[Of course he has his mask and the vocal modulator on. Because he doesn't trust anyone here, and likely never will. And he has good reason. Exhibit A: the file on him that he'd found laying under that smarmy pamphlet. And that job voucher. He's not even thinking about that right now.

He brandishes the folder at the camera.]

Who the fuck did this? [Someone who could hack AEGIS's files, for one thing. But that's only half of it. There's...other stuff in here. Personal stuff.]

Look, I know what we were up to in the goddam 80s. And this wasn't fucking part of it. You think I haven't read AEGIS's encrypted files? [He totally has. It's part of his rogue agent street cred.]

You probably think this is some kind of sick joke. Let's see how hard you laugh when I find you.

[The threat is real! ]

And trust me, jackass. I will find you.

I don't know, the porter? I think they do a mind scan or something when we first arrive. Maybe test some samples to see what our powers are.

[mindsnakes]

[HUFF.]

I didn't consent to that. Only villains do mad science without consent.

[drivesadesk]

Hey, the government where I'm from does that all the time!

[Pause.]

...point taken.

[mindsnakes]

So this whole premise here is bullshit.

Got it.

[AS HE ALREADY FIGURED because he is smart.]

Who do I have to stab to go back home ?

private voice; id: batman

[cassassin]

[Similarly run through a modulator:]

It's not the 80s. And it's a different "we".

Everyone on this network was...brought here. Same as you.

[Namaste, fellow paranoid voice modulator. ]

So what is this? Mass delusion caused by the Terr--goddammit. The cola. That's how he did it.

[He is NEVER drinking soda again.]

perma all that ^^^ etc

[cassassin]

[what the actual fuck, overkill]

There's no "he".

This isn't your universe.

[Have a bemused thirteen year old looking unimpressed.]

Did you run off before your guide could explain how you got here and what's going on?

Re: Video

[mindsnakes]

No. [Yes.]

I don't run.

[Running is for non-badasses. ]

Besides, why would I trust them, anyway.

[beyourzoomer]

Never? What if you were being chased?

[She shrugs a little at that, because well. Point.]

Well, no one specifically brought you, it was a machine. It happened to pretty much everybody on the network.

[aberrant_type]

Oh! Driven to a lofty goal at once! I like it! Don't stab anyone here, though. It's not our fault! [PEPPY.]

Re: voice;

[mindsnakes]

[Overkill hates peppy. ]

Don't tell me who I can stab.

Re: voice;

[aberrant_type]

[He's gonna love Hange, then 8)))))))]

Honestly! Do you go around indiscriminately stabbing strangers? That's very irresponsible!

The information on the folders is provided by the Porter.

But let me guess - you ignored whatever was told to you when you arrived.

Re: [ Video ]

[mindsnakes]

I didn't ignore it. [That may be a lie.]

I just don't trust whatever 'they' want me to know to be the truth. [That, however, is definitely the truth.]

Re: [ Video ]

[ghoulking]

And who will you trust to tell you the truth then?

voice.

[functusofficio]

This is very likely not at all what you think it is.

They do not think of it as a sick joke, though it is a difficult situation on all fronts.

I'm Ambassador Amidala, elected to represent Import interests. I hope to aid as possible.

Re: voice.

[mindsnakes]

My situation was difficult enough, thanks.

[Overkill has little experience with people who aren't yelling back at him. This is weird.]

I don't need aid. I just need to know whose ass to kick.

voice.

[functusofficio]

Then perhaps this one will be a welcome change for you.

[ Padme is very good at being nice, so. ]

Well, the answer to that would be nobody's. Unless we fall under attack again, in which case I suppose the answer becomes whoever is attacking us.

[ Have another masked face staring right at the camera. It's eerie, since it just reflects the lens. When he speaks, it's musical and through a severe vocoder. ]

It sounds like you're a little bit confused. Who are you looking for, first of all. They're probably not here.

Video

[mindsnakes]

[ Yeah, that sure is a creepy image. Overkill's pissed he didn't think of the idea himself. In addition to his baseline pissed-off-ness. ]

Do I sound confused? And I'm probably looking for you.

You look like a villain.

Video

[craftpunk]

Me?

I'm a God. We're above those things.

[ Despite the fact that Woden, at every other instance will absolutely claim supervillain. ]
