[ That sounded....Oddly familiar. Something about the bills, and a creature on the train. But he won't pry too much. This already felt strange as it is. ]

Some sort of colorful restaurant. There were teenagers around me hanging out together. Laughing. Talks of sports, exams. They just came from school.

[ Huh. ]

...That sounds completely unrelated to yours. Hm.

[gundamofthedesert]

Hmmm... interesting. Such very mundane things to see. It's not what I would expect if it was a message of some sort.

[He nodded his head]

It certainly seems like they are unrelated.

[adregem]

Right?

[ So they were correct not to trust the island. They were correct not to trust any of this for what it was. ]

We'll need to be vigilant. We could wind up seeing more.

[gundamofthedesert]

[Quatre was fairly trusting overall, but a strange vision was something that he wasn't so sure about. Certainly, nothing good came from showing someone such random information when they didn't want it]

Of course. Should we share if we see more? See if we can put something together?

[adregem]

[ Roland nods decisively. ]

You read my mind. Let's. The more minds trying to figure this out, the better.

[gundamofthedesert]

Great. If I see another one, I will let you know so we can compare notes.

[They seemed to be very much alike in someways, very much wanting to figure out why strange things had happened]

[adregem]

Heh. Thanks. That'd be really appreciated. [ Roland smiles at Quatre and returns to the view, just breathing quietly and letting it wash over him before work takes priority once again.

Visions, huh? Not the first time he's had to deal with that. Guess it's not going to be the last, either. ] I enjoyed our little trek up the mountain. It was well-worth the climb, I'd say.

[gundamofthedesert]

No problem. There's usually an answer to things if people work together to accomplish it.

[His own gaze turned back to the view. It was amazing up here. So beautiful. Places like this were the reason he had wanted to go Earth, why he wanted to defend it]

Definitely worth it. Too bad this is something we can only do for a limited time.

[He'd love to bring more people here and share this with them]

[adregem]

[ Now that's a philosophy Roland gets behind. His smile grows wider upon hearing it from someone else, pleased that Quatre would even vocalize it. ]

Right you are. Hard as unification is...It wouldn't be worth having if it came easy.

[ Roland just hums at that. It's nice, but it's already coming with a price to pay. They just didn't know how heavy. ]

Well, I don't know about that. Vacations feel special because you don't get to do them often, after all. But I won't disagree - it's a one in a million experience.

[gundamofthedesert]

[It was a philosophy Quatre had always held dear in his world and he would continue that here on the train]

Exactly. It's always good when people can unify. It is very hard, but that is what makes it all the more special.

That's true. It wouldn't be special if we were here all the time, but it is still nice to be able to stretch our legs and go somewhere that's not a straight line.

[adregem]

Right you are. Let's you and me make this trek last.

[ Hear, hear.

And so Roland gestures to the other, to move to another part of the mountain, or somewhere else that might offer another view of the island. It's a good day, after all. ]

[gundamofthedesert]

Yes let's. I think that area over there looks nice.

[He pointed to another section of the mountain that Roland had indicated]
