Euro, great picture. I agree that it's the best one so far.

I really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really like Pro's idea, and I'd like to do it as soon as possible and for as many time as the story itself dictates. It's one of those status quo shaking ideas. We don't really know how the characters interact until they're put in a situation like that. When they come back to earth maybe the normal status quo would be restored, but the characters would have changed.
But then again, I don't plan to have any secondary characters, so not making interludes would not affect me in the least. As for those that need the interludes, what about solo threads? And TTT, if Axel developes his powers, maybe while trying to do something to find the team and bring it back home he could end up accidentally switching places with Mason. Just an idea.
