[Video] First Experiment, Week 91/92

[Oh, look. Look who showed up on the ship. And she's just a little perturbed. And curious.]

Oh! I'm back here? And so how long has it been this time? I'm pretty sure I've missed a few things. [she huffs] I had a presentation to make.

Comments

[pepperspray]

From my understanding of the pods, you may already have made that presentation, but you're only remembering from a certain point in your memories... or it's possible that you're actually exactly from the last time you were in our reality.

[Pepper sighs, as if the untidy state of the multiverse is some failing of a housekeeping service she'd like to send a sharp note to for overburdening poor Salvation.]

It's good to see you back awake, though -- Team Science has been stretched thin, and naturally the stakes have turned out to be a lot higher than we last thought. It's been about a year, more for those who spend a lot of time on Salvation.

[anomaliiiiies]

[SO UNTIDY. Jane agrees while sighing and fussing with her hair.]

Well, I remember Thor going home to Asgard, then I was shipped to Norway and saw what happened in New York. Then two years later I'm in London with Darcy at my mom's house, and well, I went to Asgard then back to London. And all that's mixed in from what I remember of here.

[pepperspray]

I... think you're ahead of me, then.

[Pepper looks oddly discomfited by the notion that her reality's carried on without her while she's been having adventures with mammoths here. Even if that's not actually the case.]

We'll have to compare notes some time, but that's not as important now as it should be. We've learned what Salvation was built to do, and what the nature of Verdana is. It's... not good. And it's likely to get a lot more not-good pretty shortly. You woke up again at a very good time.

[anomaliiiiies]

Oh dear. Um. Did not mean to spoil you. I'll tel everyone once I get settled in. If you want.

[Jane tilted her head and blinked]

Now that I have to hear. And see. Well, once I get off the ship.

[pepperspray]

I'm not sure that 'no spoilers' really applies to life rather than fiction.

[Pepper's tone is dryly amused.]

Not... that I don't think I've been trapped in some tween's comic book at times over the past few years. I converted the second apartment into hostel space, which you're welcome to, but I expect you're probably going to be spending more time out at the ship.

[anomaliiiiies]

Well, there is the possibility of changing timelines, and having to deal with future problems when you haven't done it yet. That's not a good thing.

[And Jane's just getting warmed up! She giggles a bit at the comic book line.]

I should point out not just tweens read comic books, but I see your point.

a small shrug and sigh. So inconvenient to eat and sleep when there is SCIENCE to be done.]

Well, Thor might have an objection or two if he thinks I'm not getting enough food or sleep.

[pepperspray]

I'm aware of Phil Coulson's collection of Captain America comics, yes.

[Pepper's amusement is dry, yet absently fond.]

I'll leave you and Thor to get reaquainted, then. Come by once you're settled. Or send me a message, if the ship's just too interesting.

[anomaliiiiies]

Oh dear. My father had a bunch of them, too. He was a bit of a fan.

[oh blush]

I'll do that, Pepper.
