Summary
Ryland gripped the wall. “What do—what do we do? What are we supposed to be doing?” His voice didn’t quite teeter into panic, but it was a very near ‘almost’. His voice cracked slightly in the middle.
“Not much,” Ilyukhina told him, smiling, but her eyes were sweeping him up and down. “Nothing to do. Hold onto something and get ready for a ride.”
“I don’t think I got training,” Ryland warbled, realizing.

He acts… weird. He doesn’t sleep, and neglects the medical and psychological exams. I’m not sure he’s here, if you know what I mean."
“Where is he, then?” Adrian’s musical notes come out discordant.
“Wherever his human companion is stuck. If the alien dies, Rocky might never come down from the stars.”Or; twenty-three friends leave for the most dangerous mission known to Erid, two strangers return.

Summary
A gamebreaking glitch tore the game session to shreds, right before they reached the end. Dirk Strider was already dead at the time. Temporarily. Which left him to revive in the aftermath. As the Prince of Heart, he doesn't have much experience putting souls back together, only breaking them, but at this point he seems to be the only one who even knows shit is broken.
He's the last person who'd trust himself with this. Not when he's out of time, out of place, and over his head being responsible for a little brother, a life, and a body his conveniently dead asshole of a splinterself already, thoroughly fucked up.
AKA: A game crash creates an unholy mashup of who the hell knows how many sburb sessions, and Dirk-as-Bro attempts to figure out wtf happened and how to fix shit for the brother who fears him, and the friends who don’t remember him. Because that’s what he does. But no Dirk has ever excelled when truly alone. Good thing he isn’t, he just needs to learn how to accept the help.

Summary
“This was ours,” he says, his voice low and demanding. Had he always been oppressive? It’s hard to tell. Some parts of him, perhaps, but never the whole - but what had wholeness meant when he was made with dotted lines along which the universe was instructed to cut? The Prince as he is and the prince by his side were moulded into the shape of something real from the same cloth, but hollow beneath it. There is a destiny at play, and he has known that for a while, now. “Still is, if you’re looking at it from my view. Which you will, someday. It was supposed to be ours, in the roundabout nature that most things are for me now.”
There is quiet from the young prince.
(Or: Dirk and Ultimate Dirk have a little chat.)
