WELCOME

House 1411

"Hello? Hello?? I'm sorry, there's nobody home right now. [ obnoxious peal of laughter: go ]

Ahh, that's right! Leave a message, and I'll get back to you. Right? That's how it goes? Aha, no telemarketers, please!

If you run up my bill, I'll have to ask you to pay the extra costs.

I'm more durable than most
And my body absorbs energy? So it just feels kinda hot is all
Feels like an adrenaline rush
Like the coolest thing ever

that sounds amazing!!
really amazing!!!!
to come and go as you please!!

[and to have somebody believe her, be impressed by her, share her enthusiasm -- it's comforting, in a strange way that she hadn't known she needed.]

It was
Still spent most of my time on earth though
What can I say, I'm a homebody

[ after all he'd seen in his world, in his life, in his travels, a flying spacewoman was the least bizarre of all the things he's beheld until now. ]

how lucky!
you must have been the envy of all travelers far and wide

I had some friends who could do it too
But I was the best, naturally
Is it only ships where you're from?

for humans, yes, only ships
some amanto could do it id imagine
your world must have been a busy one
flyers everywhere

Crises everywhere too
Flying makes it easier to get to the next one
Never a dull moment back home

[then--]

It's too quiet here

anything that isnt 'home' is too quiet

whats yours like?

Kinda like here honestly
But with more big cities
And less interdimensional kidnapping
I lived in new york, I dunno if you had a new york

we had edo
i think ive heard of new york
thats one of the american cities isnt it? across the ocean

Yep that's us
We saw more supervillain activity than probably anywhere else on the map
So we had a lot of hero types

maybe the new york of your time is like the edo of mine
a lot of excitement

What year did you have
Before you got here

by the modern calendar...
1860s?

Wait really
You're serious
B/c mine was 2013

before the amanto came we were pretty primitive in terms of technology compared to where we are now according to history
their colonization of earth jumpstarted everything by a good amount
is the shogunate still going in your time?

Considering I'm not sure what that is, I'd say no
Sounds like ancient japanese kind of territory though

maybe? its current for us
tokugawa shogunate

Not ringing any bells
Is it a government kind of thing or?

government yes
that's weird
are there many ships in your time?
how advanced are the relations with other civilizations?

We don't have commercial space travel
Only organizations that handle planetary defense use them
So SHIELD, the avengers, etc
We've had a lot of contact with other worlds, some hostile, some not
For the most part they think we're primitive and don't bother with us unless they want to take us over
"Like children" gets tossed around a lot

the amanto of your world are, if you'll pardon my saying
assholes
you have my sympathy

This is true, you are pardoned
Although they're not all bad

[mar-vell, goes the beat of her heart, mar-vell, always.]

I knew one who thought we were pretty exceptional
