Hey. There's a lot of old information on this, and that's great. Really. But it's also a l o t for newcomers to try and sift through. There was some talk of a guide, which would be awesome? Even if it's just a basic rundown of world stuff that isn't the wiki-ish pages of the internet that just assume we know crap, it'd be helpful.

Back home, I was on a team called the Young Avengers. We went on a multiverse jumping spree for several months, so this isn't my first rodeo. It is the first place I've been to where we woke up with our abilities locked away and given new ones. Super weird btw, I'm not fond of it. As someone who already went through the whole "traumatic event waking up your mutant powers" thing, I'm not up for round two. But it means I've got some history with jumping around to different places.

I've got a place outside the safe house already, but it's not really a space meant for more than one or MAYBE two people, and we've got three. So if anyone has ideas for an easy job to get into for new arrivals, let me know? Disclaimer: I've never had an actual job before. And I didn't have much of an idea of what to set up an ID with since, I really don't have any experience doing workforce things.

After a while, pain is just another sensation. There's nothing special about it. You learn to make space for it.

[Look. He's in pain all the time, from the collar bolted down into his bones.]

I'm indifferent to it. But if it makes you feel any better, I do intend to avoid gunshot wounds from now on. The recovery time isn't worth it. And it looks as though my roommate wasn't happy cleaning up the mess.

Selfcare. It sounds like nonsense.

But as I say, I'm not feeling in any hurry to repeat the experience. As it turns out, normal healing is an incredibly tedious process.


[And he's still healing faster than a normal human would. Just slower than he's used to, hence the whining.]

Dare I ask what it entails.

You seem very invested.

I can't say it's a mindset I'll ever understand.

It's not as simple as that. It's a mindset, not a new hat. And I don't want to, besides.

Death isn't such a bad thing.

I couldn't think of many things worth more.

That depends on your definition, I suspect.
