-Missy interrupts the tense silence-

-with repeated thumps against the kitchen door, trying to get in- Why do these things not have hands!?

-As soon as Hal opened the door, he was met face-to-face with a half-human sized robot-

-that was flying at his face-

-this was poor timing, it was probably trying to make another knock-

-and now you might be tackled, Hal-

-by a flying piece of metal with yellow goldish paint flying at head-height-

-Thwack, one turian smacked into by robot-

-Gracia gave a shout of alarm-

What if there’s no better word than just not saying anything?

-Missy doesn't even notice for a moment, being on the other side of the door- I'm finally free! Wait- I didn't hit wood... but I did hit something...

-it turns around in the air, and looks at the fallen Turian- Oh shit. Roadkill.

Wait, wait- is it dead? -looks at Gracia- Because that was a complete accident, I swear!

-looks back at Fallen Hal- Ahh- my producers are gonna be mad if I go into a manslaughter court...

-She has a pretty chipper voice... and incredibly fast talker, like she's hyper-

I didn't know the door was going to open from the other side! I don't have hands!

I just have lasers. They go pew-pew!

I'd show you, but I don't want vandalism on top of assault.

(Leos is still trying to build... whatever it is he's building outside the house. How has he been doing this for three days straight?)


(Meanwhile, Michael is playing lookout on the roof.)

-Missy was wandering around the house, before finding the door to the roof- Another door? This place has too many analogue doors, I swear!

-shakes her 'head'/entire body for a moment, before flying down outside, and up around to the roof- Hey! Listen! Dude! -she seems to be addressing you, Michael- Open that door over there, I need to find out what's on the other side.

Outside (Aichi)

-Aichi has been walking around outside again. It seems he's not nervous about being outside anymore like he was when he first arrived. He then spots Leos working on his machine.-

"Oh, it's Leos. He's working on that thing still..."

-He approaches Leos.-

"Hello, Leos! Have you made any more progress?"

(Michael does a Double Take on the robo-Missy before looking back at the door)

Uh, you want me to... what?


(Leos looks up with a welding mask attached to his face)

Hmmm? (He lifts said welding mask up) Oh, hey, Aichi! Yeah, I asked Sthesia about whether there were any forms of interstellar tech in any of the previous eras, and she found something I could, well, attempt to replicate.

(Interstellar tech? Isn't just a ridiculously big ring? And come to think of it, where's Sthesia?)

Does it look like I have hands? I can't open doors, so I need you to open that door over there for me. I couldn't get through.

Outside (Aichi)

-Interstellar tech? Aichi's quite curious about this thing... He's not entirely sure what a giant ring like this would do... A gate of some kind? Wasn't that something you usually heard about in science-fiction or something?-

"So this thing is from some point in your world's history?"

-He's kind of curious where Sthesia is. Wasn't she with Leos the last time Aichi saw him working on it?-

"What's Sthesia doing? I remember she was with you when you were working on this before..."

Really? No hands?

(It was quite obvious to Michael that this robot, despite being friendly, like Lune, was rather non-humanoid in design. And possibly a little strange. His facial expression contorted into a face of confusion and curiosity.)

...Your creator didn't think their designs through, did they?


Well, technically she never was with me, but you know, holograms. She's basically sorting out things with Themis on her end, so... hopefully this'll work...

"R-Right, of course... So you need her to finish sorting things out before you can try this?"

Well, buzzer-bots are only designed to float towards people and blast them with lasers. So in terms of design purpose, these are actually quite annoying to fight, especially since they're never alone.

But... this is just a back-up body for me. I usually have a hard-light hologram body. That does have hands!

Though, yes I am sort of regretting choosing Buzzers as my back-up bodies...

I, uh... Right. Okay, then.

(Michael's just gonna head down to the door, this is great! What possible treasures could be behind this door—

It's just a staircase there, Missy.)


Hope so.

(Oh, hey, the ring has started making noises. It's this weird whirring noise, intermittently interrupting with a full clunking, before starting up again. It's doing this for quite a bit. One... two... three... four... five... six... seven. ...Oh, hey, it's making a different noise now— WHAT THE JEEBS, IS IT EXPLODING?!)

-flies through- Al right good! -and then immediately flies back out-

So I was right about that door I couldn't open leading up here!

-looks at Michael- By the way, what are you doing hanging around on a roof?

Uh... sentry duty. What about you?


(The rising plume of what looks like water reaches up into the sky, and then collapses back into the ring. Now, the McGyver'd ring looks like it's full of shimmering water. It's actually rather mesmerising.)

(And Leos is just looking at it dumbstruck, before saying in a mix of a joy and shock) I can't believe I got that thing to work.

Exploring. I only got here yesterday!

I still think I was kidnapped... are you the kidnapper? Or do you work for them?

Careful, I have lasers. Pew-pew. -she has a very chipper voice-

Outside "'(Aichi)'''

-Aichi's absolutely amazed by the strange gate-like device. He's definitely mesmerized.-

"Wow... It looks a lot like water..."

-He's almost tempted to stick his hand in it...-

"What is this thing?"

(Leos thinks back on its technical history.)

I think it's called a Stargate. They started getting used 50 years after the War of Misunderstanding happened in 2314 of the Anno Domini era, the last recorded instance of Celestial Being, if I'm right. Apparently, it was partially based on the 00 Quan[T] which had the rumoured ability to travel through wormholes under its own power.

I think they were used throughout the galaxy until humanity got reset. Again.

(Suddenly, a holographic image stutters into existence, projected from the far side "chevron.") ...Leos? Is the gate active? Did it work?


Yeah, I don't think I had anything to do with that. And I don't think anyone kidnapped you.

...Actually, they probably did, but I doubt we'd be able to find them.

Well- they really made it inconvenient. Choosing a time when I'm on stand-by in one of my Buzzers...

I can't even be beautiful. Like I normally am.

"Wow..."

"Ah! Is that you, Sthesia?"
