I don't really make posts on this thing--I never really know what to say, for one. And it kind of feels a little bit weird being a forty-something dad and using this thing basically to blog. But, anyway, considering I haven't posted in months and I don't really know half of you...well, might as well do this.
I'm Curt Connors, and I'm from the same world as...God, a ton of people. Tony Stark, Peter Parker, the couple of X-Men we've got here, Spider-Man... [ he cuts himself off with a small laugh. ] And probably a ton of other people from that world who I just don't know yet. Anyway, I work with reptiles pretty much on a daily basis, so if you've got questions about snakes or lizards, I'm your guy.
...is that all? Uh, I don't really know what people say on these sort of things.
[ look at Connors not being a recluse, aren't you proud of him? there's a pause though, before he barrels into another question, his tone of voice more apprehensive now. ]
Ah, I do have a question, though. How would formal education work here? I had a doctorate back home, and I'd kind of like to have it again. Being an assistant research biologist is nice, but you're still an assistant. I know that with lawyers you can simply retake the bar, and with doctors I'm sure you can prove your skills in a medical setting, but I'm not exactly sure how the rest of us would prove our knowledge.
It's not like I can get my diploma or published research from across dimensions, after all.

It's no doctorate, but I'm sure you're aware, contract work pays more.

I'm sure that someone here has a job in construction, maybe they can give us a good location of a lot?

We'll have someone figure it out for us. [ Gosh, they're scientists! ] I'm just glad you're on board!
no subject
Oh, likewise! I have a feeling this'll turn out to be a great endeavor.

[ IT'S A JOKE but yeah, he's still the bug man. ]
What kind of research have they got you doing here, anyway?
no subject
[ ANOTHER JOKE in the sort of dorky science dad joke kind of vein. ]
They've been putting me on different projects--one of the pains of being an assistant research biologist. At the moment, though, I'm working on wetlands research, thank God.

See, that's what I'm talking about. We can do so much better than settling for being shifted around different projects. It'd be a waste of our talents not to pursuit our own fields.
