Masa con Papas: Proxy's Memory

[image description: Paige, a bedsheet ghost-like proxy of ambiguous species and gender lays on the living room couch.]
 
After a nice break, Anura takes you to a corner of the room with a large mirror.

Charon: This legitimate? Seems ancient..

Anura: Real blessed silver.

The appearance is entirely fogged up, at best you can see the corners of the background around the edges.

Charon: Can't see my reflection...

Anura: It's how you know it's working.. So, shall we give it a spin?

Charon: Take lead.

Anura gives the mirror a little bow before stepping aside.

The image clears up, you can see through the break area of the safehouse. A familiar rabbit stands directly in front, with Opera in the corner eating a breakfast sandwich.

Mercury: Yo Charon's here, he's got a rat with him-

Opera: What?!

Mercury: Yeah, you know anything about-

The sea bunny is immediately shoved aside.

Opera: Charon?! Is everything alright? Why is Styx in the front?!

Charon: I'm fine, at my grandfather's place...

Opera: You mean like, Arabis or...

Charon: Actual grandfather, not several times great-

Opera: Wait what. Like, Erica's-

Charon: Mm..

Anura: It's more complicated than that but-

Opera: Is that him behind you...?

Charon: Mm..

Mercury: Rat...

Charon: Yes.

Mercury: He's kinda cute not gonna lie-

Anura: Accounted for.

Mercury: Shame, got any friends?

Anura: Perhaps..

Charon: Need you both to stop.

Mercury: Sorry.. where are you though actually?

Opera: Yeah, are you in the castle or..?

Charon: In some kind of rift, a pocket between worlds of sort not too unlike the one we dealt with. I've got a bit of a request.

There's a little sigh let out, cat visibly a little on edge.

Opera: ...Okay, sure.

Charon: I want you to come with me, there's something deeply wrong here and it's tied to what happened back then.

The cat turns quiet.

Charon: I know its a lot to ask and you've got plenty on your plate-

Opera: No, if this can help us out with all that we're about to take on I've got you. Just... should I tell Geezer?

Mercury: I can handle that for you, can we keep communications going if we gotta?

Anura: We can! I have a handheld mirror for this purpose I can dig up.

Mercury: Cool, anyone else I should fill in?

Charon: Just Geezer for now, he can make good judgment on how to handle details from there. Prioritize our old crew first though..

Opera: So no Bucket?

Charon: I need a break from Bucket if I'm frank, If I have to fight them one more time I'm taking them to the ground.

Anura:...Bucket is out there?

Charon: Mm..

Anura: I see.. second limiting distribution of details for now, lot to process and well... topic for another time.

You give the rat a hand on the shoulder.

Anura: I apologize..

Charon: You're fine. So, Opera?

Opera: Merc?

Mercury: Go ahead, I'll handle the house from here. Keep Geezer and Bucket from killing each other...

Charon: Mm..

Opera: Then take me away.

He reach a hand out through the mirror, Opera latches on before you yank her through the other side.


She stumbles a bit, Paige's head poking out irritated from the cloak on her shoulder.

Charon: Looks like we woke them up...

Opera: He'll be fine, right buddy?

Paige gives the two of you a sulky energy before making their way over to the couch with Rook.

Charon: They can have their time I suppose..

Opera: Mm..

Her fur visibly stands a little bit too on closer glance.

Charon: You gonna be alright?

Opera: Hate going into places like these, you can always feel something big watching you..

Anura: I assure you that's just a docile psychofauna...

Opera: I don't like that you got a term for that.

The rat gave her a shrug.

Anura: Occupational hazard.

Opera: Feel that a bit too much. So uh.. Merc?

The rabbit gives you a thumbs up.

Mercury: I'll keep a tab as much as I can, fill you in as things play out. Sound good?

Opera: Yeah, trusting you big here!

Mercury: I know, you kids stay safe in there.

Charon: As much as we can.

Mercury:... Right. I'm on standby then, anytime call in.

The mirror's glass cloud up instantly.  

Anura points directly at the cat.

Anura: You look overworked, you should get a little rest yourself while you're here.

Opera: Charon?

Charon: He won't take no, promised him I would anyway.

Opera: Guess we're on break then...

She looks you up and down and gives you the slightest frown.

Opera: It's only been like a couple of hours dude..

Charon: Time operates differently in here...

Opera: So how long-

Charon: Two days.

She immediately gives you a big hug.

You awkwardly return it.

Opera: You can't just do that...

Charon: I know..  that's why I'm asking for help.

Opera: Don't wait next time things get rough..

Charon: I'm sorry.

She looks over to Anura.

Anura: Something on your mind?

Opera: You're an entity.

Anura: Mm, you are correct..

Opera: Feels hard to believe. Don't... really like being around them much if I'm honest but...

Opera: You're different.

Anura: Every entity is... I don't blame you for your caution however.

Opera: And Charon's got some stuff going on too..

Opera: You took care of my friend so.. as long as ya'll can give me space when I need I can try to trust you.

Anura: I won't let it be misplaced..

She gives him a quiet little nod before walking you over to the couch.

Charon: What's up?

Opera: Making sure you get your rest too, your proxy's got the right idea.
