Multiversal travel can be disorienting, but there’s no need to worry! All side effects are temporary and lessen with each trip. Your body may experience several sensations at once: being pushed forward as if a hand is resting on your back, momentary and startling blindness, a gentle ringing in your head. You may have difficulty discerning whether it is hot or cold, but where you have been prodded is noticeably warmer than the rest of you. Some may suffer dizziness while others are perfectly fine. You notice that the area you are in is filled with a soft cerulean light and feels slightly humid and dark despite the glow around you. Regardless of your current state, however, the stress of transit forces your body into unconsciousness.
Waking up is another story. Or maybe it isn’t.
You find yourself in a nondescript room; sometimes with others who have found themselves in the same situation, sometimes alone. Welcome to Avagi Station, your new home.
Avagi
A fixer upper opportunity:
Welcome to your new home! It’s a bit rough around the edges but it could be so much worse. Or that’s what you thought until you walked to your housing level and found the bathroom floating under three inches of water as a pipe gushes water. That’s definitely not what those pipes should be doing, you should probably try and get that fixed before your entire level is flooded. Who knows what sort of chaos all that water will play with Avagi’s support systems. Do you call for help or is someone going to find you trying to play amateur plumber with a roll of tape?
Are you afraid of the dark?:
There are different types of darkness that one has to deal with when they're living in space. There's the dim lighting of rarely used corridors, the shadows that lurk wherever they can find a place to hide. And you must never forget the swirling blackness of the storm that surrounds Avagi. Today you're dealing with a darkness you've been warned to expect. Some of your fellow residents are overhauling the electrical systems on board and told everyone that there was a chance there could be randomized blackouts.
The lights blink out without a sound, plunging you into darkness. Your eyes take a while to adjust and when they do everything seems a bit more… sinister. Sound travels differently in the dark, the quietest scratches and bumps echo louder in your ears and--
What was that ? Did that sound come from nearby? Did something just touch your leg? Maybe you should find someone before you get more paranoid. If it is paranoia, anyways.
Jeepers Creepers...:
The blackouts continue, spreading beyond isolated sections until they’re taking over entire blocks of the station and plunging everything into a more pervasive darkness. Wherever it spreads, a faint odor accompanies it along with a sudden burst of paranoia as everything seems more intense and slightly blurry at the same time. When the lights snap on the feeling of disorientation worsens and you struggle to focus when an intercom crackles to life blaring a warning you can barely understand. All you know is that something is wrong. And even worse, you know without a doubt that something, someone is coming to hurt you. As you see figures approaching, faces a blur of inhumanity marred by a mask to hide their identites you do the only thing you can in your panic.
You run.
Hopefully someone will be able to catch you and get you to clear air before you find a weapon and decide to stand your ground against them.
[Being out of the Greater Grail War has been a... unique experience for Siegfried. Besides not being in battle consistently, or badgered by a Master, he's had time to actually speak with people. Of course, that was in between being sent off into a dream hellscape, then quarantined for doing nothing wrong, then breaking out of said quarantine- only to watch the world he had been brought to pretty much die in front of his eyes.
.........it's been a rough three months, to say the least.
He's still somewhat pulling out of his daze when Karna speaks, and Siegfried stills just for a moment before the towel is lifted. That voice is a familiar one, and seeing his face just confirms who he thought had just spoken.
That doesn't stop him from blinking for just a moment, though.]
...Lancer of Red.
[And suddenly this whole scenario just became a lot more embarrassing. It was embarrassing enough for meeting a Servant, but what makes it worse is that Karna is a Servant Siegfried holds respect for, and when you look like an idiot in front of a Servant you have a friendly rivalry and respect with? It certainly doesn't give you any bonus points. He shifts, trying to get himself back up, one arm already pushing himself halfway up before something bumps his elbow and he slips back down into the water, causing him to frustratedly exhale upwards, towel still on his head and moving slightly in his irritation. This entire thing is a mess. Why is his luck so terrible?
Still, he's not being laughed at, so he'll take that as a good thing for now. The fact that Karna knows him does settle him, but only slightly. There was also the fact that Karna spoke of who he truly was, without saying his name. The traveling knight of the Netherlands. Siegfried isn't exactly sure how he knows this, but there's a lot of things in this realm that he's had to just take as they are, and also accept that some things just don't have answers. It's not something he enjoys by any stretch, but he also doesn't think Karna is immediately going to strike his back the first opportunity he gets. Perhaps that's putting too much trust into a hero he's only ever fought once, but Siegfried would like to think it holds, in this case.]
