[ It's a pretty ordinary night, isn't it - ?

But maybe you're waiting for someone . . . ]

. . . [Oh.

Medusa is standing right outside the door when Intensity comes out of the bathroom.]

Welcome home...

Everyone make it back to the glass prison in one piece?

... If you mean Imeeji, then I believe the only ones unaccounted for were you and your cohorts.

[He's not gonna block your way out, but he will follow you around for a bit.]

May I get you anything? Water, perhaps?

[He's not leaving the dorm. He just sits down immediately and starts texting people]

Whatever.

... I'll take that as a yes, then.

[He's gonna excuse himself to the lobby kitchen for a moment... And he returns about 15 minutes later with a fresh glass of water. With ice. And even a straw.

How's Intensity holding up?]

[Intensity has a crazed look in his eye that means distinctly "not okay".

But if you leave him alone for 15 minutes - then he will already be elbow deep in work]

Here is your water, sir.

[... How does Intensity react?]

[He glances at it.

But then goes back to furiously writing down notes.

And cursing.

Lots and lots of under his breath cursing]

[... No reaction.]

... Intensity?

[He's going to try and steal a glance of those notes while he's still hovering nearby.]

[They mostly detail the abilities of a demon with lightning and metal controlling powers.

And that sometimes he head splits open and he's a demon deer.

And that he loves his wife.

Yep.

All that]

. . .

[He just... Keeps watching Intensity. Waiting for some sort of opening to speak.]

[Are you staring at him, Medusa?]

What?

[No, just being patient.]

... What happened to you out there...? I was worried when you didn't make it back home earlier.

I was held up on business.

What sort of buisness? Zephyr informed me that you were a fugitive for some time.

Oh that? I got thrown in jail because I didn't believe enough in Heaven.

[Well, that gets his interest.]

Oh? I was under the impression Heaven ceased to exist!

What is that place like, then?

See. You would have also be thrown in jail.

And it uses Heaven's technology anyway so is it really any different than from going to Heaven.

... Hm... So it's forbidden knowledge, then? Knowing that Heaven exists?

Not at all.

It's powered by faith and belief. So it would cease to exist if people didn't know about it.

Hm...

[He sounds a little confused.]

Then you were trespassing?

If I had made it there, yes. I would have been trespassing.

But as it stood, I was caught trying to escape this production. And that's why I was thrown in jail.

I see...

[. . .]

Does this adventure have anything to do with the strange crater in Honmaji Sakura Park?

The what now?

[Look he hasn't been to Tokyo-F in a while]

Oh... Yes.

[Completely understandable, he shall explain.]

There's a large crater in Honmaji Sakura Park. I'm not sure how, but technology and unit powers stop working while you're in the vicinity. Apperently, this was the reason we all went to Hell proper for a week, but... How it happened, I cannot say.
