Guess I should probably check in, huh?

I'm Tony and I'm still exploring this cool little device. Any recommendations on where to go/what to check out?

Oh hey, Tony.

How's it going?

[ Cause this isn't awkward at ALL or anything. ]

[iron_man]

Oh hey, you got one of these, too?

[ The fact that he doesn't remember the Steve from his timeline mentioning it kind of tells him this isn't the one he knows, so... Huh. ]

How long have you been around here?

[justakidfrombrklyn]

I've had one of these for a few months now. Been using it for recreation time in our busy schedule.

Pretty helpful, honestly.

[iron_man]

Yeah, that's kind of how I'm using mine right now. I had a break in between cleaning up Manhattan, so...here I am.

[justakidfrombrklyn]

So you're in the SFC then?

[iron_man]

I am. Still learning my way around, but it's a good way to pass the time in between missions.

[capwolf]

Check City of Tomorrow. You'll enjoy it.

Do you recognize me? [ He's been here a bit. He has learned to ask. ]

[iron_man]

I'll keep that in mind.

[ He has to do a double take, and it takes a moment to answer before he finally types back: ]

I think so. Steve?

[ Two of you? he almost asks, considering the previous message he had answered to, but waits for an answer before he asks. ]

[capwolf]

Yep. I'd say the one and the only, but not hte case here. If it gets too confusing, just assume the scruffy one's me and the annoying one's the other guy.

[justakidfrombrklyn]

You know I can see this, hatstealer.

[capwolf]

If you couldn't see it, I wouldn't be saying it.

[justakidfrombrklyn]

Fair point.

[iron_man]

There really are two of you?

The scruff will help in telling you apart, though, so thanks for the tip. I heard about the whole alternate universes thing, but for some reason I didn't expect a Cap that wasn't clean-shaven.

[capwolf]

There are really two of us.

And I shave! Let's just say my five o'clock shadow shows up faster than his.

[iron_man]

Interesting. Is there another one of me floating around here, too, or is the universe kind enough to avoid that kind of thing?

Well, I'll just have to get you a better razor for Christmas.

[goblinjr]

Depends. What kind of stuff interests you? Because there's just about something for everyone here. Including the lunatics.

[iron_man]

I did the City of Laughter and liked the bars. Technology interests me overall, so I guess City of Tomorrow from what I've been told? But I'm generally curious, so I'm open to suggestions.

I'm sure some would lump me in the 'lunatics' category, so lay it on me.

[goblinjr]

Just beware of banana peels if you go back. Tomorrow's pretty cool. They're having a STEM fair soon, so if science is your thing, there's still time to enter.

Hah! Well, the SFC's got this City of Nightmare. There's a ReQuest open over there right now to help some hotel owner rid this haunted room of a serial killer's ghost. It sounds cheesy, but I went and they're totally not playing around. Add in the fact that there's a murderer running around the lake over there and... yeah. It's called "Nightmare" for a reason.

[iron_man]

Thank you, I'll definitely need to check that out when the fair starts.

Huh. Well, guess I know where to go next.

[goblinjr]

You're seriously gonna go?

You ARE a lunatic. There's GHOSTS. Real ones!

[american_alien]

There's a TON of stuff. What kind of stuff do you like?

Oh, hi, by the way. Clark.

[iron_man]

Technology, mainly. I like to balance it out with having fun, though.

[american_alien]

Have you been out to the Satellite yet? There's all kinds of places and aliens and crazy cool tech stuff. The shuttle is right behind the McAran building.

The smoothies at the shop with the orange sign are really good and they're not too pricey.

[iron_man]

I haven't, but that has now been added to my to-do list. You sold me on crazy cool tech stuff. And aliens, huh?

Smoothies are always good, so that will definitely happen, too.

[american_alien]

Yeah, there's aliens. I've been up there talking to some of them. Most of them are pretty nice, though a lot of them kinda wish I'd buy something. But allowance only goes so far, you know?

But it's still pretty cool.
