Elatra smiles fondly.

"Or we could find another entire problem needing solved."

Permalink

"It could be worthwhile for Glint and I to look, at least. We can divide our attention with little penalty."

Permalink

"Yeah! I've got my own transit, too. And don't mind triaging problems to solve."

Permalink

"Reasonable enough, I suppose."

Permalink

"What's our plan once we find Zetsu?"

Permalink

"Kill him."

Permalink

"Kill, banish, imprison, or otherwise neutralize."

Permalink

"And then move on to Kabuto! Got a whole hit list. Very efficient."

Permalink

"One hopes."

Permalink

"I don't think there's likely to be gaps, at least, but Naraka obviously couldn't tell me about differences she didn't know about."

Permalink

"How much of a risk would additional reconnaissance be?"

Permalink

"I'm unsure. It depends on if he notices we're dimensionally foreign - he'll probably find that alarming but I'm not sure if that'll trigger him to hide or to escalate."

Permalink

"Neither is a particularly desirable outcome."

Permalink

"Not at all. It'd be a pain, either way."

Permalink

"We'll have to rely on your memory and Naraka's report, then."

Permalink

She nods. "With any luck it'll be enough."

Elsewhere, two gods prepare for an adventure.

Once they're ready, Glint hums, reaching out past Aurbis - and selecting a world at complete random, of course. Best way to do things.

She moves them elsewhere.

The new world is dusty. Not a desert, but dry. A thin layer of dirt is kicked up by a wind that blows through the low alley they find themselves in.

Permalink

"An alley again."

Permalink

"Apparently a bit of a theme! Usually you guys land pretty close to the other us's though, right?"

Permalink

"When there is an us to be had, yes."

Permalink

"I haven't been on many of these, and haven't found someone before - I'm excited! C'mon, let's go look around."

Permalink

"All right."

Outside the dusty alley is a dusty street, in a dusty small town. A weak orange sun burns faintly in the sky.

And a disc-shaped ship rises into the air in the distance and burns up towards it.
