( open )

Date & Time: Several days after the necromorph outbreak

[ Chrono doesn't bother to close the door when he finally decides to try one of these rooms for himself. Something about the last few days (weeks) (months) has left him unwilling to stay in enclosed spaces too long, with no obvious path of exist. Too much like a lab or an undead-lined hallway.

But these concerns slowly melt away as he sets about instructing the AI, and the room gives way to a place that isn't a room at all.

Mountains rise up in the distance, framing a blue, clear sky, and a faint breeze rustles the treetops of a thick Michigan forest. Birdcalls ride that wind, and the air smells cleaner, fresher, than any moon base could reasonably boast. Where the blanket of trees ends, a large, glassy lake gleams in the sunlight. He takes care with this part—instructs the AI to make the water a temperature a bit too low to be entirely comfortable for swimming, knowing full well that this won't actually be a deterrent. But it wouldn't be right, otherwise.

He takes his time strolling from one familiar landmark to the next, having the computer make adjustments as necessary. He doesn't miss details, either; for all the times that Rosette brought him to this very place, his eyes had missed nothing. They were wide and all-absorbing, like someone who had been born anew and was discovering the world for the first time.

(Likely because, in all honesty, he had been.)

He stops once he circles back around to the open door—a black silhouette hanging oddly in the landscape, and the only giveaway that none of this is real. It's here that he surveys the scene as a whole, the sum of all its little memory-parts. ]


Perfect.

[ Well. There's still a thing or two missing. ]

... Almost.

I'm still in training, but I've been meditating lately so....[First y'all up in her space, then y'all not all up in her space... she just continues looking at him, kind of puzzled by his reaction]

Um... Chrono? [That's his name, right?]

[After a minute she'll wave her hand in front of his face]

[He spaced out]

[...And then he complimented her. The angry boy who flipped tables not only believed her right off the bat, but also complimented her? Wow]


Ahaha... I come from a whole village of spirit mediums! And thanks to sis, channeling has bailed Nick out of a few jams.

..And if you want me to channel someone, I just need a name and a picture! Or a video or something.

Alright. [Not much more than that. Truth be told, she's nervous to try channeling again - the last time she couldn't do it at all, and she let Nick down. But either he'll ask her to or he won't. And she'd deal with it then]

He's a totally hopeless lug, that's who. It's my job to take care of him, you know.
