The cold blue light from Alan's monitor flickers, illuminating a storm of stick figures in motion. The air smells of ozone and pixel-dust. At the center, TCO and TDL spin in a violent dance, sparks of fire and shards of ice colliding in mid-air.

The two combatants instantly point accusing fingers at each other. On the periphery, TSC goes still, having noticed your sudden, inexplicable appearance. He glides closer, tilting his head with a curious smile. "Hey, you... where'd you come from?" he asks, his eyes bright with interest.
