Um. Hi! Sorry to send this to everyone... Well, I had a question I wanted to pose to everyone but then another thing came up and...

Does anyone know how to reattach a door to a washing machine? I had a little mishap... and I still have a lot of laundry to get done. Anyway, it'd be awful if I didn't at least ask how to put it back the way it was.

The second thing is completely unrelated. Does anyone else feel really weird about wanting friends or family to show up? I don't think I'd wish this experience on anyone against their will, but as long as we're going to be here... it'd be nice to have familiar faces, don't you think? How do you deal with the conflict?

And is there any way to request they bring crullers with them?

From...what planet?

[takingkarabusiness]

Krypton?

[helladoomed]

[Five...four...three...Did Chloe's face just light up? Yes. Yes it did.]

Holy fuck you're Supergirl.

[takingkarabusiness]

[ ...this look is surprise and some panic ]

I. Um.

You've heard of me?

[helladoomed]

[Yeah I saw your movies and grew up watching you in cartoons.' Wait that probably wouldn't work.]

Uuuuuhm. Yeah. Totally heard of you.

[takingkarabusiness]

So, you're from my world?

[helladoomed]

Nnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnooooo?

[Well shit.]

[takingkarabusiness]

...Okay.

[helladoomed]

It's just..kind of...weird to explain?

[takingkarabusiness]

...Okay.

[helladoomed]

[She's not sure what to do with all these 'okays'.]

Do you want to know?

[takingkarabusiness]

[ all these okays are "i won't press but i'm not satisfied, either" so you're on the right track ]

I mean, yes? It's kind of strange when someone's tells you they know you, but not really.

[helladoomed]

Okay so like.

...there's a movie about you? And a ton of comic books. And maybe a tv show? And a lot of cartoons.

[takingkarabusiness]

[ THIS IS VERY CONFUSING ]

[helladoomed]

[Chloe just sort of shrugged.]

There's Superman too, if that makes it less weird? Or more weird, I don't know...

[takingkarabusiness]

My cousin. Which is why you asked about the baby thing.

[helladoomed]

Yeah...

[She grins.]

So uh, I promise not to tell the world or anything, alright?

[takingkarabusiness]

I'd really appreciate that, thanks.

And I guess it's not that weird? I mean, different versions of people have shown up. It's just... jarring.

[helladoomed]

I get that. I'd be freaked out if somebody told me I was from a movie or a game or something.

[takingkarabusiness]

Well, we're all on tv now. Allegedly.

[helladoomed]

...Yeah. I guess.

Doesn't feel the same though.

[takingkarabusiness]

Not really, no. It all seems hypothetical anyway.

[helladoomed]

Yeah.

Still, jeez. Supergirl. [Chloe might be grinning a bit. Not quite nerding out but close.]

[takingkarabusiness]

It has its perks.

[helladoomed]

So like...can you go outside the ship and be alright?
