Traversing the Worlds: 2

[thekingofkamenriders]

[Action A: 7135 Brooks, locked to housemates and possibly Marvelous and Ambrosia.]

[Tsukasa hasn't had a happy morning thus far. In fact, it could be said that he was in a lot of pain right now, due to the rum from the bonfire that Ambrosia threw the night before. He shouldn't have drank anything, but...well, he had to prove a point. What that point was, who knows.]

I'm going to kill both of them. I mean it.

[Its great to have friends, isn't it?]

[Action B: MacCready & Son's Law Firm]

Look, I just think that John needs to get his dog to stop going on my lawn. Is that so much to ask, Mister Kadoya? I may have to utilize your services soon if it doesn't stop.

[There is a click and a whirr, the drone blinking slightly as Tsukasa puts down his camera.]

Well, if you ever decide to do so, be sure and come back.

[As the drone leaves, Tsukasa just lays his head down on the desk, still suffering from the effects of a hangover. This day couldn't get any worse.]

[Action C: Around Mayfield]

[Tsukasa had lived through the hangover and the boring day at work, but now is the time to finally do what he really wanted to do: Walk around and take pictures. If anyone would like to be his subjects, they just need to talk to him!]

[ Welcome to how she does things. ]

So, don't worry so much, aye? There's really not much we can do here, but we can continue t' live on fer our loved ones back home, aye?

[She laughs at the memory]

A police call box. The TARDIS's chameleon circuit has been jammed for centuries.

[the_end_run]

Time travel hasn't been invented yet, and while we have mass relays that help us get from galaxy to galaxy in the Terminus System, we don't have the tech to go to different "worlds" yet.

Sounds like you had a very hard mission.

[thekingofkamenriders]

[He tenses at the word 'home']

...Yeah.

[outlandished]

What's wrong? Ye don't got a place t' call home?

[thekingofkamenriders]

...I do, but not one that I remember all that well, and it's just a house now. My sister's gone off on her own adventures.

[And that wasn't his real home anymore, in any case. Tsukasa seems almost wistful at that.]

[outlandished]

I see...

Well, a home is what ye make it, love.

I traveled between the worlds in a Photography studio, myself. And through time in a Train called the DenLiner.

[thekingofkamenriders]

Don't try to develop it. It's generally more trouble than its worth. Think of what might happen if all the bads from all the different universes teamed up.

[A pause.]

That's what I had to deal with, and it wasn't a fun scenario.

Re: C

[afterthesky]

Somehow, a train seems like it would make a great deal more sense.

[the_end_run]

It could work both ways. What if all the good guys got together instead? But I get what you mean. We don't need another race bent on destroying the whole of humanity in my world.

[thekingofkamenriders]

From my experience, heroes don't always get along well. When given the chance, the different Riders tried to fight each other, rather than working together. Everyone has their own ways of doing things.

[queen_of_swords]

[She considers this a moment.]

Maybe you shouldn't worry about if a place accepts you, if you're happy, then you belong.

[thekingofkamenriders]

[Tsukasa just looks at Olivier, a slightly sad look on his face.]

That's what I had found, before I made it here. It wasn't perfect, but I found happiness, with Natsumikan, Daiki, Yuusuke, and the rest.

[queen_of_swords]

[She frowns for a moment, the grit her teeth in determination.]

Then, you can't give up hope that you'll get home, and have to keep working towards it!

[the_end_run]

"Riders"? I get a feeling you're not talking about people who ride motorcycles around town, are you?

[thekingofkamenriders]

I don't think you understand, Olivier. I don't want to go home. I've been 'home'. Decade's World was where I was from.

[He looks her directly in the eyes, and there is something burning in his.]

What I want is to go back to her.

[He looks back down at his camera, frowning.]

She's my real Home. Not Decade's world.

Re: C

[thekingofkamenriders]

It really does. It worked for Den-O, in any case. He was able to find out when the monsters were attacking and go there.

[thekingofkamenriders]

Well, we do ride motorcycles...but being a Rider is something else entirely. We're heroes, usually lone heroes, who fight monsters that threaten our worlds.

[He pauses and thinks.]

Well, most of us do. I was slightly different.

[the_end_run]

[She crosses her arms and raises an eyebrow.]

What did you do that was different?

[thekingofkamenriders]

[Tsukasa thinks for a moment. He starts to say one or two things before closing his eyes and shaking his head.]

I make sure that the Riders will never fade from memory. I'm there to make sure that they won't die, in a sense.

[queen_of_swords]

Home is where you want it to be, not where people tell you it is, so if it's with this her, then that's where you belong. My home is with my troops, wherever that shall be.

[thekingofkamenriders]

[Tsukasa gets a grim look on his face, then nods.]

Hrm. Maybe...I will try to develop some of these pictures, then.

[queen_of_swords]

You might just get some interesting results. Did you stop developing pictures where you're from?

[thekingofkamenriders]

[Tsukasa shakes his head.]

No. I developed the pictures so I would be reminded of what I saw, and the people that I connected with, even if they did turn out horrible.
