[Perry was not enjoying today. Waking up in a weird new body and in a weird not!Earth with no known way to get back just annoys him a lot

So what better way to deal with this by venting on this weird device they gave him?]

You know what I miss? Asking questions.

I would have agreed to this thing with maybe one or two conditions if they had asked me in the first place, but nope, they decided it would be a fun idea to just kidnap me away from my home for their own purposes.

I mean yes, I will thwart whatever bad guys they want me to, but that doesn't mean that they don't need to bother asking if I would want too. This whole situation is just rude and getting a place to stay and another job will not make this any better if you ask me.

[He... might not be entirely aware that this is being publicly broadcasted right now.]

Sorry buddy, the government didn't kidnap you.

[ Is she reading that ID right? Platypus? ]

Either way, I am not enjoying this situation. I have a life outside of beating up bad guys, you know.

I figure. Sorry that this is the predicament.
By any chance did they hand you a pamphlet?

[Well this is admittedly kind of embarrassing to admit, but...]

They did, actually.

I would have read it by now but this was kind of a knee-jerk reaction and I didn't exactly expect what I wrote to become public.

I should probably go read that.

It's a normal reaction, honestly. A lot of people are freaked out when they first arrive.
I would recommend reading it, though; it's got info you'll want to know.

I guess it wouldn't hurt at this point.

[There is a noticable pause between texts as he reads it over.]

Well I guess I should blame that Porter instead of the government at least. A shame that we can't go and see what it wants from us though.

[Perry I don't think that's what you should have gotten out of that brochure.]

Unfortunately not.
It doesn't help that a couple of imPorts broke into the Porter lab a while back either.

Of course.

There goes my chance to try to convince anyone to at least let me check it out, huh?

They don't let anyone besides their team near it.
It doesn't matter what kind of knowledge you might possess. It's too risky, I take it.

Honestly I've probably been through riskier situations than this.

[But oh well, he's not a top agent here so sitting here and whining won't solve anything.]

I hope they don't try to keep it a secret from us if they do find out what this Porter wants from us, if they ever find out.

What field are you in back home then?
If they ever find out. Unlike Lachesis (who didn't talk all that much anyway), this Porter is pretty quiet.

Of course we're dealing with that type of omniscient being

[Perry don't talk like you actually have regular experience with this.

He's about to continue but he suddenly realizes that this thing has his biological name on it.]

[He's just... going to quietly change it and hope she doesn't notice.]

I'm an agent who specializes in preventing villains from committing evil acts. Top in my field.

[ ... what is going on here. ]

A secret agent?

You could call it that.

[Read: Yeah that's exactly what he is.]

So I guess I'm sticking to calling you Agent P.

[ Teasing? A little. Who is this guy? ]

Yes, for the time being I would prefer that you call me that.

Fair enough!
Did you deal with domestic or foreign threats?

[There is a noticeable pause between texts as he debates whether he should give any information.

In the end though he decide that it's not like Major Monogram will just pop up and tell him he's fired just for sharing something as inconsequential as this.]

Mostly domestic, although I deal with foreign threat if I'm called for it.

Makes sense.
Did they set you up with something similar here?

If you mean my civilian job, then in a way I guess it is.

I wouldn't say it's a glamorous job though.

I don't imagine it is.

[ Being a hero is not always a fun job. It gets messy and painful. ]

But I should stop talking about myself so much. So what's your story? Is there anything you enjoy doing around here?

Me? I'm working a lot.
Got back about a week ago from a vacation in Hawaii. Nice to see it's remain unchanged in a different universe.

Well it's nice to know that not every place in this world is different.

That does sound nice though. Are they paid vacations?
