Squidhead steps in for a closer look and seems to pluck invisible somethings off of Ako's clothes. "No, no," he says after inspecting a few of those invisible somethings closer. "Can you lift your arms for me? That may knock something loose. Thanks."
"Ah, there it is," he says after picking another invisible something off the floor. "See, it is all frayed, all of them are," he says as he shows something to the fairy. "And this one, it has a different time stamp than what is usual for Milliways."
"Oh, gosh, no wonder I couldn't recognize any of it. That is way later than the requests we usually get," remarks the fairy.
"Yes, and the different time messes with the encoding. Even though most places move linearly in time, the special time and location situation at Milliways require some special hacks to make sure things arrive at the right place and right time. I can't even tell what time these other ones come from."
"… doesn't the time thing mean their timeywhotsitwhowibbly thing is broken?" asks the fairy.
"Uhhh... yeah," answers the squidhead, unsure of what the fairy just said.
