driftfleet | o1;; You didn't see that coming?

Who: Pietro & You!
Broadcast: yes
Action: SS Bloodsport
When: Right now

[ Video;; ]
[ The video feed shakes, the audio cracking as the communicator is moved around. The broadcasting image so far is the floor, covered in multicolored confetti, and a pair of black and grey running sneakers in view. The left foot taps impatiently before the video swings again to the bridge of the Bloodsport. ]

[ There is a sigh before heavily accented voice accompanies the shoddy cameraman-ship. ] If this is someone's idea of a prank, it lacks humor.

[ The communicator finally turns around, and Pietro is very firmly not happy with this situation. ]

I have complaints.

[ SS Bloodsport;; ]
[ Pietro can be found in various places throughout the Bloodsport. In the kitchen, trying to figure out what the deal with protein paste is. The bridge offers a bit of a distraction with the endless sea of stars or the array of broadcast settings, and how can he resist settling into the bunks? It's been a very long time since he's had his own room. ]

I'm afraid they don't seem to care if you have complaints or not.

A pity for them. Should they happen to show up, they'll be getting quite the earful.

It'll be a never ending stream of complaints. I almost feel bad for them

I would feel bad for them, but I cannot find it in me.

Neither can I, considering everything they've done to earn those complaints.

What have they done?

Well, it isn't as though any of us came here willingly.

No. That would be stupid.

A bit. [there are those people here who are dead back home, so it benefits them, but . . . he's not gonna get into that]

Complaints aside, have you gotten all the welcome information?

[ He still has no idea what's in store for him. When he does, he may change his tune about the Fleet.. ]

I believe so, unless you feel like there is information you should share.

[poor Pietro, he's in for a hell of a time]

There's nothing I can think of off the top of my head, no. - ah. If you're the type to keep track of things, write it down so you have a hard copy. [there that's good advice] I've heard of things going missing on the communicators.

Other than that - not really. Welcome?

I'll take those into consideration, thank you, ah--

[ He tilts his head. ]

I don't believe I got your name.

Oh - sorry, right. My name's Hank McCoy - it's nice to meet you?

Pietro Maximoff. It's a pleasure, Hank.

[oh . . . well. Even knowing Peter was Pietro in other worlds, it's still a surprise to actually be speaking to him. He'll apologize for the stare in a moment]

—ah. The pleasure's all mine, Pietro.

You wouldn't happen to be a mutant, would you? Or - it's called enhanced in some of the worlds, I think?

Enhanced, yes. And Wanda is my twin sister.

[ He has definitely been told about alternates by someone. Not quite the right world, but close enough. In the end, they'll always be siblings no matter what universe. ]

I haven't had the honor of meeting Wanda yet.

[welcome to the other worlds confusion]

I know a Peter Maximoff, so apologies ahead of time if I slip and call you that.

[ She is the better twin, honestly. All he can do is run really fast and hit things at super speed. ]

I will forgive the slip.

[hey there's nothing wrong with being really fast]

Thanks. [a bit apologetically:] You've already run into people recognizing you, I take it? Or at least your name.

A few, yes. Including one man who heard my name and hung up on me.

[ That was really weird. ]

[that is really weird gosh who would do such a thing]

Just like that? Did you get his name?

Erik Lehnsherr?

[ Do you know this guy? Is he like this with everyone, or is Pietro just a special snowflake? ]

[. . . oh.

Ohhhhhh]

Ah. W-Well - I wouldn't hold it against him.

I'm only confused by it, not angry.

I'd be confused, too.
