re: young avengers 8!

We're going to get him back, okay? That's what we do. Just like he said. And even if it weren't Teddy - no one gets left behind. Nobody. Not in any dimension. We're going to get Teddy and Tommy and David back and there's really nothing else to say about that.

The rest is just. Don't.

Nothing I don't already know. Got faith in you guys.

[ But about that rest: ] It's-- I mean, that last thing is probably, like. That one cover with Sylvie, right? It can't be anything else.

[tesselate]

Good.

[hargle bargle] Except where it actually happened.

[nothulk]

Okay, yeah, it happened and it's different like that, but. It's not like I saw that coming, or kissed him back. That matters.

[tesselate]

I didn't say it didn't matter. I didn't want to talk about it, remember?

[nothulk]

I know you don't, but I still-- I just wanted it clear on that one point. Is all.

[tesselate]

It's fine, okay? It's not important.

[recurve]

The rest is just...

Welp.

[tesselate]

Yeah, way to sum it up. What do you think is happening in that one universe? With the cute squishy things and me becoming the universe instead of just wearing it?

[recurve]

I'm gonna go with you made yourself god? I don't know, I'm just really, really tired of it all.

[tesselate]

Man and here I thought that alternate City sounded bad. We've done it, Kate, we've literally found the jackpot of alternate universes never to visit.

Go team!

[recurve]

And only on the what? Seven million and second try? That has to be a new record!

[xpostate]

[ just embarrassed staring. which is what he'll be doing through the entire thread tbh, just with different icons once i actually make them. ]

[tesselate]

[hi....david.....]

Feel better now?

[xpostate]

[ he opens his mouth, preparing to say something.

but just closes it instead. he'll talk eventually. ]

[tesselate]

Not really helping.

[xpostate]

[ he was in the same room as gambit once. you'd be surprised how much charm counts as a skill.

you'd also be surprised how different knowing a thing and executing it are. ]

threadjacking.

[mph]

[ don't mind him, in limbo eating popcorn and waiting to be rescued ]

What did you do?

[xpostate]

So you've seen your brother-in-law, right?

[mph]

He's not exactly my brother-in-law since they aren't actually hitched but sure, what's your point? He's blond and sometimes big and green. Did he live up to his namesake and smash something or someone?

[xpostate]

The term's an expedience. May not be technically true, but enough to count, right?

Anyway, no. Wasn't that. [ loooooooooong pause. ] Might've made a pass at him.

[surgere]

[Just slowly shakes her head.]

[xpostate]

[ just slowly turning about seven different shades of red. ]

[surgere]

[Her mouth opens as if she's going to say something but then slowly closes it. Nothing witty is coming to mind here.

Oh wait!] I guess I can't blame you.

[xpostate]

Well. At least someone won't be.

[ yeah okay, doesn't take a genius to know billy'd be Real Mad. but somehow he's drawing a blank on how exactly he expected to handle that. ]

[ex_soter262]

You are right, Billy Kaplan of Earth - there is nothing to worry about. We will reclaim your love from that parasite's universe post-haste. And your brother will be free as well.

As for the proverbial elephant, we could always drop him back on Earth once everything is settled. [ Noh will leave whether they actually touch down on the ground before they do it up to Billy. ]
