[EVENT] The Simulation Ends

[sixthiteration]

WHERE: 6I Fountain Park & Elsewhere
WHEN: April 1
OPEN TO: ALL - Mingle
WARNINGS: N/A

---

In the snug circle of an old park, a fountain sits burbling beneath a broad, midday sky.

Once-neat paving stones have buckled and cracked from the slow nudge of wayward roots. Benches stand covered in lichen and rust. Three paths push into the underbrush like the spokes on a wheel, the encroaching forest creating lush tunnels through the dark.

But the fountain stands singular and pristine, brightly splashing in open rebellion of the deep, muffled sounds of a place long ago gone to seed. A vibration hums through the ground, there and quickly gone, and the water in the fountain trembles, lapping against the high walls of its cool, pale reservoir.

Far, far away, in a place that isn't really there, people begin to blink out of existance.

It is the first of April.

It is precisely ten o'clock in the morning.

Clary couldn't stop herself from laughing. "Seriously? You're totally Timon and Ravi is Pumba. There is no way around it. You guys will cock-block each other from now to eternity." Which was how Clary say the two Lion King characters.

"I don't know but that's my guess. Like waking up from the Matrix. People have been coming in waves and they were disappearing from waves on the other side." It was the only logical conclusion that Clary had.

"It also explains the weird changes where we were before. Matrix."

"Cock-block? I will have you know that we've done no such thing. Or .. well, didn't back in Seattle. Considering we're both young, able-bodied men with healthy sex drives, we never really got in the way of each other's ... uh, pursuits," Major says with a little bit of a playful defensiveness in his voice. Sure, it'd been a little weird for Major when Peyton and Ravi were a thing, but only because he'd known Peyton for so long. And he knows he probably made things a little uncomfortable for Ravi when he and Shauna had set up the sex fort in the living room, but .. they managed.

"But how do we know we're waking up from the Matrix and not just getting put into one? What if the other version of stuff was the real Matrix?"
