[Dave is always coming and going between his homeworld and the SFC, and every time he presses that transport button, every time he tells his girlfriend and his master but not his parents everything he's seen, more questions form in his mind.]

Surprise, the multiverse exists! So now you can explore, learn, and then... what happens then? Have you gone home after visiting the SFC? And what did you do? Just... went on like always?

Have you made toast while thinking about unicorns and non-fatal anvils?

Is it weird to come to the meta-universe hub and take advantage of a temporal anomaly to finish your paper on oscillation?

Is normal life overrated? Am I thinking too much?

[He got carried away and wrote without really thinking (the irony). So a second texts comes after that.]

Rhetorical question, don't answer the last one.

[After another moment, a third text arrives to finally close the feed.]

PS: Is anyone else going to check out the Inverted Cathedral? Because if I go alone I just know it won't end well.

Well, we get those back home too, but it's nice that they just get to chill here and I don't have to actively fight them?

Okay, creepy. Why would you want to go there? It sounds like it's probably full of draculas.

[dragonring]

Funny, they want heroes here too. I wonder what they think about these breaks

Vampires usually hang out at Nightmare. [A sigh.] I wanna see the place with my own eyes, figure out exactly why and how it happened.

[weekend_avenger]

Well if they want heroes here, they didn't do a very good job picking them, I mean, since I got one of these things.

So if you touch stuff there, will bad things happen?

[dragonring]

Maybe they thought you could put those arrows to a good use? [He remembers the username!]

That's what they said. I don't think touching will be needed to sense the magic anyway.

[weekend_avenger]

I guess if they need me to arrow something, sure. I'll consider this vacation until then.

Place sounds like the Sanctum, everything you try to touch there probably wants to eat you or turn you inside out or something.

[dragonring]

That's totally fair, man. [Dave's been doing some hero-ing but to be honest, he uses this place to escape some times too.] Sanctum? Like that bad claustrophobic movie about underwater caves?

[weekend_avenger]

Wow I've never seen that movie, so no.

The uh, Sanctum Sanctorum-- it's where our world's super cool master sorcerer guy lives. He's like the wizard.

This place would probably rock his socks off.

[dragonring]

You aren't missing much. [There's a pause then because - welp. Dave sure has a lot to say about "super cool master sorcerer guys". Now he's curious.] So there's magic in your world too? Can you use it?

[weekend_avenger]

There is, but I can't, no... there's a bunch of people with powers too, like mutants and inhumans and supersoldiers... I could probably go on.

But i'm actually normal guy.

[dragonring]

Oh. [Another pause.] When I asked if normal is overrated I was just-- wondering about life, not trying to be like. Insulting or anything.

[weekend_avenger]

Oh, man, don't worry, you didn't offend. I was just saying... there's a lot going on where I come from.

[dragonring]

Right. "Normal" will always be relative, won't it? [Man, he can already hear his master all smug about this.]
