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. ]

.... Ooooh.

[HE'S GOTCHA.]

I'm from Tokyo!! Is that a different world from you? We get monsters there. Aliens and stuff.

'Hella good' shopping!

And good ice cream!

[He smiles big.]

When me and my dad lived on the street we walked aaaaall over the place.

Mmmhmm.

But it's okay; I was happier more on the street with him than in a apartment with my old mom.

He always takes care of me.

... It's okay. It's nice to wish, but...! We can't have everything we want in life.

I guess that's true...

[He smiles, rosy.]

I've had a lot of really happy days. I never thought I'd get them, but I did. D'you wanna know a real good, um... thing I learned before? It was from a doctor named Seuss.

It's how I remember the important stuff!

[He clears his throat, making sure he has the saying right in his head.]

Don't cry because it's over. Smile because it happened.

Mhmm! It's okay if we forget sometimes. It's hard to change how your heart feels.

But we gotta try to remember there was good stuff with the bad, too.
