So, hey...

[Hey, Keelial. Remember him? He looks a lot more tired than before, his hair is ruffled and his shirt looks partly undone. It looks like he's sat in the College.]

Anyone noticed the pattern on the Turtle's shell? It's... pulsing. It started like... three? Four days ago? The time between the pulses is getting shorter.

I'm not sure what this means, but... hey. It sounds important, right? I've done some math and, well... I think... [Yawn.] ...I think the pulses are gonna stop in a week or so. If the period between them keeps getting shorter.

Assuming that's what this is.

But isn't the true question what happens once the pulsing comes to an end?

[consultingbishop]

And for that question, you got me. I'm not an expert in macroscopic herpetology.

[no_light]

For all that we live on a giant turtle, there is a lack of experts in any kind of herpetology. You would think whatever or whoever chooses us would prioritize zoologists.

[consultingbishop]

One would assume.

[Instead, you bring in a man who kinda breaks realities just by existing in them.]

Hardly anyone's notice the pa... Pulses.

[no_light]

[ Noticed that slip. Pa...? He has nothing. Maybe it'll make sense later. ]

With them speeding up, it reminds me of a counter. People seem to think Tu Vishan will wake up, but that remains to be seen.

[consultingbishop]

Yeah, I mean... It could be a countdown to anything.

[no_light]

Takeoffs or explosions usually, at least in my world. I'm hoping for the former.

[consultingbishop]

Hell, for all we know, it could be a countdown to Tu Vishan's birthday.

[no_light]

Let's hope not, there's only so many parties I can stand

[consultingbishop]

[Well, someone's all doom and gloom.]

I'd prefer parties to the turtle exploding.

[no_light]

I take it you haven't been to a party here yet.

[consultingbishop]

Have you?

[Because you don't seem the type to go to parties, Kylo.]

[no_light]

[ He really isn't. But ask his self-declared friend Hyuuga if he cares. ]

Unfortunately. I wouldn't recommend it.

[consultingbishop]

Maybe you don't go to the right kind of parties.

[no_light]

I think I'll make do without parties altogether now. They aren't for me. You're welcome to them.

[consultingbishop]

Now I definitely know you ain't been to the right parties.

[no_light]

Or maybe this place is short of the parties I enjoy.

[ Which is no parties. Such a party pooper. ]

[consultingbishop]

[Peter's getting that impression, but, hey... The past few months, he wasn't really interested in parties, either.]

Hey, whatever floats your boat, buddy.

[no_light]

How generous of you.

I will leave you to your devices.

My name is Kylo Ren. If you learn anything about the pulsing I woukd be interested in hearing it.

[consultingbishop]

Peter Bishop. It's been a pleasure.

[Somewhat.]

And all I know is that it'll likely stop on the 16th. Beyond that? No clue.
