Another Teaser for a future project

[Labster]

And thank you, BA. You should see the parts of this scene I haven't posted.

Yes we should!  Post now!!11!  Want more1!!
I'm afraid we're not going to get much more soon, because with talks of the blackouts, it feels like this won't happen in the first couple chapters.

*Elder.* Rei's eyes widened with realization. She had expected

Doug would somehow *create* a train with the song. She now

realized that Doug had done something else entirely. No matter

what it looked like, this was no mere machine, no mere construct

of magical power, in front of them.

It was a kami. Just as in the play, the Starlight Express was a

kami.

Oh Rei, you've always been a smart one.
Also Wikipedia helpfully points out that Starlight Express had two tours in Japan, in 1987 and 1990, so if we're anywhere close to homeline or Stupidworld (the Erfworld term for our universe), Rei would have had plenty of chance to see the play.  Of course, now I need to figure out how to see this play.  So far from Broadway, it's not easy to see good theatre on the west coast.
