[...con... fetti? alright, that sure is a thing that just happened. Billy's used to teleporting, but it's never felt quite like this. so weird. everything about this is weird, weird, weird, and coming from him that's saying something.

Reaching around the back of his head, he pats awkwardly at where the augment rests, disturbed, and starts wandering through the halls of the ship. Might as well get acquainted, and maybe make sure he's not just super crazy right now. You never know, where he's from.]

( private; text to kate )

So are my powers busted or are you the only one here?

[Location spell went kinda haywire, whoops.]

( video; fleetwide )

Okay, so, ignoring that this is kind of awful and I hate that I apparently can't teleport myself home...

Any advice for first-timers? Can't say I've watched much reality TV back home. Um, barring that... what's some good places to visit off-ship if you've got like five cents to your name?

It's very, uh. Colourful here.

Don't worry cher, ya not nothin' to worry 'bout. [Remy offered with a smile to reassure him, before it took on a more joking tone.] Not sure I could say the same 'bout m'self if ya ever ran 'nto 'nother one of me, have too much fun gettin' up to no good.

Well, I don't know what reality you're from, but I have met my world's, um, Remy. [Gambit.] Or I guess it's more like we saw each other? It's not like we exchanged hellos or anything. There was a lot going on at the time.

[There was a shrug to go along with that grin of his.] Ah, that sounds 'bout right, donno 'bout other versions of me but I tend not to get 'nto the limelight if I can avoid it, doesn't really work with m' normal profession, hein?

Plus donno if I would rather make name for m'self rather than ya judgin' me based on actions of 'nother. [Even if that was a risk, maybe the other Remy left a better impression on people than he has at times.]

I think I can manage that.

[It's sort of the nature of the game when it comes to alternate realities.]

Good to hear. [An offer of a warm smile that had lost that edge of the grin, less joking than he had been before.] Feel free to give a yell if need a hand with 'nything, we're all stuck in this together after all.

Oh, 'nd if ya really worried 'bout cash, [And wanted to get it more legitimately than Remy did at times.] 'nd want to burn some time between stops, there be a few places 'round here for work, donno if they got space for new comers at the moment, but worth keepin' an eye on if ya needin' to get 'way from that tin cans they keep us in.

Sounds normal enough- if you want money, work for it. Capitalism at its finest.

[well, familiar is better than not, probably. makes it easier to adjust.]

My skillset is pretty limited, though... hopefully they're forgiving of my lack of experience.

What makes the world go 'round. [He certainly knew that all too well, and from both sides.

Remy shrugged off Billy's comment with a wave of his hand.] Eh, don't worry too much 'bout that. Most 'round here a good folks, sure willin' to give ya a go if ya wanna try something out. So many people from different places, 'nd times, 'nd universes that we got a large pool of knowledge floatin' 'round here. 'nd worse case, do have those chip things they got stuck in our heads 'nd feedin' us all sorts of 'nformation.

That's good to know. Back home you know how it goes, "entry level position, requires 12 years experience". S'why in some ways it's actually easier to be a super.
