Hello, citizens of Etraya.

I hope you are making yourselves at home.

Thank you for participating in our bonding activities during the previous mission. Your willingness to get to know one another is admirable and you should all give yourselves a pat on the back for a job well done. We hope you've come away with both the satisfaction of a job well done and maybe a new friend.

Your second mission will be a team exercise and will begin in four days.

You will enter the Labyrinth that has appeared outside of the city dome. As the Labyrinth is meant to be a challenge one person cannot overtake alone, some of you may find that your extraordinary abilities are affected to some degree, ensuring you will not fly through the challenge in a wink. Teamwork is necessary and the Labyrinth itself will be making sure everyone is working together.

If you have brought any animal companions with you, you may choose to bring them into the Labyrinth or leave them in my care. Please note for the duration of the mission, the city will not be inhabitable by those who require oxygen to breathe. Please do not leave any companions behind in apartment buildings.

If you have any questions, please ask them now.

Thank you,
Aurora

Normal balloons.

Man, remind me to show you IT one day.
It'll change your mind on balloons for sure.

But until then, I'll consider a mission featuring balloons. Maybe one where we have to make animals out of them. I think that'd be fun.

( literally NEVER going to remind him but okaaaaay. )

Don't get too carried away with the planning stage. You'd still need to win the maze first. And there's always a chance that, even if we're allowed to pitch an idea, Aurora could still dismiss it.

Nothing here's been "fun" so far, and I don't really expect that to change.

[ Don't worry, he will remember. ]

You really think she'd go back on her word? I feel like that'd be some damaging PR.

( squints at "pr", ultimately going off context clues. )

I think our perception doesn't really matter to her, she can apparently turn off the oxygen at any given time if we don't cooperate.

Huge red flag.
Major red flag.
Bigger than a flag, really.

I've never been to an Earth where someone can just Monty Burns the sun.
But then the Earth I went to wasn't exactly run by an A.I.

Not exactly, but close.

Listen, it's been nice talking about escape rooms and balloon phobias, but we only have four days to prepare for this. So I'm going to go do that now.

Oh, yeah.
I should probably go do that, too.


[ Even though he'll be done in a flash. Ha. ]

It was nice talking to you.
