“May I suggest talking about the Bubble Dimension?” You think that’d be a good point to start at.
“Ah! Yes! Let’s start from the beginning!” Giorsal didn’t think of the most obvious answer, shocker.
“It all began when we were helping Wilma, another flame user, to somewhat break out of her depression, and regain control of her life. Her entity, San Wich, had sole possession of her body, but someone – I’m not pointing fingers – had to change the rules and make it illegal for entities to control their hosts…” You have been waiting to throw this shade for so long.
“Gah?! We provoked this?!” Giorsal is a little horrified by her actions!
“Y-Yeah, proposing rules, who would’ve done that?” Scarlet is also responsible for the rules. It’d be unfair to blame them for what happened, but it’d be funny if you still did.
“We ended up triggering some of Wilma’s bad memories, which in turn also triggered her own special ability, and we assume both powers combined somehow to create the Bubble Dimension.” You continue your explanation.
“Wilma’s memory tears transformed into a bubble-shaped gate to another dimension that sucked in a couple of friends, thus the name.” Bubbles explains she has nothing to do with this bubble.
“Memory tears? What are those?” Suan De takes a moment to ask a question that everyone is curious about.
“Wilma’s teardrops become a window to the memories she’s thinking about. It’s pretty eerie…” Scarlet adds.
“And you’re telling us this is *not* her entity’s ability?” Giorsal doesn’t buy it.
“Nope, San Wich had absolute control over the other dimension. Wilma’s tears are like my ability to see flames.” You clarify. “Said dimension is a perfect reconstruction of our world but 25 years in the past… I thought I time traveled at first, but it was 10 times cooler than I could ever imagine.” After all, one of the 27 phrases that define you is <span class="mu-i">‘Always ready for Adventure™’</span> (Ignore yesterday.)
“A simulation like this exists?” Suan De doesn’t know how to feel.
“It’s more like a parallel dimension connected to ours.” Scarlet corrects. “It’s all very confusing! So, don’t worry if you don’t get it at first.”
“No. I understand.” Suan De believes the explanation sufficed.
“Trust me! It’ll get even more confusing!” Scarlet turns her eyes to you. “Johnny, explain every detail!” The redhead is petty.
“Okay…” You explain everything that Naiad, San Wich, Dorothy, and all other self-discoveries tell you about the nature of the Bubble. Like how that dimension shared spiritual energy with this world in and out, creating a bond between both versions of themselves. And the Bubble Dimension’s codependency on this world for its existence. “…That’s it.”
“<span class="mu-i">Mhm, mhm, mhm…</span>” Giorsal writes it all down like a diligent student.
“See?! Not that simple now!” Scarlet smirks at Suan De.
