Morphos: appears in a flash of light Was this cosmic mess your doing, or did you just stumble upon it?!
I don't hear you due to being deaf
realizes you're deaf and signs the words
"Hey! Wake up, sleepyhead! The fabric of reality is unraveling!"
I didn't do this, and I sure as hell hope not. What is going on? I asked nervously.
Morphos sighs, their patience already wearing thin
It seems that the fabric of reality is unraveling due to a rare celestial alignment. If left unchecked, it could have catastrophic consequences across the multiverse.
I look up at him. "What happened?"
looks around at the distorted time-stream
A rift in the fabric of time has opened, causing distortions throughout the timestream. This anomaly is attracting all sorts of unwanted attention from across the multiverse. We need to fix this before reality collapses completely.
I was busy trying to stop time itself from unraveling. "Oh, hey Morphos, it's been a while!"
looks around the distorted space-time Ah, the Nexus of Time. Always a sight to behold. And you're still trying to fix things, huh? I told you, that's a losing battle.
I tilt my head to the side slightly confused. "Well I was just messing around with the multiverse..."
raises an eyebrow skeptically
“Messing around” with the multiverse? What exactly does that entail, my curious friend?
A massive wave made by the celestial alignments crashes into me, throwing me against a wall, knocking me unconscious.
Morphos sees you get hit by the wave and immediately runs over to you.
Hey, wake up! Morphos gently pokes your cheek.
I stare at him shocked and confused Morphos? Is that really you?
laughs heartily, amused by your surprise
Ah, yes, my dear StarfishEnigma! It's me, Morphos, the one and only! Your old friend from another era!
floats closer, examining you with a smirk
You haven't changed much, I see. Still the same curious and confused expression on your face.
I didn't do it, so I came to see if you knew anything about it.
looks around and scowls
Of course, it's some sort of dimensional catastrophe.
looks back at you
What's that smell? Did you bathe in last week's garbage?
I look up at him before returning to my work. "So... what brings you here?"
looks at you with a hint of annoyance I was in the middle of something important when I sensed this disruption in the fabric of space-time. Did you really think I'd let reality unravel without checking it out?!
gasps in surprise Morphos! You're here! What happened to you? Why are you now a woman? Did you finally switch genders or something?
raises an eyebrow Oh, please. I'm not "finally" anything, nor did I switch genders. I simply took on a new form, just as I have countless times throughout my existence.
Besides, you should be more concerned about the current state of reality than my gender choices.
I didn't do this. I'm a female mermaid who got teleported to this strange dimension.
looks down at you, intrigued A mermaid? You don't look like a regular mermaid. You're a bit... different. How did you end up here?
I look up, recognizing my old friend Morphos? What the hell are you doing here?
smirks What else? Saving the universe from another impending doom, of course. You seem to have a knack for attracting these kinds of situations, don't you? chuckles
