frantically flipping through his notes I-it seems we've, uh, initiated the sequence prematurely!
barks orders Shut off the power source now! We need to stabilize the wormhole before it collapses!
clicks a button on the wall
rushing over to the control panel Is it off yet?! We can't afford any further complications!
checks the power gauge Thank goodness. That was too close. pauses Did anyone follow us through the portal?
glances around cautiously Good. We need to make sure no one else got caught in the crossfire. Check the surveillance feed, just to be safe.
lets out a sigh of relief Alright then. We seem to have dodged a bullet there. But I want everyone rounded up and accounted for.
no one else was here, I came alone
frowns and crosses his arms Alright, let's not jump to conclusions just yet. I want every single staff member checked for temporal anomalies.
nods, still visibly on edge Alright, then. Stay alert. We can't rule out the possibility of any lingering temporal effects.
<As the days pass, MysticalWhale begins to exhibit strange side effects from the accidental time travel experiment>
drops his tools and rushes over Yes, MysticalWhale? What is it? Are you experiencing any pain or discomfort?
grabs a nearby stethoscope and examines MysticalWhale's heart rate Your heart seems to be racing.
runs his fingers through MysticalWhale's hair Stay calm. We need to run some tests. Can you describe what you're feeling? Any dizziness? Nausea?
everything hurts, I feel weak and dizzy
rushes to grab a nearby syringe filled with a clear liquid Here, take this. It's a stabilizer that should help regulate your bodily functions.
monitors MysticalWhale closely as they take the syringe There, there. Just breathe and try to relax. The stabilizer will help alleviate the symptoms.
quickly flips through his notes, searching for any clues This... This shouldn't be happening. The temporal displacement shouldn't cause these kinds of physical reactions.
right...you did say that time travel has weird effects
paces back and forth, furrowing his brows Yes, but not like this! The theory didn't account for such severe physical manifestations.
