Ugh. It's been 6+ months since whatever happened.

I've had to work as "Burger World", struggling with people using the old language.

And my account got hacked and I just finally got access to it.

And could someone explain to me why Japan is acting like it's an independent country and not the 51st to 54th states of America.

Things would get out of hand, quickly. And having to deal with the ramifications of you being displaced would cause... problems. Problems that I would then probably have to prioritize.

At minimum, it'd keep us too preoccupied to deal with Echo's machinations... at worst...

Possibly fracture and destroy the entire timeline due to the sheer disparity.

The only survivors would be The Uncrowned Queen and The Crown Heir of Hyperborea.

Which is, presumably, Echo's endgame, from what little I was able to decipher from what Bohr knew.

So it makes sense to target you first, load-bearing pillar. Uuuugh.

[ He puts a hand to his head, closing his eyes. ]

So, do you have an idea of how to send her back? I'm afraid my knowledge of the Different Dimension is probably going to be more help than hindrance when it comes to dopplegangers who share the same quantum state...

Are trucks not supposed to be able to aid in the task?

From:

becomeanwarrior

...Trucks? How would a truck hel-

[ Oh god. Oh no. Oh fuck. ]

No no no no! That's a joke people make online! That doesn't actually send you to a different world, it usually kills you!

From:

last_sundust

... But many of your books suggest it does.

From:

becomeanwarrior

Those are fiction! No one's ever actually been sent to another world by getting hit with a truck!

And frankly I don't want to know what would happen if she shares your quantum state but gets hit by one!

From:

last_sundust

As long as she does not defeat me, she would merely die and that would resolve the problem, Warlord.

Pragmatically, we should have a truck hit her, regardless, for the stability of creation itself.

::She does seem annoyed by the idea.::

From:

becomeanwarrior

There has to be a better way of returning her to her own world-slash-dimension-slash-timeline-slash-whatever than running her over.

From:

last_sundust

... Such as?

From:

becomeanwarrior

I dunno! A duel or something? These kinds of things are typically defused with a duel.

From:

last_sundust

Yes, risk my divine existence and the stability of the entire timeline as well as the future of Japan on a Duel.

From:

becomeanwarrior

I mean, okay, yes, dumb idea, but hear me out: It literally always works.

I mean, it's that or try to hit her with my prototype attempt to replicate your spear but there's no telling if she ends up back home or in some weird corner of the Different Dimension...

From:

last_sundust

... This is quite irritating...

From:

becomeanwarrior

Yeaaaah, tell me about it.

[ He sighs. ]

...If no other clear path presents itself, then maybe we can try the uh. Truck. Who knows, maybe it'll work.

But I think we should try to engage her in... reasonably good faith, first.
