[video] Dip-dop Says Hello

[There is a noodle-child on the comms, one that looks maybe only just old enough to be a Legionnaire. His hat is missing because he lost it on the planet and his slightly poofy hair is sticking up, so that a birth mark in the shape of the Big Dipper is visible on his forehead. He's currently hyperventilating. His eyes are wide and he's breathing like every new breath makes it even harder to take the next breath.]

Oh man. Oh man. Oh man.

[Will someone help this wayward child? This poor, clearly terrified--]

This is the best thing ever!

[Okay, so maybe he's not hyperventilating because he's scared. Maybe he's just so excited he can barely breathe right. In fact, he's so excited he basically went on the network pretty much as soon as the omnicom was put in his hands. The situation got explained to him -- and he lied his butt off about his age because they mentioned the age limit before they asked what his was -- and now he's clearly still in his Medbay bed, not even released from the Medbay yet, hyperventilating on the comms in excitement over his situation.]

Not the whole being dimensionally displaced part -- even if time supposedly isn't passing back home -- or the, y'know, mortal peril part, but we're in space! Did you all see that? You can just look outside the window! And it's space!

And my doctor had four arms! And was purple!

[Yes, he's excited. Supposedly, he even has superpowers now.]

And we all have superpowers! And -- what am I saying, all you people know this, right? They said other people have been here longer. Do you all have cool powers? Are any of you aliens? Mutants? Or, like, I dunno, space wizards with laser swords or something? That seems like a thing that could happen.

[His other hand comes in frame and he makes a gimme gimme gesture.]

Gimme the lay of the land. What am I looking at here?

[A pause and then he finally remembers maybe he should give his name. He says it like it's an afterthought.]

Oh yeah, I'm Dipper Pines.

[ God. Is this kid a Holmes fanboy or something? ]

That's...pretty evocative.

Just as long as we're clear that nobody's got time to roll the s if they're yelling for you in the middle of a fight.

Actually, in the middle of a fight, you're probably just gonna be Cap.

Hey, "Cap" is better than acceptable, that makes you sound like Captain America, who is awesome.

He's strong and brave, here to save the American Way.

Where I come from: yes.

According to one guy I met here: he's not just a character everywhere.

Well, if you consider an infinite number of possible combinations of the elements that define any reality, then I guess it's technically inevitable, but in this small of a statistical sampling, I'm still pretty impressed that we actually see it happen within this group.

[ Because come on, there aren't even two dozen people here and yet he met an Avenger. What were the odds? ]

Exactly.

[ oh god, someone gets it without asking for smaller words. HE LIKES YOU ALREADY, DIPPER. ]
