[This was… new. The titanium bot hadn’t yet made the connection to the strange place he’d been before, given the trees nearby. Just giving them an uncertain look as he tugged thoughtfully on the brim of his hat, huffing a cloud of steam.]

When I said I was in the mood for somethin’ interesting happening today, this wasn’t quite what I had in mind buddy.

[Flashing the drone a faint grin as he said this, turning from the woods to head towards the buildings nearby, figuring that would be a better chance for finding his siblings, if either of them had come along for the ride. Pausing, a slight sway to his stance as his balance adjusted, gaze skipping back towards the drone with a thoughtful look.]

You wouldn’t know if Rabbit or Hatchy showed up here too, would you?

[Anyone in the northwest sector of Haven might spy the small bot wandering, his drone dutifully tagging along. He didn't seem overly worried, more curious about his surroundings then anything as he explored his new surroundings. Really it could be worse. The drone could have mustard and sombreros.]

Well that's not one that happens often. Suppose it could be worse, could be couple hundred years apart instead of just one.

Or something more moderate but still substantial---couple decades' difference? That's the situation with me and my roomie.

Sometimes that's almost worse; things are just similar enough to make it hard to get em to adjust. Had a girl blink back into reality a couple weeks back, she'd been on the board since the 80's as being lost to the rift that sometimes opens behind the fridge.

She okay? And you willing to elaborate on this rift if I ask nice?

[cos what the f--k, friend]

Oh she's fine. Dealing with culture shock but apparently she spent most of the time playing checkers with a sentient coat-rack and a lobstaur in a pocket dimension that we think was somewhere around Bip given the strawberry sherbet that would leak in on occasion.

As for the rift no one's sure why it opens, it just shows up on occasion, kinda like the one in the coat closet. But that one usually just spits poker chips and flamingos at folk with out-of-style coats.

[This is legit a thing, Sam.]

[Is it? Is it really?]

You seem nice enough but I still gotta ask [no really no auras over video so asking is her only option] if you're shitting me, man.

[It's cool either way cause she's too amused to be annoyed if the answer is yes.]

[He'd been expecting that question clearly, if the soft laugh it earns is any hint.]

Sometimes I think life would be easier if I was, but nope.

Well, then. I could roll with ancient robo-Satan space Cthulhu, I can roll with Far Side stories, but, that said? I'd sure like to know who's telling them.

Well that can be done, no problem. I'm The Spine, it's a pleasure to meet you miss...?

Samantha Patchowski, though just 'Sam' is fine and it's very nice to meet you, too.

So give me the cliff notes, what's the deal this time? I hear there's no First Forged this time around, what other stuff's different?
