[So here is a goofy-looking kid who is actually quite lost at the moment. He spends a few moments looking around himself, as if he's trying to shake himself of an illusion and go back to his normal reality. Except it doesn't work, he's actually here, this is real life.]

Woooooooow! This is so COOL!

[Clearly he is not fazed by this at all. A grin quickly spreads over his face.]

This is amazing! I'm in the stars! Well I guess I was already in the stars, but this looks even cooler than before! Those explanations don't do this place justice. Though it's a little weird, I can't see the floor at all. Is that normal? I mean, even glass floors give off a reflection of light. Oh well, if it works then it works, right? There's no need to worry too much about it.

So I guess this means there's more weird timey-wimey stuff now, huh? That's fine by me, we can use all the extra time we can get. Plus this place is pretty awesome, I can't wait to check it all out! Man, I feel like an explorer again, like one of those guys from Indiana Jones, except with less archeology and more shenanigans. Oh, what shenanigans there will be.

And hey, I bet we can find Rose and Dave while we're at it too! They didn't get too far away, right Jade?

...Jade? Are you here?

I'm afraid that if you had a companion, she isn't here...

[Says the guy with purple hair and gold armour.]

[foundmyarms.livejournal.com]

[It's cool he's seen lots of weird crap in the last 24 hours.]

Aww man! I was hoping she would come here too, she was right there with me before I did the travel-thingy.

[lamb_of_gold]

She may yet. This place is rather unpredictable.

[foundmyarms.livejournal.com]

I hope she does come here! This place is really awesome, and I bet she'd love it.

[Yeah he's still entranced by all the stars. SO MANY STARS.]

[lamb_of_gold]

[That exuberance is...certainly something.]

Is she as adventerous a soul as you seem to be?

[foundmyarms.livejournal.com]

[And it's undying too, it'll last forever.]

Yeah! When she comes here I bet she'll want to explore this place too. It's what we do.

[lamb_of_gold]

[Kids. John reminds Mu a lot of Kiki, thus he gets a small smile instead of an eyeroll] Then I think you'll find the Astral Plane a worthy challenge.

[A similarly goofy-looking kid is not that far away. Where could they be now? It wasn't long ago that she was steering the ship. Something inside her says that this isn't quite what was supposed to happen, but isn't that just part of the adventure?]

Hey, John! I'm right here!!!

[And see? John's here! Things can't be all that wrong if he's still around. :D

She waves, cheerily heading over.]

It looks like I lost a few things on the way, and we wound up somewhere totally different. But I think we still might be able to find the others here, too.

[foundmyarms.livejournal.com]

[Oh there she is! John was beginning to get worried, he was thinking she might not have made it after all.]

Jade!

[Happy waving is overly happy and then he runs (floats?) over and gives her a big hug.]

Man, you have no idea how happy I am to see you!

[Yeah, they'll look for the other two in a moment, but first HUGS and possibly questions because you sure did become a dog God Tier Jade.]

[spacewich.livejournal.com]

[She squeezes John tight in return.]

It's good to see you're okay! Everything worked out on our side.

[Daww, and she nuzzles him just a little, too, before gently pulling away.]

Almost everything, I mean. I wonder where this is.

[foundmyarms.livejournal.com]

I'm not too sure! I think it might be the next universe, the one after the Scratch, but we can go back and forth between this world and where we were? It's kinda weird.

[Yeah he doesn't quite get it, but hey, they can explore the shit out of this place, right?]

But hey, you have dog ears now! How'd that happen?

[spacewich.livejournal.com]

[Her right ear twitches at being mentioned.]

Oh, right! I'm just like you now! Remember when you said that Jack killed you when you were tricked into sleeping on your quest bed? I got blown up by some cans of shaving cream......... and somehow wound up on my quest bed? I don't really know how that happened, but I woke up as my prototyped dream self!

[Giggling a bit, she poses to show off her god tier outfit and self.]

But anyway, John, I don't think this is the next universe. I have this feeling that something is a little off.

[foundmyarms.livejournal.com]

Oh well that explains the dog ears then. And the cool outfit. And the planet-shrinking.

[He's kind of wondering how she got blown up by shaving cream, though. He knows shaving cream is flammable but who in the world has enough of that stuff to make a bomb?]

It feels off? How can you tell?

[moveslikestrider]

[Dave had been chilling back by the Green Sun and warped onto the plane in time to hear John. Holy fuck, was it? He hasn't ever seen him in person before so this a big deal even if his coolkid attitude didn't react like it was. All that blue there's no way it isn't. That and the unironic love of the Jones.

He slips up behind him, red cloak swirling as he answers him.]

Don't over think it, man. And there's not time rolling through here I'd know, probably Harley's space thing is more like it. Haven't seen her yet thought, sorry.

[foundmyarms.livejournal.com]

[Now while John had been hoping to see Dave soon, he definitely wasn't expecting him to be right there. So he jumps a bit at first, startled to hear Dave's voice, but then he turns to look at Dave properly. Woah that sure is sum God Tier there, Dave definitely didn't have that the last time they spoke. Still, somehow Dave manages to make that outfit look rad, even though the hood looks kinda dorky. He's too overjoyed to chuckle at the outfit yet.]

Dave! Wow, this is going to be the day of reunions, isn't it? I thought it might actually take a while to find you and Rose.

[He's not too worried about Jade, because even if she didn't make it to the plane she's right back where he was before he jumped here so yeah.]

[moveslikestrider]

[Dave adjusts his shades and lets John check out his new Godtier duds before he continues.]

What do you mean a day of reunions? Far as I knew I was the only one putting around up here getting my time thing on. Are you saying you're not alone? Rose is fine dude, she rose up.

[foundmyarms.livejournal.com]

Jade was just with me, she should be here soon.

[Yeah he doesn't quite have this plane-stuff sorted out yet, he doesn't really get all the rules and stuff.]

But I'm glad you and Rose are okay, I was really worried about you two! Karkat seemed sure that at least one of you would die for real and not come back.

[moveslikestrider]

How's she doing by the way? We sorta pulled off the Sun mission but it wasn't exactly right.

And when is Vantas ever straight on the money. Beep, beep, never.

[His hand gestures to all the stars and glowing lights around them.]

So, anyone give you the business about this place yet? Other than the brochures for your one way tourist trip to what the fuck land.

[foundmyarms.livejournal.com]

She's God Tier too! And she has dog ears for some reason, I didn't get a chance to ask why yet. I managed to get the Scratch going, and then she showed up in her giant skyboat and picked me up. Then she shrunk the planets down small enough to carry them and we broke through a giant window-thing. I'm not sure what all of it meant, but I think whatever it was worked?

[Also he has the brochure but he didn't read it yet oops.]

Nah, nobody really explained it much.

[holmes-fanatic.livejournal.com]

"Timey-wimey?"

[Have one immensely sceptical seven-year-old.]

[foundmyarms.livejournal.com]

You know, when there's weird shenanigans involving time travel that you can't really explain.

[This totally makes sense to him ok?]

[holmes-fanatic.livejournal.com]

Time travel's possible in your reality?

[foundmyarms.livejournal.com]

Yep! Though I don't know much about it, I'm not the one who does anything with time.

[That's more Dave's job.]

[holmes-fanatic.livejournal.com]

Ah, that's a shame!

Ne, does that mean you do something else?

[foundmyarms.livejournal.com]

I fight off imps with my awesome hammers.

What about you?
