Ah, okay then. :P

"Oh." She would have blushed if she weren't a crab.

"Thanks."

“Of course. You’ve stopped me from making some very dumb decisions.”

"Oh."

She skittered a little closer to the entrance.

"I mean . . . I forgive you, but it's really him you should be apologizing to, not me," she said quietly.

"Of course I was worried for him at first; I'm his sister, y'know? But once he was fine -physically, at least- I started to understand why you did that. So I'm not angry."

"He is, though."

"I... I know. But... I don't know if I can do that. Apologize to him." He looked down at his hands and said softly, "People are scary." 

Beosta shrugged. "Looks like he and Bat are building a sandcastle or something."

. . . Hmm.

Here's my best, extremely theoretical guess:

No.

Depending on the strength of the gravity, it might actually speed them back up.

Please don't make me explain it. It hurt my brain to think about it 😂

Edit: Scratch that, it's just a straight-up no.

He smiled reassuringly at her.

I'm sure he'll be fine.

". . . Yeah," she said quietly, having retreated into the castle.

She skittered back into the basement and curled up into a little ball.

". . . No. I just need a minute."

"Thank you though."

Wait wait wait…

lemme draw this out…

THE ANSWER IS HECK YES I BROKE THE UNIVERSE! (But I knew that already…)

What I would say is that because g (gravitational force) is a constant, no.

g is not a constant, actually. It depends on the mass of the object not represented in mg.

G is, if that was what you were referring to.

Spoiler

But y’all, an object’s mass increases with relativistic speed… and since time travel, air flow causes problems. The air entering the system would have a relative speed many many times the speed of light, so it would have a freaking lot of mass… which would cause various problems…

 

Actually, the object would just have an unreal mass… let’s see…

Ok, imagine a slowed space. 

In this space, there is a planet, as well as an object in free fall near the surface of the planet.

This object’s acceleration due to gravity is equal to what it is on Earth

From outside the slowed space, this falling object is observed to move a hundredth of a centimeter, towards the planet, after three days.

Right? Ok, so inside the slowed space, it would have taken  0.00447 seconds. Three days is 259200 seconds, so if we divide 0.00447 by 259200, we get the factor by which time is slowed, which is 1.725e-8. Multiply unaffected time by this, and affected time should be the result.

Ok, next, let us imagine an object of mass 1 with velocity 1 collided with this slowed space. It’s relative velocity is equal to distance/slowed time

If slowed time = time *1.725e-8, it means relative velocity is equal to

d*((1.725e-8)^-1)/t

or

57986577.181 * d / t

or 57986577.181 * v

If v = 1, as previously stated,

relative velocity is 57986577.181, which is actually just barely below the speed of light. (Thankfully, otherwise it’s mass would be an unreal number… more on that later.)
 
Translational kinetic energy is 1/2 * m * v^2, and relative kinetic would just substitute relative v in for v. So relative kt would equal…

1.681e15 J…

Which is a lot. (And technically a tiny bit more… because relative mass increases with speed)

Like… a lot.

And so, the collision would have this energy…

Suppose the object was moving at 6 = v instead of 1…

The speed would actually surpass the speed of light, so it’s relative mass and  energy would actually be nonreal numbers… funny.

But this still doesn’t answer the initial question…

 

Okokok an objects acceleration due to gravity is relative to the mass of the other object, and since the planet we are on is in an orbit, it has a speed a lot more than 6… gravity would just… break.

Hmmm

I think this calls for creative intervention.

I think if your answer is that gravity would break, you did something wrong. I don't have the time to devote proper research into this, but gravity seems pretty reliable to me.

EDIT: Especially because time dilation is a very real thing, but we don't see gravity breaking (or to my knowledge, the effects you mention at all)
