[Video, open] This is not the speedster you think you know

[cantcatchme]

[Pietro's looking a bit more clean-cut than he has been lately (he's been letting his hair grow out a little these past few months). He also appears confused, bordering on annoyed. The background is clearly a section of Poseidon, from high up. He appears to be on a tall building.]

Quicksilver here. Wherever here is. It's sure as hell not HQ, and I'm definitely not wearing my clothes. [Yes, he is. He made them himself, even.] And this isn't my communicator. What gives? Scarlet Witch? Cap? Anybody copy? [He looks away, grumbling the last part just loudly enough for the mic to pick up.] Fuck, I'd take Clint if he could tell me what the hell's going on.

Hey, a guy's gotta have priorities. Keeps me sane when things start getting weird. Though if you're going to fill me in on where I am and who all these people are who think they know me, be my guest.

[bruiserprincess]

His "deal" is that he lives with us too. You're the only one who's off.

[Video]

[cantcatchme]

Yeah, but... he's saying some complete bullsh- spit. Bullspit. [Thank you, Cap.]

[Video]

[bruiserprincess]

[She gives him an odd look]

What? About you living here?

[Video]

[cantcatchme]

Eh, among other things.

[That wasn't the one that concerned him most, anyway.]

If he's joking, it's seriously not funny.

[thefuzzyguy]

We're on a planet where we got dumped by a spaceship that steals people from their own universes und plunks them in another one.

[This may not be the Pietro he's used to, but they're alike enough that he can't shake old habits, like a general air of exasperation.]

As for who we are... I don't even know where to start. Uh, names? But that doesn't really mean anything if you don't know us.

[He's thinking of the alternate timelines he's experienced. Things didn't always translate.]

[cantcatchme]

Man, I wish I could claim that that's the weirdest thing that's happened to me lately. And names are proooobably a good start. Or codenames. I'm more likely to know those, I think.

[Or at least, they're more likely to pop up on the news in his world.]

[Video]

[bruiserprincess]

It's not a joke. Something seriously weird is happening here though. I don't know what.

[thefuzzyguy]

Uh, Nightcrawler, Toad... I don't know if Molly really has a codename that people know besides her.

[He remembers something about Princess Powerful.]

[Video]

[cantcatchme]

Right. Well, I'll try to let you know once I know what is happening, but I'm pretty lost myself, for the moment.

[cantcatchme]

Yeah. You're the only one that rings a bell, dude. And only since the whole mutants coming out of the closet bit.

[Video]

[bruiserprincess]

New people wake up all the time but they usually don't look just like people we thought were still here.

[Video]

[cantcatchme]

And from what I hear, I'm wearing his clothes, too.

This is just getting freaky all around.

[thefuzzyguy]

Oh, good, that still happened.

[It would be nice to think of another reality where he didn't have to deal with that.]

[cantcatchme]

It was kind of hard to miss, yeah.

[Video]

[bruiserprincess]

Yeah. That about sums it up.

He makes those clothes.

[thefuzzyguy]

Anything involving us is usually going to be, ja. Were there giant robots?

[Video]

[cantcatchme]

Yes, yes, and he has very good taste, thank goodness. I promise I didn't mean to replace him, or whatever happened. I rather like my world.

[cantcatchme]

Well, at least one, anyway. It was all over the news.

[Video]

[bruiserprincess]

I'm sure you didn't. But weird stuff happens here and it gets seriously annoying.

[Video]

[cantcatchme]

Now I'm annoying? Gee, we're off to a good start.

[He's teasing, honest.]

[Video]

[bruiserprincess]

This planet is annoying.
