Who: Kate Bishop and YOU.
Broadcast: Fleetwide.
Action: Aboard the Blameless, as well as in Málum aboard the Iskaulit.
When: Today.
So I know I'm not the only one here who can boast both some experience and frustration with alternate worlds, dimensions, timelines, so on and futzing so forth. [ kate hits the network like she hits the ground: running. no hello, no hi, no how-do-you-do. ]
But, uh, I figured it might be good to gather some intel from people outside my little social circle. Personally, I've counted no fewer than six different versions of home. Including mine, but not including any other generally Earth-based worlds. I'm talking we had mutual acquaintances in common, but details were...different. Shout out to anyone who can identify me a seventh. It's like Pokemon at this point: gotta learn'em all.
What about the rest of you? Are other worlds a thing where you're from? A fact of life? Or are they pretty much the stuff of sci-fi -- culty, but soon to be a blockbuster reboot on a big screen near you?
Hawkeye, out.
[ -- and with that, she kicks back and waits to discuss the existential can-o-worms she just opened. part of it is almost masochistic, because she knows how little she doesn't want to learn about yet another world where the avengers exist, but she doesn't.
to take her mind off things, kate heads for her shift at málum over on the iskaulit. but something's...off, tonight. usually a paragon of coordination and balance, she's been breaking a lot of glasses tonight. futz, that's gonna come out of her pay. it puts her in a foul mood, so patrons can expect a bit of petulant surliness with their drinks. ]

[Far as she's concerned, that's enough to make it count. If there were a universe where Earth were populated entirely by walking anthropomorphic pigs, that would also still count.]
I have not, but I am not from Earth. I have only visited.
[andthreatenedtodestroyitoops]

Oh yeah? Like, are we talking a once-off kinda visit?
no subject
Three times. Only once for more than one of your planet's days.
While several other races are content to live on Earth, we Tetramands have a difficult time adjusting. Your kind often discourages battle, while we embrace it.
[And it's really not hard to imagine how well those two values mix.]

[The hell is a Switzerland? No matter.]
Human and galactic law forbid resolving any disagreement through fighting. Is that not true for the Earth you are from?
[DID SHE VISIT THE WRONG EARTH?]

...your Earth sounds much more interesting. And with much better warriors!

[Oh wait she should probably make that sound less awful humans don't typically like their stuff getting destroyed]
I would arrange to fight them outside your cities, of course- I wouldn't dream of being such an ungracious guest!
