Eer: “I’ll do it myself…” She huffs.
Pissy shrugs. “Alright, so am I gonna stay here and be bored?”
Jordane asks what meiste is and Michelle takes the chance to explain some simple history she’d leaned through Izi and Lozef’s library.
Pat: “I just want to know, are you a fairy?” He points to Eve.
Eve: “a fairy? No…”
Lockie:“You do look suspiciously like a fairy. You’re very pretty
”
“Oh! Like mama?” Heather wonders.“So it’s custom to take the woman’s name?”
Eric:“Let’s get you your popsicle so you can go get tortured,” he jokes to Anansi.
Eer: “I’m just sleeping in–do what you want.”
Hota giggles: “I agree–she’s very pretty.” They nod. “Yes, Michelle is right. Etymologically, Meiste literally means ‘everything,’ but it’s come to be a word for the force of everything around us–including our souls.”
Yessei: “Well, mah- was an old word for ‘of.’” She nods. “But yes, usually we take our mother’s name, although Alice’s children are still Mahyessei. Why? No clue.”
Anansi: “Wait, tortured?” She blinks. “What did I just sign up for…”
Pissy goes out again. “Maybe deer is too much for breakfast?”
Eve happily kisses Hota’s cheek. “You’re pretty, too.”
“Oh!” Jordane has an epiphany… “Like Star Wars and the force!”
Eric smirks. “You should be fine. Come, come.” He wants her and the other two out the gym to the courtyard to head to his place.
I just had a realization that if they got married Heather would be a step mom xD
Casus is quiet for a moment.
“I’m not sure…wait, yes! I can see a dry bush by itself I remember passing. I think it’s the same one, the shape is familiar.”
Eer: “It’s probably fine,” she groans.
“Well, not quite.” They chuckle with a faint blush after Eve kisses them. “A good try, though. Meiste–much unlike the Force–is pretty conscious.”
Yessei drags Anansi along, who asks Yessei repeatedly what she signed up for.
Yessei: “You’ll be fine.” She pats Anansi’s back.
yk kinda silly tho
wait no Heather would be a step great-grandma also
Pissy goes and kills a deer and cuts up deer steaks and roasts them on a fire. He brings Eer one and he eats two. “I am starving.”
“From your world, right? Do you think she’s lost?” Tina wonders.“If we can get you back then maybe you can return to wherever this is?”

Jordane beams. “So, you know about the Force then.”
“Good to know they’ve got some culture here,” Gio jokes and puts an arm around Lockie shoulders… Also, Patrick is now mysteriously missing
.
Haha, and back to a really nice room that looks more like a bachelor’s apartment.
“I’m still jealous. You get such better rooms than cheerleaders.” Heather pouts.
It’s got basic furnishings, but much more space.
Eer: “Yeah that’s fair,” she mumbles, rolling over on her mattress.
Hota: “Of which there’s plenty,” they assure Gio. “Indeed, I’ve heard there are plans to translate Star Wars into Zispoel. But… I watched it in English–it really helped.” They grin. “Well, can I show you around? Michelle knows her way around pretty well, of course, but I can take us down the street or something?”
Oop where’s he off to ![]()
Yessei blinks: “No, this is quite a bit more than Heather’s place.”
Anansi laughs. “So glad I own my own house.”
Lol down the street xD don’t get wild now Hota
.
Michelle: “please, help
. I mainly just know how to get to the academic places… I’ll bore them to death
.”
Lockie rubs her friend’s back.
Jordane looks around. “Where’s my boyfriend?”
To find a snack
.
Heather: “I live in a closet compared to this
.”
Eric:“I have two roommates. Heather lives by herself.
” He heads to the kitchen.
“Yeah,” Casus says. “I think I forgot to close the portal so she could’ve found the portal and walked into it. And I also think I do remember the path I took so I can retrace it.”
“Ooo! That’s a good plan! Alright, next move… You think you’re ready to wake now?”
“Yeah,” Casus says.
“Why are you grumpy?”
Tina counts them down to waking up…
Yk I forgot that canonically, post-canon Hota has to wear an eyepatch
Hota: “Well, I’m no better.” They chuckle before Jordane speaks. “Mmm? I think I can find him. He can’t have gone far.”
Yessei: “That’s also true,” Yessei admits.
Anansi’s drifting around the room, staring at things.
Kitchen maybe? ![]()
