[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.

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.]

[He's quiet and struggles to swallow. It's about a minute before he shakes his head and puts on a smile.]

We lost two mem- friends.

Oh. I'm sorry.

[She's mirroring his solemn expression, because, well, she's a few months off losing someone important, too.]

Yeah, was kinda hard.

[He takes a deep breath and straightens.]

So yeah, Doom's a horrible guy and no one was really surprised.

[Nita actually looks off to one side with an "awk-ward" expression on her face, since Latveria's an ally of Atlantis...even if she can't stand Doom herself.]

I, uh, officially have no opinion on that, okay? But I know how you feel.

You kinda get an opinion when a guy tries to to kill you and only fails cause Magneto charges in and then when he actually kills someone that's like your little sister.

[He shrugs, not entirely old news but something he deals with.]

But yeah, I'm not gonna go on some tirade about how everyone should hate him and have the same opinion. That's just the start of 'bad things to happen' on this job.

It's just, um, Latveria is an ally of Atlantis, and I'm a member of the royal family, so I can't go around badmouthing Dr. Doom or it might make things rough for Namor.

[It's very, very clear she doesn't like Doom at all, though.]

Yeah, I totally get that.

So, wow it's pretty cool that we're from the same place.

[Let's get away from Doom.]

I don't know. Maybe there are only so many universes connected to this one. I wish we had Doc Richards or someone to explain it.

[She's treating this as more of a "ugh traffic is backed up again why" problem than "OH GOD WE ARE IN ANOTHER UNIVERSE" because, well, comics.]

Maybe help from Doctor Strange would help as well, you know if it's more to do with the mystical parts or something.

[He hasn't really dealt with the whole different universes much. Time travel? Yeah. But he still isn't freaking out, he's just glad someone else is pretty much from the same place and will understand some things.]
