Read the first post on page one of this thread for general setting then ask questions in the open thread above.  It will keep things from getting cluttered here.

// comment was on this thread.

//also, is there a bar in the setting?

// Funny, I was waiting for you... Oh, well.

Umbra slowly sits up, rubbing his forehead. "Ugh... What just..."
He stops talking once he sees Empathy, who shyly waves hello.
"...Uh. Hi."
There's a bit of silence between them.
"...Aren't you-"
"Yes. It's complicated."
"...Okay. Can anyone besides the other me from a dream explain what's going on?"

Scyn squints at Ezekiel and also clears his throat. "YES. WELL, I SUPPOSE NOW THAT WHATEVER IS HAPPENING IS HAPPENING, WE SHOULD LET THEM DO WHATEVER IT IS THEY'RE DOING," he says slightly louder than usual, picking RIOE up with ease and slinging her over his shoulder.
"HEY! What're you do-"
"RIOE. I'LL EXPLAIN LATER. EXCEPT I WON'T. JUST COME WITH ME."
"Not like I have a choice..." Scyn and RIOE leave the infirmiry, with the Guard Guy on his tail.

Empathy nods. Seems he's compliant.

(well Ez isn't exactly a quantum physicist - his area of expertise is mechanics and electronics. It's unlikely he knows exactly what's going on.)

// meanwhile, Empathy and the others have a first-hand account of what happened and their subsequent erasure from reality.
