I found something that shouldn't be here. There's no way in hell they should be here, but I found them.

Is anyone else finding things like that? Something personal that you didn't have a week ago? Because one of my Pokemon came out of her ball wearing- and I don't understand.

Hey, where are you two at? I know where Imogen is, but it's been radio silence from you two. We should meet up, I can come to you guys pretty quick once you tell me where to meet you.

The same goes for you, Hope, you can come talk to me about this anytime.

That's a good possibility, especially since from what I've heard the teleporting around before these strange...hm, creatures showed up occurred every six months or thereabouts.
It's probable that the continuous effects of that acted much like ocean waves against a rock, slowly wearing it away until it crumbles.
A theory I'd strongly love to test, but I'm afraid I wouldn't know where to begin with it.
The only engineering I can do involves biology, unfortunately.

[It takes him about three minutes to reply because buh. He has a past and it sucks. Wording things is tough when it's at the forefront of his mind.]

Thank you, Steve.

Though anything we talk about may be a long discussion.

Not that I am saying no. It would just be very, very long and difficult.

Maybe the breakdown lets more in? I know I could swear I had my abilities back just a few days ago, but it's a bit of a blur. Maybe it's easier to get home at that time?

I have two engineer/science friends, as well as a man who traveled between worlds back home, maybe they could tinker with the idea.

I understand, that's not a problem. The stories that matter most often take forever to tell.

And best done in person.

That does tend to be best, yes.

Perhaps one day, then.

[Yeah there is no way anyone is gonna get him to use text, it's too hard.]

But if things slipped in, that's gotta mean things can slip out, right? I wonder what would happen if you found a way out and ended up somewhere you weren't meant to be..

That sounds unpleasant. There are a few worlds I've heard about that I'm not interested in visiting. But I haven't heard of something like that happening, so I wouldn't worry.

[this kid looks young, so Steve wants to reassure him]

[lieutenantantichrist]

[That's almost reassuring.]

Sounds like we've got some kind of reverse pick-pocket with a sick sense of humor.

Found my badge.

I'm sure we'll cross paths again one day.

[eagletalons]

Or we can schedule something for the future.

[starspangledavenger]

Sounds like a good plan.

[starspangledavenger]

Yeah, I definitely don't appreciate any humor they might have had behind it.

That's a hypothesis we could test out the next time it happens.
A lot of people can get in from what I remember, even doubles.
I think I saw a lot of versions of my children, but it's hard to recall much else.

Well, well, I'd certainly be interested to hear from them if they find the experiment worthwhile!
My name is Roxanne Lalonde, by the way. Sorry I didn't introduce myself earlier.

Would you like a set date now? I find something scheduled is refreshing in a world that is highly unpredictable.

A chain doesn't sound like something with any good memories attached.

Huh. I've been wanting this thing back ever since it vanished.

[believeit]

[He hears it- but by now he's too busy thinking about what would happen if that came true.]

I wonder if I went back to some place in the past, I could go meet the normal me that was already there. But if I did, I would remember it, right? That's how time thingies work. I think.

[starspangledavenger]

Unless time tries to correct itself once you leave. I've never traveled in time, but from a few books I've read, it can mess things up pretty badly.

But I don't think that'd happen, it hasn't yet, probably won't. [okay, he doesn't really believe that, but he's talking to a kid]

[starspangledavenger]

Chain as in like a necklace, nothing horrible.

Then it's a good thing to have again, yeah? Someone suggested the idea that all the craziness that's been going on lately is the price and the items are the prize.

[starspangledavenger]

I'll make sure to write down notes, in case this memory blur is part of it all. I remember meeting a boy who knew me, but not me, a different one, but I can't remember past that.

That sounds fascinating at the least, to meet more versions of your kids.

I'll talk to them and if they peruse it, I'll keep you up to date on any progress. I know one of them will probably interested in exploring the idea at least.

It's nice to meet you Miss Lalonde, I'm Steve Rogers. It's perfectly fine, I've grown weak in my manners, I'm not used to meeting people over a device and not face to face.

[starspangledavenger]

Sure, it'd be nice to have something to look forward to. When might work best for you? I'm pretty flexible.

[text]

[lieutenantantichrist]

That's not so bad then. Unless it's from an ex-girlfriend or something.

Yeah. You'd think so.

Now it's in my hand, it just makes me remember it doesn't mean anything without the authority to go with it.

Hell of a prize.
