“A-at least until it shows that it’s only dangerous.”

"And that's better?"

Thanks!

It made a squawking noise that sounded an awful lot like cackling.

". . . Assumed what?"

Utility (presumably) took them to Jack, rendering himself invisible.

“…could we go right now?”

Jack, startled, jumped into the air. This was not a normal jump, however. In a split second, he had leap around ten feet upwards, flailing his arms in the air before landing in a heap with a loud clang. 

She appeared next to him. “Boo! Did I scare you good?”

He started heading the right way.

Holt sighed.

"Look . . . just do whatever you want, kid. It'll probably be fine."

Enrik crawled up onto her shoulder.

He shrugged.

"Corysande didn't want me to keep Atlas. But I did, anyway, and she seems to like him a lot more now."

Time skip? Or do you want to do something?

nope

let’s go to cheesetown

Cheesetown was a quaint little town, with a few farms on the outskirts and obviously like other buildings and stuff. Echo is feeling lazy right now, so she won’t write out the whole description, but you get the idea.

“I’ve been here before,” she said. “Sarah Imani. She had a broach.”

He nodded. "I'll keep it for now."

"I don't think I've ever been here. It's . . . nice," she said quietly.

Corysande nodded. By then, they were at the mouth of the cave.

"Don't freak out in here, got it?'

". . . Okay."

He knew practically nothing about the Underworld, it should be noted . . .

Stone paused, as memories, angry memories poured into his mind. He was . . . a monster. Tam was right. "Was that . . . really me?"

He paused, disturbed, even as memories began to return, albeit slowly. "Storms above . . . I . . . now, what?" he settled, slightly angry. "Now I'm going to suffer for what I've done in the past? That's justice, isn't it?"

"I could remove those memories, if you wish. Give you a fresh start."

[TwinStorm He/Him]

Just now, Through The Living Glass said:

"No." he said abruptly. "No. I'd just suffer, and not know why I am suffering. Is there .  .  .  a way to prove myself?"

"I don't know. Something other than a monster."

"There are plenty of ways to prove yourself as a good person."

Jack looked up at her. “Who are you?” It is perhaps relevant to note that his face was made of metal. In fact, all his skin was made of metal of several types, with some gaps showing visible gears. He did look fairly human, and his confusion and mild panic was evident on his face.

Utility watched from nearby. He thought the gears were a bit excessive, but who was he to judge?

"Like what?" he frowned, not used to this.
