It'd be funny if he broke a mirror. The Mage Hand appears - it really is this big fucking hand. It traverses across the gap to the other platform and taps on the mirror. But Lucas doesn't notice or respond. His adventure...
The time now is 11:50. That's weird.
The second hand on the clock ticks forward over and over, but ends up falling back when it goes. Forward - back - forward - back, like it's stuck.
The Mage Hand swoops into the other non-Mimic chest. It grabs something...? It pulls out a wide, golden bracelet which fits on the forearm. It will bring this back to her.
11:45. The second hand keeps attempting its forward ticks, only to be kept from going ahead through time. One. One. One. One.
Godmods Kate into doing what she will probably do which is send the Mage Hand back over to the clock. Which hands (of the clock) do the Mage Hand try to mess with? Hour? Minute? Second?
There aren't any designs on the bracelet, and she can't feel any particular magical vibes. The inside, however, has a little inscription: Tyme flowe and ebbes / thrugh werking fyngers.
The Mage Hand pushes on the minute hand of the clock face, urging it to go forward. The minute hand shifts, though stubborn and somewhat resistant. It's pushed ahead to 12:10, speeding through twenty-five minutes.
The second hand is stuck trying to go forward, but it always ends up ticking back over and over. The minute hand very slowly is inches counter-clockwise now, and before long, it's 11:44 instead of 11:45.
The scenes in the mirror bothchange again for the two of you.
They could try to see if the Mage Hand would get them across...
The Mage Hand works on the second hand on the clock. It is very stubborn and doesn't seem, at first, like it will adjust, but then suddenly, it shifts forward without going back and becoming stuck.
It starts its quick rotation around the clock again, second by second. It's 11:45 again.
The scenes in the mirrors change again, but this time, they play out a littledifferently.
[ DID MY TAG NOT GO THROUGH... He watches this and they can't hear them (mirror) i think? So he's like hmmmm watches Scien get kicked. ]
Real or not, I'm sure Scien's fine.
[ Anyway, ]
Did we want to try using your hand to get one of us to the other side? I'll probably go into the mirror afterwards and hope I end up with them to help.
[ unsure. but whatever's going on with nona's, it looks like a better situation than "literally everyone is dead," so that's a bit more unambiguously good. ]
I can try...
[ the hand will come over and try to lift gojo up. can it do so... does it seem like it can hold him well enough to carry him over?
The Mage Hand has Lucas's strength level, so it swoops down to scruff Gojo by the back of the shirt and lift him up and away. It traverses over the gap to carry him to the other platform where the clock, second mirror, and second chest are located.
The pit below him is a chasm of pitch-black nothingness. There aren't any lights, no stars, no silhouettes, no rocks, no floor, no nothing. It's empty, existence-eating space. Entropy. He knows without a doubt if he falls into this pit, he will be wiped from all universes.
The Mage Hand gently puts him down on the other platform and then returns once more to Kate.
[ if it could carry gojo, it should have no problem carrying kate, who is much lighter. and so, she will attempt the same thing with herself. we've gotten so much mileage out of this mage hand. ]
Not sure why the most annoying, most stupid people receive all of the luck in the world... Irritating.
The Mage Hand plucks Kate up in the same fashion it had Gojo, by the scruff of the back of the clothes. It begins traversing across this horrific, bottomless pit, and it gets almost halfway before it just
gives out and vanishes into the air, burdened by too much weight.
Gojo watches Kate plummet immediately down into the dark chasm between the two platforms. If she screams, it is yet another cut-off TikTok scream. Kate vanishes out of existence.
[ HELP... Abandons the mirror and goes to the edge to look down.
Man.
He will go check the door real quick and see if it can open and no matter the result for this he's just going to go back to the chasm and also jump in. ]

You mean, we might push them onward so they can get out...?
[ she looks to the mirrors, then up to the clock. weird. ]
... I'm willing to try.
no subject
[ Hmm. ]
Think you can move the hand on the clock with your hand? If nothing comes out of that, we should head in, too.

What!? No... Did we do that?
no subject
I think we did. Time moved forward in the mirror, too.

Let's try rewinding back?

Okay... that's better. I think. Okay.
