Rediscovery O'Clock: A BFDIRP-ITFT Crossover Story

a. It's Time To

"..."

I stay silent as the other people (whom I do not know at all) talk about things that don't relate to me. I, knowing I have no friends here, I deploy the portal I never wanted to see again. And before I think, I step through.

b. Not Him Again...

<CH 57>

*enters via dot portal*
*nobody is around*

"No one here... huh."

*Clock spawns in front of her*
⏰: *rings loudly*

"c-clock??"

⏰: "Hello, 🅿️olka Dot!"

ugh.

"what do YOU want?"

⏰: "Nobody is here anymore."

"...what...?"

⏰: "you don't remember, silly Polka Dot?"

"...what are you TALKING about? I don't remember WHAT?"

⏰: "Your fun little portal thingy sent all our friends away!"

"wh-huh??"

...

"where are they?"

⏰: "i don't know" :]

"you are never any help, ugh."

he's never any help.

ugh.

⏰: "yay!!"

"I... I- I need answers!"

"...I've seen Sun..."

⏰: "THE Sun must have been taken to where you were! wow! hoorayyyyOKAY!"

"really thought I couldn't have figured that out..."

⏰: *dancing in an unnecessarily jovial manner*

"can I get ONE ANSWER?!"

⏰: "How would I know?"

...uh... yeah... asking Clock was not the right idea.

"wh- right."

⏰: "I already told you, I don't know!"

"wh- I guess I'll have to do it myself... yay."

⏰: "It IS your fault, so YAY!!! yes."

"okay... no need to reassure me... I know.

*mumbling* "I can't make any other friends anyways."

⏰: "I'm not surprised, hahaha!!! *watch beeps*

⏰: "1... 2... 3... 4..."

⏰: "ITS TIME TO SOAR! *flips all the way across the planet and lands right back where he was*

...this thing is WAAAY too quirky.

"I hate you, by the way."

⏰: "what a FUNNY JOKE!"

*pushes Polka Dot back through the open portal*

"th-THAT WASN'T A DAMN J-"

c. That Was Unpleasant, In A Way

Nope. Never going back there. Whatever. I'd like to find my friends...

...so I go to my room.

I set up residency in a small building by the cliff. It had a bed and a desk and ... most importantly, a whiteboard. I began to draw a research project-looking table and chart on the whiteboard with an old marker. I listed found people, channels to check, and maybe... eh- nevermind. Uh... where was I? Oh, right.

d. Much-Needed Rest

I try to get things off my mind by laying in my bed. All that did was leave me alone with my thoughts. And... let's say... I did not want to deal with them alone.

(AUTHOR'S NOTE: [] MEAN THOUGHTS)

[*repeating voice of Clock* "it IS your fault, so YAY!!!"]

[ugh. I really haven't seen many of these channels in a while...]

[maybe I can... call it a rediscovery... right... just a little field trip to explore my arsenal of portals.]

[it's my portal, it's my job to fix its doings.]

*yawn*

*shuts eyes and eventually falls asleep*
