A New Platform [Intro Post November]
On the Train
The morning after the Halloween party passengers are once again woken by a familiar voice.
"Good morning passengers, it is day one of the month of Imagination. 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. But through the fog comes sunshine, causing patches where the light shines down to warm the concrete. Looking up passengers will not be able to see the sun through the fog, or much of the sky at all.
As usual the first to leave the train notice nothing as they walk silently, rucksacks on their backs, towards the barriers. Bryn Pendragon, Bucky Barnes, Colden Rollins, Elena, Fai D Flourite, Jiang Yanli, Juliette d'Aubigniy, Misa, Peter Parker, Samata Mahto, Satou Kuroneko, The Doctor, Tohru Mutou, Zuko, 10 Vigilant Gaze Purges The Horizon. They all walk silently and do not look back as they disappear through the barriers and into the fog beyond.
But on the platform itself there are 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 the thick fog, penetrated by beams of light. As their eyes adjust they will see they are on a platform, behind them are a set of barriers and in front of them is a single track.
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 five 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.
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 and Honey is the newest ingredient, jars of honey stock the shelves and the ICP's in the kitchen have recipe ideas for the month.
A new carriage has been added, those that go to investigate will find a small but function-able spa, complete with a small hot tub and even a steam room. It is a relaxing room with sun lamps and relaxing music or nature sounds available through the ICP. There are a couple of massage tables, with a course for how to give massages for those eager to learn.
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 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.

"But a lot of people here have it. I like to ask about it, I wish I could learn it. I haven't managed it yet. I'd want to know how to do it and then I'd want to mess with it. It seems like it has rules, like science."

Agumon smiled. "And my strength comes from Taichi! If only I could evolve here, though..."

"I'll do my best too!" Agumon said, pumping a fist.

Agumon looked sheepish, almost embarassed. "But you should see me as Greymon! I get a lot bigger!"
no subject
"How do you differ from Wormmon? Do you know who that is?" He'd met Ken before, he was curious.
my apologies if this makes no sense
He took a deep breath, before adding, "Sorry if that's confusing."
"I'm Agumon and he's Wormmon!" Agumon said, as if that explained everything.
"... They evolve differently," Taichi tried to add. "Like they all have different forms and abilities. There's usually three more levels after what Agumon and Wormmon are normally, but Wormmon needs to combine with another Digimon to reach two of his, and Agumon doesn't."
A beat. "And then there's Omegamon, who he does need another Chosen Child partner to become. There's levels beyond even that, but it gets a bit complicated, and we basically need a miracle for stuff like that to happen..."
You're good, he likes to play 20 questions.
He nodded seriously at Agumon, as though that was an acceptable answer, and why wouldn't it be? Humans were all unique after all.
"I suppose that makes sense. I'm not entirely clear on the evolution part, because I really don't know very much about digimon. I mean in the sense that I don't know how it works, but there is something to do with programming, right? I remember asking Ken about whether or not he could enhance his Wormmon through the programming."
He looked up after a moment. "What's a Chosen Child?"
no subject
"A Chosen Child is a person from my world with a Digimon partner," he said. "There used to only be eight of us, but now there are hundreds. My group was one of the first, and Ken's came after."
He scratched his head. "That'd be a better question for my friend Koushirou," he said. "I don't know much about programming or computer stuff at all. But... whenever I'm in danger, or there's a strong sense of emotion from me, Agumon evolves. At least, that's how it was at first. Nowadays we can reach all our forms at will... though some of the higher ones need this thing called a crest. It's a special power each one of us original eight are supposed to have. Mine is called 'Courage', and it's why Agumon doesn't need to combine with someone to evolve further than Greymon."
no subject
"That's interesting, so you got a crest and now he can do more than before. This must be like Eva and her pokemon." He said, considering. "I mean that she and them have to work and train together for them to get better."
no subject
Taichi scratched the side of his head. "I dunno what Pokemon are, but it's kind of like that. Agumon can't evolve if he's hungry, and if I try to force him or my emotions are too dark... bad things happen, and he evolves wrong."
Agumon shuddered. He didn't like being reminded of the times he'd become SkullGreymon, or the time he'd become that viral MetalGreymon.
no subject
"But that makes sense to me. You're partners, right?"
no subject
"That's right!" Agumon cried. "Wherever Taichi goes, I go! We'll always be together!"

It was nothing to stress about, it happened a lot, but maybe he should refocus.
"Oh yeah, so you're new here, welcome and all that." Senku said, putting his own mind back on track. "If you need anything, you can find me. I'm a real handy guy." He grinned.
no subject
"Thanks," he said. "And ah, thanks for listening to us. It made being here seem a bit more normal, if that makes sense."
no subject
"See you around." He grinned and left with a bit of a wave over his shoulder.
