And Were Back Baby!

And we’re back baby!

Ingo Orders a Pizza (and Ends up Regretting it Immensely)

Summary: After three years in Hisui, Ingo has finally returned to Nimbasa! Unfortunately, he’s a bit lost and maybe a liiiiittle bit hungry. A slice or two of pizza couldn’t hurt… right?

Oh did I promise a new AU today?

SURPRISE FRICKER!! NEW CHAPTER INSTEAD!!!

Silver Bloodstains chapter 19: Cinderella

Summary: Emmet meets with Mistress Cogita.

#woah!! I assume the ship crash and Emmet falling in were the same event or at least connected

Yup yup! They’d run into some nasty pirates while traveling and quickly found themselves out gunned and outmatched. Both of their ships suffered massive damage during the fight, and if they didn’t find a way out of the situation quickly, there was a very real chance they were going to die. So they pulled a Hail Mary.

They entered a black hole.

Now black holes are risky and dangerous- but they are a legitimate form of travel. They could send you to the other side of the galaxy in an instant… but you can't control where exactly and it would seriously damage your ship. Neither Emmet nor Ingo had ever wanted to take those risks, but they were out of options.

It didn’t go well.

(Also, I'm not sure why they're called black holes in game when their function is that of a wormhole???)

#I don't know if it's like that in the game but the glass dimension being purple reminds me of space time distortions #they also remind me of glass domes

You know, I’m not sure how I haven’t made the connection between the distortion world and the land of glass. But you’re totally right that they’re similar!

If I had to guess why, I'd wager it's because the Land of Glass isn't purple... even though the glass itself is.

(The forbidden screenshot)

That’s kinda counterintuitive, but the reasoning for the discrepancy lies behind a part of the AU I haven’t actually mentioned yet:

The Sentinels.

Aka, the antagonists of this AU.

No update this week. More health nonsense.

I’m curious now- what were the rest of emmets messages? Was he sending them while being cut apart in the Evil Glass Dimension?

Oh I was sooooo gunna write them all out for you... but that would b a fic's worth of words and I'm doing this format to avoid too much extra writing. Regardless...

As soon as Emmet could get his communicator working he started sending messages to Ingo. It was... discouraging when the first few obviously didn't go through, but he kept at it. Not really because he expected a response, but more because he needed to someone to talk to, even if they couldn't talk back.

Unbeknownst to him, Ingo was getting his messages, just not when he was sending them. Instead, Ingo's grand quest is to travel the far reaches of the galaxy to receive each one- each message its own tiny shard of glass.

Each message is a quest to obtain, and each shard leaves Ingo feeling more and more worried.

Sure, it all starts okay, with Emmet absolutely sure that he can find some locals and borrow a ship out of there...

But slowly things start to become... off.

He's forgetting things- his plan, where he's been, where he's going. It starts small at first, Emmet doesn't even notice, but...

But he does eventually.

Eventually he realizes that he's losing himself, piece by piece, and he's scared. He's scared because he doesn't know what's happening, doesn't know how to stop it, doesn't know what he's losing.

Each message gets more and more disjointed, less coherent.

He forgets his name at one point.

...He forget's Ingo's a while later.

He can't remember who he is or who he's talking to, can't remember where he's going or where he's from.

He knows.. he knows he's talking to someone but-

He knows they must be dead. Whoever it was. That's why he's alone now right? That's why... that's why...

He has to keep sending messages.

It's all he has.

Please.

I miss you

I’ve mentioned a few weeks ago that I’ve got a new AU incoming- and I’m really excited to share it with you! But, as you might have noticed, I currently have way too many projects rn to take on any other fics, so this will have to remain a tumblr only thing for the forceable future.

THAT BEING SAID

I really want this to be an AU people are curious about and want to interact with! Especially if it isn’t leaving tumblr any time soon.

So!
