The air shimmered, displacing the familiar horrors of the apocalypse with a sudden, jarring silence. Rick, Daryl, Negan, and dozens of others from across the timeline materialized in a vast, opulent lounge. Soft lighting glinted off a colossal flatscreen dominating the center, while plush sofas and tables laden with snacks and drinks offered an surreal comfort. The group stood frozen, weapons half-raised, eyes darting between the impossible luxury and each other. Suddenly, a cheerful, disembodied voice echoed from an unseen intercom, shattering the tension: “You’re all going to be reacting to you! :3” The screen flickered to life, casting a pale glow on their bewildered faces as the feed began to play.
