Muse is excited about newcomers to the city. Is NOT excited about a hiatus.

[deusrexmachina]

Dude, wait. What? A two week hiatus? Even if it isn't happening until more like the start of November, that's still so close! Plus so much can happen in two weeks! All these cool new people arriving and you need to call a hiatus right after they get to Nautilus? Seriously?

Man. It figures you wouldn't give me the break I've been wanting until I don't actually want it. Not like it's news, but wow, mun. You really are horrible.

Downtime's downtime - take it when you can get it, kid.

So... What can one expect in that place, eh? Mun's been looking at it, for better or worse. I know about the power issues - that'll be bothersome, but not impossible to work with.

[But don't want it right NOW...]

So Nautilus might become your new home, huh? Reality storms are the big thing. They hit like once a month or so and change the city, us or both. Like the last one caused people to slide forward or backward along their personal timelines.

[Well, can't always have what we want, unfortunately. Shoutarou for one doesn't want to go to this place...]

H-uh.

Not the strangest thing I've seen, but not exactly an encouraging prospect, either...

[deusrexmachina]

Yeeeaahhh... It's one of the tamer storms we've had, too. No one got seriously hurt or died. Storms range from stuff like that to, well...full on zombie invasion levels of "oh god why."

I see...

[Cue one long-suffering sigh, and an adjustment of the fedora on his head.] A man's work is never really done, it seems.

[deusrexmachina]

Probably not?

[Thoughtful pause.]

You're the hero type, I'm guessing?

[thisclinchesit]

[There's a smirk and a faint chuckle.] Something like that, yeah.
