Nightengale tugs Thorn over, then stands outside the chalk-marked fighting area and watches until the match ends.

Adder loses, but she makes them work for it!

After they finally get her pinned and conceding defeat, they let go and she hops back up, beaming. Sweaty, laughing hugs are exchanged. 

Adder turns. Lights up. She crosses to them and kisses Nightengale on the lips.

"Missed you too. Adder, this is Thorn. Just met her up in the soundcave. She's...not from these parts. Not from this world, it seems."

Adder's gaze sharpens. "Is that possible?" 

Permalink

"There's something strange here, that's for sure. She fell out of midair. Appeared from nowhere."

Liath (There's only one person in this body who appreciates combat sports this much) smiles confidently and offers her hand to shake. "Liath and five others, here, mostly Chaotic. We go by Thorn as a group. Pleased to see you fight, Adder; these two have sung me your praises."

"Aww. Do you fight too?" 

Permalink

"No, not exactly." Pause. "I'm into hitting people, not so much the 'getting hit' part."

"Oh. I see. ...Well. You're interested in staying down here? You thinking a few nights while you get your feet under you, or longer?"

"Depends on wether I can earn my keep, I think. I'm - it's probably most accurate to call me a hypnotherapist? All practical experience, no licence or anything. I was studying computer science but I'm honestly not that good at it."

"Hypno... Hmm. Those aren't two words I'm used to hearing together! Fascinating. And, sure, could well be of use here."

"What's your world's computer science like? Dabbled a little in that myself." 

Permalink

"It's pretty ubiquitous. Do you have the internet?"

Permalink

"Define 'internet'? I'd say we've got several. One up on the Surface, and a few networks down here."

"Worldwide network of computers? Goes everywhere? I guess it makes sense you'd have multiple."
