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.

[Steve is wary of using video, but he doesn't want to be rude, so he replies in kind. His face is rather neutral]

Yeah, seems to be happening to quite a few people. Best guesses so far are that it's the reward for all the crazy shit that's been happening lately or that the fabric between worlds weakened and things slipped through.

[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]

[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.

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]

[It's enough for Naruto to nod and agree, though. He doesn't have a clue about that sort of thing, after all. Even now, he doesn't really understand how they ended up here, he just accepts it.]

Where did you come from then, before here? Oh, oh! Hey Mister- what thing from home did you find?

One of the many versions of Earth. [he hesitates] A chain, like a necklace, it was a friend's. How about yourself?

[believeit]

It was a book. It was the first one my Sensei wrote, and I was named after it so it was kinda important to me, like your necklace.

Then I'm glad you have it again. Sounds like it's a good thing to keep close by.

[believeit]

Yeah, I'm glad it was this one and not one of hid porn books!

[Oh yeah-]

I'm Naruto.

[blinks at the mention of porn books and wonders if they are like the ones passed around during the war... decides not to ask]

Nice to meet you Naruto, I'm Steve.

Nice to meet ya Steve, how's it going? [More friends, yay.]

[Steve decides not to let the kid know he's having a rough time because of the item he found]

It's going okay. How about yourself?
