[Darcy sits in front of her console and squints. Well. It's not Facebook but it's something. She leans back and relaxes her posture.]

Okay, so the idea of going to another world isn’t exactly new for me, but having it actually happen? Yeah, that’s pretty surprising. Man, Jane would flip if she knew about this! Also, the giant turtle thing? Crazy. But also pretty damn cool.

So anyway! Seeing as I’m stuck here for now, I should probably introduce myself. I’m Darcy: a severely underpaid intern who just earned her degree. Seriously, I didn’t even have time to celebrate before I turned up here. Looking forward to meeting all my turtle-neighbors, though. I don’t suppose this is some secret part of Asgard, is it? That’s the only other world I’m that familiar with.

Oh, and one more thing. I should probably ask this just in case: is there a Jane Foster or Erik Selvig here? Erik might be a little on the, erm, nutty side at the moment? Happens when you get an alien poking around in your head, I guess.

Thanks! See ya!

[ Oh, it's happening again. ]

I have been told that in an alternate universe, I am fictionalized in a twentieth-century television series.

So wait.

[She's got her hand out, waving at the camera.]

Wait, wait, wait. Please tell me that your name is Spock.

Yes. I am Commander Spock of the USS Enterprise.

Oh my god.

This is...wow, okay. Wow. So apparently gods are real, and now Star Trek. Man, I had a few friends in high school who would be flipping their shit right now.

'Star Trek'. [ That still sounds oddly quaint. ] Named so because of the five-year mission?

You know...I'm honestly not sure. I only caught a few episodes here and there. I guess that would make sense though, right?

It would. It also appears you are from a similar world to that of Mr. Miles Morales, a young man who has provided me with further information. If you are able, I request the same of you.

What kind of information?

Anything. I find the notion of being a work of fiction intriguing.

Well, like I said, I'm not really a hardcore fan. Just a casual viewer.

But there is a serious fanbase out there. Trekkies. Or maybe Treckers? I'm not really sure what they prefer to be called.

That is both disturbing and flattering.

I think that's the case with any fanbase, really.

[ It's kind of her to get so excited over meeting him, even if she doesn't know that much about his fictional life; he prefers it that way, honestly. How to repay her? Ah, and he was also ungracious earlier, there's a need to pull the situation back to well-mannered grounds. ]

I would return the favor but it seems as though you are already a work of art.

[ #logical swag ]

[She stops, tilts her head, and once again looks confused. Was he hitting on her now? What even.]

Well. That's easily the best compliment I've gotten in a while.

[She settles on looking just a little smug.]

Unless we're talking about abstract.

[ He nods, satisfied that she's pleased. ]

Abstract would be an interesting concept to visualize, albeit somewhat uncomfortable in reality.

Yeah, an arm where a leg should be might be a little awkward.

Or a nose.

[Darcy actually reaches up and covers her nose at that.]

Oh god. That would be awful.

Your level of dexterity would be increased.

Not to mention you'd constantly be smelling the ground.

[She removes her hand, but her nose is wrinkled up at the thought.]

You would gain excellent tracking skills.

[ There's always a silver lining to being a weirdo!! ]

Right. I'll just keep that at the top of my resume should I ever be turned into a monstrous piece of living abstract art.

I would be obliged to help change you back, Miss Darcy.

My hero!

You know, in super hypothetical-land.

Somehow, I doubt you will be in need of one any time soon.

[ She reminds him of Jim, a little. Buoyant, social, independent. ]
