Chapter Text
When Makoto wakes up it’s silent, which is odd, since the last thing he remembers is falling asleep at his desk. He groans as he slowly sits up, his mind practically blank. Though what’s more confusing is the fact that when he awakens, he isn’t even at his desk. Instead he’s seated in a comfortable chair in a brightly lit room, somewhere he doesn’t recognize.
Panic starts to seep in until he really gets a good look at the space he’s found himself in, and that’s when he notices something.
The area reminds him a lot of a theater. In front is a large screen, a large section of seats and when he looks to the back of the theatre he can see five doors. Each one with some kind of symbol covering them. In a back corner is a space that resembles something like a concessions stand.
He gets up from the seat he awoke in, before walking back to investigate the doors near the back, the first one is a greenish color, bearing the Hopes Peak Academy crest.
The next one is a wooden door simply with what looks like a shooting star and a pine tree on the door.
On the next door, a music box is inscribed on the door, with what looks like three gems above it, each gem is a different color, one being pink, one blue and the other is green.
The fourth door has an inscription of a staff with an owl on top, though there’s another symbol, one that he doesn’t know how to explain, so he moves on to the last door.
The very last door has what looks like a gold colored rose, with a gun over it.
He quickly gives up attempting to decipher what the doors or symbols on them could mean, he goes back to the first one, as it's the one he feels will give him a bit of clues since he recognizes the Hopes Peak crest. He reaches out for the handle on the door only to realize he can’t actually open it, no matter how much he tugs on the door.
“Come on!” He gives another sharp tug on the door, falling back as he loses his grip, huffing a bit as he lands on the ground.
Getting up, he prepares to try the same with one of the other doors only to stop as he hears a voice from behind him.
“W-where am I?!”
He jumps a bit, he hadn’t even noticed that someone was there, maybe they had appeared while he was investigating the doors? He turns, a few feet away is a young girl with curly brown hair in what looks like a witch costume, he watches for a moment as she looks around, not noticing him as she calls out.
“Mama! Eda?! King!”
For a moment he wonders if he should approach, he hates the idea of letting her freak herself out about their current situation, and he also knows that approaching her will actually help their situation. If they both ended up here together they may as well work together to figure it out.
A small part of him almost wonders if she’s behind it, but the clear panic in her voice and on her face quickly makes that doubt vanish. He walks over to her, she must pick up on his footsteps quickly because she turns with wide eyes to watch him.
He walks up to her, “excuse me?”.
She turns, with a slight jump, apparently she hadn’t even noticed that he was there.
“Hi, sorry I couldn’t help but overhear, you don’t know where we are either?”.
“No, no idea,” she shakes her head at him.
“Do you remember anything from before you woke up here?”.
The girl furrows her brows a bit, clearly trying to remember before shaking her head.
“Nothing that should’ve led to me being here, last thing I remember is working on the p-“
Oddly enough, she stops speaking, as if something forced her to stop. She seems confused too as she furrows her eyebrows with a confused look.
“Huh, that was odd,” She says with a frown, “well than I was working on, something” she says vaguely as if testing out if she’ll get interrupted again and simply gives him a curious look as nothing happens.
“That's definitely strange,” Makoto frowns, and it’s silent for a moment, both of them trying to think of what to do about their current situation, “hey, since we’re stuck in this situation together, may as well introduce ourselves right?”.
She seems to brighten at that, giving him a big smile, “My name is Luz Noceda!”.
“The names Makoto Naegi”.
He reaches out taking the girls hand, as they shake hands he hears two more voices from behind him.
Two young kids, a girl and a boy stand a few feet away, Makoto notices that the pine tree on the boys hat and the shooting star on the girls sweater match the symbols on the door.
“Great, we really can’t escape the weirdness can we?,” says the boy, clearly not noticing that there’s two others in the room.
“Guess not,” The girl says, “The last thing I remember is falling asleep on the bus back, so I don’t know how we ended up here”.
That’s when the boy shrugs and looks over noticing Luz and Makoto watching them, he hesitates for a moment before walking over to the two of them.
“Hey, you two wouldn’t happen to be behind this, are you?,” he asks, giving the two of them a frown.
“What?! No! We’re just as confused as you,” Makoto says, waving his hands a bit in defense, next to him Luz just nods.
“Yeah, we only woke up a little bit ago,” Luz says.
“So all of us just woke up in this dark theatre, with no reason?”.
They all jumped a bit at that voice and look over to see a tall girl with curly brown hair, with leaves in her hair and wearing what looks like armor.
“Ha, sorry didn’t mean to scare you guys,” The girl gives a bashful smile as she moves to scratch her head, “Probably should’ve spoken up sooner”.
“How long where you there?”
“Not long actually, I think I arrived at the same time as the twins actually, I just didn’t want to interrupt,” She shrugs, “so no one knows what’s happening?”.
In response she simply gets a shake of the head from the others making her sigh, “well may as well introduce myself, I’m Anne”.
“Nice to meet you Anne, I’m Makoto”
“Luz!”
“I’m Dipper, this is Mabel”
“Nice to meet you guys”
“Actually Anne, what were you doing before you ended up here?”, Luz speaks up, looking over at the girl.
“Oh, well last thing I remember is a-“, she frowns when something seems to stop her from speaking.
“Yeah I was wondering if that would happen, it happened to me earlier,” Luz sighs before looking around at the group.
“I fell asleep in class, not sure if I mentioned that,” Makoto says.
“Alright, I just thought knowing that would be helpful, You think this is the last of us?,” Luz asks, and Makoto shrugs in response to her question. There’s a moment of silence in the group before they hear a frantic cry.
“MAMA! PAPA!”
They all turned to the voice, to see a young girl, no older than maybe 4 or 5, with pink hair and what look like little cones on her head. She’s frantically looking around, her eyes wide.
They all freeze, unsure how to approach her until Makoto approaches, a gentle smile on his face as he kneels to the girls height.
“Excuse me? Hi! My name is Makoto Naegi, can you tell me your name?”.
She shakes her head frantically, clearly distressed at being separated from her parents.
He looks at the others for help before looking back at the younger girl, he can’t blame her for her distress, “I know this is frightening but I promise all of us want to figure out what’s going on, and the best way to do that is know who we are working with right?”.
The girl watches him for a moment, and it’s almost off putting the way she’s watching him, as if she’s trying to read him.
The girl was quiet for a moment, but then she spoke up in a voice that was quiet yet hesitant, “My name is Anya” And he notices that her attitude seems to change completely, she no longer is distressed, though she may be slightly upset, but she is smiling now.
“It’s nice to meet you Anya!”
“Were you with your parents before you arrived? Do you think they are here too?,” Luz joins in asking questions to Anya as she also kneels down to talk to the girl.
“Mhm! Anya was with mama and papa, watching cartoons!”.
“Alright, so all of us were doing something that gives no explanation of how we could’ve possibly ended up here,” Dipper says, bringing his hand up to scratch his head, only to frown when his hand hits his hat. Taking it off, he sees that the hat Wendy gave him had been replaced by his usual hat. Though before he can question it someone’s speaks.
“Ah, you’ve all arrived”
A new voice echoes throughout the room, one that they can’t find a source for as they look around.
“Who are you? Why have you brought us here?,” Anne speaks up first, taking a defensive stance as the voice speaks.
“None of you are in danger, I promise you that, I’ve made sure there’s no source of danger here, but you all are gathered here for important reasons”.
“You are here to prevent something big, something that could prevent all of you from going through the adventures you’ve gone through,” The voice continues.
“What is it?,” Luz finally asks after a moment.
“I wouldn’t want to give away too much, but a war is brewing, if it happens this will eventually lead to a more large-scale tragedy that will happen,” Surprisingly, Makoto notices how Anya’s eyes widen at the mention of a war.
“One that is started by one of your groups,” Makoto feels dread filling him, he’s not sure why but the ominous mention of a tragedy makes him feel sick.
“How will this happen?,” He asks, his voice is quiet.
“It’s complicated, but I promise you’ll learn more as the viewings go on, just trust me, I am here to help you solve this”.
“So you want the five of us to prevent this big catastrophe?,” The five look around at each other as Luz speaks up.
“Oh no, Your friends and loved ones are just through those doors in the back, to keep the theater from getting overcrowded. They’ll be coming out when I feel their introduction is most important”.
“Right,” There’s a bit of relief in knowing that they aren’t alone, but still the idea of stopping a whole war?
“Is that why we can’t reveal certain information to each other? Does it act as some kind of censor?,” Mabel’s voice cuts through his thoughts, he looks over at her before looking back towards the screen.
“It wouldn’t be good to unload tons of information at once, it’s best if you gain all the information as you watch, because trust me, it is a lot,” The voice continues to explain.
The group seems satisfied with that answer, as they all just nod.
“You’re free to go to the back rooms for now, you’ll be summoned back once it’s time”
There’s a moment before they all start moving, starting to walk back to each of their designated back rooms. Though before Dipper and Mabel can get very far, the voice is there again.
“Actually, Dipper stay for a moment”
He turns and before he can question anything, there’s a new journal in his hands, one that looks exactly like the one that had been destroyed, he turns it over in his hands.
“Wait what- how?!”
“Magic, you’ll want to keep track of everything that’s going on”.
He flips through the journal, it’s not the original, he can tell because while some pages are intact, a lot of them are simply blank.
But holding it again, it’s nice, even if it’s not the original and even if it’s temporary, it’s nice to have his journal back.
He looks over at Mabel, and with a smile they walk back to their waiting room.
——DanganRonpa——
Stepping through the door, Makoto is immediately greeted by his class, the large waiting room looks like one of the lounge rooms within Hopes Peak Academy, a large TV is mounted on a far wall with some couches and comfortable chairs surrounding it, near the back he can see a set of doors.
“Naegi!”
He turns at the call of his name to see Kyoko walking over to him.
“Kiri! This is uh, quite odd isn’t it?”
“I think odd doesn’t even begin to explain it,” The voice comes from Leon, who is sitting in one of the chairs with his legs crossed.
“Yes, one moment we’re in class, and suddenly summoned into some void only to be told something ominous?,” Mondo huffs, his arms crossed.
“I’m telling ya! It’s aliens or something,” Unsurprisingly, the claim comes from Hagakure.
“Hiro, please stop with the conspiracy stuff for five minutes!,” Asahina groans, a few classmates snicker as the interaction.
Soon enough, he can confirm that the entirety of his class is present. He sighs, allowing them to continue their own conversations as he brings his focus back to Kyoko.
“So this is everyone?,” He asks, watching as she assumes her usual thinking pose, bringing her hand to her chin as she tilts her head.
“From what I can tell, yes, though the room seems quite large for just our class, a lot of seating for just the sixteen of us”
That’s when he suddenly feels something hit him on the head, he flinches and sees a paper on the ground in front of him. He picks it up and holds it up to read it, “This is not the last of the people from your group, but for now they will be, the others should be joining in a few days”
He has to assume it’s from the host, with a curious glance he looks around yet the host is nowhere to be seen.
“Others? Who could it be?”.
Makoto shrugs, “I guess the only thing we can really do is wait and find out, right?”
“I suppose waiting would be a good idea, right now we know very little about our current situation,” Kyoko says, then turns a bit to look at Makoto, “it’d be wise to try and find out more information before starting to panic or freak out about this”.
Makoto nods, giving her a small smile. He was grateful that she was able to be a voice of reason with everyone, it was one of the many things he admired about her.
“That’s definitely a good idea Kiri,” He smiles at her and looks back over at his classmates.
That’s when he notices something, Mukuro is standing off on her own, but oddly enough she’s dressed just like Junko, even sporting a pinkish blonde wig on her head. The two of them make brief eye contact before she quickly looks away.
Weirder than that though is, Junko is the only one of his classmates who is not currently present, he looks around a bit just in case he missed her but he doesn’t see her anywhere, he walks over to the door on the other side of the room and opening it he sees a dorm hallway.
He decides to briefly ignore whatever is going on with Junko and Mukuro, knowing there’s a small chance he’ll get many answers now.
“So we're basically in a replica of the Hopes Peak dorm building?,” He closes the door and looks over at Kyoko.
“Seems like it, I did a bit of investigating while you were in the theatre talking to those kids, I couldn’t go past that dorm area, but I wonder if at some point It could connect to the other rooms,” She says.
“That would make sense” he says, closing the door since there doesn’t seem to be much more he can do with investigating.
That’s when he notices someone standing at the back of the room.
The headmaster. Jin Kirigiri.
He’s not surprised to see that the headmaster is here, if the whole class is here then it only makes sense that the man running the school would be there too.
Yet with the presence of the headmaster comes that unspoken awkwardness that stems from both Kirigiris being in close proximity to each other. He sneaks a glance over at Kyoko.
Kyoko must know what’s on his mind, as she speaks up before he can even ask anything, “I asked the headmaster if he knew anything about what’s happening, but he knew just about as much as everyone else”.
He nods, he knows their relationship isn’t the worst now, after a year of attending hopes peak the two hadn’t fully reconnected yet Kyoko seemed more okay with having her father around.
But he also knows being in this type of situation with her father may be less than ideal.
“Well if we really can’t find anything else, I guess all we can do is-“, he’s interrupted as the voice of their host seems to enter the room, coming from no specific direction.
“You all will be introduced at once, so when it’s time feel free to all join the theatre”
——Gravity Falls room——
Dipper and Mabel step into what is a decently sized lounge area, there’s some bean bags and couches. A few decorations to give it a more woodsy vibe as well.
Stan and Ford are the first to notice them, they immediately rush over to them. Both of them going in for a hug.
“Kids!”
“Grunkle Stan!”
“Grunkle ford!”
“Hey kids, it's good to see you again, even if our current circumstances are a bit strange,” Ford says, giving each of the twins a pat on the head before pulling away from the hug.
“Sup dudes! I didn’t think we’d get a surprise reunion,” Soos says also walking up to the twins, followed by Wendy.
“I feel like we should be used to strange at this point”, Wendy says, giving the twins a smile, “Didn’t expect to see you guys again so soon”.
“We definitely weren’t either” Dipper says, “So what do you guys think about this?”.
“Well, as of now our host hasn’t given us any reason not to trust them, though that doesn’t mean we shouldn’t practice caution,” Ford says, after a moment of contemplating.
Dipper nods, that’s when he remembers something and his eyes widen a bit.
“Actually speaking of our host”, Dipper pulls out the replica journal holding it out to Ford, “they gave me this just before they had us come back here”.
“Interesting,” Ford takes it flipping through the pages as he inspects it before handing it back to Dipper.
“They said that making sure we keep track of everything we learn could be useful,” Dipper explains putting the journal back.
“Hm, well as helpful as that advice is, I still think we should watch out”
Dipper nods, then jumps a bit when Mabel gasps as she notices something behind Ford.
“WADDLES!”
The pig oinked as he quickly trots over to Mabel, who quickly scoops him up into her arms.
“I’m so glad you’re here waddles!,” Mabel squeals as she spins around with her pig, she stops though as she spots something.
Stanford Pines
S2:E11 Not What He Seems
Waddles
S1:E9/The Time Traveler’s Pig
“Hey Dipper”
He looks over at Mabel curiously only to see her gesturing to a few feet in front of them, where Candy, Grenda and Pacifica have gathered in a little circle
The twins exchange a glance before walking over so see what’s going on.
As they get closer they can see Pacifica fiddling with the hem of her cardigan, until she spots them and gives them a shy wave which makes Candy amd Grenda look over.
“Mabel!” The two girls cry out quickly embracing Mabel in a hug which she happily returns. She giggles as the three of them pull each other into a group hug.
Dipper looks over at Pacifica, giving her a smile, “so what was that about?”
“Don’t worry about it,” There’s a slight snap to her voice, and she quickly sighs, “Sorry, we were just talking about things, I was trying to apologize”.
“And how’d that go?,” He asks, it couldn’t have gone too badly, since Candy and Grenda didn’t seem to mind talking to her too much.
“Okay surprisingly, I think it’ll take some time for us to really be comfortable around each other though,” She says, and he’s pretty sure he can hear something like relief in her voice.
That makes sense, he can’t imagine they’ll be comfortable with each other just yet, but at least it’s a start.
“Hey I didn’t get to say it but, thanks for being at our party, it was nice to have you,” He says.
“Well duh, someone had to make that party interesting,” She says, smirking as she crosses her arms.
He laughs, glad that they could fall back into their usual banter, then he notices something around her neck.
“What’s this?,” He reaches out, taking the badge so he can look at it properly.
“Candy thinks it’s some kind of introduction badge, we talked about it a bit before you guys came in here”
Pacifica Northwest
S2:E10 Northwest Mansion Mystery
Candy Chiu
S1:E7 Double Dipper
Grenda Grendinator
S1:E7 Double Dipper
“Huh, so everyone has one of these?”
“I guess so”
“Mind if I go for a minute?” He asks, he doesn’t really want to leave her alone, especially since she doesn’t seem too comfortable with everyone just yet.
“I’ll be fine Dipper,” There’s a quiet huff as she just rolls her eyes at him, but she still gives him a small smile.
He nods and steps away ready to go investigate, first by walking over to where Wendy and her group have huddled up.
Tambry, Lee, Nate and Tompson
S1:E5 The Inconveniencing
Robbie Valentino
S2:E9 The Love God
“I don’t get why I’m being introduced so much later compared to the rest of you,” Robbie says, eyeing his badge, and holding onto Tambry’s badge so he can compare the two.
Dipper thinks about it, but his eyes widen as it hits him.
The society of the blind eye.
Did Robbie even remember their initial meeting? He knew of the one time that the memory gun had been used on the teen, but were there other times?
He cringes, “yeah uh, I’m not sure how much I can say but I think you’ll find out an answer to that question eventually”.
Robbie just stares at him, clearly confused before he scoffs, “Whatever”.
Dipper doesn’t say anything, he’s at least glad that the teenager stopped being so antagonistic towards him. They weren’t exactly friends or anything, but he was far more tolerable to be around now than he once was.
Fiddleford McGucket
S2:E7 Society of the Blind Eye
He stares at the episode title for a moment, it makes a lot of sense for it to be when McGucket is introduced. Though, he wonders if that’ll be hard for the man to relive, having to see yourself destroy your own mind must be hard enough but to relive it twice?
“Hey McGucket?”
“Hm? What is it?”
“Are you going to be okay? With seeing this again?”
“Ah don’t worry about me, kid,” The old man just laughs a bit, “besides I know what to expect, so it won’t be a surprise this time”.
He nods just a bit.
Once he’s taken note of everyone’s badges, he walks back over to Mabel and her friends.
That’s when a voice comes through the room, looking around he can find no direct source for the voice.
“If everyone is ready, you may join the main theatre now”
———Amphibia———
Anne stepped into a room that looked like a mix of a swamp and some random lounge space, some grass and plants but also a few chairs.
“ANNE!”
She hardly has time to react before the Planters run up to her, she pulls them into a big group hug.
Nearby stands Sasha and Marcy, Anne gives them a wave as the two walk over.
“Anne!”
“We were so worried! You just suddenly disappeared!”
“Sorry guys, didn’t mean to worry you,” Anne says, slowly standing as she looks around the waiting room, she can see a small handful of people talking amongst themselves.
That’s when she notices something around Marcy’s and Sasha’s necks, they looked a lot like badges.
“What are these?,” She asks, leaning forward to take a look at them.
“Who knows, we had them the moment we arrived,” Sasha explains with a shrug.
“I think they might be some type of introduction card, the host did say some of us would stay back here until they felt an introduction was good right?,” Marcy says, looking at her own card.
“They did, man, it seems like neither of you will be introduced for awhile”
“You were on Amphibia for awhile before we ended up finding each other,” Marcy says, looking at Sasha then back at Anne, “I can imagine why it would make more sense to have us come in later”.
Marcy Wu
S2:E6 Marcy at the Gates
“Honestly I’m fine with not being introduced for awhile, I was a jerk at first and honestly I’d rather not deal with everyone hating me at first,” Sasha said, her arms were crossed, she seems to almost close in on herself.
Anne gave her a comforting smile as she put a hand on her shoulder, “Hey, you’ve changed, they’ll see that”.
“Maybe,” It’s almost a mumble that comes out of her mouth, as if she doesn’t really believe the words Anne is saying.
Sasha Waybright
S2:E20 True Colors
“I’ll try to see if I can get people to withhold judgement from you for at least a little while,” Anne says, looking around she decides to talk to a few others. With a wave she steps away, allowing the Planters to talk with Marcy and Sasha.
Ivy Sundew
S1:E7 Dating Season
“Huh, wonder when this is, it can’t be when you two got together right? It feels way too soon,” Anne narrows her eyes, trying to take a guess.
“No, if I had to guess maybe when you and the others tried to convince us to get into a relationship with each other”
“Right, Ivy, I'm so sorry about that, that was a terrible idea,” Anne cringes at the reminder of that event.
“Awe come on Anne, it's fine! It was in the past,” Ivy giggles, waving off her worries.
“One-eyed” Wally Ribbiton
S1E:15 Wally and Anne
“You definitely appeared way sooner than this, so this must be-” she stops, her eyes widening a bit as she realizes what this must be referencing. She lets out a silent cheer “yes! Oh I’m so ready for them to see this!”
Maybe it was a little petty, but she was so excited to show the Planters how wrong they had been.
Mr. X
S3:E17 All In
Maddie Flour
S1E:17 Cursed!
Lady Olivia
S2:E6 Marcy at the Gates
General Yunan Longclaw
S2:E20 True Colors
She gives the four of them polite greetings as she checks their badges. As a certain title keeps popping up she only becomes more and more curious.
Captain Grimothy “Grime”
S2:E20 True Colors
“Huh, this must be a really important event if multiple people are being introduced at this time..” she mumbles.
An event so important that 3 different people will be introduced, what could it be?
“Anne!,” She looks up seeing her mom and dad walk up to her, “Oh we are so relieved! We were so worried when we woke up here and we couldn’t find you!”.
She gives them reassurance as she looks at their badges, but she stops.
The Boonchuys (Bee and Oum)
S3:E1 The New Normal
That’s when it hits her, that title, it must reference when they opened that portal, when she and the planters had escaped to the human world.
And when Marcy had been-
“Anne?”.
She jumps a bit, looking up to see her mothers concerned face watching her, “Are you alright?”.
She nods, only because she’s not even sure if she’d be able to say anything even if she wanted to.
She closes her eyes, forcing the images out of her mind.
She’s really not looking forward to reliving that.
——The Owl House——
Luz steps into the waiting room, the space seemed fairly comfortable with plenty of seating and even some spots for the palisman in the room.
“LUZ!”
“Sweet potato!”
Luz smiles as Amity practically jumps into her arms, the two of them spinning around for a moment laughing before Luz places her girlfriend back on the ground.
“Ugh you two sicken me,” the voice is teasing and looking up she sees Eda walking over to her with a smile.
“Eda!” Luz lets go so she can tackle the woman into a hug.
“Hey kid,” Eda ruffles her hair.
As Luz pulls away she notices something “woah wait uh Eda-“
“You asking about this?” She holds up her right arm and snorts, “yeah I assume it’s that spoiler thing the host mentioned, honestly I was pretty shocked when I woke up and suddenly had my arm again”.
Luz looks around curiously, she can see the rest of her friends gathered together, and Alador, Lilith and Hooty as well as her mom.
“Not only that, but some of us were given these weird badges, King and I don’t have one, but the others do,” Eda continues.
“Oh yeah!,” Amity holds out a badge for Luz to see.
Amity Blight
S1:E15 Understanding Willow
“They must be some kind of intro card” She says, and Luz can hear something in her voice that makes her frown.
“You okay, sweet potato?”.
“Yeah it’s just, I was trying to think of what event this could possibly reference, but it must be when I accidentally erased Willow's memories,” She sighs, fiddling with the badge in her hand.
“I don’t want to relive that Luz, I really don’t want everyone to see the person I once was”.
“You’re different now Amity, and I promise you everyone will see that,” Luz says, putting a comforting hand on her girlfriends shoulder.
Hooty
S1:E1 A Lying Witch and a Warden
The words seem to make Amity feel a bit better, “Still wish I could be introduced earlier though” she grumbles.
“You’re just mad you’ll miss out on smooch time with your girlfriend,” Willow teases as she walks up to them, and Amity immediately turns tomato red as she tries to deny Willow's accusation.
Willow Park
S1:E3 I was a Teenage Abomination
“Our Palisman came with us too! But it seems like they won’t be introduced for a while either,” Gus walks up, all the Palisman following him.
Palisman
S3:E2 For The Future
Stringbean immediately shoots for her, gently slithering around her so she can rest on Luz’s shoulder.
“Awe, hi bean,” Luz gently lets her palismans head, Making Stringbean gently nuzzle against her.
Gus Porter
S1:E3 I was a Teenage Abomination
She grins as she reads the title, she’s really so excited to have both of her best friends with her from the beginning. Though she still wishes Amity could be there too, Gus and Willow had been with her from the beginning and she couldn’t wait to see the journey they had all taken together.
Vee then joins their group, showing Luz her own badge.
Vee Noceda
S2:E10 Yesterday’s Lie
The title makes her frown a bit, but she chooses to ignore it in favor of knowing that Vee will be eventually joining them.
“I just hope no one gets the wrong impression of me at first, I know you told me about that one basilisk attack, and I really don’t want anyone to get the wrong idea,” Vee says shyly.
She cringes, she almost forgot that at she had in fact told Vee about the basilisk attack that happened at hexside, she’s really not looking forward to reliving that but she’s especially not looking forward to what the others will say.
“How fascinating, are we in some kind of pocket dimension? How separated are we from our worlds?,” Lilith walks up to them, looking around the waiting room with amazement.
Lilith Clawthorne
S1:E19 Young Blood, Old Souls
The title is certainly ominous but if it is referencing what she thinks it is, she can’t help but think it’s a bit fitting.
She just hopes everyone will give her cool aunt at least a bit of grace and try not to judge her too harshly. She knows Lilith still hasn’t forgiven herself for cursing Eda, she doesn’t want anyone to accidentally make it harder for her to move on.
Alador Blight
S2:E14 Reaching Out
“Huh, I didn’t really expect you to be here, no offense mister Blight!”
“None taken,” His response is short and quick, and Luz steps away as it’s quickly obvious the interaction is over.
She just gives him an awkward smile. It’s odd, she doesn’t really know how to interact stuff him. She knows his relationship with Amity and the Twins are slowly improving, but she still finds it hard to interact with him.
Raine Whispers
S2:E15 Them’s the Breaks, Kid
“You know it’s kind of a shame we won’t see something about you and Eda meeting, she won’t tell me the story!,” Luz says as she reads their badge, she huffs, she really can’t figure out what event the title is referencing.
Raine simply laughs, “well hey, if we don’t see it, I promise to tell you the full story,” They promise giving her a smile.
Luz squeals at that, which only makes Raine laugh.
Hunter
S2:E16 Hollow Mind
“Oh boy”
She can tell that Hunters trying so hard not to freak out, “They’re gonna see it, they’ll see everything we saw,” He whispers.
She nods, though she’s been trying to forgive herself for the revelation that she’d helped Belos, having to relive it is not going to be good.
“It’ll be fine, our friends already know everything,” She can’t figure out if the words are more for him or herself.
“I still don’t want them to see, and I don’t want to see it again”
“Me either”
Camilla Noceda
S2:E21 King’s Tide
The title gives her a sinking feeling. One that she’d rather not consider right now.
Because she knows what this must be referencing, when they got trapped in the human realm. When she’s spent months in a vicious cycle of self blame, she couldn’t stand the idea of reliving that.
It suddenly hits her that they are eventually going to see her die.
She nearly stops breathing, her eyes widening as panic sets in. She doesn’t want them to find out that way, she wants to tell them what happened herself.
But she’s not sure if she even can tell them.
——Spy X Family—-
“ANYAAA!”
Anya barely has time to step into the room before she is scooped up in Yor's arms, the woman holding her tightly.
“Mama!”
“Are you alright?! You aren’t hurt are you?,” Yor is frantically looking her over.
“Nope! Anya is okay!”
Despite the reassurance, Yor seems hesitant to actually put the girl down, but after a moment she does.
After being put down Anya looks around, nearby was Sylvia, Fiona and Loid having a quiet conversation.
Anya sneaks over quietly to overhear the conversation between the three adults.
“This could easily jeopardize Operation Strix, plus you’ll be found out as a spy,” Fiona bit her fingernail as she spoke.
“While that’s true, our host did say that the whole reason we’re here is to stop this war, I’m willing to take that risk if it means being a step closer to stopping what will happen,” Loid is standing with his arms crossed, his eyes narrowed as he speaks to Fiona.
“And what about the SSS being here?,” She argues back.
“I am concerned about them, but I’m sure if either of them were to try anything our host will simply intervene,” He says, and Anya doesn’t even need to read his mind to know he doesn’t fully believe what he’s saying.
“You seem awfully trusting of this situation”.
Handler then cut in, “I don’t think we have much of a choice then to trust what’s happening, but caution is still good”.
Anya stops listening, only because she hears a voice call for her.
“Anya!”
She turns towards the voice seeing Becky, Damian, Ewen, Emile and Bill in a circle.
She rushes over to them, smiling as she joins them.
“Your moms scary,” Emile is the first one to speak up.
“Yeah, when you weren’t in here, she kept ramming into the door, trying to break it,” Becky confirms with a nod.
Anya just nods, it wasn’t exactly a surprise to hear that, and then she notices a card wrapped around Damian’s neck, reaching out she moved closer to take it.
“Don’t touch me, shrimp!” He scowls, though she focuses on the card in her hand.
“What is this?”
“It seems like some sort of introduction card to me!,” Becky says, as she points to Damian’s and then holds up her own, “I recognize the events on them, kinda”.
Damian Desmond

S3:E7 The Red Circus
Becky Blackbell

Emile Elman
S2:E2 Damian’s Field Trip
Ewen Egeburg
S2:E2 Damian’s Field Trip
She could easily make a guess as to what each of these events were, except for the events for Emile and Ewen, which seem to be much later than the others.
“Honestly, I’m offended about how long I’ll have to wait, I want to be there with you Anya!,” Becky pouts.
“Patience, my lady,” Behind Becky is Martha, the woman is sitting on one of the chairs watching the interaction between the young kids.
Across from her is Mr. Henderson, who just sighs, “Impatience is inelegant, Miss Blackbell”.
Becky just groans in response.
Martha Marriott

Henry Henderson
S1: E4 The Prestigious schools interview
She hears a loud borf from behind her and turns to see Bond running over to her, he nearly tackles her to the ground as she squeals with glee and hugs him. She laughs as he proceeds to lick her face, gently pushing him away she sits up so she can look at his badge.
Bond
S1:E15 A New Family Member
She looks over towards the adults, the members of WISE are still in a little circle and if she focuses on them she can hear their thoughts as they look at their own badges.
Sylvia Sherwood “Handler”
S1: E14 DISARM THE TIME BOMB
After looking at everyone’s badges this must be referencing the bomb dogs, that’s the only thing I can really think of, if Bond is getting introduced right after.
Anya winces, as happy as she was that she had Bond, that was a day she was not looking forward to reliving. A day of escaping terrorists and trying so hard to stop a future where her papa died.
Fiona Frost “Nightfall”
S3:E12 Fight to the Death in the Sewers
I will not allow anyone to get near Twilight after his cover is exposed.
Anya crinkles her nose, “Weird lady is weird,” She mumbles.
Looking over at the SSS officers, she’s not even sure if she wants to begin to wonder what they’re thinking, honestly it’s probably for the best that she doesn’t know.
Chloe
S3: E12 Extreme Level 3 situation
“You know Yuri, glaring holes into the back of your brother-in-law's head isn’t going to help with this situation,” The woman sighs as she leans back in the seat.
“Oh please, he’s not good enough for my sister, he’s trash,” Yuri says, scowling.
Franky Franklin
S1:E1 Operation Strix
I don’t think anything good will come from both WISE and the SSS being here, it’s a recipe for disaster really.
Yuri Briar
S2: E3 Mission and Family
As much as I don’t want sis to know about me being part of the secret police. Hopefully this means I can get closer to finding out Twilight's identity and if I do I won’t hesitate to execute him on the spot.
Her eyes widen as she focuses on Yuri's thoughts.
It didn’t hit her until just now how bad this was, the SSS and Wise in the same place, what this would reveal.
They’d find out, they were going to find out papa was a spy. They were going to find out about WISE, the mission.
Everything.
They would learn mama was an assassin.
They would learn that she was a telepath
What would happen then? Would her family get angry at her for lying? Would they still want her?
Would they still even be a family?
“Anya?”
“Anya?!”
She doesn’t realize she’s started crying until there’s voices around her, she can hear Becky and Damian trying to comfort her, Becky’s hand is on her shoulder and she can see Damian hovering close to her as if trying to figure out how exactly to comfort her.
It’s only a few seconds before Yor is pulling her in a hug, “Oh, Anya sweetheart,” Her voice is gentle and comforting.
And then Loid is standing next to Yor, gently trying to calm her down as well.
It doesn’t take long before most who are in the room circle Anya in an attempt to comfort her.
——-Main Theatre——
One by one each group exits the waiting rooms, all exchanging curious glances with the other groups.
The largest group was the Danganronpa group, with all of class 78 as well as Jin Kirigiri.
Out of the gravity falls waiting room was Mabel, Dipper, Stan, Wendy and Soos.
Out of the Amphibia room is Anne and the Planters.
From The Owl House waiting room comes Luz, Eda and King.
Last was the Spy x Family group which simply consisted of Anya, Loid and Yor.
“Hey uh, am I seeing things or is that girl surrounded by frog people” Hiro asks, blatantly staring at the Planter family, only to receive a glare from Anne.
“Nope, those are frog people,” Leon says, nudging him.
“Hey now! Us frogs have names!,” Hop pop says, crossing his arms as he looks over at them.
“H-hey I meant no offense!,” Hiro defends, waving his hands in front of him.
“Huh,” Luz looked curiously at Anne’s group, “you think she got sent to another dimension too?”.
“Seems like it, but I’m not sure about the other groups, they seem pretty normal,” Eda says.
Dipper was already noting things in the journal he had been given, next to him Mabel just watched everyone else, she made a few brief introductions to others but stuck close to her brother.
Anya cringed at all the thoughts that she was being bombarded with, everyone’s minds were so loud it was hard to even know what she was thinking, she had finished crying but her eyes were still a bit red.
“Are you alright Anya?,” Yor asked as she leaned over, looking at Anya who was currently being carried by Loid.
“Hm? Anya is okay!,” She says, though she can’t really shake that fear from earlier, not that she could even admit it.
After a few minutes of small introductions everyone sits down looking towards the large screen at the front of the room.
“We will be starting with Spy x Family, the catalyst of the war that could keep other groups here from even existing,” The host starts.
“I will warn you, you will see some gruesome things, and there’s some topics that aren’t exactly appropriate and I will do my best to censor things here and there, but this warning should be kept in mind”.
There were a few hesitant nods from the audience, but no one said anything.
“Now, are you all ready?,” Though the question was aimed at the whole theater, the host's attention was clearly aimed at the three individuals seated near the center. Anya, Loid and Yor.
The three of them simply looked at each other, and after a few moments gave each other nods before looking back at the screen.
“Ready,” Loid was the one who spoke for the three of them.
With that confirmation, the theatre darkened and the screen turned on.
