[With the arrival of Bill the Lizard on the scene, Souji has been considering some important things. Naturally, he takes to the network to poll the other residents.]

Bill's new, isn't he? Where do you think they come from?

[He adjusts his glasses, which he is actually wearing for once. They just make him feel more sexy focused somehow.]

Speaking of them... Has anyone seen the Duchess?

[...]

Did she take the sword with her?

[Those who know him can probably hear in his tone that he's legitimately worried about this. It doesn't show on his face, though.]

Even if we can't change the past, I don't think any future could be worse than the one we were told about...

'Zactly. But if we can't prevent it, 'tleast we kin have a reset button.

'Course I dunno 'f it'll even work.

[audio]

[eatsyourscience]

It's better than not trying at all.

[audio]

[builditstrong]

Yeah. 'S what I figgered. I jus' haven't wanted t'tell anyone 'bout it an' get their hopes up or nothin'.

[audio]

[eatsyourscience]

Mm. That makes sense.

Did you find some kind of plans for it?

[audio]

[builditstrong]

Sorta. After all that end o' th' year stuff happened, I started askin' the closet for everythin' it could send 'bout th' Bastion. An', well, never sent anythin' to specific, but I was able t'piece 'nuff of it t'gether. That an' addin' some this-an-that from other worlds.

So...kinda jus' been throwin' stuff at a wall an' seein' what sticks.

[eatsyourscience]

I wonder if the library might have anything from your world that talks about it.

[audio]

[builditstrong]

I ain't seen anything. I been lookin', though not all that hard.

[audio]

[eatsyourscience]

I'll see what I can find, too. Maybe even something from another world will help.

[audio]

[builditstrong]

I been piecin' things together from diff'ernt worlds already, but every bit helps. Diff'ernt places got diff'ernt methods fer this sorta thing.

[audio]

[eatsyourscience]

Yeah. I guess there's the possibility it'll make things more complicated, but it's worth a try.

[audio]

[builditstrong]

'Zactly. But I'm pretty good at piecin' things t'gether.

[audio]

[eatsyourscience]

Yeah. I can believe that. I'll let you know if I find anything worth sharing.

[audio]

[builditstrong]

Thanks. An' I'll keep ya updated.
