Yang stopped at a door reading 314. "Here's the place," she offered before knocking.
The door soon opended up. A tall brown haired male looked to the pair. "Well come on in. PArdon the mess. I was trying a recipe from home..." the male offered.

Well at least the trip to the building and up to the third floor had been uninteresting. The Hotel threw a couple of oddball shots at the two, but nothing they couldn't otherwise handle on their own. When the door opened, Alex wasn't really sure what he was expecting. The man was about what he had figured, a dead ringer for Beth when she was turned into a guy by Arti's Gender Pan.
When he didn't immediately react to seeing him, Alex assumed this was because his Aaron had been just as adverse to the pan as he was. Though whether she started as female or male, he wasn't sure he wanted to know.
"Meh, I've seen worse. Heh. MADE worse too. Trust me, the last thing I'm doing is judging." He and Yang walked in, the man taking in the hotel room as he did. It was a cozy little place, with two beds in the back with a TV and a couch in the front room... Looked like it could be unfolded out into a fouton. "Nice little place you got here."

"Thank you," Todd offered.'So that's what Erin would look like as a guy. Fits.' he mentally added.
"Todd this is Alex. He just got to the island. And I think he has some questions," Yang offered.

Alex cleared his throat as he found a chair and sat himself down. This would probably be the more difficult portions of the evening. He gave Todd a once over, perhaps to confirm some things before his thoughts returned to his questions. He had, after all, many. "Really, whether or not you can answer my questions relates to how long you've been on this island prior to this point..." He let out a breath as the two turned to him. "I'm hoping to catch up on recent events, figure out a bit about what's happened in this place. After all, if you are indeed the Beth of your timeline, you'll remember why I would be curious to find out."
Yes... If this were Erin before him, Todd would likely figure that Erin wanted to know what was different between the physical location and the site they once frequented.

Todd let a chuckle escape his lips. "Yeah. This is the real Dimensional Island," he offered. "And Erin would have replied with the same question. Though the ITS was shrunk recently due to budget cuts and a lot of worlds weren't getting traffic. Everything else is where it should be."
Yang wandered to the kitchen area and let the guys talk.

..... ERIN....
WELL, HE SUPPOSED THAT CONFIRMED THAT...
...... Well might as well get this out of the way it seemed like. "Well, its good to hear not much has changed... However that can be a little worrying as well..." After all, a lot of big-name baddies called this place home as well... ..... WELL... SINCE THIS WAS AN APPARENT ELEPHANT IN THE ROOM.... "Um... Real quickly, what's your story Todd? You can imagine I was pretty curious when Yang told me that you were a God-Tier yourself... So far all of the players I've met come from different timelines and have different stories due to it."

Todd sighed. "I am well a male Witch of Blood," he offered.
"And yes he has the dress version of the robes too!" Yang offered as she brought some water over to Alex and Todd.
"She only knows this because I let her borrow them for pajamas....But anyways. My session went fine. We beat the Black King but we didn't win... Our Mage.... Well she had forgotten to worry about the frog... instead of doing that she helped everyone... So we all got sent a drift. I ended up here," Todd offered.

........ Well, at least this time it hadn't been this 'Erin' that screwed things up... It wouldn't have looked or sounded good if it was always the Thief that screwed things up. The last thing he needed at this point was to know how much worse he could've been. Letting out a sigh, Alex leaned back in his chair. Opening up a void portal, he expelled a soda can from it, and opened it up to take a drink
"... I see...." Whatever the case however, it was still a difficult story to swallow. Only recently he had heard from another version of his Pieter that they had actually managed to WIN the game in one timeline. Now to hear more stories of how badly they lost? "Well... At least you found yourself here... It must be better then hovering through dream bubbles." He motioned to himself. "That's where I've been for a little while. It's kind of sad meeting all those versions of us that lost and lost their lives due to it you know? I'm kinda glad me and Lizzie managed to get here. At least now we can have some kind of life."
Lizzie? Was he perhaps referring to their EmilySprite? It seemed so.

"You still have your sprite?" Todd asked calmly. "I personally glad I found this place as well. If I hadn't... Well I wouldn't have gotten a new little sister or made some rather crazy friends. One thing that my counterpart across the hall used to say was 'No matter what... Landing in this world is the best case for those of us that have lost our way. We get a new start.'"
Yang nodded as she opened her scroll and played what looked like a Remnant version of Angry Birds.

Alex nodded simply at the question before listening to what Todd had to say in regards to the Island. A new start.... He rather enjoyed a thought such as that. Such a clean start would be exactly what the doctor ordered after everything that ended up happening back in his session. It'd be exactly what Lizzie needed as well. Sighing, he crossed his arms and looked up to the cieling. "I'm glad to hear it if I had to be honest. I could use a bit of peace and quiet for a good long while... Or whatever you can call what happens here on the island." He shrugs. "Honestly, ANYTHING is an improvement over the game."

Todd nodded in agreement. "Just be wary with the Black Fog. I've seen worse out of that than the games," he warned the Thief.

The black fog......
"Yeah... Yang told me about that already." Plus, I think I might have a way to reverse it... I just need to find the right sources. "I shudder to think what could happen if I get caught in that cloud honestly... Everyone in the game remembers what happened with me..."
Yes, his skin turned jet-black and he started screeching in tongues... At least he gained control of it near the end and snapped himself out of it.

Todd shuddered. "I had left details out in telling Yang for a reason," he offered.
Yang looked unamused at hearing this. "Grrrrr," she growled.
Todd picked up a news paper and bopped the girl on the head. "No growling at guests," Todd noted.

Alex winced a bit at the growling. "Trust me, Yang." He supposed honesty was the only direction he could go at this point. "You don't wanna know. In fact, it's tempting enough to leave the island and vanish into the void for the next Black Fog event, then come back when it's over. I have no intention of reliving what happened." He scratches behind his head and looks to Todd. "Just like I have no intention of letting anyone have to experience it again... Hmmm... I still need to work on some kind of plan for that though..."

"That bad huh?" Yang asked.
"That Giant Nevermore whose beak you jumped in is a baby kitten compared to what may happen," Todd answered.
Yang gave Alex a look of 'Is he being serious?'
