It feels like that sometimes. Or like they're trying to fill a collection

So like an AI powered by magic?

[deal_me_in]

not sure i like that much better

sort of? not something we ever figured out

[seeingscarlet]

I don't like any of it

And all of this just makes it worse. I think I would rather have dealt with the Storm again

[deal_me_in]

ive only heard stuff about the storm so far

missed the first one

how bad was it?

[seeingscarlet]

As a storm, it was bad but not terrible. But it wasn't just about the weather

It took our powers and anything else that made us 'more'

And there were people in the storm, people that we know, but I don't think they could hear us. I don't know what it was. I couldn't feel anyone anyway so I don't know how 'here' they were

[deal_me_in]

so ive heard

hadda go through that once back home no thanks

so like a mirage or something? what kinda funky storms these guys expect us to fix?

[seeingscarlet]

I don't know if being forced into everyone else's minds is much better.

These storms destroyed everything before we came here. I think some of the people we saw were here, but not here-here. Caught in the storm? It is not a 'natural' disaster

If they have the technology to bring us here, I think they must have been playing with something much worse before this happened

[deal_me_in]

true that
not sure i wanna know what the point of that part is

here but not... this sounds like a philosophical question but im pretty sure youre not waxing warlock
kind of like a bad reception maybe?

theres a lot of stuff they havent thought to fill us in on
kind of too convenient

[seeingscarlet]

[Well, her username does say scarletwitch...but no, Wanda's not the kind of person who talks just to hear herself talk.]

Something like that? I'm afraid that they're caught between home and here, either because of what happened to cause the storm or the machine the Agrii used to bring us here

They don't know what happens to the people they lose

Maybe that is why we are here. If this storm is stronger then maybe we would have been trapped too. But these are things that they should tell us

[deal_me_in]

well thats great

lots to think about

they couldve at least read the instruction manual first

[seeingscarlet]

When have people ever discovered something powerful and decided to leave it alone?

[deal_me_in]

fair point

[seeingscarlet]

I understand how they feel, and maybe it wasn't their fault at all. They could have been attacked

[Because when have people ever discovered something powerful and not immediately tried to weaponize it?

But anyway, it's not like the common Agrii was responsible for the actions of one mad scientist.]

But this? This isn't helping anyone

[deal_me_in]

yes lets focus on this

if...were talking the same this that is

there was a welcome sign for it and everything whats with this calibrations and how does that all fit into fixing all the stuff

[seeingscarlet]

I don't know. This has happened to me before this place but no one ever understood why

I thought it wouldn't be possible without the ship

She was alive. Part of her was alive. It's complicated. But I haven't sensed anything like her here

[deal_me_in]

whoawhoa wait QUESTIONS

ship? she??? where did the she come in?? or the ship for that matter

[seeingscarlet]

This isn't the first time I've been kidnapped like this. It was the same place the ships in the hangar came from, but the lead ship, the Marsiva, isn't here

That was the only place Calibrations happened. I had thought it happened there because we needed to be closer to the heart of the ship but maybe the people who kidnapped us just didn't want us snooping. I don't understand this place

And I don't understand what the Agrii are getting from this unless they think this is fun

[deal_me_in]

so who kidnapped you the first time?
did you ever find out what the deal was with the calibrations then?

why would something specifically of the same name be used here?

im getting trap vibes
are u getting trap vibes
actually ive had them the moment the damn exit disappeared

[seeingscarlet]

The Atroma. The Agrii talk about them sometimes. They found some of their tech? I think. It is hard to understand them sometimes

We never found out why the Atroma did it, just that it happened several times. Only once for me, but my husband was there long enough for it to happen twice

I think not having an exit is the definition of a trap, yes? We can't leave until they let us

[deal_me_in]

oh boy

yeah thats not reassuring

i was actually hoping youd say no but points for honesty

[seeingscarlet]

There is no point in trying to pretend that this is different than it is. At least we can be prepared

I don't think that we are in danger, but I also don't think we are leaving until the Agrii decide we can

[deal_me_in]

if the agrii are really who they say the are

[seeingscarlet]

I know they're not the Atroma but that is all

[deal_me_in]

whatd the atroma look like
did they at least make sense

[seeingscarlet]

The Hosts were half human and half machine. Or they looked half human. And the thing that had taken over hurt to look at

It is hard to explain. It wasn't just physical hurt. It looked like a glitch in reality

[He can't see it but Wanda shudders at the memory. Yikes.]

It wasn't difficult to understand them but how would you feel if you were told that you've been kidnapped for a space game show?
