Baker Bloch: Go To The Moon!

Baker Bloch asked that Edwardston Resident join him in a special event: the launching of a rocket from the Norris Building that would take him all the way to *The Moon*. And Edwardston gets to hang with his new friend, once more! Notice from the below picture that, from Edwardston’s viewpoint of the meeting this time, his actual appearance was not altered. Baker Bloch remained grayed out, true, but this was a one step improvement from their first interaction. Unfortunately, Baker Bloch still only saw Edwardston as a white mist.

Baker enters the Norris Building, telling Edwardston to stay put and keep looking up. Less than a minute later Baker was in the air (!)

About 10 minutes later, Edwardston, still looking skyward as Baker requested, saw his friend, arms and legs flailing, return to virtual Earth in a crash, sans rocket. “What happened, what happened??” Edwardston implored. Baker just wiped himself off and headed back toward the Norris Building. “I gotta try that again,” he said to Edwardston while walking away. “Just keep looking up. And keep taking your photos!”

It was while he was snapping photographs of this second, witnessed launch that something more surprising happened. Edwardston must have touched the rocket in the wrong way, because, suddenly, *he* was riding in the launched pod alongside Baker Bloch! He looked over at Baker, whose appearance was strangely flickering and even contracting in certain places like the face as the elevation increased. He managed to take some pictures.

At one point, Baker even lost his glasses and armbands. Only a hat topped, faceted gray mass remained. Thankfully, it was only a brief effect.

Shortly they crash landed on The Moon itself, unharmed. They’d made it!

After looking around at some of the craters and staring at the star speckled sky, they found that the ship was irreparably damaged and would not make a return trip. They’d have to teleport home instead. What fun nevertheless!!
