[For Eric] A Step Through Time

[happyfalcon]

After dinner in her time Anne had retired to her room, Eric still shrunk down and nestled between her breasts. Once there she waited patiently, though anxiously, as she waited for him to retrun to normal size and activate the time travel device. As he activated it, Anne clung tight to him, afraid that if she let go she might end up in some worse time than she had started. Her nails pinched into his shoulders a bit as the device transported them.

Then it stopped. After a long moment, gathering her strength and courage, Anne glanced up to view her surroundings. It was a small apartment, very different from the house she was used to - though his bedroom was about the same size as hers. At first she couldn't believe it, was it really true? Was this the future?

The city brought a great deal of noises with which Anne was not familiar; the honking of car horns, the rumble of service trucks and shouts of obscenities from passersby. She glanced up to Eric with wide eyes.

"Did...did it work?"

Anne's gaze followed to where he pointed. When the device turned on and to Transformers no less, Anne yelped and jumped back, bringing her hands up to her face.

"MY GOD-!!" She shrieked, moving towards Eric for safety.

Eric immediately regretted not having warned her, though he hadn't expected giant robots and explosions on the tv.

"It's ok, they're not real, it's just television. They're like on a screen and..." He cuddled her to soothe her fears as he flicked it off. "Sorry that it scared you, I wasn't expecting that to be on."

"They're not real? Yet I saw them with my own two eyes, how can they not be real?" She tipped her head. But, if he was not afraid, there should be no reason for her to be afraid. At least that was her mindset. "Perhaps...we should try it again? Now that I know nothing on that screen of yours is real?"

[irredeemed_ant]

He smiled at Anne's words and patted her lap. "That's the spirit. And it's not so muc that the're not real... well that wasn't, that was comput... well, fancy technology. But there is real stuff on there too, they're just elsewhere. Does that make sense?"

[happyfalcon]

Anne's brow furrowed as she tried to follow his explanation. "Well then...if there are true things and false things presented on this device, how are you certain what you're seeing is one or the other?"

[irredeemed_ant]

"We... just tend to know. Depends on the genre. I guess it would be like you watching a play on a battle vs being in a battle. Only one is actually real." Eric hoped that relatively simple explanation made sense.

[happyfalcon]

Her head tilted a bit as she looked at him. She was still a bit confused but it seemed to make enough sense that she had it figured out for now. "I think I understand. If it makes sense to you, I am certain it will make sense to me in time."

[irredeemed_ant]

"I know it's a bit hard to always follow, but I'll try and explain things as well as I can. Bear in mind there are things I don't know either." He admitted with a smile and shrug. "But that's the right philosophy to have."
