoke fills the forest as a fire starts and more gunfire occurs

HOLY FU

Twigs lands harshly on the ground, gaining several bruises.

Mouse directly falls into the water.

Twigs tilts her head, not sure what Chary’s thinking about.

#

Chary noms her hotdog and heads for a nearby gear shop

Twigs is just following now.

And guess what? Mouse has somehow found money and is trying to ask a food stand what to use it for.

Chary suddenly arquires currency and buys a new jacket and a arm tablet

#

(something like these)

#

Chary goes up to Olly
Alright, if we can get ahold of Mouse then we should be able to head back to Pages. Sound good?

fervent rivet
#

Olly nods, deciding to be patient like their Iterator.

#

Where are we going again.

pastel vale
#

Pages.

fluid mauve
#

Ah, right.

#

The Assistant goes up to Mouse and points at Chary

#

Mouse nods, waving goodbye to the scavs and going over to Chary.

pastel vale
#

Okay, I have the keyes to the jeep, so we just need to get them.

#

Chary pulls out the map and points to a location where the jeep is

Chary and the Assistant head to the garage

Birsha appear behind Chary, accidentally scaring them

WHA-

fervent rivet
#

Mouse and Twigs look at Birsha, somewhat unamused.

jolly goblet
#

What's wrong?

pastel vale
#

You appearing out of nowhere.

Twigs gave a small chuckle. “Heh, I think you scared Chary.”

Birsha follows Twigs behind

Chary opens the garage and enters the jeep, the Assistant crawls onto the gear shifter

Twigs climbs into a seat. She pulls Mouse in. The overseer lays down.

“Oh, hang on!” She pulls Birsha into the seat as well.

Eventually, Twigs falls asleep in the Jeep. She has eaten the food that she and Chary got earlier and now she’s tired.

pastel vale
#

Chary continues driving through the rest of the day and night to get to Pages

fervent rivet
#

After some time, Twigs doesn’t look well. She’s still asleep, but she looks somewhat disturbed.

pastel vale
#

So, exactly what are the extent of your powers?

fluid mauve
#

Powers? Well its very limited, I can only make orders for stuff and thats it.

pastel vale
#

Really?

Kurtis start to manifest with S.A.S in the Jeep, both like as if they was leaving a transparent state...S.A.S body seem to be damaged, and both are asleep.

Yup.

Kurtis: Sigh...Then looks away.

...Sorry...S.A.S was glitched up when i left that place we went...I'm not with my gear either.

pastel vale
#

Glitch- Chary sighs
Alright. I'm glad you're fine. We're almost to Pages, we should be there right at dawn.

fervent rivet
#

Twigs suddenly just awakens, gasping for air, her eyes widened in some kind of horror.

gaunt jetty
pastel vale
#

The Assistant suddenly jerks to the side

#

Whoa-
What happened?

fervent rivet
#

Twigs looks down, seemingly terrified. “…I… I was there again.. I just saw a whole sea of echoes…”

fluid mauve
#

Tell the poor kid the void sea aint there no more...

pastel vale
#

The Assistant crawls back to her

fervent rivet
#

Twigs gave a shaky nod of her head. “..I don’t want to die again, Chary… I don’t wanna be an echo again..”

jolly goblet

The sea is gone now. You won't be one again

Kurtis: His expression soften a bit when he sees Twigs...Despite his hear of the Ancients, he is risking to empathize.

...Ey...

He tries to reach a hand.

You're fine...Don't worry about it..

fervent rivet
#

The ancient sniffles a little, looking at all of them. “..a-are you sure?”

pastel vale
#

Very.

gaunt jetty
#

Kurtis: He pets Twigs head a bit.

...Yeah...You will be okay..

fervent rivet
#

Twigs wipes a small tear. “O-okay..”

The overseer rests near Twigs, not really sure how to help comfort her. Pages was better at comforting someone in person than when using an overseer.

gaunt jetty

(Voices on Chair head.)

pastel vale
#

I'll get us moving again, we'll be at Pages soon.

jolly goblet
#

How soon?

Kurtis: He looks at Chary...Then shakes his head, approaching to whisper to her.

...It might be still here...But...This is a child, right?

Yes.

Chary starts the car and it begins driving through the forest again

Twigs is staying awake. She doesn’t wanna go back to sleep.

Kurtis: He looks back at Twigs...Then approaches them, hugging and petting during the way.

pastel vale

As the sun rises Page's district walls become visible through the forest

fervent rivet
#

Twigs looks at Kurtis. “You’re.. a really nice Slugcat.”

fluid mauve
#

The car runs low on gas

fervent rivet
#

It has become apparent that some work was done at the District. A lot of overseers are busy making sure the wall looks nicer and.. well, less-abandoned. Olly is excited to be here.

Birsha looks outside the window, He doesn't look amused but rather a bit sadden by something

Mouse looks at Birsha. “You ok?”

“Ok,” Mouse replies.

The trees rustle...rustle...rustle...

Seems windy.
Man, is this vest comfy.
Chary turns off the engine and pockets the keys and her SMG before hopping out.

Twigs jumps out, looking at Olly. Olly seems weirdly excited to show the group the District.

"Uuaahhgg... UAAAHHH!"

pastel vale

Chary just kinda collapses

fervent rivet
#

Twigs widens her eyes. “W- hey!!”

Olly’s eye widens, before it glares at whoever is trying to take them.

Mouse attempts to communicate with the scavs, signing ‘STOP! STOP THIS!’.

jolly goblet

(wtf, mouse do you thing. calm them down)

fluid mauve

They notice mouse and take them away in restraints

"GRAAAH! WRAAAHH!"

The Assistant freaks out and hides on top of the pedals of the jeep

fluid mauve

The car is out of gas

Mouse attempts to break free.

Twigs kicks a scavenger in the ouch.

Chary gets up and sprints to the nearest Scav

Electric shock

Birsha stays in the jeep, Don't know what to do

I don't know.
Where's Mouse?

Twigs looks at Chary and Olly.

Chary gets up
Wait here, trust me, I know where I can get some things.

Chary sprints out of sight
When it's convenient... like a convienience store?

S.A.S: His holographical eyes are a bit glitched.
