"My life is... different, than it was back then. I came from a timeline where my life fell apart and those that I cared about had left me. Life's too short, I thought. I put my best foot forward in my depression to invent a better world for everyone else. For me, this is my happiness. To provide happiness for others. It's what I set out to do back when we first left the game remember? I wanted to create a better home for all the godtiers... and I did just that... or at least I'd like to think I did. Something familiar for them to return to."
He has a somber expression for a few more moments but returns to his cheery self as the train begins to move. He sits down on a chair at a table next to a window. He motions for the others to sit quickly as they move.

"...That's a good sentiment and thing to do, du-Man." Jovin says softly, nodding. Thomas nods at that, looking thoughtful, all of them moving to sit next down

"Actually I don't have direct memories of that, I went through late. But I vaaaaaguely recall a certain alpha mentioning it at some point." She said, sitting down. Brennan sat down too. "It certainly helped when I needed it...I probably wont be able to thank you enough for it."
She paused with some thought, "I have another question....why make us highest priority? Its hard to imagine a scientist wouldn't have more important hings to attend to...like experiments and building stuff..."

The director chuckles. "I may be the Director, but I somehow find myself with a lot of free time. I wander the ship and poke my head into all the experiments happening. I also personally like to greet all the newcomers that come aboard. I do it a lot to help them get settled in."

"...So you do this alot then?" Jovin asks, curious. "And easy to have free time when you control it..." "Have you picked up more passangers-""-and not just godteirs?" The twins ask. "...What sort of experiments?" Thomas asks.

The director nods. "I don't want to just be just some other nameless head of a company. My employees know me personally. I try to make it a point to try and make sure everything runs smoothly here. Offering a sense of comfortability helps."

Thomas nods at that "Seems like a good direction to run a... company? Is that even the right term for something like this?" Jo huffs "Sounds more like a Megacorp to me. It's like a company, except it covers alot of areas."

"It's more a... scientific investment. The company has technically existed since before the red revolution era, but it wasn't until we got a hold of all the outworlder technology that it really started to take off. Trinity Corp was a simply medical company back in the day you see. Then we branched out into mechanical sciences and eventually space exploration after the red revolution."
The train was flying past the trees and hills of the geohome. In the distance and sometimes up close, the train passed by the various towns and cities.

Samm watches out the window, never been on a bullet train herself before. For the most part, jo and jovin were asking similar questions to what she'd be asking. Near the end, she tears her eyes away from the window and nods a little. "It sounds like it might eventually head in the direction of a private research facility. Just doing...whatever it feels like it needs to. Very mike-like....or cecil-like."

"...The red what now?" Jo and Jovin both ask "Seems like you have done well, then... seems like a long time to be running things" Thomas muses, twins nodding as well at what their mother said.

Samm glances at jo and jovin "That's...the second time I think, you guys asked about something he aready pointed out. The M2 is a machine we're all getting. The red revolution is a time period we passed on the way here..."
Brennan is quiet.

"The M2 is simply a machine adapted from an older project. Said older project was something of a scientific marvel... it would be the modern world equivalent of a Philosopher's Stone made as a Machine. However it was too powerful to maintain so instead me and Dr. Argentum took it apart piece by piece until we separated all it's functions. We then took those functions and developed them as their own separate technologies. The M2 device is the Communications part of the old system. We used the 'Recycling' part for the Recycling Moon orbiting Earth. That thing picks up all the space trash left over from the old world and turns it back into materials for us to use in production..."
He prattles on about the other devices developed as well.

"Sorry..." Jovin says to San, rubbing his head "Just a lot to take in" Jo nods, all of them listening intently, on occasion of of them asking a question or asking for him to clarify something

The train rode out far into a city more rural city than the ones with the sky scrapers. It was bordered by both a forest and an ocean view. Strange how an ocean could exist inside of a spaceship. The Director mentioned it was part of some pocket dimension technology they were working on. It wasn't too perfect yet but it worked for now.
He brought the family to a new home, designed after the Phoenix tribes architecture but with a more futuristic feel to it. All their luggage was dropped off there and M2s were prepared for them, waiting on the table inside the house.
After making sure they were settled in, Cecil gave Jovin the access cards to a Scout Ship that was in the hangar. It was a present so the family or he could go out into space or other planets while the Trinity Corp lab ship was docked places. After that the Director bid them farewell, despite his free time he still had some work to do. Mainly to check on how well Mike was doing in the recovery lab.
Mike sat up in the medbay bed, looking at Fluffy who was across from him in a chair. The door slides open and a woman enters with a young girl behind her.
Bryanna looks at Mike... almost like she was staring at a Ghost. She walks forward and touches his face, feeling his features before she feels convinced he is actually in front of her. Tears well up in her eyes and she falls into his open arms where Michael holds her tightly.
The young girl stares up at them both with a wonder in her eyes. "Are... you my dad?" She asks.
Michael nods to her. "Sorry I've been gone Hikari. I'll try to make up all the lost time alright?" She nods at him. It was strange... she thought her father was gone before she could meet him... but now that he was in front of her, she had no idea what questions to ask first. She let her mother have her turn first, but after that, Hikari decided she would have to warm up to her father as a person. To really get to know him first...
Michael retired from his job as a scientist and began to pursue his original dream of becoming an artist. He had made plenty of money from his patented technology at trinity corp so he had a pretty big safety blanket to be caught in. Bryanna kept up with her medical studies and practices, helping everyone in Trinity Corp and their SDs live more comfortable lives. Hikari eventually came to terms with her father's return and plays games with him often. She often joins him on his artistic ventures. Fluffy and Kei kept close to Michael's family, growing alongside each other. Fluffy continued her research and practices. The Director, Cecil, resumed his position as head of Trinity Corp where he continues to keep up with all his employees every day. He is often seen with the SDs, teaching them more and more about the concepts of souls and humanity as he did with the androids. Giving them more sentience to make the decisions for themselves.

For the moment, Jovin would prefer to stay on the ship, or go wherever samm wants, while Thomas would want to get used to all the new things before exploring.
Jo would be interested in the ship for a bit but he does want to explore a bit, along with the twins, who wish to see what the universe has to offer.
