voidtreckernet | Day Twenty One: Engine Room to All Carriages

Cool.

[And her first question is-]

Is there a legitimate reason I can't buy back any of my main pokemon team when they'd be kept primarily within their monsterballs while on the train? It would make the missions far easier if I had access to them at the very least.

[Enna's in her own room, and it... takes a while for her to catch on to who's sending this message. But as soon as she does, there's only one thing she has to ask right away:]

What's your name? Or, what name do you want us to call you. We talk to you a lot but 'Voidtrecker Express' doesn't feel like a name, unless it is your name after all?

So like...We actually came from th' places we remember, righ', we're not uh...act'lly from some other void place an' r'memberin' fake lives yeah?

Cause that uh...that'd suck...

[ Now...that's an interesting announcement. Seto's head is spinning, but one thing immediately pops to mind. But how to phrase it...]

Did we volunteer for this mission?

[There are things to ask, probably more important things, but the first thing out of her mouth feels very selfish. Maybe less so after what she learned at the meeting, but still--very centric to herself]

Is my mom okay--I mean my world, is my world okay? I mean, if you know. You brought us here so you must know. I--It's really hard not to phrase things as questions.

[...Okay, that was new.]

Is it true that time isn't passing in our home worlds while we're here?

Edited (meh i'm stupid) 2020-12-12 06:18 (UTC)

...Very well, then.

[Oh, really? So she'll have to think quickly.]

One: What is your criterion for choosing our missions?

Two: What is responsible for the prophetic messages which occur before each mission and how do they work?

Three: What is the nature and intent of the entities which devoured the planet we encountered during the failed mission in Egret?

If this is too much, prioritize the third question.

[Huh. That's new. Masumi wastes no time on her first question, having been wondering for a while.]

Do the people who leave at the platform stops actually return to their worlds?

Edited 2020-12-12 06:24 (UTC)

[He had so many questions, honestly. But there's some that are more important than others, and one thing that's been eating him alive, so-]

What happens to people when they leave the train? Where do they go?

[ Mami's question comes after a moment of thought. ]

If someone here doesn't have a future in their home world...what happens to them?

Edited 2020-12-12 06:27 (UTC)

[Well this is a surprise isn't it? Senku has a couple of burning questions, but he's smart enough to ask them one at a time.]

How is it that people can be resurrected if they die on a mission?

[She was practicing with her ink and only just noticed the message pop up. As soon as she realizes what it is she is on the ICP like a bullet. As always, her questions are direct and to the point.]

Why are we here?

What is your connection, if any, to "the legendary Voidtrecker Express" referenced by the message in the report of a rogue Voidcraft we received some months ago?

How does the conduct of this train differ from that of officially licensed Voidcraft?

What was your intent in bringing us and our predecessors abroad?

[It seems that some of his questions have already been asked, so rather than waste one, Lea thinks a moment before asking.]

If someone was taken from their world to another world, then from that world to the train platform, if they leave the train, do they go back to the world they were brought here from or to their original home world?

Edited 2020-12-12 07:22 (UTC)

Yes. This voidcraft does not yet have capacity for large creatures.

The designation Voidtrecker Express is correct.

Yes. Fear not passenger Jonouchi Katsuya. Your memories are true.

That's a mouthful... Vee. V from Voidtrecker and E from Express and then you hold it out longer, so. Vee.

[Enna wants to ask if that's okay, but that would count as a question. And she can't waste her questions- All of them important.]

Vee...

Are you happy? Being our ship, carrying us around from world to world. Is this what you wanna do, or... I mean, caww...

Are you happy with the situation with us as it stands now, I guess, is the question.

No. You did not actively volunteer.

When all this is over, or...I suppose, when we find a way to handle the thing everyone was talking about- that thing that caused the failed mission- will we be able to choose if we stay?

[The woes of being pretty sure your world has nothing left for you...]

Your world stands, passenger Persphone. Status of individuals on your world is unknown.

That is false.

[Yet... That implies they will eventually have the capacity for large creatures.] Good to know.

[She can be patient and as much as she wants to know when they'll have room for it-

She can't be selfish.]

We remain alive as long as you're alive and wearing the SCAs on mission helps with that I assume. So, what can you tell us about the nature -not the function- of the tethering?

Well, tha's abou' th' most I really wanted t' know I guess- way I figure, 'f you're runnin' from somethin yerself, it isn' like we c'n ask what it is...probably don' really know much yerself...

[Hopefully someone doesn't have that thinking, and asks about more plot related stuff.]

But, y' did say three questions! So I guess, you alrigh', like, there anythin' you need I guess? [He's a simple guy,]

What? But then-...then--!

[Waver froze up, gripping his cane so tightly that his hand began to ache. If he'd been here for however long...no one had heard from him. Not Reines, not his students, not any of his contacts...Maiya, Ilya, Irisviel--god, they were already low on time. He'd sworn to help them, and if he was trapped here-]

...I never would have volunteered for this. No matter what Second Magic shit is at stake, that's Zelretch's job and not mine. I want to know who or what is responsible for our being here. What person, being, or force brought us to this train?
