Library, Monday [2/19]

Yomiko had spent the entire weekend holed up in her basement, working on a translation of Russian fairytales for extra cash. So she had no idea anything unusual had happened that weekend. Sometimes, it paid to be oblivious.

"Researching time travel. If you want we can maybe pair up in Forensic Science next time."

"Sounds good to me! The mun I can never seem to talk to all the special guest victims in time during class. I'll look for you in class on Wednesday."

She looked over at Lucas' books with interest. "Oh, cool, time travel! For some class, or in movies, or for real, or what?"

"Uh, for real. I've got a few theories about how Fandom works and rifts in the space-time continuum are right up there. Do you know much about how you got here?"

"Me? Sure I do. My Mom drove me here," she said, adding a short friendly teasing giggle on the end. "But my roomie's a shape-shifting alien superhero from another world in another universe, so I'd believe stuff about rifts. Are you talking about, like, rips in the Veil between worlds?"

Since she and the other Guardians had used rips in the Veil to deal with problems on other worlds, she had a basic idea of how that worked. Of course, usually that would have meant looking in books about magic instead of science.

"I'm guessing similar thing, different terminology. The space-time continuum is what everything's made up of from the beginning of time to the end of it. Hypothetically if you can make a tear in it, that tear can act as a gateway to another part of the multiverse. Another existence, timeline, alternate reality. Whatever you want to call it. And it means that it's possible to go back and forth in time through these tears, or rifts."

Will nodded, not quite understanding the scientific terms Lucas used, but getting the idea behind it. It seemed to her that he was talking about a more powerful version of the Veil, that could also take you to other times and alternate universes.

"And you're researching this to try and make your own or something?"

"I kind of found one."

Will blinked. Totally hadn't been expecting that. "Where?"

Re: Third Period

"Around. Somewhere. I'm trying to keep it a secret and not doing too well, but I doubt anyone's going to find it on their own without my equipment. I'm going to send something through tomorrow, see if I can figure out where it leads. Do you want to come and watch?"

"We'll have to see about tomorrow since the mun has a lot to do in real life. But I'm definitely interested in the whole project. I'll try to make it if I can."

"Cool. Well, if you can make it, be at the back of the dorms a little after 6:30."
