So you think they turned you, somehow. Since it don't really seem like your boss's aesthetic.

Actually I'm guessing a hard blow to the head. But yeah, that was definitely not the Horde.

Would you remember if you were mind-controlled? Or would it just feel normal, I guess?

Do I look like a mind control expert? I don't know.

. . .I guess it'd be like when we get dumb effects here? Like, you don't know when it's happening, but when it's over you feel really stupid and awkward.

[She ultimately shrugs and gives a vague handwave, though.]

Princesses don't go for that kind of stuff, anyway.

Something must've happened, though, to just--give it all up.

You gonna take more to find out?

[Sounding exasperated –– with the situation, not Nemesis.]

I have been! This is the second one that's been like hey, guess what, you hang out with the Sparkle Squad now! But all I got after the first was stuff I already kind of knew and some shapeshifting spy I hired!

...Shapeshifter sounds like they'd be a pretty good spy, though. Like, a natural talent there.

...But yeah, guess it's kind of a crap shoot. The points'd start adding up, too.

Yeah. And the first was cool, now you're all in space.

Even though that's never come up before and Etheria, like, doesn't have the tech for it. So another mystery to solve, I guess.

Whoa... Uh, what was it like?

What?

. . .Space?

You said you were there, so...

Yeah. . . I don't know. Strange? I mean, Etheria didn't even have stars, and suddenly we were surrounded by them. And the ship was small, and weird –– like, featureless.

We were talking about wanting to go home.

Sounds like an alien abduction to me... You don't remember like missing time or new scars or nothing, do you?

––A what?

Being kidnapped by spacemen. That'd explain how you got to space without being an astronaut or nothing. ET came down in his phone booth and zapped you into space.

--That one's a movie about an alien, there was a ride about it, once.

[i mean technically yes alien abduction was involved but]

. . .There weren't any "aliens" on the ship. Just Etherians. So if that's how we got there, we must've kicked them out the door.

Taking over an alien ship, huh.

[Ugh badass]

...Not bad, I guess.

. . .I guess? I don't really get all that tech stuff, and Entrapta was there, but she's only got two extremes:

"Brilliant" and "everything explodes spectacularly".

Sounds like a lotta people here, honestly...

Yeah, sorta.

Usually we just gave her a room of her own to, like, make killer robots and wreck stuff, I think. But apparently this time she was in charge of the thing keeping us apart from space.

I'm not an expert or anything, but I'm pretty sure you're not supposed to be out in space.

Not if you like having air to breathe, no.

Though apparently exploding in the vacuum of space is just a myth for movies and TV. You'll actually just freeze to death 'cause space is cold.

...Anyways, you sure ended up with some weird friends.

[Amused, if anything]

They're not my––

. . .

[She sighs and drops it. No one believes her, anyway.]

Whatever, how do you know it's not your world that's weird?

[nope]

Nah, my world's super weird. That don't make your buddies less weird. There's plenty of weirdness to go around.

[She shrugs.]

Most of them were Princesses, it's a tainted sample.

So you're saying the non-princesses were less weird?

[(x) Doubt]
