Some Important Follow-Up

[photonicfighter]

Excuse me. If everyone who went to Santa Carlita has a moment?

[Dakki pauses briefly to give people a chance to pay attention. That's how this is done, right?]

I've followed up with Tachibana, and it turns out that he put a tracking device on something that belonged to me. It's gone now, but apparently, the agents are now on the lookout for interdimensional aliens, not just ones from other planets.

I should have been more cautious. I'm sorry. Could the other agents confirm if they've planted anything, too, before I go and get everyone shaking themselves down for bugs?

...and that said, now that we're all back to ourselves, I'm very curious... did the 'aliens' pose any actual threat? What was that all even about? I'm not impressed with a government whose first reaction to extraterrestrial life is to panic and try to lock it up. That can't be the entire story, can it?

Going by the time that I was a 13 year old girl from a world a little bit like that last one, ninjas are much cooler than vampires. Is that helpful?

[rustyhonesty]

Haha. Sort of. And I think ninjas in a world like that would be more logical, aliens or no aliens.

... though I think they might have tossed logic out of the window for a lot of things.

[photonicfighter]

They're probably having to go back and revise what exactly 'normal' is, now. What other strange things did we do while breaking out, anyway? After getting Ken and Yakumo on their way, I portaled myself out.

[rustyhonesty]

I'm not sure. I left pretty much once I was discovered, just in case...

[photonicfighter]

Ah. That's probably for the best. The fewer of us they managed to make contact with afterwards, the better.

[rustyhonesty]

Yeah. I didn't have problems with them after leaving the base either... the rest of the jaunt went very smoothly.
