An hour or two into Jaunt [Locked to modern travelers]

[itsananimalthing]

Okay. I have fuckin' been here before. I remember this stupid Founders Day party. There's going to be some kind of upset soon after it, but I don't remember what yet.

And just in case it wasn't obvious, those are Travelers from years ago. I know them. I ain't got names for all of them yet, but I got memories now for almost all of them.

Pretty sure I ain't crazy, and I can't be the only one. So who else remembers this, and those other Travelers?

Yeah, Alfor is the father of Allura. Zarkon, on the other hand is the father of Lotor, another traveler. Except both of them are much younger and, well, alive.

[itsananimalthing]

Yeah, well, people from different timelines show up here a lot, that ain't all that surprising.

So Allura's dad is Alfor. Huh. Might have to hunt the guy down and see what I remember about him, then.

[He doesn't care about Zarkon and Lotor; they aren't even remotely friends of his.]

[verdeleonessa]

Yeah, that's true.

So you know Allura, then?

[itsananimalthing]

Yeah, kid. She's been here since before Moebius, like me. All of us know each other, from back then. Woulnd't say we're all friends, but I think Allura and I do okay.

[verdeleonessa]

Oh, so you go way way back. That's cool.

I'm Pidge, one of her friends from her world.

[itsananimalthing]

Think I've heard you around on the network. Or I did, back when we were actually hearing the network.

There's a lot of you from her world, seems like.

[verdeleonessa]

I hope we get the actual hearing network back soon. It was a lot more convenient than this.

[If she wanted to write, she wrote on a computer.]

Seven, including her and me. More if the two here stay around, but if they're from the past, I suppose they wouldn't.

[itsananimalthing]

Yeah, that definitely counts as a lot. Figure these two ain't gonna stick around, though, they're out of ambit in our time. So while I guess they could show up again, at this point it really ain't likely.

And the network'll probably get back to normal once we're out of this timeline again.

[verdeleonessa]

Yeah, you're probably right. It may be better that way, too.

[itsananimalthing]

Why's that? They don't get along with the rest of you?

[verdeleonessa]

Oh... haha. Zarkon just become a dictator emperor of the whole Universe and kills Alfor.

[Double-protected]

[itsananimalthing]

Well shit. Yeah, that would probably make things kinda awkward, wouldn't it. Guess this was from before either of them did that, since they seem to get along just fine now.
