I guess I got on the ferry. I don't remember doing that, though.
[ concerning! ] But, it was a tiny island. Just a box we were supposed to put our hands in. By the time any of us came to, the ferry was gone, so it was the box or lava.
It took us to a spaceship. We were asked to participate in some 'team building exercises' - decision making 'games', mostly, with bloody consequences. We were asked to solve an unsolvable riddle, and after, were asked to figure out which Lin Jingheng of two Lin Jinghengs was the real one and kill the spare. Then, Ryo and Akira were asked to make a decision of their own - it's more personal, so I won't go into the details.
[ aw kuranosuke. he smiles a little at that, thankful. ]
...I think I'm okay, honestly. I got off luckier than everyone else - and to be honest, it was probably a good thing that I was the one who went. We spent most of the experience in space, so Lin and I had a little bit of an advantage.
Yeah. Honestly, I think it was supposed to be a little scarier at the beginning, but, for the two of us, it just felt like home. The technology on the ship was pretty archaic, comparatively, but it was so familiar that I was able to squeeze more information out of it than I think I was supposed to.
[ lu bixing finally got to hack a computer. kind of.
he smiles a little at the last part, though - tired, but genuine. ] ...Yeah. I think Akira will need a little support, too, even if he's not hurt. He's young.
The phones we use here must feel pretty archaic to you too, then...? What kind of info did you manage to get out of it, anything good?
[if spaceship tech is archaic... wao]
...yeah, he seemed really out of it. And it seems like he's had a rough time in general, so - don't worry. I've got his back, and it seems like he's made some pretty good friends here already, so I'm sure I'm not the only one.
Only for the puzzle we were solving. It wasn't really useful, otherwise.
[ i used my ic brain and solved an unsolvable puzzle and cucked us all out of injuries except francy. tragedy. hateful. foul.
anyway - kuranosuke gets a smile for the second part, thankful. ] I'm glad to hear that. I know he's close with Gideon, and I'm sure that you all will be able to support him back on his feet.
[i'm sad for you and your lack of injuries but kuranosuke is relieved tbh]
Yeah, that's the hope! But that goes for all of you, too. There's a bunch of us, so it'd be pretty fucked up if we didn't help all of you guys if you needed it.

None of you look like you got submerged in lava, so - I'm guessing you all put your hands in the box?

And after that, it ended, and we returned here.

[what the hell... kuranosuke looks a little disturbed.]
Was it, just... like, the four of you there? Other than the, like... fake Lin Jingheng...

[could have been worse, kuranosuke supposes - they could have been yeeted to, like, some medieval fantasy setting they were wholly unfamiliar with.]
I'm glad you came back mostly unscathed. We'll make sure the others are okay, too.
