[Cable doesn't waste much time signing in to Riverview's network, opting for audio as a means to announce himself.]

New arrival to the Quarantine. Name's Cable. [He pauses for a moment. He's checking stuff out as he roams around, both in the scenery and the network itself. He's been in different periods of time and has been dumped randomly in places before. So excuse him if he sounds fairly casual about all of this.]

Guessing there's no known way out of this place, right? [At least they aren't restricted to just the city/town by the look of things. A little exploring might do him some good, then.]

..Right.

I mean, [Freya replies in a light thoughtful tone.] You can technically close your eyes and jump back into the portal but there is no guarantee that it'll go back to your world.

I've done the math and chance is not on your side.

Audio

[mutant_messiah]

Sounds about right. Not really up for pushing my luck just yet.

Audio

[luckyescape]

Can I ask why you want to get home or is it super personal... on the same side it might be super obvious. I mean brought to a new place against your will, etc. I just figured it was worth asking since you wanted to ask, you know, everyone.

Audio

[mutant_messiah]

Super obvious works. Mostly a rhetorical question otherwise.

Audio

[luckyescape]

Got cha.

[She makes a finger gun but he can't see it.]

Well, if you have any other rhetorical or non-rhetorical questions, you currently got me. I'm waiting for my code to comply and it's super boring.

Audio

[mutant_messiah]

Nothing comes to mind.

[...]

But I'm bored too. Got any questions for the new guy?

Audio

[luckyescape]

[She hums thoughtfully.]

What's your favorite flavor of ice cream?

[11calls]

Unfortunately not. They'll find a way to send us all home eventually, though.

As for the exploring, you should be careful beyond the wall. There's tons of creepy stuff there.

Wouldn't be my first time ending up somewhere I didn't ask to be.

Sounds like plenty to keep me busy, at least.

[11calls]

Really? How many places like this have you ended up on?

And yeah, it really is never dull here.

[mutant_messiah]

Too many to count.

[More time periods than anything, but eh, it's all kind of similar.]

Good.

[11calls]

Wow.

[Alex sounds a little impressed, because she is.]

Do you have like some sort of device or does the universe just kinda throw you around willy nilly?

[mutant_messiah]

[He appreciates it. Fortunately he is also not the sort to brag.]

A device, usually. Sometimes it feels like both.

[backwaterbelle]

[To be fair, their universe is fairly casual about all sorts of Really Weird Shit, and she's while she's experienced his time traveling antics previously, it does not bode well that he's here.

Then again, it doesn't seem to have been a planned trip for the other mutant.]

People have disappeared, but ah ain't heard where they go. [She pauses with a frown. The information she has about that is spotty at best.] You come bearing bad news Cable?

[She also texts him a location of an access point to beyond the wall. In case he wants a tour with an in person run down.]

Action

[mutant_messiah]

[Interesting bit of info there. Something for him to look into one day, perhaps.]

Not this time. [For once.]

[He's gonna head to that access point now and responds saying as much.]

[backwaterbelle]

[Since Rogue's currently in the City, it doesn't take too long for her to fly to the location and perch on the wall to keep an eye out for the familiar form of the other mutant. She's out of uniform, but wearing gloves and sturdy boots with her jeans and t-shirt. Comfortable and practical. Well, necessary in the case of the gloves.

When she sees him approaching, she floats herself down to the ground and offers him a welcoming grin. No matter what time he's from, it's good to see another familiar face.]

Hello Nathan. Dare ah ask what you remember last?

[mutant_messiah]

[He has the decency to offer Rogue a slight nod of the head and a bit of a smirk in response. No matter if they were on the same side or opposing ideals wise, she was still beyond easy on the eyes.

More-so than the gruff Cable was of course.]

Would be understandable, in my case. I was in the future with Hope. Raising her.

[backwaterbelle]

[Well she won't argue either of those facts.

At his response, her eyebrow raises and she lets out a resigned exhale.]

Ah'm still from your past obviously, but it's been a bit since then. You've brought her to our time already.

[Which by the heaviness of her voice it sounds like all didn't quite go as planned. But, when does that ever happen?]

[mutant_messiah]

[When indeed?]

So she'll convince me then.

[He doesn't sound too surprised by that part of it. Hope had taken to asking him about going back to the present more often as she got older.]

[neversurrender]

[Despite the unimaginative username this is not the Cap you know, Cable. Not that anything gives that away at first, unless you're that good at distinguishing the minute differences in voices. Like the fact that he sounds younger.]

People disappear sometimes. There's never much warning. But sometimes they come back and it turns out they were just returned home for awhile. Can't say if that's what happens every time though.

voice; un: n.summers

[mutant_messiah]

[He hears the youth, but to him Cap is usually (reliably) Cap. Cable won't be making a fuss about it. To be honest he can't help but feel a little relief at the sound of his voice and the knowledge of who it is speaking; though to be honest he already knows some of who's here.

Public network records and all that jazz. Just to see if any names were familiar...or trouble.]

Captain.

[He can hear the familiarity in Cable's voice, the mutant not disguising it. Steve Rogers is one of the few people in the history of the world that is genuinely worthy of respect.]

There's no pattern to it?

voice;

[neversurrender]

[The familiarity is a surprise at first, so much that he double checks the username to see if it's someone he knows. But no, he doesn't know anyone named Summers.

But with all the different timelines crossing in this place, the surprise quickly wears off. If not him, this man might be someone the other Steve knows.]

No pattern that anyone can distinguish for sure. At least, not as far as I've heard.

And since you sound familiar with who I am, you should know that there are other Steve Rogers here then just me. [There are three to be exact.]

voice;

[mutant_messiah]

[Ah, there it is. That honesty. Just one of the many qualities of Cap that commanded respect. It's okay Steve, he already knows. He looked at the public records/comm posts to see if there were any familiar names on it.

Still--]

So you aren't the one I know. Not complaining either way. I'm sure you're a good man too.

voice;

[neversurrender]

Thanks. I like to think I try.

I can put you in contact with the other Steve I know. He might be your guy. But you can just as easily reach out to him yourself. He goes by sg.rogers on the network.

voice

[mutant_messiah]

They say it's the best any of us can do.

Thanks, Captain. I'm sure I'll bump into him one way or another.
