[So Billy has been that bored that he's either listened and watched most of the conversations going on, and had moments of horrible home sickness. Boredom doesn't begin to cover how he's feeling. Now that the action has died down, it's just a constant moment of sitting on the edge of your seat, waiting. Waiting sucked.]

So, someone mentioned comic books. Kinda curious about who else here really read them back where they come from and what kind? What were they like? Heroes, blah, blah, blah.

I'm that bored and yeah, curious.

I'm into finding old issues, we have titles that are based on like hero teams from my world as well. Collect Avengers titles. They're uh...a team back home.

[Yeah, sorry, Nita can't do better than that for encryption.]

Yeah, and the Superhuman Registration Act. And the destruction of Atlantis.

[Like Atlantis doesn't get destroyed at least once a year. Jeez, Nita.]

[He'd be keysmashing right now if it weren't video.]

Oh my god...we've gotta be from the same universe then.

[He has Tommy and Teddy, but that's...this is different.]

This is amazing!

[The enthusiasm is infectious and Nita grins, too.]

So that makes you, me, and Striker. And Nomad, kind of. Do you know of anyone else?

[TEENAGE 616]

Yeah there's Teddy and Tommy they're from home as well.

[The best 616 of all! They should all find out they can do stuff and like...hang. Well those that get one. :| Tommy...Brandon...]

Oh, I'm Billy by the way!

[Nita will make everyone behave through sheer big sister powers. And threatening to drown them.

...Well, she has to introduce herself sometime.]

Namorita Prentiss.

[DON'T HATE HER FOR STARTING THE CIVIL WAR BILLY]

[That is something he would actually really like to see her do with Tommy.

There's a moment where the name doesn't really register and then...oh. Oh! Billy swallows and nods. HE DOESN'T BLAME YOU OKAY? THINGS HAPPEN! People were dicks and others weren't. But he smiles and it's genuine.]

Nice to meet you.

[That went better than she'd been expecting. Of course, she's been sitting there stewing over everything she'd missed, with no one to talk to about it, so it's just possible she's being unreasonable over how much responsibility she bears.]

...Likewise.

I, uh. I'm from before...all that stuff.

[Obviously, because she's still alive and not blue.]

[Hey, if he wasn't the more forgiving type, then he'd never have forgiven a lot of people. Wasn't like she knew what would happen. Yeah there had to be blame, but things got so out of hand so quickly. So Billy's just not even going to go there.]

After it. Way after it.

Not going to hold it against you or anything.

I just--

[She doesn't even know what to say.]

Yeah, anyway. I'd only been in the future--your present, I guess--for two weeks when I ended up here. So I have no idea what's going on back home, except apparently Namor joined the X-Men?

[IT'S WEIRD OKAY]

Ew, no kidding with the time travel stuff.

[Billy rakes through his memory and hums as he does so. He'd been zoned out for the best part of three to four months.]

Yeah, he's been with them for a while now. Well...a few months or something? Kinda sketchy on things that happened. X-Men have somewhere called Utopia as well, so that's kind of their little haven?

Magneto's a good guy again.

Plus Emma Frost and Doctor Nemesis! Everything got weird.

[Because they weren't weird before, clearly.]

Oh yeah, can't forget those. Hmm...who else.

Oh well, Scarlet Witch is kind of, sort of back? She's not active, but she's around.

She was gone?

[Nita only really caught up on events related to herself and a handful of people she's close to. Thus the fact that Wanda disappeared after M-Day didn't make it into her consciousness.]

What, was she dead or something?

Hm? No, she lost her memory and was found by Doom and obviously he didn't tell her who she was so he took her in. Totally untraceable.

[Oops, accidentally left something open there...In a...round about way.]

Uh. Then how do you know about it? Dr. Doom isn't the kind of guy who makes his plans public.

[Yes, Nita even calls horrible supervillain assholes politely by their titles. The fact that Namor is the closest thing Doom has to a friend might have something to do with it.]

[Busted. Billy can't think of a way out of it so he slumps slightly and offers a slight grin.]

Would you believe that it's all a lucky guess?

[No. Billy sighs.]

I was...there. Not when he found her, like literally before the wedding and kinda...went to the castle without an invite during the night and...yeah. Not my smartest move.

Wedding? What were you doing in Latveria? That's just not a good place to be, period.

[She is so confused.]

I uh...No it's not. It's a really complicated story, but we found a Doombot that was disguised as her, and then I sort of...sneakily cast a spell to get me there to check out the land and well...got caught.

[His mouth draws into a tight line.]

[Ohhhhhhh he's a hero THAT EXPLAINS EVERYTHING. Nita visibly chills.]

Yeah, Dr. Doom is kinda big on safeguards. Guess it all worked out, though?

Hi I'm Billy and I totally suck at not mentioning things that can give other things away.

[But they were both the same, right? Powers and stuff so...it wasn't so bad? He cringes.]

In a...manner of speaking yeah. We got her back and she remembered...after time travel then there was a fight. [MOVING ON!!!]

It's easier not having a secret identity.

[Says the woman who can count on the Sub-Mariner and an army of fish-warriors backing her up if she gets in too much trouble.]

Oh yeah? Who showed up to the party?

[Shop talk.]

[He laughs a little.]

It probably is but...I've got a lot of people I don't want in harms way.

[Then he snorts.]

X-Men and Avengers. Doom went all righteous and drunk on power cause of the life force.

My closest living relative is Namor.

[Nita gives almost a Kanye shrug. She's his liability rather than the other way around.]

...Oh jeez, that sounds like a mess.

[His eyes go wide and he leans in.]

Wow okay, didn't know that!

[That was certainly handy though.

Billy's smile is unease.]

That's one way to put it.

Did it all work out okay?

[Because she's recently had it driven home that it doesn't always work out okay.]
