Video | Fresh meat

Who: Mon-El
Broadcast: Video
Action: Marsiva if you're new too!
When: Now until he gets shuffled like the deck of cards he is! (What?)

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.]

[Hey, just because he has secrets doesn't mean he's up to anything! Maybe.]

Super brew? I knew there was a reason you were my favorite. [Okay, that's probably Kara, but Winn was always the easier sell. That counts for something, right?]

About a month? [Asking as if Winn can even clarify.]

Mmhmm, that's why you wish abduction on me?

[ he's gotta give you a hard time on that one, it was a dick move. ]

[Oh you caught that part, huh?] Hey, I'm on my third in a month. I'd help Kara rescue you if you did?

[ it was kind of impossible to miss. ]

Wow, thank you. [ dry, so dry. he doesn't have powers, he doesn't even have alex's training. if he gets abducted by someone who wants to do him harm, he's done for. ] Very reassuring coming from someone who keeps getting caught. That Cadmus thing have anything to do with it?

[ he did not forget his previous questions. ]

[He doesn't really want it to happen. Having powers is still kind of new to him too.] They were number two. DEO was the first, but that was more of a misunderstanding.

The DEO's more about containment. Did you give them a reason to think you're a threat? [ because he's getting that feeling that you could casually accidentally -- do that. ]

Well, I woke up in a strange place and broke out and went to find a way to signal home. Meanwhile, someone who was definitely not me was out doing bad things. They thought it was me.

So that's less an abduction and more being detained as part of an ongoing investigation. What was the other one?

I mean...one person's detainment can be another person's abduction. [Especially when you don't know any Earth laws yet.] These Atroma could be saying the same, right? [They're not, but they could be.]

The other one was now. This is three.

They could but they'd be wrong - DEO is trying to keep people safe, the Atroma are making a reality show.

[ supposedly, he's still not sure he buys that. but whatever. ]

I meant two, you still haven't told me what Cadmus is.

It's a group who really doesn't like having aliens on Earth and they work pretty hard to do something about it.

[ okay that...sounds like a proper traumatizing kidnapping. yeah, he definitely gets a softer and more sympathetic look and tone at that. ]

Sucks for them, it'll amount to nothing. [ he believes in kara, he believes in alex, he believes in hank (he's pretty scared of him and they're on the same side) and he believes that if things get dire - kara will be okay with calling superman, and he's always believed in him.

oh, and he's pretty handy too. ]

[He smiles at that. Good show of confidence, Winn.] So far you're right. [His expression dims thinking of those bodies on the floor in the bar though.] Mostly right. [A very important correction.]

How does this work? Am I supposed to be keeping the future secret?

Jury's still out on that one - but I'll take the risk.

[ how can he not? he's already dying of curiosity. and if they do manage to bust out...hey, he'll already be changing the timeline by adding people who weren't there. ]

[Does that mean there would eventually be two Mon-El's? Is there enough ale in National City for that?]

That's easy for you to say. What if I'm the one who doesn't exist because of it? [Then he'd probably deserve it anyway.]

Pretty sure you were already born in February, and if you weren't - no bar for you.

Well, I did crash land on Earth and was out for awhile. All vulnerable and alone. I could have fallen in with the wrong crowd.

I'd help Kara rescue you.

[ how's that shoe feeling? ]

You always do. [What shoe? Everything feels fine here.]

[ are you buttering him up? he's feeling very buttered. he could get used to it. ]

So you're covered. Okay, we don't have to dive right into the heavy stuff, let me just ask you one thing. Am I dating anyone? [ he sincerely doubts it, but he's pretty sure that'll be the first thing on kitty's mind when he tells her about the guy from his future. ]

[He was being genuine. He doesn't need anything yet. Except maybe friends so maybe he was. Also, that was not the "one thing" he expected to be asked. Not that he had a list or anything.]

Not that you've mentioned, but we can work on that. What was it called? Being a tail man?

[ it takes him a second to work it out. ]

Chasing tail, wing man. And thanks, but I got it covered.

Chasing tail, wing man. Got it. [He doesn't got it.]

You're mated with someone here?

[ congratulations mon-el, you found a creepier word than lover. you get a face. ]

-- never say that, it sounds super creepy. I have a girlfriend.

If you say so. [He's sure it's no stranger than the terms they use.]

That's great, man. Congratulations. Who is she?
