"Here's the goggles you asked me to check."
Karl gingerly took the item from Jack's hand. Eyes full of wonder as he stared at the tinted glass that barely reflected his messy hair but the outline was there if you squint that is. It felt heavier than it used to be but it was still the same design.
Well... almost. The glasses were changed and there were embedded crystals on the metal chambers that keep the tinted glasses.
He's glad he showed Jack the goggles because now, he sat in the other male's air-conditioned office and away from the heat of the sun outside. They're in a metal contraption the technician created during the short time he spent in Cogchamp. It's just a small area but it was enough for the tools and a bed to fit in.
"I modified some of the old features, you have an A.I now, like Siri but better because I'm smarter than the man who made her."
Karl didn't pay any mind to what Jack said, instead he unclasped the latch before putting it on. The dark glass suddenly cleared up and he could see everything clearly, he noticed Jack had gone silent, now staring at him expectantly. Then a pop up came from nowhere that made him jump slightly.
'Location: Cogchamp Territory
Population: 17/20
Protection: Totem fueled with the Water Elemental Orb.

"Wow, this is awesome."
"I know, the mechanic in there is hard to fix but I managed. It's unlike what I've worked on before, should've done better tho." The flying bot on his shoulder started beeping non-stop as if it was mad about something, Karl would've guessed it was being upset because the inventor was bringing himself down. Jack just let out a sarcastic laugh before flicking it from his shoulder.
"What did it say?"
"It said that I did well and to not bring myself down." Karl turned back to the bot that started screaming in bell chimes as it flew back to its owner's shoulder.
The time traveller thought it was cute to have a small companion following you around. He wonders how it feels to hold or how it is made. But he didn't have the time to do so when he heard muffled shouts from outside that made them sit up straight at the noise before the two of them rose from their seats and to the door, the owner's voice becoming clearer as they approached the entrance.
The metal doors parted and came to the view of Phil holding a pale Tubbo in his arm with Foolish exchanging words with Eret, a puff of cloud in between them that carried an unconscious body, someone Karl was quick to recognise just by seeing her blotched hand.
"What happened?" Karl asked as he approached them, he spotted Niki leave the clinic with Puffy following behind her, eyes wide as the injured unravelled before her, mouth left hanging as she tried to inquire more about what happened but nothing incognizable came out.
"They went hunting and stumbled upon Techno."
"Techno?!? What?? How??" Puffy jumped in, finally finding the words to say as Niki assisted Phil with taking the two injured inside.
Karl paused as everything around him became hazy, his ears picked up the laboured breath he took and the quick beats of his heart after feeling it fall to his feet. He felt his soul get taken from him after hearing what happened, he was drowning in the flood that is dread and shock that he barely even noticed Ranboo teleporting in front of him before running to Tubbo's side. The time traveller took a step forward but was stopped by the arm that crossed the doorway.
