"Well we've got a perfect opportunity to find out haven't we?" I have walked into a secluded corner of the auction hal to avoid being overheard while still being able to keep an eye on the proceedings.
"I was dead for your quest so don't ask me. And at least you've had yours, we've had at least one bullshit all group quest when it should rightfully be my turn."
"It'll happen. Unless this is it happening right now. Because like, Sister's been around for...quests and stuff and you're with her for this thing and it's kind of like a quest so...fuck it I don't know."
I sigh. "I don't even know what we're at this auction for, I'm just going along with it because why not? You know? There's no motivation to do anything other than the fact that it's there to be done."
"Well, backtracking through my memories, Sis said to rendezvous here, we did, she told us what was the deal, and we agreed to help. Or...maybe it was just me and everyone else got dragged along."
"So you don't remember either? Fuck. I'm having an existential crisis while on an adventure in space. Someone contact my childhood self and tell him that."
"Nah I ah...remember the broad strokes. Sides' it's not like we had anything better to do, and as such there are worse things to do than aid a friend in need, right?"
"She's not even in need she's just doing her job. At least she has a job." I slump to the floor. "It's withdrawal. Should never have started taking those things."
As the auction hall fills, your superior takes you by the arm and backstage. He tells you to look out for a man, and hands you a picture with two faces on them. He points out the blind one, but warns you to keep an eye out for both of them.
You just give him your trademark smirk and nod your head. He tells you to watch your ass out there. You put the photo in your coat and head back on stage.
Everyone applauds.
"Good evening ladies and gents. I've taken up enough of your time, so let's get right down to it. The first item on the block today is a very rare, one of a kind portal tearing device."
"We'll start the bid at one hundred thousand boonbucks!"
You pick it up and walk to one wall, tearing open a rift. You walk to the other wall and tear open another. You push your hand through, and the audience is astonished when it appears suspended on the other wall.
