So the transport button definitely works. Holy crap. Did I hit the jackpot or what?

Looks like there's been activity on this thing, too. Are there actually other people out there? [It occurs to him suddenly: did Peter get one of these, too? He bristles at the thought and decides to pursue answers subtly. For once.] Actually, better question: what determines who gets one of these?

Good looks, right? ;)

Okay, but seriously. If you've got some answers, humor me, will you? I'm gonna go exploring.

From what I've seen, yes. It's like picking up and putting down a book. You're at the same line you left off on.

And to be fair, everything is 'so far'. Life doesn't give many guarantees.

[goblinjr]

Guess it's nice to know the world won't move on without us.

No, no, no. Before now, I've been able to go through life without worrying about glitching into a wall. Huuuge difference, pal.

...thanks, DW. I got not notif. So sorry!

[justakidfrombrklyn]

Well, I've been going back and forth and so far, no walls. So you're probably still more likely to get bumped by a taxi in midtown or something.

No worries. :)

[goblinjr]

Gonna hold you to that, and if I ever get stuck in a wall, I'm haunting you in the afterlife, buddy.

[justakidfrombrklyn]

Only if one of these things works for the undead.

[goblinjr]

Is that a challenge?

[justakidfrombrklyn]

Well, if you feel like testing it, I'm not about to stop you. But it seems a bit much for an off hand comment from a stranger.

[goblinjr]

I'm joking, man. But I mean, if I ever figure out who you are, I might be tempted to haunt you with a hologram of a ghost.

Fair warning.

[justakidfrombrklyn]

I'm sure the team'd love that. I'm almost tempted to say you ought to do it, just to see some of their faces.

[goblinjr]

Team? Do you play sports?

I can totally do it, though. I've got the tech.

[justakidfrombrklyn]

I'm sure Tony'd love to see that.

And no, not a sports team. It's a bit of a unique situation.

[goblinjr]

Consider it done! I could use a laugh, myself. I'm Harry, by the way.

'Unique situation', huh? You've got me curious now.

[justakidfrombrklyn]

Steve.

And it's not really much of a secret.

[ Especially considering his username. ]

But I'll admit, I've mostly been using this thing and my trips to the city as time off from work.

[goblinjr]

I guess I'm not catching your drift. Nice to meet you, Steve.

[No Avengers where this Harry's from means he's totally clueless that he's talking to a world-class hero.]

Who can blame you? We all could use a vacation.

[justakidfrombrklyn]

Too right. And nice to meet you right back.

[goblinjr]

So! Tell me. Since you've already teleported back and forth so much, you got any recommendations? You know, for places to visit?

[justakidfrombrklyn]

Well, I'm currently in the City of Adventure, backpacking. But mostly I've been enjoying my time in the City of Tomorrow. But the City of Shadows feels like where I'm from, so I'll admit, I've spent a decent amount of time wandering around there.
