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. ]

That's quite the hobby. Are you very rich? Or is archery for leisure no longer restricted to the upper class?

[That must have been nice. All of his friends weren't exactly in the poverty or low-income area, but they weren't exactly...high class samurai either.]

Oh, so it is still only for the richer class? That's unfortunate. I was never quite well off enough to learn for fun.

[That was the thing though, wasn't it? You were either super rich and did it for leisure, or super poor and did it to survive. And hopefully not get caught eating whatever the heck it was the Shogunate decided to ban that decade.]

Ah, I see. So when you began shooting archery for more than just fun, was it he who taught you your skills?

Were you not using them for good before then?
