( 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.

[He only gets one get out of death free card!!]

Mm, pants with pockets! They're a wonderful invention, especially when the pockets are much bigger than you first think.

[He'll join Wen Ning in putting pants on over his pants because that's just the cool thing to do these days, patting his empty pockets once he's done. These bad boys will fit so many memes.]

How is it? Comfortable and warm enough for you?

[They're a fucking mess and I suffer. Wait Aki are they going to have to take like 40 sweaters out of the Notsco. We shouldn't have given Wei Wuxian a shitton of sweaters and I have REGRETS.

But anyway, Wen Ning just nods, giving him a little smile in return.]


I-it is, thank you.

[The pockets might be a little overstuffed, but that's fine, he has somewhere to keep these now.]

This place is strange, but some of the things they've come up with... they're interesting.
givethemhell: (you don't say)

[personal profile] givethemhell 2020-01-15 03:38 am (UTC)(link)
[Yeah now he has 40 light up shrimpmingo sweaters and Wen Ning is getting a share. CONGRATS, NOW YOU'LL NEVER RUN OUT.]

Oh, you haven't even seen the half of it yet! Just wait until we get back out to the void. [IT SOUNDS SO OMINOUS...]

The airport is nice, too! It's snowing there right now.
deadened: (64)

[personal profile] deadened 2020-01-15 03:42 am (UTC)(link)
[Well. Time to move on with their ARMFULS OF SWEATERS, god. I hate this Aki.

Wen Ning looks so dubious at the very concept of 'just wait until we get to the VOID', but as always, he'll follow Wei Wuxian more or less anywhere... so it's fine. This is fine. He's more curious about other things.]


I-I'd like to see that.

[He hasn't felt cold or snow in a long time...]

What's the... 'airport'?
givethemhell: (A PUNK)

[personal profile] givethemhell 2020-01-15 03:45 am (UTC)(link)
[DON'T LOOK AT ME YOU'RE THE ONE WHO REMEMBERED IT.

Anyway he'll just lead Wen Ning out through the maze of Notsco and into T H E V O I D, since they can always just come back if he thinks of anything else he wants to pick up from the store. Please don't follow him into the abyss so casually, Wen Ning.]


It's where the airplanes are! They're like - a carriage, but long enough to fit dozens and dozens of people, and they fly.

[The FUTURE!!]

That's where we'll likely go the next time we set out for another world.

[personal profile] deadened 2020-01-15 04:47 am (UTC)(link)
[Too bad, he will definitely follow Wei Wuxian into the fucking abyss.]

A flying carriage... they can really fly, when they're that large?

[He's a little awestruck by the concept... this place really is kind of amazing, in some ways?

But then they enter T H E V O I D, and Wen Ning stops short, staring around at this-- whatever is going on here. Wei Wuxian really wasn't kidding when he described it, and it's a little hard to make sense of it.

Give him a second, he's just. Absorbing this.]
givethemhell: (a solitary dance)

[personal profile] givethemhell 2020-01-15 04:57 am (UTC)(link)
[WELL HERE THEY GO INTO THE FUCKING ABYSS THEN, I GUESS. Wei Wuxian walks forward with undeserved confidence, right alongside the traintracks.]

They can! Isn't that amazing? It's all part of the "technology" that people of the future have invented. Like boxes that heat up your food in seconds, or balls of light you hang from the roof that sparkle just like stars!

[When they walk alongside a track that winds particularly close to each other, Wei Wuxian will add to Wen Ning's headache by jumping up and landing on... the track winding above them... His clothing and hair isn't even hanging down, gravity is weird in the void. Helpfully, he holds his hands up! Down? Whatever.]

Come on, come up!

i'm glad i have so many chances to use this icon specifically

[personal profile] deadened 2020-01-15 05:27 am (UTC)(link)
It's all so...

[So what? We'll never know, because that's the point where Wei Wuxian just hops up and lands upside fucking down!]

Y-young master Wei--!

[HE'S SO ALARMED for the few moments until he realizes this is fine, that he somehow doesn't seem to actually be upside down....? What? How does this place work?

Wen Ning very hesitantly reaches his hands out, with a little jump, and- yep, there he goes, also upside down and stumbling a bit on the landing, while he looks down (up?) at the space they just left.]
givethemhell: (make you a star)

HE SUFFERS SO MUCH...

[personal profile] givethemhell 2020-01-15 06:04 am (UTC)(link)
[WEN NING IS GOING TO HAVE A HEART ATTACK BEFORE HE CAN EVEN REALLY ENJOY HIS NEW HEART.

Meanwhile Wei Wuxian is just grinning like a fool, as if he isn't causing Wen Ning so much stress just by existing.]


It's fine, it's fine! Walking like this is much more fun. Sometimes you can watch the trains pass by under you!

[personal profile] deadened 2020-01-15 06:18 am (UTC)(link)
I-it's a little disorienting...

[they're UPSIDE DOWN he's not sure he enjoys this... but at least it doesn't feel like they are? In a way, though, that also doesn't help.]

What if the trains use this path-- do you have much warning?
givethemhell: (reborn)

[personal profile] givethemhell 2020-01-15 06:41 am (UTC)(link)
Enough warning to jump to the track below, yes!

[And if there are two trains coming at the same time WELL THEN... Guess they die.]

If you throw yourself off far enough, you could probably just fly through the empty space until you hit another track, too.
deadened: (42)

[personal profile] deadened 2020-01-15 06:56 am (UTC)(link)
I think it's best not to risk that... y-you might not find another one.

[Like, he is not going to trust that they wouldn't just float through the void indefinitely because they just aren't near any other tracks, the void has not earned that from him.]
givethemhell: (watson)

[personal profile] givethemhell 2020-01-15 02:18 pm (UTC)(link)
I could test it out! I'm sure it would be fine.

[He can just fly himself back to a track with a thousand papermen, he's the perfect intrepid explorer.

Also, looming up ahead is the AIRPORT.]
