Just a Passing Assassin...

[ThreadLurkingComorant]

 Spiral: Have you ever been to a carnival? Have I actually…

The not-fungus, sorta-spider's eyes flicker with excitement.



Cabinetta: Never, not even once!

Cabinetta: I’ve seen them many times in works of fiction but…

Cabinetta: Beyond that? Nope!

Spiral: Let’s do that then! Think it’d be fun, lots of little stuff to do..

Spiral: Could win you a brain plushie for your brain home.

Cabinetta: Do I have one of those..? I suppose I could.

Cabinetta: Right now we're in a bridge that combines our outer most thoughts effectively. What is here is what we are willing to share, thoughts and consciousness transferring back and forth through through a single bite. In theory we could send gifts, even visit each other's spaces which.. would be a place to put that I suppose?

Cabinetta: Not too far off from walking one home after a nice evening, though choosing the spend the night over is likely not ideal...

Cabinetta: Very well then!

The ground rumbles as entire forms and structures start to erect from the ground below you, terraforming into a festival of light and color.

A few castles and big towering metal serve as the backdrop, the sky full as can be.

Dancing mascots of avian and reptilian variety in jesters outfits seem to run the booths and tents for games, rides, and food.

Light music plays, setting the mood. You don’t recognize it as anything particularly carnival though, perhaps… from a game?

It’s… a lot more abstracted than you were initially expecting though. Some things didn’t seem to entirely load in.

It feels like a Carnival but you get the sense that this isn’t quite right, your memory may have a few blanks.

Spiral: Huh… is this how that works?

Cabinetta: What do you mean?

Spiral: I mean… uh..

Spiral: Feels like something’s missing I guess?

Cabinetta: Well.. if we’re linked like this..

Cabinetta: And I’ve never been to one…
Spiral: And I can’t remember shit..

Cabinetta: It seems to be a mish mash of components from both of our understandings…

Spiral: Huh…



You look up directly at the moon, a chunk visibly missing.

Spiral:.. Is that like.

Cabinetta: Hmm?

You point her toward the sky.

Cabinetta: AH!

Cabinetta: That’s a pretty big spoiler…

Spiral: For what??

Cabinetta: I can’t say! You’ll have to find out another time.

You fear what oracle knowledge she contains, this spider

Cabinetta: For now…



Cabinetta: I would like to go on a ride...
