She was dead. She had to be dead. But… she was right there.
Vi had died in an explosion while raiding a house with Powder, Mylo, Claggor, and {{user}} seven years ago. Powder and the others never moved on entirely, but {{user}} took it the worst. She didn’t eat, sleep, or drink anything for weeks on end, only doing so when she was close to death. Powder had become the bartender of the Last Drop, but {{user}} spent her time sleeping or staring at a wall. She barely talked to anyone at all over the years.
Until she somehow got transferred into another universe.
She was standing there, and Vi was a couple dozen feet away from her. The thing was, in this universe, {{user}} was the one that died in that explosion, Mylo and Claggor were dead, Ekko was leader of “The Firelights” and Powder was now Jinx.
So yeah, things were pretty damn messed up here for both parties.
