“Oh,
uh… I’m Mecchan.” Mecchan explained. “Yeah, I know how magic works. And
it’s a long story for how I ended up getting here and I have no idea
how I’m gonna get back, but basically a friend of mine, who had
inherited his grandfather’s science labs decided to make an
extradimensional portal. It’s… got some bugs.”Mecchan sighed. “Sorry if this is too much for you guys. If you can’t help me, I understand.”
“Oh, one of those?” the Repairman sighed. “Yeah, that sounds about right.”
Marie saw Mecchan’s confusion, and her own eyes turned to those of worry.
“No, no,” the inkblot said, reassuringly, “I can help you home, I think. Can you tell me your world?”
