IC INTRO - JUNE '18
After the fight with the siren has settled, those characters with phones hooked to the KEystone network will get a text -
Okay, everyone, you had better come back in. There's a storm brewing just off the coast.
Even given Up's usual professionalism, it seems rather... subdued?
----
For once, there are no androids at all to greet you upon your return, or arrival, as the case may be. A shelter has been set up for the boats on the shoreline of Glitterstone, however. By the time you tromp up the lighthouse stairs to the level of the Station itself, the sky is beginning to grey with the promised storm.
There's not the typical feast outside, but there is a fairly extensive taco bar set up in the common room, left unattended as well. The room sign-up sheet and boxes of freebies are also there, complete with the Braille versions, and a note at the bottom of both room sheets reads "If all rooms are full, space has been made in the meeting rooms on the top floor. We'll have additional rooms available as soon as possible."
It does appear that someone has updated the murder counter while you were away, however, for the turning of the week. It now reads 15 weeks without murder.
Other than that, you're free to explore, including in the newly finished sections of the Annex (should you be willing to brave the storm to get between buildings). However, wherever you go, the androids are almost conspicuously absent - even in the medical bay and Down's workstation in the command center.
The meeting room they have for their own private use is securely closed and locked.

According to the androids, the size and degree of complexity of what arrives through the Fissures is on an exponential curve - while they've been around for over a century, living creatures have only been coming through at all for a handful of years.

...So it stands to reason that they only recently had come into the ability to be able to bring living beings here whereas before they hadn't been able to. I wonder if it's a matter of technological means or if it's purely some form of magic that was refined over years of practice and hardships. Maybe it's both a mix of supernatural and technological that made it possible at all...
[ Yeah now that he's going, it's likely he's not gonna stop until he hits an end of his train of thought. ]

By all indications, it's magic gone haywire, not anything anyone has intentionally done. The androids aren't bringing us here; they were created to research the effects and happened to have the space.
no subject
I see. So it's more of the effects of the unstable magic that does it, and they're just here to see what it can do. Happening to be here with us in the same place is just kind of coincidence.
[ Izuku's whole face lights up at this. ]
All of this just sounds like something i'd see in a movie! I never thought i'd ever get to experience it for myself. [ A pause. ] Oh! Uh... my name's Izuku, by the way! I g-guess I just got so caught up in things that I forgot to really say that earlier.
