"I'm an alternate universe version of Alan?  He who just scrambled over the back of a bench and ran into the other person he seems to like?  I'm apologizing for the mess he's gotten into."

[Sl4cker]

"I was referring to your previous statement, but nonetheless the information you have given me is quite interesting."

[Lermfish]

FAFNiR crosses her arms. "I do not believe your classifications can apply to me. I am the Cactus Company's Combat Model Number 002 "FAFNiR" version one point three six."

"That's not a company nor a class that I'm familiar with. Combat model, huh? You don't seem that impressive to me. Maybe we can test your abilities against one of my Battleroids? I'd scan you, but I'm still waiting for the scan on the red-head here to finish."

Alanis sighs.

"Ladies, robots, compare e-peens later, please."

"Hey. Shut up."

[Sl4cker]

For a moment, once could almost swear there was an iota of emotion in FAFNiR's eyes. "What are the capabilities of these Battleroids, Miss?"

[TheBiggerFish]

"I was referring to your previous statement, but nonetheless the information you have given me is quite interesting."

"Ah."

[Lermfish]

For a moment, once could almost swear there was an iota of emotion in FAFNiR's eyes. "What are the capabilities of these Battleroids, Miss?"

"It depends on the 'roid." Logica rubbed her chin for a moment. "I could use the Aeroserin XC550. I need to get actual test data on the 500 series anyway. But this cafe doesn't leave much room for flying things...or combat in general."

[Sl4cker]

"I believe a man mentioned there were training facilities somewhere around this area. Perhaps we could use it for our duel?"

[Lermfish]

"I believe a man mentioned there were training facilities somewhere around this area. Perhaps we could use it four our duel?"

Gideon: MA'AM. YOU CURRENTLY DO NOT HAVE ACCESS TO YOUR QUANTUM STORAGE.

"What?! How the hell do I lack access to my bots?!"

Gideon: IT SEEMS THAT THIS DIMENSION IS CAUSING THE FUNCTIONALITY OF YOUR DEVICE TO MALFUNCTION. RUNNING A SYSTEMS TEST.

Gideon: FULL SYSTEMS CHECK COMPLETE. IT APPEARS THAT QUANTUM FUNCTIONS ARE OPERATING AT 20%.

"Hey you. FAFNiR. I don't like it when the things I made malfunction so...why don't you tell me what the deal with this place is?"

[TheBiggerFish]

"It's a HUB.  Everything's twisted all together."

[Sanure]

"Oh? you thought I was fighting? No, dear, I do not fight. I hunt. But that's besides the point. Yuri, did my order come in?"

[Sl4cker]

"I do not have any information on the Endless City that you do not already know, Miss, other than perhaps, as Miss Alanis has implied, this area may intersect with other dimensions. Although this idea explains the multi-universal travelers, it also may come with the side-effect of your "Quantum Storage" malfunctioning."

"Endless City? Gideon-"

Gideon: DATABANK SHOWS 9,343 REFERENCES TO 'ENDLESS CITY'.

"Give me the most recent."

Gideon: UNABLE TO COMPLY; INTEGRITY COMPROMISED. FETCHING EARLIEST AVAILABLE LOG.

> salvaging . . . 42% recovered.

Gideon: ACCORDING TO THIS DATABIT, ENDLESS CITY IS A PLACE THAT ACTS AS A HUB OF SORTS, CONNECTING DIFFERENT UNIVERSES AND REALITIES, EVEN AS FAR AS MULTIPLE PERSONS IN DIFFERENT DIMENSIONS OR UNIVERSES.

"So, I was wrong. There are other verses out there, and I'm from one of what could be hundreds. Gideon, create a new entry log: Endless City." Finally, Logica felt like she was making some progress. "From now on, any new scans or information are to be automatically put in the 'Endless City' folder. Even if we've already scanned it elsewhere."

Gideon: ENTRY SAVED. AUTO-LOG PROTOCOL SET TO: ENDLESS CITY WITH OVERWRITE PERMISSIONS GRANTED.

"It's a HUB.  Everything's twisted all together."

"I take it you're 'Miss Alanis'?"

[TheBiggerFish]

"That would be an honorific and a name that I respond to, yes."

[Lermfish]

"That would be an honorific and a name that I respond to, yes."

"Oh. Okay. I'm Logica. You can throw a 'Miss' before that if you're into the formal thing. I don't care either way. So, how much do you know about Endless City? Anything more than what FAFNiR told me?"

[TheBiggerFish]

"No more than you do."
