According to Them, Nonlinear Time-Travelers ought not be Linear-Time Keepers

&According to them, "You can't get the capital-tee Truth out of her! She lives in a fantasyland!"

According to her ...

What looks like fantasy to some is reality to others and vice versa,

and it's never a surprise to find out that the mediocre lack imagination. 

Of course the fantastic is where she exists.

&Of course, the unimaginative cannot Travel there with her.

"I have been informed to neither confirm nor deny you," Jei states flatly. "So," Salai smirks, "she lives." And rules rides a whisper. "Fascinating," Salai admits as she makes her way through the back-exit of the Post where she can look upon the various fields of various edibles at the end of which stand two identical houses. Jei looks nervous. Salai smirks again, "Is Dei good at the job?" Dei perks up from her glacial slouch. "She's okay," Jei admits, not-looking in Dei's direction. Salai looks directly at Dei, "The Chosen One, can't stomach it?" And can't believe it rides on the air of Salai's words. "The oddball born of normies," Salai continues. Jei looks like he's trying to control himself. Dei has a blank-looking expression on her face. "You two are quite a pair," Salai chuckles, closing the door through which she was looking out at the space beyond the Post, sighs, "If you do not tell me when we are, Jei, you know that I will have no other option than to figure it out myself, and neither, sorry, none of us want that, isn't that right?" Salai reminds as she turns her attention to Dei; "She may be special, sure, but she's soft, of mind." Jei hangs his head in knowingness.

"Salai," Jei starts, "Dei is not your enemy." Salai releases Dei from her sight and whips her head around to face Jei. "The two of you are complicit in the actions that are being taken in order to keep me captive here," Salai informs. "You're not being held captive," Jei explains. "So, I can just walk out this door and exit the 'Big Red Barn'?" Salai mocks. "Yea, sure," Jei admits; "You're free to leave. We were simply meant to accompany you if accompaniment is what you desire. At least, that's how Ladybug put it." Salai eyes Dei; Dei's cluelessness is confirmed. 

"I don't believe your lies, Jei, but since I'm here, and, generally speaking, this all seems relatively harmless, I'll stay, for the time being, so that I can watch her," Salai points, intimidatingly, at Dei,"do the job." Jei sighs an inaudible sigh. "Relieved?" Salai goads. "Of course. Why would I want harm to befall you? Either of you," Jei states, eyeing Dei, ineffectively hiding his fear.
