Hi. So, this is not what I was expecting today. [He was expecting some additional rest and recovery after the last few days. Instead, he feels mysteriously good as new.] I'd just heard some great things about Netflix, and I was looking forward to chilling with it. [Someone may have missed giving him the full explanation and context of that phrase. Ooooor maybe they didn't.]

I am getting tired of being the one who always gets abducted. Winn and Alex could take turns too. Just saying.

[A soft sigh. He's staying in pretty good spirits despite everything, but he's wondering if this is doing him any good.] Is anyone even listening to this?

[And just in case someone is.] My name is Mon-El.

[Oh, wait.]

Mike!

I meant Mike. [Almost definitely no one noticed that. It was very smooth. He'll just turn this off now.]

Kara. You're here too. [Well, here is relief and worry at the same time.] We have to stop meeting like this. [He smiles at her because you know, Cadmus captives unite?]

What do you mean what do I know about Winn and Alex?

[takingkarabusiness]

Sorry, do we know each other?

[spacebro]

[...What?]

Good one? [He's looking for the joke, but there's some worry in the eyes.]

[takingkarabusiness]

[ she's unfortunately not joking. her tone is more confused ]

You clearly know me. This place is weird, though. You could be from another world or from a different point in time...

[spacebro]

I was always from another world. Daxam. [Probably not the best thing to bring up to her, is it?]

[takingkarabusiness]

Wait, you're a Daxamite? How do we know each other? How did you survive? What is even happening?

[ is she getting punk'd? ]

[spacebro]

Does it have to sound so shocking you'd know a Daxamite? [He's getting the feel of what's happening from Winn, but really? They are going to do this again?]

[takingkarabusiness]

[ all over again ]

Well, considering how I didn't know any had made it to Earth, yeah! It's kind of a surprise! Not to mention I'm not really known for my keg stands so I don't know where we'd meet.

[spacebro]

[Then it's a good thing he's not always the most mature!]

Maybe you'd be friendlier to new people if you loosened up with the occasional keg stand.

[takingkarabusiness]

I'm friendly to new people. I'm super friendly to new people! People who don't namedrop my sister and best friend like we know each other!

[spacebro]

I do know them! And J'onn and James and Maggie kind of [He knows they exist.] The girl at CatCo. [Who probably has a name. Most people do.] Lena... Eliza! People!

[takingkarabusiness]

Maggie? Lena? I'm not sure booty calls count.

[spacebro]

I didn't call them. I just met them with you and what's a booty?

[takingkarabusiness]

Oh, I'm sure you'll figure it out sooner rather than later, Daxamite.

[spacebro]

Is everyone from Krypton so stuck up? [Sometimes flirting takes a strange turn.]

[takingkarabusiness]

Is everyone from Daxam so irritating?

[spacebro]

Most people find me charming and fun. [This is possibly not him at his most charming or fun.]

[takingkarabusiness]

Yeah, I'm sure. Well, you'll love it here. All the time in the world to goof off.

[spacebro]

Hey, I'm... [more than that. Or he's been trying to be for her.]

Never mind. It sounds great. I guess I'll just do what all Daxamites do.

[takingkarabusiness]

You're what?

[spacebro]

...Trying.

[takingkarabusiness]

[ That trips her up a bit... I mean, he did just show up here, and it must be tremendously demoralizing for people he recognizes to not recognize him, but he could just be trying to manipulate her... ]

How do you know us?

[spacebro]

[We're friends.] You found me and my ship when it crashed. You've been teaching me about Earth and training me.

[takingkarabusiness]

Yeah, about that. Where did you come from? How'd you survive Daxam?

[spacebro]

[There's a long pause. Too much emotion or reconsidering the story he tells? The audience may never know. When he does speak he gives the same answer he did when he met her. After all, he did just meet her again.]

I was a palace guard for the royal family. Debris was falling on the planet and I was trying to protect the prince. We saw a Kryptonian pod still intact. I got in to program it for him, and he locked me in saying he wanted me to go while he stayed with his people.
