[technology like this is easier to learn the second time around. so steve rogers, product of the 1940's, takes to the tab like a duck to water.]

Just when I thought I couldn't get any farther from Brooklyn, I end up on another planet. But between the cave and all those Flash Gordon comics that my buddy and I used to read, maybe I should've seen this one coming.

[speaking of buddies:]

My name's Steve Rogers. I'm looking for anyone who might've ended up here with me, or maybe knew me before that. [steve frowns, brows thoughtfully furrowed.] Or...after that, I guess. I hear I look a little bit different then.

I'd also rather not waste any time when it comes to pulling my own weight, but I'd like to do that while also helping others. If anyone knows of jobs that can do both, I'm all ears. Thanks.

I was joking, though it's generally acknowledged my sense of humor is long lost.

You have experience with alternate versions of yourself already?

[prespangled]

With all the other changes I go through, that would probably be the least surprising.

Not really. I was just somewhere else before I got here and I heard about him. Me. It gave me a lot to think about.

[warandpeace]

I've seen a lot of duplicates in my life at this point. It's a hard idea to adjust to.

[prespangled]

Does it happen a lot here?

[warandpeace]

It happens enough.

Some people just happen to look a lot alike, too. Can't tell if they're different versions of the same person or if the Ingress tends to like certain faces.

[prespangled]

I guess I get that. I'm pretty attached to mine too.

[steve, no.]

[That can mean any number of things, but Kaz finds it pretty funny anyway. He actually laughs.] At least you've got experience.
