Just a head's up: two, four, and six are animated, and two in particular is rather bright/flashy.

Once, at the very start, Fiddleford had been excited to help Stanford out with his project. After all, how can one resist the prospect of potentially changing the world? He'd been curious to see what would be beyond the portal as well, back then. Not anymore. He hasn't felt either of those things for quite a while now after everything they've been through and the countless calculations he's made that only point toward failure. The only reason he even comes to the test is for the sake of his stubborn fool of a friend who he doesn't want to leave alone facing who knows what the portal might bring.

And it's the biggest mistake he could have made. Fiddleford is the furthest thing from excited and curious as the rope tightens around his wrist and he's unceremoniously yanked up into the air. It happens so fast, there's no time to do anything or to even think about doing anything to help himself. All he can do is yell in terror as gravity itself seems to lose its grip on him and the pull of the portal sucks him in, the sound of the swirling energy behind him drowning out all other noise.

As panic swiftly sets in, the urge to shut his eyes is there—very strongly so—but before he can actually do so he's already pulled into the portal and what he sees on the other side leaves him unable to look away. Utterly horrific is the only way to describe the landscape- no, hellscape of swirling colors and shadowy monstrous-looking figures that lie beyond the portal. It's like space being made into a living nightmare, stuffed with monsters, and at the very center of it all: a triangular figure that looks as if the portal itself was righted and turned into nightmarish creature.

Truly, the only proper reaction to seeing such a sight would be to scream and that's exactly what Fiddleford does.
