You better end the energy loop altogether. Esperanza <span class="mu-i">thinks</span> only Gordon is capable of getting ahold of his bubble body, but maybe that’s not the case – we’re talking about flames here. Who knows what random thing is bound to happen that’ll allow someone else to do the exact same thing? You can’t risk it.
You’re going to need to contact San Wich to discuss a way for him to close the gate.
“I’m right here, friends!” That’s San Wich’s voice. Wait, you haven’t left dreamland, what’s going on? He can contact you here?!
“It seems like he can, partner.” Philonune informs you that this isn’t your imagination and he’s here as well. He didn’t say much earlier with Esperanza and Smithele, he thought of them as too finicky to intervene, and not screw things up. “Hey there!”
“Is there anything you want to discuss?” San Wich is ready to have a friendly chat.
“Huh, why are you here? <span class="mu-i">How</span> are you here? What’s going on?” You correct yourself.
“I’m iffy on the details. I had a deep desire to discuss something with you, friend. Even with great effort, I couldn’t get a hold of you before, but then I teleported here! It’s incredible!” San Wich isn’t sure how his abilities work. “I heard you talk with that girl before, apologies for intruding.”
“You did?” You’re surprised Esperanza didn’t notice him.
“At the very end, yes.” San nods.
“Can you do it? Can you close the gate?” You wonder.
“Possibly, yes! I’d need to investigate how, but with everyone’s help, it won’t take long.” San Wich is confident thanks to you all. “Naiad, Philonune, and Nekomotor have helped me immensely to understand my capabilities.”
“Who’s Nekomotor?” You think you missed something.
“Leo Major’s entity!” San Wich clarifies. Philonune confirms it. Huh, you forgot.
“Right!” You get effusive too. It’s contagious. “I’ll trust you with that then!”
“Count on me, friend!” San Wich is ready to solve this issue!
“What do you need me for anyway?” You want to know the reason why he wanted to talk to you.
“Oh yes. What’s your favorite color, friend?” San Wich gets serious.
“Purple.” You give him a serious answer.
“Excellent! Thank you, friend!” San is very excited now. He waves goodbye. “I’ll be working on the task you require done! See you two on the other side!”
“See ya!” You wave back.
“Take care.” Philonune waves in his flame form somehow.
It’s a beautiful morning inside the camper! You wake up on the mattress, sleeping bag all open acting like bedsheets, and you’re not alone under them – Matilda is sleeping behind you, acting like the big spoon. Wait a second, you’re wearing a purple scarf! And Matilda has a blue scarf too! Is this why San Wich asked for your favorite color? Wait, Matilda’s favorite color is blue? How predictable. Anyway, you have the entire day ahead…
