Featuring: Nicholas, Maki, & a very confused rest of &TEAM.

*****
"K might be the Time God."

*****

📍Scene 1: The Forbidden Remote

It starts, like all disasters do, with Nicholas and Maki unsupervised.

Nicholas: "It was just sitting there! Glowing! Screaming 'push me!'"
Maki: "It literally said DO NOT PRESS in five languages."
Nicholas: "Exactly. Suspicious."

They stare at the remote on the practice room couch.
It's silver, clunky, and clearly cursed. There's even a sticky note on it that reads:
"For experimental use only. Love, Management."

Nicholas: "What if it's like... a vending machine remote?"
Maki: "Or a self-destruct button."
Nicholas: "Only one way to find out."
Maki: "...Oh no."

Click.

⏱️ Scene 2: Time Warp Trauma

The air shimmers like a microwave on Red Bull.
Suddenly, they're standing in the exact same room—
—but now Yuma is six years old and trying to punch a plushie.

Baby Yuma: "YOU TOOK MY CHEESE SNACK!!"
Maki: "What timeline is this?!"
Nicholas: "I don't know but he's still aggressive."

They hit the button again.

🌪️ Scene 3: Teleportation Terrors

WHOOSH.
Now they're in the kitchen.
Jo is dressed like a pirate.
Harua is wearing a toga.
There's a blender on fire.

Jo (wielding a spatula): "Did you come for my treasure, traitors?"
Harua (dead serious): "We must appease the breakfast gods."
Nicholas: "Is this the future??"
Maki: "Or a fever dream."

Blender explodes. They press the button again.

👗 Scene 4: Fuma's Outfit Parade

Every timeline shift drops them somewhere new, but one constant remains:

Fuma always appears. In progressively worse outfits.

Time 1: Fuma in a full clown suit. Time 2: Fuma in a wedding dress. Time 3: Fuma in a banana costume, holding a latte. Time 4: Fuma with a mullet wig and glitter mustache.

Fuma: "I don't know what's happening, but I feel fabulous."
Nicholas: "We are 72% sure you're a fixed point in the multiverse."
Fuma: "Slay."

🌀 Scene 5: Temporal Breakdown

They end up looping the same hallway for ten straight minutes.
Each time they run into K, who says a different cryptic thing:

"Reality is a construct." "The fish remember." "We never left the dream." "Your debit card has expired."

Nicholas: "K might be the Time God."
Maki: "...We have to unplug the universe."

💥 Scene 6: Final Button Push

After landing in a version of the dorm where everything is made of marshmallows, Maki loses it.

Maki: "We're stuck in Willy Wonka's nightmare."
Nicholas: "There is no God. Only Remotes."

They press the button

🕳️ Scene 7: The Dinosaur Detour

CLICK.
They're suddenly in a dense jungle.
A T-Rex roars in the distance.

Nicholas: screaming "MAKI, WHY IS THERE A DINOSAUR?!"
Maki: "WHY IS IT LOOKING AT ME LIKE I'M A CHICKEN NUGGET?!"
Nicholas: "I'M NOT BUILT FOR THIS ERA!"

Fuma appears... in safari gear.

Fuma: "I studied paleontology for three hours on YouTube. I got this."

They hit the button before Fuma tries to ride the T-Rex.

🎩 Scene 8: The Victorian Disaster

POP.
They land in a Victorian ballroom. Everyone is in corsets and waistcoats.

Nicholas: "Am I wearing lace?!"
Maki: "Why are you SERVING in that cravat though?"

Fuma floats in on a penny-farthing.

Fuma: "I challenge you to a duel—for drama."
Nicholas: "You're not even holding a weapon."
Fuma: "My sharp wit is enough."

The lights flicker. They press the button again before someone dies of poetic longing

🚀 Scene 9: The Space Saga

ZOOM.
Now they're in space. In matching silver suits.

Maki: "Okay but we look cute in zero gravity."
Nicholas (drifting): "I can't breathe. I think I'm allergic to the future."

Fuma appears again—dressed as an alien overlord.
His antennae wiggle.

Fuma: "Bow to your Space Husband."
Maki: "You've gone too far this time."
Nicholas: "I'm about to float away forever, and you're flirting?!"

They smack the button before the wedding music starts.

🛏️ Scene 10: The Lazy Timeline

This time, everything's... peaceful. The dorm is spotless. No noise.
Jo is calmly sipping tea.
Taki is reading a book.
Harua is folding laundry.
Fuma is wearing normal clothes.

Nicholas: "Are we dead?"
Maki: "No. We're in the timeline where none of us cause chaos."
Both: shudder in horror
Nicholas: "Hit it."

🧓 Scene 11: Future Them

They're old. Like, wrinkly and yelling at the TV old.

Nicholas: "Why are we in sweaters? Who made soup?!"
Maki: "Is that... future us?"
Old Nicholas (grumbling): "Back in my day, remotes stayed in drawers."
Old Maki: "And Fuma wore ONE normal outfit a year. It was a holiday."

Fuma strolls in, now in a full samurai robe with a parrot.

Fuma: "I time-traveled too much. I collect identities now."

They don't even ask. Click

🛋️ Scene 12: Back to Normal?

They land back in the practice room.

Same couch. Same snack wrappers.
The remote is gone.
So is Baby Yuma.
Jo walks in—not dressed as a pirate.

Jo: "Where have you two been?"
Nicholas: "How long were we gone?"
Jo: "...You never left."
Fuma walks in, still in the banana costume.

Fuma: "Nope. I definitely remember the wedding dress part."
Maki: "So... are we cursed now?"
K (from another room): "That wasn't a remote. That was my universal TV controller."

Nicholas: "WHAT KIND OF TV DO YOU OWN?!"
K: "The multiverse one. It gets good reception."
