...Serious? But yeah, I know what ya mean. Sometimes this all feels like some kinda crazy science fiction story. Or a dream.

[ Sometimes, more like a nightmare. ]

They probably keep all the good space junk for themselves. Y'know, like the lasers and jet packs.

Actually, Eddie and Richie were both on a space station before this, right? So maybe we really will get a piece of that action.

Along with the manual for the Reset Room.

_{[One of many secrets the natives either don't know enough about, or don't trust them enough to tell about. The random items showing up are weird at any rate.]}

That's right, Eddie told me about that. I think I would've preferred to go there and see stars and float around.

_{[... The good kind of zero g floating, not the bad killer clown variety.]}

[justbeingknife]

Yeah. Although...

I guess the stars around here ain't so bad.

[ They were kind of nice, actually, and you could see them without having to drive outside the city to escape all the light pollution. The exact opposite of Tokyo. ]

[waystation]

That's true. I didn't think much about stuff like that in New York.

<sub>[Before his life flipped upside down.

He'd thought something similar in Mid-World, how bright the stars had been without the lights of the city to compete with, how quiet and still it was without a single humming telephone pole.]</sub>
