( WELCOME BACK, TRAVELERS. )



There's nothing but the clatter of train tracks, and the odd feeling of almost floating.

When you wake, it's hard to tell exactly what it is that you're missing - only that you are. There are pieces that aren't quite right, even if you're not sure where those pieces would normally be. Pieces of what, exactly....? Well, if you had to put a word to it, it would be - yourself, probably. Or did you get something back recently?

The place you've found yourself in is strange, certainly. It's probably worth exploring a bit. Though it just as easily seems that the only form of welcome or explanation that you have, comes from nothing more than a slab of marble. It might've changed since the last time you saw it.

You might have changed since the last time you saw yourself too - perhaps with a new emblem on your clothes, or a portrait on your skin.

There's no need to fret that much though. You've already gone through the ordeal once, and you might be able to see results from it. Even so, it's best that you don't get too comfortable, because there is still the unshakeable feeling:

There's still much more ahead of you.

I should be able to...

[Just give him a second to get to his feet without tripping over them, it's fine he's fine he's got this. Probably.]

But I really don't think that-- that anything is going to work on them.

[There's a slight possibility that's changed, seeing as he's somewhere different and also living, but if the strange tool he'd already tried using didn't work... Wen Ning's not holding out too much hope.]

We don't know until we try, right? C'mon, I have really high hopes on this one, even more than the bolt cutters!

[ But he does take the bolt cutters with him, because he'll need it. Once he sees Wen Ning's on his feet, Kano leads the way out of the store and over towards the train tracks— his high hopes are that Wen Ning's never seen a train in his life, and therefore has never tried this before: he lays the chain across the tracks while positioning Wen Ning's cuffs right up against the track as close as he can get without the danger of him losing fingers. ]

And now, we wait for a train to come by and smash 'em to bits~!

[WELL. Wen Ning doesn't know what a train is, or what train tracks are, so he allows this to happen? He has no idea why Kano is positioning them over this... metal construction...]

Wait for a-- a what?

[A train, which helpfully shows up as he asks that!

And, as a ye olde who has never seen a metal machine this size and has no idea what the living fuck is barreling their way... Wen Ning lets out a startled little yelp and just runs, scrambling to get away from the tracks before it arrives.

...this ends in him stumbling over the chains in his panic and falling flat on the ground several steps away, but he tried.]

[ If they let this opportunity go, they'll have to somehow run fast enough to cut the train off and who knows where it's stopping next, so it's time to move fast.

Before the train gets the chance to pass, Kano grabs the other end of the chains and tries to pull them back over to the other side of the tracks so they're laying across them again. ]


Don't move, okay! Just lie right there! Or— your hair- well. It's okay, it's okay, stay right there!

[ He is going to hope Wen Ning's hair doesn't get caught up in the train wheels, and also that he doesn't get up and try to run again, because that would mean pulling Kano along right over the tracks while the train comes barreling along. ]

[HE DEFINITELY WANTS TO RUN, but he's not as strong as he was before arriving here and not confident in his ability to just yank Kano back over to this side of the tracks... and risking getting this kid hit by that thing is absolutely not an option.

So as terrifying as this all is, he... holds still, shaking a little...

and while real-life physics, according to science google, suggest this might risk derailing the train-- apparently putting objects on the tracks can also result in those objects just being nyoomed right off the tracks like a bullet? Thankfully the train cannot be derailed, so option b it is.

The train hits them at high speed, and rather than the chains breaking... off they go.

Along with Wen Ning who is still very much attached to them.

I can't believe this is where their very first thread is going I'm weeping laughing in the bg card]

[ TERRIBLE

ABSOLUTELY TERRIBLE

Unfortunately, Kano isn't attached to these chains like Wen Ning is cuffed, and he's got like a newborn baby's grip strength so after he lifts up into the air a couple meters, his hands slip and he crashes back to earth while Wen Ning blasts off into the sky. I can't believe Wen Ning is fucking dead. Kano will shed one single tear and salute him while staring up at the sky watching him go. ]
