BARISTA ON DUTY: BLACK COFFEE
RECEIPT FILED AS: C-ITN-06
Dimensional Displacement sickness? Of course, we couldn’t just die in peace. Well, at least Lungo is here, and if there is one person who could get us out, it’d be him. According to him and our CaDComs, it’s been 20 days since we’ve been here. Well, 20 Flipside days. I’m not really sure how many Necropolis days it’s been since there isn’t really day or night here. But we’ve definitely been here for longer than we need to.
Lungo was partially kidding about getting us Juicy Fruit or tartrazine, by the way. His meeting in the Everdark can apparently wait, and he’d rather get us out of here first. He’s working on opening up a portal now. How he’s able to open portals between dimensions at will is way beyond me, but I suppose that’s what makes him… him. Now, I did say partially joking because we will need to be chewing Juicy Fruit on our return trip. Dimensional Displacement sickness is apparently no joke and has killed many foolhardy Astorians.
Though it is somewhat strange we weren’t hit with it when we first got here. According to Lungo, the symptoms range from mild to severe depending on your method of travel and the dimensional distance you’ve crossed. On the mild and most common side, there’s nausea, sweating, cramping, sharp pains, and emotional overwhelm. More severe cases include temporal disorientation, visual disturbances, auditory hallucinations, tactile sensations, and phantom smells. The worst of it, though, and what we’d be likely to be hit with should our bodies catch up to the fact we’ve been in the wrong dimension for 20+ days… dimensional vertigo, energy fluctuations, existential collapse, spatial displacement, fugue states, and “dimensional echoes.”
So, once Lungo gets the portal home up… don’t forget to take a stick of juicy fruit with you. Tartrazine, the yellow dye in the gum, counteracts most of those side effects.
