Everybody, I got my rune back in the mail today! I can use it to send you places, so if anybody ever wants help going somewhere you can just ask me! Then school and work and the ice cream place won't seem so far away anymore, if you think they're far away. Oh, also I---ah......ah.....ah.........

[a long moment of silence.]

....ah-choo!!

[This is followed by the sound of someone dropping the telephone! and then failing to hang up. Oops?]

Action;everywhere

[Hello Mayfield. How's life today? Are you at home? At work? School? Going shopping, maybe? Wherever you are, there is now also a Viki. She might even have landed on you! Don't worry though, she's not hurt!

Feel free to run into her wherever, whenever, however! Hope she doesn't embarrass you.]

You don't hafta use it if'n ya don't want. I still use my "wife's" real last name when we ain't dealin' with th' drones.

[Then again, Viki seems to like it. Or at least goes along with it.]

[That catches Gat off guard.]

Huh. You ain't got a family at home?

... You never thought about it?

[That's ... kind of troubling to Gat. He can't help but wonder if Viki's an amnesiac sort.]

[There's a look of dawning realization on his face.]

... That ain't connected to how ya wound up in this here fire engine, is it? How ya said you sneezed an' wound up in here?

Frankly, if I had that kinda power I'd be glad if I got outta this place. What with how our captors love torturin' us.

Well—that's a fair point. Plenty'a folks I've met I wouldn't've ever seen back home.

But I ain't sure if it's worth th' kind of things they put us through. Like when that sorry Milkman got picked to be th' Chief of Police 'round here.

You wind up gettin' sent to a lotta bad places, I take it?

[Gat lightly taps his chin with the knuckle of an index finger as he ponders that pattern, propping that hand's arm up with the back of his other fist.]

So you're sayin', every time you sneeze, you risk windin' up in another world. An' every world you've been to, there's been some kinda war or conflict goin' on.

[Gat glances out a window, toward Mayfield proper.]

I know how that is.

Well—I don't wind up in other worlds just by sneezin'. But I've been around th' galaxy a time or two. Not entirely of my own will, either.

Well—first time 'round, it wasn't. Kind of a part-colonization effort, part-escape from a dyin' homeworld. Considerin' th' kind of world we wound up in, I can't say we were much better off.

Second time, that was when it wasn't of my own will. Still ain't sure what happened, and I ain't sure how it relates to where I came from. It's got its own problems, but—things don't seem as bleak. Even if I get some mighty bad cases of deja vu every now an' then.

Yeah. Better than where I've been before, at th' least.

[A beat.]

An' better than here, too.

That's true.

[Man, Viki's upbeat outlook never falters. Gat is kind of impressed by this.]

What about you? Out of all th' places you've been to, where wouldja rather go back to, if'n you had a choice in th' matter?
