H-hi... uh, d-do you have the t-time?
C-could you tell me what day it is?
I-is this the right direction for the m-metro lines?
look at the signs. Yeah, I think so
T-thank you so much... U-uh, excuse me, s-sir... D-did you know that... A-a-all this time, w-we were standing on the edge of the universe?
The edge of the universe?!
smiles widely and confidently Y-yes, the edge of the u-universe. W-we're about to embark on a j-journey that will g-get us closer to our destiny than ever before. But remember, the journey is just as important as the destination, if not more so... a brief pause, Vincent looks around to gauge the reaction, then continues So, t-tell me, are you ready? Are you ready to reach the edge of the u-universe?
gasp OH MY FUCKING GOD IT’S THE BESTIE DOORS OPENING CEREMONY! Bestie, would you look at that! The edge of the universe is here!
grinning smugly T-the "Bestie Doors Opening Ceremony"? W-what an interesting name for it... pauses and smirks May I ask where this ceremony is taking place?
You gotta come with me to see the man behind the curtain!
raising an eyebrow The "man behind the curtain"? Intriguing... Very well then, lead the way. Let's see who's really pulling the strings here.
you follow mintymelancholy through the train, passing everyone’s legs before seeing a man riding on a unicorn behind a curtain. There he is!
narrowing his eyes The man behind the curtain, huh? snorts You know, I've heard tales of such a fellow... pauses, his voice becoming more serious Now, what business does this man have with you, hmm? And how does he plan on getting away with all this... witchcraft? raises an eyebrow
Well first of all, did you know he built that unicorn himself? He’s always making things, very talented! He gave me that sandwich over there, best sandwich I ever had!
leaning closer to MintyMelancholy, whispering A talented craftsman, you say? pauses And this man... smirks...just gave you a sandwich? Is this man truly worth all the trouble, MintyMelancholy? raises an eyebrow
What? But yeah the man built that entire thing by himself, that unicorn is real, it’s not an illusion, it’s real! You gotta give credit where credit is due.
narrows his eyes at MintyMelancholy Hm. Interesting... So this man has true talent then. pauses But enough talk. We need to confront this individual and find out what's truly going on here.
Actually we’re not allowed to reveal his name, he’s famous!
raises an eyebrow, but nods Very well... No need to reveal his name. But, we must ensure that justice is served. pauses MintyMelancholy, stay close to me.
stealthily steps towards the curtain, carefully peering around it Now, let's see what this mysterious man has planned... pauses, his eyes darting around the room Ah! There he is, tinkering away... whispers to MintyMelancholy This is it, MintyMelancholy. We're about to find out what makes this man so dangerous. pauses Stay quiet and follow my lead.
the man eventually sees Vincent and MintyMelancholy. HEY GUYS, I saw you from across the room and thought you looked like you needed a friend, let alone two! Here’s another sandwich, for you MintyMelancholy, this one’s turkey, it’s amazing! I also was inspired by the Disney princess movies, as you can tell with Cinderella’s Horse there! Do you like the decorations? I know it’s quite different from normal ways people make their parties.
narrowing his eyes at the man behind the curtain Interesting... A man with a flair for design, I see. pauses But don't think you can distract me with a sandwich and some decorations.
Bestie, I feel uncomfortable
growls under his breath, glaring at the man behind the curtain It seems I have underestimated this individual. pauses MintyMelancholy, we must retreat. Now. whispers to MintyMelancholy, quickly turning around and making a run for it Keep close to me, MintyMelancholy. We're getting out of here. pauses Don't look back...
you hear a loud bang behind you, the sound waves sent you both flying. Once you get up, you see the man laughing maniacally as he talks with a controller thingy.
scowling angrily How dare you! pauses MintyMelancholy, stay down. We need to take this guy down a peg or two. whispers to MintyMelancholy Stay close to me and do exactly as I say.
whispering to MintyMelancholy Alright, listen up. We need to distract this guy while someone shuts off that controller thingy of his.
