[because listen old habits die hard and haha fuck the idea of blasting identifying information over a questionably secured at best network in a freaky mystery city!!!]

So we're all just supposed to lie back and take it like this is just where our lives are now?

If you consider this place home and are getting back to previously established lives, fine whatever. But some of us aren't exactly looking to start whole new lives in a supposedly sentient city in the middle of everywhere or nowhere.

How do we make this place hate us and spit us back out or however the hell any of this works? Who's got the brains and the lab tech to reverse the bridge that brings us in to take us back? What metaphysical bullshit needs done to fix everything?

There have been way too many powerful magic users, science and tech geniuses, and gods to pass through here previously for reversing anything to be possible, because if there had been, they'd have found it. Example A: One of said magic users was mutual friends (or family) with a lot of my friends, she got possessed by some cosmic horror, killed by a magistrate for it to siphon her boosted power from it or some nonsense, then one of my other magic friends who packed a magical punch too temporarily put her soul in my body for a few minutes to try to get information and all that shit. Clearly I'm not scared of desperate measures and gambles, but it's gonna be hard to top that one.

( Bucky hasn't been here longer than a day but he's figured out how to operate the network pretty handily and when he sees the post come across by anon, he swears to god that anon could have been him. )

I'm no good for the metaphysical shit that goes into traveling between worlds but I'm not going to just accept that I'm stuck here. Maybe I wasn't doing something the second I got grabbed here but I've got a hell of a lot more that I need to be doing than walking around this city and accepting that I live here now. I'm with you on finding a way out.

you're going for the make them hate us route?

i was going for the figure out what the hell they want from us and maybe give it to them and get sent on our way route.

maybe we can compare notes in a few months, stranger.

i'm honestly not sure either one will get us anywhere.

[ Natasha is scrolling the network and right at the top of her screen, she sees the anon broadcast. oh, she knows who it is, and for a long few minutes, she isn't sure how to approach him or know what to say to help smooth things over. except to make an appearance, even through text, to let him know she's here if he wants to talk. ]

what are you up to?

For the time being, you're stuck here. I know it sucks. I know it's not what you want. I know you'd rather go home. All of us would. It's not about considering this place home, it's about making the best out of a bad situation.

Someone tried forcing the issue last time I was here. It didn't go well.
