Ah, hello there. I am Saint. But I suppose you knew that already.
Now now, don't freak out. You dove down here for a reason, did you not? To escape the ever-growing cycles of rain and cold? Five Pebbles showed you the way... I know of the same old story by now. Or was it the Echoes? No matter. What's done is done.
Ah, the other Slugcat? Their title is The Void Sea Escort, but they respond to Escort just fine.
Be prepared to stay a while. They're happy to make new friends.

HIHI, I'm Softie (He/Him)! I am an adult in college. I'm the lone mod for this RP/Askblog. Sometimes I'll shitpost and post other art I guess. I'm shy, but I'll try my best.
I'll mostly reblog things because I do nothing better to do with my times where I'm waiting for college.
Here are the refs for The Void Sea Escort my version of Saint.
Lone italics with no colour will be OOC. Green italics is Saint. And uh... Escort doesn't talk. Rubicon will be in a special, void-coloured text.
@voidwormbird - @saintsascended - @feathersuponmoonbeams - The Sub-blogs attached.
Escort is an Outsider-based OC and is a bird instead of a moth/bug.
Oh oh also there's a Ghost for this Japanese program called Sakura Script Player (SSP) for the Outsider.

Any other tag is probably for comments or for sillyness. If I decide on more I'll add more.
But, anyway, I wanted to cope about this in public that I forgot to save some project I was trying to make after an hour and a half of working. Now, usually I'd keep this to myself, but I think this time you all would understand.
Anyway, I'm going back to researching the local fauna and flora or something, I don't know.
what's your opinion on His Royal Majesty [The Prince]?
and, um...
where am I?
[Ah, a rather new addition to the cycles~ As neither I nor my Guardians have met such, we have not formed opinions~ As long as they stay in their place, we will stay in ours~]
[As for your whereabouts... That depends. You may have connected to my Communications Array, or you may have wandered into my grounds~]

The creature gets closer and makes a chittering noise. Then picks up the phone that he had found lying in the grass.
He seems to be in some sort of field. Bits and pieces of alien buildings, shelters, and trees surround him. Far in the background... there seems to be a crumbling structure...
[Hmh, your silhouette looks like that one Five Pebbles in that other timeline. Though I suppose I should wonder how the device you have connected... I'm not very surprised. It wouldn't be the first time, after all.]
[...I wonder if my efforts in communication are in vain, but you seem to be listening intently enough.]
[I'm not sure what can be said here... But at least it keeps the boredom away~ Is it also just as quiet where you are located? By the looks of the nearly collapsing superstructure perhaps it isn't as quiet as I might think.]
He looks to the side and lowers his ears a bit, then opens his jaw.
The insides of his mouth dark red and black, his teeth black and pointy, but the 'mask' seems to be fused into his upper lip. It looks like he's not actually wearing a vulture mask, and that's just his face. That one Five Pebbles had bright blue insides, didn't he? This one also seems to have much longer hair on the back of his head...
[...Ah! I see. How interesting~ You look like an interesting creature, and sometimes I wish I had a physical form to look at such more... in-depth. I don't think I can bring an overseer over there, however...]
[...I fear this would be much less awkward, however.]
Suddenly... the creature starts fiddling closely with the phone he found..
He seems to be walking somewhere now, but all that's visible is his face. Deep in the pits of his sockets, his pitch-black eyes reflect a bit of light, they glance around the screen... what is he doing?
The creature sticks the phone in his mouth but not swallowing it... maybe he can't do that. He appears to be approximately.... 9 feet tall... fluffy fur covers his body from head to tail.
He then gets down on all fours and approaches the overseer.
The golden overseer seemed... less likely to make eye contact for a few seconds, slightly intimidated.
[This... wouldn't be the first time I've observed creatures randomly wander into The Void Sea. You are rather large; I suppose Escort would be smaller than you... they are a fairly large entity to begin with.]
They seemed to pop around the pitch black entity.
[A rather large beast! On the floors of my region~ Saint would be... less than happy that you are here, though at the moment he's been put into a sort of minor spat with Escort and their own mobile communications device and some other vaguely-iterator shaped being, not that I'm paying much attention.]
[It is still far from safe for you to be here, however. It is our duty to keep those out.]
[ ...though the Karma Gate is locked at the maximum Karma, countless times that has proven fruitless. Creatures of the surface world are persistent, are they not?]
He sits, watching the overseer zip around him. If they could detect it, something would seem off about this creature's Karma... his will to survive in the world burns ravenously... like if something got too close his soul would eat it up. It doesn't even feel like Karma.
The creature tilts his head at the mention of the 'surface world' then shows the overseer the screen of the phone. It seems to have a gps of some sort.... locating rifts in space. The one he came through still looks to be active too.

NSH: "Ah, here we have a new message! .....and it seems to be a butt dial."
"Hello? Are you aware your butt has placed a call to me? Should I consider this harASSmet?"
*Sigh* "This is why I prefer using video, or at least voice... with captions."
The half-formed Void Worm looked extremely surprised; as it usually does when it finds out the magic box in its paws has just suddenly done something randomly.
The box spoke! ...Wait, the box sometimes speaks anyway.
They processed the words said to them, and it looked like they absolutely did, but only blinked in response.
Though from the background...
"Escort, what have I told you about being a nuisance to people over Rubicon's Communications' Array?"
Escort looked up from their phone and straight ahead.
"I apologise in advance for whatever they've done; they're known to do this--" And in a hush of words towards the half-bird, "I'm surprised Rubicon hasn't stopped you yet, and how did you get your phone to work?"
'Escort?' Has NSH heard that before? He tries to see what's behind the creature on the phone.
"They haven't done anything yet, just established contact. I've recently finished a medical check-up on a friend of mine. So, I am not too busy at the moment."
Although he will be busy again in the very near future.... there's still one task he has yet to accomplish, and even though he has been working on it in the background... it's still taking a while.
Escort stuck their tongue out (blep) and continued to stare forward at the other voice.
"Give me the phone, Escort."
They seemed to hesitate for a moment, before shifting into the full bird form, looking ready to run off as they narrowed their eyes, forgetting about the phone being on a video call.
"Don't... We don't want a repeat of the other day, now do we?"
"Oh, is it you? The one who climbed up my can before? I didn't know you could shift forms like that. I have to thank you for breaking up our fight before! Most likely we would have torn each other into ribbons!"
Oh, right. Magic box. Escort looked down again, and they blinked, ribbons going up.
"Ah, yes. That interaction. I suppose The Void Sea's flow of time is strange or lacking, so that interaction might have been more cycles ago for us than for you."
"...Escort, however, is not very intelligent, so whatever they have done is barely any fault of their own. Merely a lack of thought. Now, give me the phone-"
Saint successfully had grabbed the phone from Escort's paws as he shook his head a bit, keeping the device further away than what Escort had done. The massive (from Saint's perspective) slugcat looked somewhat frustrated, though proceeded to become distracted by a void spawn that idly floated by.
"I suppose that their action was something smart about them, but it is often far and few in-between."
"But yes, last I heard, the legs of your superstructure were on the verge of collapse, and I had misplaced Escort through one of Rubicon's somewhat cruel jokes of sending Escort somewhere and not allowing me to follow behind."
"My legs are still compromised, but I've stabilized the damaged ones for now. I have time to work on things. It's been about a week's worth of cycles since I saw Escort here. In that time, I've been observing Five Pebbles."
The clearing of a throat is heard next to NSH.
"Weren't you supposed to be giving me the results of that before you started answering messages?"
The filming overseer moves so the one in question can be seen on the side. NSH squints at him.
"I've been doing nothing but staring at your ass for 8 cycles. I'm taking my break."
...am I? What does this mean? Portal 2 but a Sidescroller (that sort of exists via a fanmade thing)? Ancient timeline worldbuilding with technologically advanced portals????
