[he's lost track of time since his arrival. bar the few, brief conversations he's had on the network during his breaks from standing watch over charles' pod, he hasn't spoken to many people yet. he hasn't seen a need to. not while he's still trying to work out what to do next. he knows that charles would be disappointed in him if he knew how little he'd done so far. that he'd spent all this time mourning the loss of someone that hadn't actually belonged to him for years. or was that just months now? he doesn't know anymore.

but regardless, he's forced himself to leave again. this time, for good. until he knows just how to get charles out of the pod, he knows he can't go back. not to mention that already, there's already another problem he needs to deal with.

more than one, really.]

If there are any others here who know a man named Erik Lehnsherr (or Magneto) in their home worlds, now is the time to mention it.

[yes, it's text only right now. no, that isn't changing for any of you yet. sorry?

okay, hold on. you're getting that other question too. the sooner he gets the answers he needs, the better.]

Are there any people here familiar with the technology used to contain those trapped aboard the ship?

I need a way to open one of the pods without harming the person inside.

[and then on to those...other issues.]

[locked to xaviers]

I apologise for my absence since my arrival. There was something that needed to be take care of first.

Charles, if your offer of somewhere to stay still stands, I think I'd welcome it right now.

[and then reluctantly tagged on-]

[locked to shepard]

Thank you.

That would largely depend on your definition of 'alien'.

Erik Lehnsherr. And just what do you specialise in, Dr. Banner?

[tiptoeing]

Not from Earth, I suppose. [he purposefully doesn't say anything like "not human"]

I specialize in nuclear physics and biochemistry...specifically gamma radiation and anti-electron collisions, if any of that means anything to you. I also have some experience as a physician.

[lehnsherr]

Then technically, yes. Though we were never fully informed as to who was truly responsible for our abduction.

Your skills as a physician will likely be of more use here, as I'm sure you're already aware.

[tiptoeing]

I wouldn't be surprised if those responsible for both situations were allies, if not the same people.

And yes, I've already volunteered my services at the hospital. I've also offered to fix electronics and other things for trading purposes. [and he just likes being helpful]

It's unlikely. There were certain religious connotations involved there that aren't present here.

[the second message comes after a short delay.]

When you have some time free, I may have a personal matter to discuss with you.

[tiptoeing]

...What kind of religious connotations? [He sort of has some experience with alien gods.]

I'm free whenever you want to talk about anything.

[lehnsherr]

A supposed battle between heaven and hell. "Satan" had attempted to take control of the city shortly before I left.

Later. I need to gather a few supplies first.
