[The image is shaky at first, since he's holding it. A moment later and the image stabilizes and becomes much more than a chin or pair of nostrils. Stephen comes into view, he's wearing a red cloak with a high collar but it isn't his cloak and he's pretty miffed she didn't get pulled into this universe.]

Hello, everyone, I figure it's best to see if there's anyone I know here. New arrival, Doctor Stephen Strange, if that name rings a bell I congratulate you. That means you're alive and well because I was probably your Doctor. You're welcome.

[He waves a yellow-gloved hand. Underneath they were scarred and ached in certain temperatures, so he figured it'd be best to protect them in this manner.]

Now I've done this whole multiverse song-and-dance deal before. If I'd had the foresight to bring the Eye of Agamotto with me I could have taken care of your little problem. Chronoblivion? Been there, done that.

[He gets a dark look, and shakes it off. That sound exactly like Dormammu and he wouldn't be surprised if that simply was what they called him in this universe.]

Too many times.

Plus, what's the deal with giant world-eating entities? Do they have a club or something? Is it like what they do for fun since they're all bored in their dimensions?

Anyway. I decided to join your little group of Legionaires. I can't use magic here for some reason, but apparently I can still do some things. It's a little different from what I'm used to, but it's nice not having to worry about losing your sling ring.

I can honestly say I have never uttered those words together in a sentence ever in my entire life.

[ Robbie holds up his hand like he's swearing in at court. ]

I guarantee you no one has said those words together in a sentence ever. Full stop.

[strangebargains]

I'm not sure if I should say 'sorry' or 'congratulations'.

[walkingballpit]

Neither?

[ A beat. ]

I think neither's the only safe answer.

[strangebargains]

I think to be safe, I will go with your advice and say neither.

[walkingballpit]

Smart. That's why you've got all those fancy letters after your name, Doc.

[strangebargains]

That and years of hard work.

[walkingballpit]

Calling you smart doesn't mean you didn't have to work, don't get your stethoscope in a twist.

The hard work alone doesn't do it either. But what do I know, total beauty school dropout here.
