I do not see Patricia anywhere. Are you letting me know on her behalf?

Smollusk wants me to "babysit" today... to which I'd normally have no issue.

Unfortunately, it looks as though I've hit a roadblock.

[ Johnny didn't have that same connection to her as Three did, but it should be obvious where her mind is at.

Eight didn't chat with him at all. The octoling kept her silence the whole walk until reaching the building. ]

What will happen, I wonder? Are you going to remember any of this?

𝙏𝙝𝙚 𝘾𝙖𝙥𝙩𝙖𝙞𝙣 @maritim3m3mory.bsky.social · Feb 14

— down to here. I asked around. Everyone who got brought here was in Alterna when it happened.

...and I'm the only one who hasn't gone back. It must've started at me.

( he pointed to a building in the distance. )

In there's where I woke up. That's our best bet.

𝙏𝙝𝙚 𝙀𝙞𝙜𝙝𝙩𝙝 @octoflying.bsky.social · Feb 14

[ Eight's been here so often the artificial snow and structures of the past have lost their luster, not that there was time to stop and sightsee. She had a mission to complete. ]

I don't venture far beyond the ooze when I'm here. Is there somewhere you'd like to go?

𝙏𝙝𝙚 𝘾𝙖𝙥𝙩𝙖𝙞𝙣 @maritim3m3mory.bsky.social · Feb 14

( Johnny watched closely as she slipped away, keeping count in his head.

1...

2...

3...

His turn.

He followed suit, slinking away through as a squid.

The path was straightforward. He and Patricia would emerge from another manhole deep underground, back to the snowy Alterna. )

𝙏𝙝𝙚 𝙀𝙞𝙜𝙝𝙩𝙝 @octoflying.bsky.social · Feb 14

[ Turning to meet his gaze from above, she nodded in silence. It was about time they fixed this.

It was a short walk to the manhole still missing its cover, no garbage to impede their travels. ]

Wait three seconds, then follow.

[ The octoling transforms into swim form and sinks into the hole. ]

Patricia...

( Footsteps could be heard behind @octoflying.bsky.social, the younger Three could be seen gazing up at her with a determined look. )

Can you.. take me to Alterna? Please. I think that's how I can get home.

𝙏𝙝𝙚 𝙀𝙞𝙜𝙝𝙩𝙝 @octoflying.bsky.social · Feb 11

We've come so far since then, haven't we?

Take Four's advice and relax. You're in no condition to be panicking all the time.

[ Time travel? A comical suggestion, but only her eyes would suggest that opinion of hers. At that point, magic is on that table. ]

They might not be fortunate enough to have an alternative.

𝙏𝙝𝙚 𝘾𝙖𝙥𝙩𝙖𝙞𝙣 @maritim3m3mory.bsky.social · Feb 2

Maybe?

That place was full of weird machines. Older me could've walked into one made for time travel on accident or something.

( His imagination reached for a conclusion like that, but it was the only one Johnny could come up with. )

Why would anyone want to live in a place like that...

𝙏𝙝𝙚 𝙀𝙞𝙜𝙝𝙩𝙝 @octoflying.bsky.social · Feb 2

Perhaps...

That's where you spend most of your efforts in the current day. I believe I told you already how you were planning on making it a safe living space.

Does the answer lie there?

Uh, well..

There wasn't much that happened. I was with Callie and Marie one second, everything went white, and then I woke up here.

Not 'here,' but specifically that creepy city with all the snow. Al..terna? That's what it's called?
Could that be important?

𝙏𝙝𝙚 𝙀𝙞𝙜𝙝𝙩𝙝 @octoflying.bsky.social · Feb 2

[ The steps to that, however, are unclear to her. Most of this situation is filled with unknowns best suited for someone else.

That's not to say she won't assist John, but Eight's no expert. ]

Is there anything you can tell me? Something that sticks out in your mind?
