"Ours doesn't have a name, sorry."

"It's my understanding that most don't know there are other Earths. Did yours?"

Headshake.

She nods. "I'm afraid we don't have much of a direct solution to the problem, here; we've only found out about alternate Earths due to this one tinker's technology and he is now in jail, and it's unclear how much his access to Earth Aleph was intentional versus a malfunction of his usual less grand designs."

"I'm sorry. But in the meantime we'll try to offer you as much comfort as we can. Is there anything in particular you two want or need?"

Permalink

The two glance at each other. "Nothing...special, I don't think. Books. Food. Clothing."

Permalink

"Those can definitely be arranged. Would you prefer to room together or separately?"

Permalink

"Together."

She types some things into her computer. "That'll be arranged. I'll have someone show you a room and then around the building and the city if you'd like. I'd also like you to consider joining the Protectorate, even if temporarily."

"...We'd need a lot more information first."

Permalink

"Yes, of course, we'll provide you with all information you might want. I just wanted you to know that this was a relationship we'd be interested in pursuing."

Permalink

"Are there any direct questions you want to ask right now, or should I send you the informational pamphlet?"

Permalink

"The informational pamphlet would be good."

Permalink

"Very well. Is there anything else you'd like to discuss?"

Permalink

 

"Can you advise us on what would be a good way to look into the progress of miscellaneous civil rights movements since nineteen-eighty?"

Permalink

"You should find information on that on the internet. Your room will have a computer, Magnet Master can tell you where to find that."

Permalink

"Okay. Thank you."

Permalink

Magnet Master is waiting for them outside.

"So, guess who got assigned tour guide?"

Permalink

Deadpan: "Armsmaster."

Permalink

"You would be begging for the sweet release of death before the day was out." Pause. "Twenty bucks says I never said that."

Permalink

"Aww, you don't need to bribe us."

Permalink

Chuckle. "Okay, so first thing I should take you to your rooms so you know where to crash." Elevatorwards. "Also Piggot said something about the internet?"

Permalink

"We want to know how far Civil Rights have progressed since nineteen eighty."
