You're not wrong! But like I said, they aren't all bad - you just don't know until you try. We got free pasta out of one!

[decaptych]

I dunno if this is the kinda thing you wanna be playing Russian Roulette for!

[ Though the idea of free pasta is incredibly tempting yeah. ]

Which door is that, asking for a friend.

[dms]

No, but how else are we supposed to find out what's behind them?

Hmm, it was somewhere over here...

[ he's in the general vicinity of door 12 at least ]

[decaptych]

Knock knooock.

[ Knocking on a door. ]

Hello? Any funny monsters or anything?

[dms]

Well, there was a big snake there, but it was nice enough.

[ that's not what aikawa means but that's the answer he gets ]

[decaptych]

Hey, as long as that big snake isn't trying to rip my head off, we have a deal.

[ His motif animal is also snakes for some reason so maybe he and Pandora could get along. ]

[dms]

It looked pretty happy that we ate the pasta? So you'd probs get along just fine!

[decaptych]

Hey, I'll keep that in mind. If I can ever find this place, anyway... all of them kinda look the same.

What's this one?

[dms]

Right? You'd think they'd at least try to put little signs on them, like they did with the bedrooms.

[ You open the door and immediately pitch forward and fall through it. There is no floor here. There are no ceilings. There are no walls. You are floating aimlessly in the void with far-off constellations twinkling all around you. You feel as though you are everywhere and nowhere, all at once. Occasionally, you see the space around you shift - the sky ripples or pulls apart, as if the very fabric of the universe is being manipulated. After an indeterminate amount of time, you hear a low chuckle, and suddenly find yourself collapsed on the ground in the hall, disoriented. Only four minutes have passed.

...so that's fun! down they fall as the walls disappear, kazunari flailing his arms in surprise. ]

- Whoa! Is this space?! They can fit space in one of these rooms?!

[decaptych]

Whoa -- whoa! Waugh!

[ He flails a bit, giant starfish in space. Floating upside down, spinning slowly, giant in orbit. ]

It's what?

[dms]

Space!

...It's actually kind of cool? Look at all the stars!

[decaptych]

Oh, the -- the thing someone talked about, I forgot who but someone told me about space back at Wiwaldi...

[ Rapidly trying to spin into a normal position, just kind of turning instead. ]

How are we breathing???

[dms]

...You know, that's a really good question. Isn't it supposed to be a vacuum? But this is awesome! We'd never get to see space like this normally! [ ... ] Hey, isn't that the Summer Triangle?

[ a soft whoa! as he tilts in midair ]

Is this what navigating freefall is like? It's way harder than it looks!

[decaptych]

I have no idea, I've never even thought about space until someone told me about it.

[ Slowly rotating in air, trying to look where Kazu is pointing. ]

Oh -- wait shit, I know that! Where?

[dms]

Really? Not even to just find the constellations at night?

- It's to your left! Left!

[decaptych]

They were always just stars!... I never thought about there being stuff out there.

[ But he turns and look! Wowie. He tries to see if he can touch it, but it feels oddly close yet far away, because when he reaches, he realises it's way out of range. ]

This is a weird room.

[dms]

Haha, valid! It's not like it's something everyone gets to explore, anyway.

Cool, though, right?! The stars look so close! The magic here is wild AF!

[decaptych]

You think this is all magic? What's 'AF'?

[dms]

Maybe! What else would it be?

Oh, and that means "as fuck." It's used for emphasis, you know? Bomb AF, savage AF, lit AF... whatever you want to use it for, pretty much!

[decaptych]

Nothing like magic from my world, but it looks like everyone's got that covered with all your cool stuff.

[ Why does Kazu saying fuck out loud feel so wrong. ]

Huh! Noted, so it's like more texting language.

[dms]

[ because he's assigned baby probably ]

There's magic in your world, too? Man, mine really is the exception, isn't it?

[ lowkey jelly ]

Yeah, exactly! Wow, you caught on way quicker than most people do.

[decaptych]

Uh huh. I mean, it's a place called the Sorcerers' World, yanno? Who ever heard of a sorcerer without magic? It's like a snail without a shell!

[ Gives Kazu Aoyama's belly laser so he Cannot Stop Twinkling. ]

Heh, I learned how to use a phone at the last place I was at! Pretty quick, huh?

[dms]

Ohh, I see, I see! What kind of magic is it?

[ don't do that he would be so obnoxious with it, somehow more than aoyama ]

Hella! There were some people in the prism who couldn't even figure out emojis after being there for a while. Hard to believe, right?!

[ just hanging out in space talking about texting education nbd ]

[decaptych]

All kinds, I guess? Every sorcerer is born with a specific one.

[ But just doing that motion, fist into open palm. Ohhh, light bulb. ]

Ohh, you're from the same place as Marie.

[dms]

Interesting! Does that mean you have magic, too? Are you a sorcerer?

[ nosy bitch ]

Yeah, we used to be roomies! Selkie was in the prism, too, but I didn't get to talk to him as much.
