Good morning passengers. Just a few announcements now that everyone has had a chance to get settled in.

I have a questionnaire I'm asking everyone on board to complete. The goal is to find patterns between our situations in order to determine why we're being taken and brought here. These are confidential, only I will be reading them and I'll not share anything private on them. For those who have already filled these out I've added two questions, so please add these to your original answers- yes, you too Peter!

If anyone sees or hears anything that might give us information about the disappearance of one of our passengers, Gwen, please let me know.

Lastly, yes we have a giant spider living on our train now. She's promised not to hurt anyone and therefore, has our protection as well.

Any other issues or problems that are important let me know. Any issues or problems that are stupid, please bother my intern Peter or use your brain.

[Added Later for Charlotte. Since he doesn't know where she is, this goes out to everyone. The kitchen (for those with heightened senses or nearby) smells sweet and delicious.]

Charlotte, please come to the kitchen. I have something for you.

[ gotta make those classic gaming references!

Huh, it's much easier to talk to people if you just look down at the text and pretend you're playing an online game, come to think of it. Maybe that's why this is going so well? Is this the cheat to socialising? ]

who's gonna stop me from hurting them
j/k
are there any more marshmallows

[He gives her a 'warning' look that just screams 'Dad's not happy' until his lip curls at the end, giving him away. He knew she wasn't being serious here. Or hoped, anyway. She already knew he was willing to engage in a fight if need be.]

Uh, no. But I can make some more? You sure you need more? You should be a squirrel instead of a spider given how fast you hid all those sweets.

[kumoko]

[ Thanks to the Overeating skill, she never gets fat!

Wait.

She doesn't have the Overeating skill any more. Ah, her svelte girlish figure~! She has to protect it! ]

hid spatial magic

[runs_on_batteries]

That's a very handy trick. How much stuff can you put away like that?

[Did the spider look distressed? How does a spider look distressed?]

I'm only asking because I'm curious. If you don't want to tell me, that's fine.

[kumoko]

[ Hmm. ]

if I had to guess
there's no limit?
it's magic, after all!
spatial magic!
the ultimate cheat skill!

[Tony laughs. Guess she wasn't that distressed after all.]

I'll say. It's also good if one of the kids are bothering you. Just toss one of the marshmallows near Peter and he'll immediately get too distracted to bother you. I also believe shaking your car keys work too.

[kumoko]

[ she's a great multitasker - at least 20% of her brain is still screaming over the idea that she can gain weight now. 30% is remembering that Peter is the spider boy and she needs to check in on him ]

I can teleport other people too
make sure you remember that for any strategies
oh yeah
can you give Peter his webs back

[runs_on_batteries]

How does that work? Can you teleport me.. say over there?

[He points to a spot a few feet away from where he was standing. If he was going to use her spell in strategies, he needed to know how it worked and what it felt like.

The part about Peter had him rolling his eyes.]

Fine.

[kumoko]

[ She'd blink if she had eyelids. Then she's in his personal space, and one claw is latched onto his sleeve, and there's a lurch like falling through a doorway and falling up some stairs at the same time, and they're both standing a few feet away. Bam.

She lets go as soon as she can, and scurries back. ]

ta da !

[runs_on_batteries]

[Tony frowns when the spider has to touch him with her claw. However, he forgets all about that when they go through the very disorienting sequence to appear a few feet away. He has to reach out and grab the counter to help steady himself.]

Whoa..

[Well, that was.. at least he now knew how that felt.]

Uh, thanks. That.. felt.. surprisingly similar to going through time.
