POP!
You almost jumped out of your skin at the sudden sound behind you. Ragatha peered over your shoulder, curious, while Gangle remained as a mess of loops on the floor.
"Belgh!-" Oh, what a wonderful sight. You pitied the little jester, really, and you totally understood her need to vomit all over the floor after travelling with Caine. The guy could not figure out that unlike him, the others were not used to teleporting around all willy-nilly. (A part of you thought that he literally wasn't able to throw up, which would explain a few things.)
"Whoa, clean up on aisle you!" He cheerfully pointed at the dizzy clown, clearly not intending to actually help her. His hat wiggled once before Caine's annoying right hand... Bubble... appeared from within in depths.
"I'm on it, boss!" Oh, please don't do what you think it's going to do.
With no hesitation whatsoever, the spherical [BOINK!] started licking up the mass of black gunk. You were lucky you had a somewhat strong stomach, so the sight didn't immediately make you want to throw up too, but it was touch and go for a split second. You turned away and clutched Ragatha's shoulder for support.
"Why are you like this?" You didn't know if Caine was talking to you or the Bubble, but, by the exaggerated licking sounds, you could only guess it was the latter.
"Wait, wait!" The exclamation from the little jester made you turn around, hoping for a change of pace in the conversation. "W-Was that an exit door I saw out there? Is that a way to leave?"
"What exit?" You and Jax asked in unison, one of you notably more laid back (or simply not bothered) about it. You whipped around in time to see the rabbit steal one of Zooble's arms. He quirked an eyebrow in your direction.
"If there was a way to leave, I'm pretty sure we'd have all left by now," He casually used the 'borrowed' limb as a back-scratcher, not giving two flying [SPLAT!]s about the situation. Zooble's antennae wiggled as they glared at him, the disembodied arm acting on its owner's command to strangle the life out of Jax. You watched in silent satisfaction.
"Yeah, what are you talking about?" Zooble's voice remained surprisingly calm, all while Jax fought for his digital life in the background, only to fall face-first onto the floor.
"U-Uh, I-" Caine cleared his throat, finally tearing his two floating eyes away from the scene of Bubble in front of him. "I assure you, there is no 'magical exit door'," He air-quoted, "You're probably just experiencing... 𝐃𝐈𝐆𝐈𝐓𝐀𝐋 𝐇𝐀𝐋𝐋𝐔𝐂𝐈𝐍𝐀𝐓𝐈𝐎𝐍𝐒." He looked back to the tiny jester, "From your mind's transition to the digital plane," He explained like it was common knowledge.
"-But I-I swear, I saw-" She began.
"𝐃𝐈𝐆𝐈𝐓𝐀𝐋 𝐇𝐀𝐋𝐋𝐔𝐂𝐈𝐍𝐀𝐓𝐈𝐎𝐍𝐒!" Caine refused eye contact and fidgeted subtly with his fingers.
