Not sure why I hadn't done this earlier...Hmn?It was a busy day in Erin's lab. Well, for Erin, at least. He was fine-tuning a small device that Sydney couldn't determine the function of.
Contacting a friend. He should be able to help me out with this. Aaaand... yep, there we go. A pair of lights blinked on on the device; one green, the other indigo.
Hello, this is Erin Quill, requesting contact from Aaron Blaze. I repeat, this is Erin Quill, requesting contact from Aaron Blaze. Do you copy?A moment passed by.
"Hear ya loud and clear, mate. On my way."
There was a blue flash from the back ceiling of the lab, and then a *thud*.
Sydney turned around. A moderately tall person was standing there, wearing a white t-shirt, a pair of cargo pants, and a red blindfold, carrying a plain quarterstaff.
"'Hoy there, EQ. What seems to be the..." Aaron trailed off.
Sydney blinked. Aaron was right by Erin and the mechanism, and waving his quarterstaff through Erin's body, leaving small trails of static.
"Ye got yourself killed again. I thought we'd talked about this, mate, be more careful with the teleporters. Those things can be dangerous."
This wasn't a teleporter accident, Aaron. Regardless, my death isn't the point; happened a couple years ago. I've been getting along mostly fine. It's only the recent events that point to it being more important than usual that I have the ability to directly interact with the top-siders. Can you-"Already on it."
Aaron tapped his fingers to the side of his head twice. A small set of crystals rose to the surface of his skin. "Alright, Erin needs a new body again. Could ya send over-"
Let them know that mechanical ones won't work here. Not sure why. "...alright. Mates, send over a clone or something, no metal pieces or anything. Erin, do ye have any left over DNA samples from your old body?"
None, sorry. "Very well. Just send over the most convenient one, people. Try to keep it male, though. EQ, body should be here in a couple of days. Be careful not to lose this one. See ya."
Aaron tossed a small scroll up into the air, caught it in a burning hand, and in a flash of blue ashes, disappeared just as he had arrived.
...the hell just happened?!?That was Aaron Blaze. He's over from Chron. Alternate dimension stuff, you understand. That scroll's a Portal Scroll, original designs are from Wraeclast. Overall, point is, I'll have a body that I'll be able to accomplish stuff with soon. I'll send them back a request to make sure that there's a few more on standby for you and some of the others down here, but we need somebody that knows what they're doing to stay down here and maintain the lab, so we can't both be topside at the same time. Sorry. If I die again, you'll get the next turn.
But for now, it's just waiting.
Yes, Masea has been mentioned before; I believe it started with Lemonpie making a secondary entity to match Afer. Ma
gmasea and A
quifer. You can probably just use the search function to find the first mention.
EDIT:
Found it. As I suspected, Masea was Lemonpie's doing.
EDIT2: And yes, this entry means I want Erin Quill re-forumited.
