so uh question

what's on the north end of the station? anybody know? I mean the rest of the place is cool and all but going wherever I want is kind of my whole thing these days and I can't get there which is

weird

or jump between universes anymore

I mean HEY it's not like I want to leave or anything! if whoever's in charge is watching this network which I'm 100% sure they are haha please don't kick me out. just saying, the whole multiverse thing was kind of my ~thing~ and now it's not and it's weird/spooky that they can even take that away to begin with but

yeah anyway

north end of the station is a big ol question mark

also does anybody have some spare yttrium lying around? anyone from the science/phd crowd? maybe some liquid nitrogen? no reason why

[ The Spot. Derision curls in Carver’s chest, but he stows it. This could be useful. He’ll need allies to see this thing through to the end. And this man—Spot—might just be one.

They’ll see. He’ll play it out a little longer. ]

Maybe.

You can call me Carver.

[ No aliases, no codes. Just his surname. ]

[supercollided]

Like... in a cool last name way or a serial killer alias way?

[ Okay yeah all the gravitas drops out of his voice when he says that, it's. He's curious, okay!!

(Like he's one to talk.) ]

Just saying, man, could go either way. Level with me here.

[fortitudosalutis]

[ His tone is noticeably cooler this time. ]

As in my surname.

[supercollided]

Just saying! Could go either way in this place!

[ He's awkward as fuck but he can still pick up on a bit of chill, fortunately. Making a note of that, oop. ]

Cool name though. Mine was pretty great too back before... y'know. [ Like Johnathon Ohnn and his present self are two different people. ] Just doesn't feel right anymore, I guess.

Kinda wish I could still use the doctorate though? Dr. Spot just sounds... yeesh.

[fortitudosalutis]

Why not? Nobody's making us do code names.

[supercollided]

What, Doctor Spot? Sounds like... carpet cleaner or something.

[ God knows he doesn't need to sound any more silly than he already does. ]

Anyway, you gotta stick with the supervillain brand, man. [ oh wow that sounds bad huh. ] I mean! Not that I'm doing that here, just. Yeah. Consistency. In case the ol' nemesis shows up.

[ BEAT. ]

...Kinda just keep making it sound worse, huh.

[fortitudosalutis]

Not really helping your case, no.

[ This is, possibly, the weirdest conversation he's had in years. ]

[supercollided]

[ Wow literally just kill him at this point. ]

It's just one guy! I'm - totally on my best behavior here, I swear.

[ Well, mostly. So far. ]

Just your... friendly... neighborhood Spot. [ Yeah no he's stealing that Spider-Man tagline, screw that guy. ] Just - gimme a ring when the mission happens, if you want. Newbies gotta stick together, right?

[fortitudosalutis]

Mhmm-hmm.

[ Sure you are, Mr. Supervillain. God, why is this is his life now? ]

I'll keep you in mind.
