A new platform [intro post September]
For those on the train
“Good morning passengers, it is day one of the month of Bassoon.” The train announces the morning the month changes. It seems the train counts months in days of thirty. Team Points have been updated on the system.
The day continues as most days do, chores, eating, getting ready for another day. But those who suspect that a change of month may bring something else are correct. It is only an hour or two later that there is another announcement.
“Shortly arriving into a designated void platform. Exit from void imminent.”
By now they should know to hold on as the train jerks and jolts. There is only fog outside the windows but the train soon comes to a stop. The doors hiss open.
As they exit into the fog they may notice Evie exiting from the luggage carriage door. Much like Hibiki the last time they were on a platform. She leaves the train, backpack on her back as she walks through the station. She heads no call, reacts to no words and cannot be stopped as she walks to the ticket barrier and disappears through it.
Strange. But even stranger still is that there on the platform that whole time is Evie. Dressed in purple, backpack on back, with her are others. Waiting for the train.
For new arrivals
At first all they can see if steam. Billowing around them as they come to their senses. They are standing, in clothes that are not their own, styles they might not even recognise. They are carrying a rucksack on your back. For a moment it seems to just be them, alone in the white haze but then the steam begins to fade and they realise they aren’t alone.
The platform is not very large, but it hold twelve figures all facing the tracks, all wearing similar clothing. The tracks stretch left and right into steam, or perhaps fog. Nothing can be seen to either side. There is a wall around the platform and the only entrance is a ticket barrier. It cannot be open, nor do there seem to be any staff.
What there is, is a train. Jet black and gleaming where it stands on the rails.Voidtrecker Express is emblazoned in the engine in gold. There is a hiss as the doors slide open.
Out step a selection of people, some less human than others, wearing clothes just like those worn by those on the platform.
The Train
The doors hiss open. Those from the train may encourage those on the platform to board. It’s not like there is anywhere else to go and even if there was, you feel a pull. A need to board, a feeling that staying on the platform would not be a good thing.
Once on board there is lots to explore. Passengers both old and new will hopefully be delighted to see the boredom of this train journey is somewhat alleviated by the introduction of a game carriage. Plenty of games, both familiar and new to play with your new travelling companions.
Each ICP shows the same message. If Red team go and look they will find a box in the luggage compartment that contains their prize. A dralite themed cake lolly each. There are enough for the new members of Red team too, share in your teams previous success!
The food stores have been topped up with new fresh food. Salmon has taken over as the primary ingredient of choice. Hopefully everyone likes fish!
New passengers will find their tickets allow them into their cabins. They may need to negotiate for beds, especially if they want a top bunk!
Room is tight but there are storage cubbies at the head of each bed, beds fold up and the bottom bunks double as benches for the small table. There is storage under those benches and you will hopefully find a pillow for your bed if it has not been nabbed by a roommate, there are also spare blankets for if it gets cold.
Departure
A second horn sounds to encourage any stragglers and the doors slide shut. For those who boarded two weeks ago they will know what is coming next.
The train sets off, the fog obscuring the view as it picks up speed.
"Welcome aboard, passengers of the Voidtrecker Express.” A female-coded artificial sounding voice echoes throughout the train. "Please take the time to read the passenger information displayed on the Information and Communication points and familiarise yourself with the layout and emergency exits."
The train begins to tilt, leaving the ground and rising up into the fog filled sky.
"Entrance into Voidspace imminent. New passengers are advised to remain seated."
Hopefully someone warns you that you really want to heed that warning because a moment later there is a shudder, a jolt, a lurch to the left. A flash of light, colourful and blinding.
As quick as it happens it is done. The train seems to steady. The fog from the windows is gone now, replaced with a kaleidoscope of ever changing colours.

... Wait, legs? She halts and checks herself over as well as she can. Still eight? Yeah, haven't lost any legs overnight. She shrugs at Eva. ]
no subject
You don't know?
[Tthat's what she's taking the shrug as at any rate.] Most spiders from my world have six legs.
[Even the tiny non-pokemon spiders have six legs!]
no subject
She turns properly, then sketches out a small spider with eight legs in silk on the ground. 'Spider'. Then sketches an arrow to herself, and writes 'Ede Saine' out carefully. Education! ]
no subject
I see. It's nice to meet you, Ede-san.
[Here, have a very Japanese-like bow, while Eva hopes Ede is the last name. It looks like something from Kanto at the very least...?] I'm Eva, and this is Princess.
[She motions to the clefairy.]
no subject
Anddd a bow to the pink thing. Pretty sure she's been planning to eat Princess, but sometimes the monster gives her a Look and honestly she's not sure if she could take the fuzzball in a fight. Aren't small, cute mons the ones that get really OP stats? And they don't care about type matchups or anything? Yeah, she's not risking it. ]
no subject
Eva, none the wiser to her pokemon's antics (or wholly confident in his ability to take care of himself) or Kumoko's thoughts, simply beams.
Though it does cross her mind that it might be easier of Ede had a notebook or whiteboard to write with, but then it's dismissed because A/ it's rude and B/ Ede has no hands.
That said, Ede's bow seems natural so, maybe?] You're from a culture where bowing is common?
gdit there's the perfect panel for this and I didn't icon it.
Japan!
no subject
Wait. Japan???]
Stark-san's world then?
[TONY SHE HAS QUESTIONS.]
no subject
no there's probably just a million earths for some reason
Sorry for the slow :(
[She wants more Arkeas. More of her kind of people. As fun as learning about other worlds is... She's starting to feel very alone in the multiverse.] Are you being treated well by everyone else, Ede-san?
[Brb adopting you even if it is late.]
