The Second Trial [text + video]

[When she awakens, it's to a very unpleasant yet equally forcibly pleasant morning -- which is actually more like in the afternoon.]

[And now she hits the video function where she takes a wave; she was sitting on top of a building. For a while she accidentally has it upside down.]

I wanted to also ask if anyone else has been experiencing "seeing" any weird things. Something like places or objects that are not supposed to be there?

One of them had a message written in blood, another some place from their kingdom, one a hometown, and for me it was the location of a friend's place.

So far evidence has pointed to only suggest that places from people's homeworlds were taken and placed here.

…well. That's a little concerning. Those… all sound like they're new, too, I think I'd remember those. I wonder…

Maybe it's not just us they want, then.

[terezi_pyrope]

Do you think it's possible they want sovereignty over the places we're from too?

It sounds like that's a thing that may be a possibility.

[video]

[desertdaggers]

Yeah. I'm not sure how they'd do that, but if they brought it all here… all the countries, and different elements… Maybe that'd cause enough confusion that they could rise to the top.

I know for three of us technically it wouldn't matter if they were using that method, unless they are able to bring back destroyed wastelands into a flourishing world again!

[pause. waaaaaaaait a minute.]

Hey, Hawk. Did you hear anything odd? Like a machine that sounds a bit close to broken, but not quite?

[video]

[desertdaggers]

Maybe… I think Caligin mentioned something to that effect, back when… [his eyebrows draw together and he frowns, thinking.]

[He lifts his head, expression lifting a little, and concentrates on listening, putting on hand up to his ear after a few moments to try and get a better fix on it, taking a few steps to see if it gets any louder or softer.]

…yeah. That's a little worrying… can you tell if it's coming from somewhere in particular?

[video]

[terezi_pyrope]

Calign? Who's that and when was this?

[terezi takes a moment to listen herself.]

...It sounds like it may be from a distance out of the town.

The mayor. That was… back before things ended for the first time, when the Doctor and Sophie were supposed to marry. [He frowns for a few moments, thinking it over, and nods.]

That's going to be hard to reach. Really, if things are going to keep on like this…
