A New Platform [Intro Post October]
On the Train
"Good morning passengers, it is day sixteen of the month of Horsehoe. Points have been updated on the system and new stock is available."
They have indeed and everyone can spend the morning shopping. Those who have been on the train a while will be expecting the second announcement that comes a few hours later.
"Shortly arriving into a designated void platform. Exit from void in ten, nine, eight, seven, six, five, four, three, two, one." A lurch and a jolt and they are soon surrounded by the fog that means they are at a platform. The first thing they may notice is that this platform is inside a basic shelter, making it warmer than the last couple at least.
As usual the first to leave the train notice nothing as they walk silently, rucksacks on their backs, towards the barriers. Adora, Alex Hashimoto, Catra, Cloud Strife, Elizabeth Midford, Feanor, Gerome, Gladiolus Amicitia, Glimmer, Ifrit, Isabella D’Oro, Maru, Nari Reno, Noctis Lucis Caelum, Prompto Argentum, Scorpia, Siobahn Chereshei, SXT-2, Tamamo-no-Mae, Tony Stark, Uta, Zidane Tribal
But on the platform itself there are many new faces. Wearing hoodies in all four colours in various states of confusion.
For New Passengers
At first all they can see is steam. Billowing around them as they come to their senses. The second thing they will notice is it is gloomy, even without the steam and fog. They are in a wooden building, open to the tracks on one side. It in a creaky shelter, cobwebs hang from the rafters and there is a peculiar whistle as wind finds its way through the cracks.
They are standing, in clothes that are not their own, styles they might not even recognise. They are carrying a rucksack on their 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 large and it holds nineteen figures all facing the tracks, all dressed in cargo trousers and hoodies. Both left and right the tracks disappear into the mist. Then there is a roaring sound and out of the fog arrives a train. Jet black with gold writing on the side. The Voidtrecker Express. There is a hiss as the doors slide open and out into the gloom step a selection of people. Some are human, some are less so. Most are wearing the same hoodie in one of the four colours, red, orange, blue and purple though some are sporting different clothes in a variety of styles.
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. If that is not enough, there are plenty of people on the platform now, to encourage them onto the train.
Indeed whereas usually there is plenty time for people to be met and brought slowly onto the train, the whistles blow a lot quicker this time, as if hurrying the passengers along.
Each ICP shows the same message and next to the screens there are stacks of leaflets written by those on the train, with further information. The store rooms have been restocked, with… teddy bear shaped luncheon meat being the main ingredient to be found. There are plenty of other staples.
A new carriage has been added, those that go to investigate will find a room full of lockers, designated as the Armoury. Even for passengers without weapons it is somewhere to secure possessions. There are instructions on how to use the lockers and enough for everyone to claim one.
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 over the noise of the hail stones to encourage any stragglers braving the snow and the doors slide shut. Veteran passengers know what will happen next, they may wish to brief their new companions.
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. Entry into Voidspace in ten, nine, eight, seven, six, five, four, three, two, one."
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.
Welcome to the Void!

[He grinned at her.] Put part of that was I lost all my memories so I don't remember things from when I was alive.
no subject
no subject
How did you lose your memories?
no subject
I... don't remember the process, really. I was traveling to the surface, away from home, and encountered a couple of people. [And had a fight.] Before I knew what was happening I woke up in the deep underground and all my memories were taken away.
[She gives a small chuckle.] The fact that I remember that is a pretty good sign that I still have all of mine.
[So that's nice.]
no subject
[It sounded like she did remember though, so that was good!]
no subject
[On the other hand, that makes sense. How else would you explain the number of humans around -- a species that did not exist for 12,000 years?]
It was the same world, then.
Um... [Suddenly, she feels very nervous about the answer to the next question...] ...this isn't heaven... is it?
no subject
[Sort of...]
no subject
Are we dead?
[I mean, if anybody else would know...]
no subject
no subject
Almost got splatted permanently though. Almost, but I didn't.
Can humans come back to life?
no subject
[So he supposes they do!] Did you come alive again then?
no subject
[Her eyes look at him expectantly, prying whether or not the idea of a spawn point made sense to the boy.]
no subject
What's a spawn point? [And what's the difference between being dead and dead dead. Was one like where you died and went to the heavens and the other when you died and just woke up in a suitcase?
He's a bit confused.]
no subject
[Her tone changes and she leans forward with a warm smile.]
A spawn point is where a soul can get a new body. When I get splatted my soul would go to the spawn point and come back to life.
[She sighs.] If there is no spawn point though, if I were to die I wouldn't come back. [So, dead dead.]
no subject
[He nodded, as if that made complete sense. Which is does, to him at least.
People come back in the suitcases so that was a spawn point and so if she died, even if that would be bad and scary she would come back there.]
no subject
[She was following up until then, aand then she lost it with that big reveal.]
no subject
no subject
Do they wake up totally fine? No hurts or scrapes or anything missing?
no subject
no subject
[She's pretty sure being a vampire and then becoming not-vampire was a good thing.]
no subject
no subject
Mmm... so maybe not so good. [But it cured his vampirism? That didn't sound inherently malevolent.]
What about you? Would you go back to... what you were before you became a weapon?
[She's not sure why she's asking. Passing curiosity, perhaps.]
no subject
[He has absolutely no idea how it works.]
no subject
I don't think... I want to risk you trying. [She gives a small chuckle and offers him a smile.] Even though we just met. I like you as you are right now.
no subject
[So he's glad they agree on that!] I don't know if I died again if I'd forget everything again and I don't want to do that!
[He likes all his friends!]
