[01] || [Time Paradoxes] || [Open]
Characters : Doc, his dog and you!
Setting: Floor 12 and Everywhere else
Format: Starting with prose but will match
Summary: Doc wakes up and decides to explore the tower. He is astonished by the projection at Floor 12 and he will babble a lot as explores other floors. Oh, and his dog may find you first.
Warnings: Nothing serious. Lots of technobabble. Panic. He may imply you are the reason your homeworld got destroyed if you mention weird things about time travel. And a dog may happily leap at you.
• Floor Twelve
You may have been quietly watching the terrible projection covering the walls of this room. Or maybe you’re not even here yet. Either way, a scream could be heard coming from the staircase. Was it panic, was it horror? Whatever it was, newt thing you know an old man entered the floor, dressed in weird and flashy clothes, and followed by a dog. He stared at the scenery wide-eyed and mouth open.
“Great Scott!!”
He pulled up his silver glasses, quickly drew a weird camera thingie out of his pocket, and then started observing the walls and ceiling with it.
“Unbelievable! It’s as though the very fabric of those universes are ripped apart! Like if life and all matter were sucked in the holes created by the collapse of the space-time continuum, leading to the…!”
He put down the camera upon realizing the meaning of his words. That was worse than anything he had imagined! And it confirmed his fears about the letter. He quickly pulled out a photo from his pocket and stared at it, both with regret and with sadness.
“Marty, what have we done?! What have I done? How could I be so careless? So inconsiderate?!” he sighed “It can’t be undone, can it?”
The dog whined and sat down besides Doc as he stared still at the photo. Finally Doc shook his head, pocketed the photo, and then went back at observing the scenery through his camera. Mumbling weird things probably nobody could understand.
• Everywhere Else
Doc will be exploring the tower, admiring whatever technological prowess he happens to pass by. Odds are that you’ll find him babbling about what he sees, reading a book at the library, peeking into the viewing stations, eating his oatmeal, or even trying to play video games. He’s so absorbed in his thoughts, he may bump into you as he walks through the corridors.
Alternatively, you may find a dog running and stopping right before you. Not a dangerous one though, quite the contrary actually. This dog looks quite happy to have found someone else.

F-finals, ouch. Good luck with them!
He looks thoughtful and the dog snuffs her hand and stops barking- Yup he definitely likes her. Doc looks at him and smiles.
"Don't worry, he's fine as you can see and totally unaware we're in another dimension." he says then stares back at her.
"I believe it will take a lot of time to rationalize all of what's happening here, but it's not impossible! I've already rationalized the destruction of our homeworlds, so there has to be an explanation for Einstein's survival, and most importantly for the absolute lack of satisfying food in this tower."
Fft, thanks!
Chie takes that as a sign to give the dog a scratch behind his ears, that enough to ease some of the tension that rose at Doc Brown's words. The sixteen year old honestly not wanting to believe their worlds were gone. She wanted to somehow prove- whoever was holding them here wrong.
She blinks at his next words, her gaze glancing back up at the scientist. "Well, I'd be surprised if he did know."
"Uhm, I'm having a hard time rationalizing- all of this. Its, just so... strange." Clearly she's lost on the issue, she wrinkling her nose a little.
no subject
... He's sorry if he crushed her hope, but- At least there are ways to bring the worlds back, that much he was certain of it!
"Some things are hard to rationalize, but science can explain most everything!" he said "It's only a matter of time, efforts and the good tools! My assistant and I are going to work on the question."
no subject
Its okay, Doc. Chie can just pet Einstein while her hopes, dreams and fears all become a single horrifying pulp from his words. Look at it ooze together into a sad mess. She needs the time to just ruffle the dogs ears to put her thoughts back together. "It, just- doesn't make sense. To me, anyway. I'm not really smart so-" She waves a hand in the air awkwardly ducking her head.
She pursed her lips uncertainly, "If you need any help... I can do something, maybe?"
no subject
Einstein at the very least is still all good and merely enjoy Chie petting him. Doc's not really realizing that what he says is at best impossible to understand- At worst alarming and a topic of worry.
"It's not being smart or not. The study of the time and space is the work of my life, not even my assistant could make sense of this- Yet he's your age and worked with me for years!"
A few words of comforts, at last. Maybe he should open Science classes in the tower... Now though that she offers her help, he scratches his head and thinks. He speaks more to himself than to her here.
"Maybe... Marty mentioned something about opening some kind of service to help those in the tower and advance our research... If we go through with this and if this is to work, we may need help then."
