[Since Allen came out of the luggage carried he had a good number of questions some of which have at least been answered by looking around. Knowing certain truths that he is willing to keep to himself and pretend that everything is awesome while in reality, he wasn't doing so great because of it.

But for the time being, he decided to at least play the game of catch up for other things.]

So... I don't know how long I've been gone for so... Is there anyone who is okay with telling me what has been going on? I assume I missed the mission since I see mentions of it, but considering I wasn't here... I don't actually know what is going on.

[He pauses, he wanted to pretend everything was okay on his end even with the lack of knowing what day it was or what was going on, but he figured he would at least ask.]

I do have another question. Not as important, but for those of you who've ever... How do I put it... [Words on this subject were not his area of expertise.] Developed romantic feelings for someone who then leaves. How do you manage that?

It's not that. Just use to nicknames being more insults. So a positive one is just odd to me.

[But he chuckles he is not at all surprised because how can he be. But he honestly didn't know what any of the sports movie were or why they were good. But then again Allen barely went to this carriage.]

Okay, I will try and find a good one. Not that I know what would be good.

I'll be looking forward to seeing your pick! Be there in a minute or five!

[ And now Tidus will leave so he can actually start getting there. What's time on the train? A mystery, that's what, but Tidus eventually makes his way inside through the door closest by the screen, popping out his earbuds, but searching out for if Allen would still be by the ICP console or sitting.

Either way- ] 'Sup! Got any interesting answers yet? Heard you talking, but I was listening to some tunes.

Not sure if you might like what I pick because I know nothing about sports.

[So for all he knows it could be the worst thing ever and he didn't want that, but hey he has to learn. But due to his uncertainty, he stills deemed to be looking through what was there even after the other arrived. Changing his mind now and again. But within a moment he glances over.]

On my questions? Not exactly yet. I mean I don't mind if I do, that's fine.

You got a sports movie? Nice!

[ Hey, went for the recommendation, pal!! Nice nice. Tidus rests against the side of a chair close to Allen, keeping standing while he continues to flick through the selection. ]

Well, I can tell you about the mission first. Something there was making illusions, like some kinda...guy? [ Very helpful. ] I mean, that was at the end of the mission, but before that we were in a city, and they were having them too. You remember that space station, with the big tree computer and the fake animals attacking people? The illusions were like those. First they were in the computers inside the city, and then they -- weren't. They were outside the city.

[ He says, shaking his head. ] None of us had a good way of dealing with breaking the illusions. I mean, not totally. And the illusions were showing us some pretty personal stuff, so a lot of people got shaken after everything.

[ Not a good time at all. ]

I remember people mention illusions.

[But that was pretty much the extent of it. But this seemed like there was a lot more to it. Was he okay that he missed it. A combo of yes and no. Yes because Allen has a lot of potentially dangerous and personal stuff he still wouldn't be happy to have people see. Sure it happens to him a lot, but he was still taking that slowly. But no because he still felt like he could have helped, but instead he had to go somewhere else instead to help.]

But it sounds pretty bad. Makes sense for everyone to be the way they are. Really need all the relaxation... Wonder what I could do to help. [He was not great at the whole knowing what to do a thing. But he did have one worry.]

But considering the theme of illusions has happened twice now... do you think that will pop up more often?

Mmm, maybe. [ Would they? He brings a hand resting under his chin as he thinks. ] Some people think they're connected to what was happening around Erda too, the city with the demons. If it was... then there's a chance.

I know some stuff that might help, but we'll need somethin' better to really be useful, I think. [ He waves his propped hand. ] But that's if the smart guys on board can figure anything out! And right now's a good time to get some rest.

Why do some people think there was?

[People must have seen something or found something to have that wonder in the first place after all. But either way the way Allen trains would need to change if illusions were potentially going to be more common.]

But agreed, it's a good time for everyone to rest. At least you get some time to do that. [His eyes soon looked over at the screen at what was going on. He.. didn't actually know thew sport but from what he could tell they were throwing a ball around for some reason.]

I will be of help next mission.

[ It's okay, it's just the start of the movie at least. Got to have some warm up intro of cool sport actions shots than anything too significant. Which does have Tidus watching it, but there's nothing to show that anything important is going on yet to have him go quiet.

So: ]

I know you will. Don't worry too much about missing a mission. You can't help it. [ With that said- ] I don't know too much about the whys with Erda. But apparently the illusions in the city... matched the ones up on one of the tiers? The city had different tiers. [ To explain. ] Tier one had illusions, tier two had monsters from people's worlds made by some light orbs... Tier three had a virus in a game, and four had people seeing things in their own head. Or, something like that.

[ But he didn't go to that tier himself, so he wasn't too sure what was going on there. ]

[Allen's eyes were looking between the screen and to the others. At least the boy was good for one thing. Multitasking. Though he is confused when he looks over and he wasn't sure what was going on, but they looked like they were about ready to start a fight or something. Sports movies he didn't understand. Just like he doesn't understand what dunking means.]

I'll try not to. But you can't stop me from feeling bad that I missed it.

[At least he wasn't worried about it.]

Didn't we have something similar to a game in another world too?

[ If getting ready to fight is trying to get the ball from another person and continuously shifting their feet around, that's what's going on now. ]

A game during another world? [ A game, a game... hm. ] You sure I was around then?

[He moved to lean back briefly. He needed to think over what he was actually on about. Game references were still a new thing to him after all.]

You know the world with that... was it a tree? People took on different looks and that just seemed very much like something I've seen in games. I forgot how many missions ago that was though. [He remembered his clothes were at least different during that.]

[ Just as Allen leans back, a guy in the movie is heading for the hoop to make the dunk. But he loses his balance suddenly and nearly falls, and in that instance loses the ball too. Another player's taken it, but a player on the other team, passing it over to another teammate, then another. The music is slow, dramatic--

And they get it into the goal on the other side, all in a slow-mo that shows glimpses of the one who nearly fell's crestfallen expression turning more so. They lost the game -- and it might as well be the end of the world with the way the movie's presenting it.

Tidus is keenly watching it, but apparently has the gift of both movie watching and gassing, as- ]

Oh yeah, that's the one I was talking about. You remember when we got near it, there were those weird lights sometime? Those were around too. When those furry little things started attacking us!

That's what we had to deal with on Purple. And figuring out murder mysteries - but those were the cause, no doubt.

[Allen looked at the screen confused at just what was going on. Seriously people get that upset over something like this. Sports were certainly something.]

I remember that and seems like you had a lot on your plate regardless. Just have to wonder if it means the next world will have a lot more going on or what.

Who knows! But hey, whatever happens, we'll deal with it, huh? Just like we always do. [ But he nods his head to the screen. ] Alll the sports movies on the train are like this. Bet it's gonna go into-- yep, guy lost his spark for sports, got a job.

[ And as he was about to say: it's the character now working a job in a diner. ]

Spoilers: he's gonna get back into basketball.

[ Hah!! They always do! ]

I always try and deal with anything and usually either overexerting myself, hurting myself or maybe both. I haven't done both in a while.

[He is not actually going to try and do it though. He was at least not that dumb anymore. He looked over at the screen a small frown on his face. he didn't get sports movies AT ALL. Why are they like this? Why the drama?]

I mean that seems obvious, but is there a point of seeing some parts of this? Because it feels like it's trying to make the film longer but brings nothing to the table.
