Who: two nerds and you
Broadcast: fleetwide
Action: Marsiva
When: now!
[ The audio comes on sharply, but everything is still dark as two people discuss their situation.]
Is that the camera? Can you get it to work?
I - think so? Here, push this --
I am pushing it, Hank. I thought you knew about these from that show you keep watching. Space Trek?
It's Star Trek and that isn't exactly - you know, the same thing as this.
Right. . . . Wait, I think I see something on the side.
[ And the video flickers on, the red light glowing softly. It focuses on two men. One in a wheelchair and the other right next to him, peering curiously at the camera before they step back satisfied. ]
Well, that’s over and done with. Hello to anyone who might be out there. My name is Charles Xavier and this is Hank McCoy. Apparently we’ve been kidnapped again, by an unknown force again for some mysterious reason.
[muttered:] Again. [and louder] So if anyone would be kind enough to explain exactly what's going on, we'd appreciate it. You have our thanks in advance.
But do keep it pertinent.

Re: [ video ]
He leans back. There were mutants here. Some were connected to him and he didn't know what to make of that. Should he really try to reach people or respect that their realities are too different? It's not fair to ask them to reconcile their version of Charles Xavier with himself.
That being said, he is still Charles Xavier. ]
Fair enough. Thank you for sharing what you can. I imagine it isn't easy.

[Across every universe, being an X-Man counted for something.]

[ The X-Men are disjointed and gone. But he knows the people he's supposed to find and protect. Scott, Jean, Ororo. He'll find them. ]
