[Mafia] The Aurora Project - [END]

[Kennifer]

"Cold weather aside, the views are quite nice."

[MadameButterflyKnife]

..Yeah, I've never seen anyone like you assholes in Helium City. Where the fuck are you people from.

[awe921]

"... oh." Russell glanced at Nintendo.
"I think I may or may not have played one of your games."

[PointMaid]

Technically? I'm from Texas.

...She certainly doesn't look like any Texan in 2021.

[door-kun]

"From Japan, why'd ya ask?"

[Dookie]

"By the way, my name is Nintendo. I'm the greatest producer of video games there is!"

”…Do I know you? You seem famous.”

[MadameButterflyKnife]

Yeah, you're lying. Japan doesn't exist anymore. And Texas too! Probably. I dunno, I'm not a fucking geographer.

[Cassie]

”…Do I know you? You seem famous.”

"Nintendo's one of the big videogame companies of this world, so you got that right, fella!" He says with a smile and a sip of warm coffee.

[Oggy123]

"Famous? Of course i'm famous! I'm the one who made Mario, Zelda, things like that! Nice to meet you. I'm from Japan, by the way."

[Caret]

"I'm mostly a warrior, though I am currently studying cloth-making and paragliding. This mountaintop would be perfect place to go for a quick glide, although I don't have my paraglider on hand. Besides, that old thing's literally made of bedsheets, so I doubt it'll support me nowadays."

[Kennifer]

"I'm guessing we come from different worlds then... Voi, was it? At any rate, I'm from California."

[Magolor]

The Void. I'm sure most of you don't know what it is.

[PointMaid]

..,Maybe Texas didn't exist for a while and they brought it back? I'm not a historian either. But I know where I was raised. Even though the Hesperian Empire would rather I had spent my time there.

[MadameButterflyKnife]

I've never heard of "Mario" or "Zelda" or that shit, dumbass. I just know you're claiming to be some random corp that apparently everyone but me's heard of.

[Caret]

"I'm from the Kanto region. It's a pretty cool place, though I don't spent a lot of time there nowadays. I'm usually busy with other things!" Bow lets out a forced giggle.

[awe921]

"... I'm from Japan." Russell spoke up once again.
"..... I think... I heard about some of this 'Mario' and 'Zelda' games."
"But... I don't think there's any games in here. So I think this knowledge is useless."

[Dookie]

“Well, I live in Orlando, Florida. That probably means nothing, considering we're from different worlds.”

She sighs.

“So where are we staying? Some type of lodging, I hope?”

[Despair's Archon of Memes]

I... I'm originally from the moon and now live in Gensokyo... It's a long story. Thanks to an even LONGER story, I'm now a commander/leader/whatever of the Time Cops, a multiversal pandimensional police/security department that ensures the timeline's stability.

[awe921]

Russell gives a confused look. Things are shaping up way beyond his paygrade already.
He's 14, even... I wonder how he even landed the job in the first place.
Truly, some bewildering circumstances.

[Caret]

"Also, Nintendo sounds familiar to me, but not "Mario" and "Zelda". I wonder why that could be."

[MadameButterflyKnife]

Voi looks to Reisen. So you're some kinda time pig? Fuck that.

[Despair's Archon of Memes]

...
Reisen just sighs, as if tired by this shit already.
...Where's Nikei?

[Kennifer]

"I've definitely heard of Texas, Florida, and Japan. Kanto sounds familiar too, as does Gesokyo. I know someone from Gensokyo actually. Her name is Cirno. She's..." Holly pauses trying to think of a polite way to phrase this. "...Unique."

Another slight pause.

"And yes, I've heard of those Nintendo games as well."

[Caret]

Bow slightly tenses up upon hearing Voi addressing Reisen as "time pig" . Why did Voi have to remind Bow of her trainer out of all things?

"'Time pig'? What do you even have against time travelers? My trainer is a time traveler!"

Awkward pause.

"...It's a long story. I don't want to talk about it right now, so don't ask."

[Despair's Archon of Memes]

"I've definitely heard of Texas, Florida, and Japan. Kanto sounds familiar too, as does Gesokyo. I know someone from Gensokyo actually. Her name is Cirno. She's..." Holly pauses trying to think of a polite way to phrase this. "...Unique."

Another slight pause.

"And yes, I've heard of those Nintendo games as well."

So it's true... Gensokyo IS interacting with the Outside World... And yeah. I know Cirno, too. ...Is she little with ice powers and also... kind of an idiot?
