i am the oncoming storm

There are three Bells in Milliways.

They want a fourth. A fifth. A sixth. A seventh.

And then Downside is going down.

"Some effect on Shell Bell's mood," she reports, "but getting Sherlock has a much bigger one. No effect on you all coming out eventually, that's still as certain as it gets."

"...I get out too, right?"

Shell Bell wastes no further time in dooring to Atlantis and calling for Sherlock.

"Yep," says Mary.

(Meanwhile, Tony is chatting happily with Jane.)

Sherlock appears when summoned.

"We've figured out how to move from place to place without waiting for Milliways," murmurs Shell Bell, "and got everybody together, but Stella's precog says whatever happens I'm not going to have a fun time of it, even though I'm just sitting here to hold the door and bail them out if necessary. Will you stay with me?"

"Link Sherlock up too, Sue," suggests Juliet.

"Of course," she says, hugging Shell Bell.

Hugs!

"What else, before Aegis and Amariah go in, can anyone else think of anything?"

Heads shake.

Aegis looks at Amariah, and they go in, and they wish to be undetectable by the admin.

It does not work.

Nothing doing, not even an arrow'll go. Catacombs for us, says Aegis. We want Bells, Charlies, Renées, Sues - Whistles? - Sherlocks, Tonies, who else?
