I'm so sorry

[selfhelp]

Uh-oh. Teaming up with former X-Men now? Should we be worried about you ditching us for the cool kids?

I'm so sorry

[dickmoves]

[ Ah.

... Ah.

Damnit, he can't even snark back right. ]

Very.

[selfhelp]

[...Huh.

Well, that was... weird. But whatever, that's Tommy for you. Billy quirks a brow but refrains from commenting, instead leading the way into the restaurant so they can get something to eat. Despite the whole wing thing, thankfully this place is pretty normal.]

So... I figure you've read some of it already, but I should probably give you a head's up- the timeline's screwy for us, too. The last thing I remember from home is getting captured post-SRA, and Teddy was in the middle of another Skrull invasion. Kate, I'm not sure about. She hasn't talked about it.

[Which is... concerning, but he's happier not knowing his future anyway.]

[dickmoves]

[ ... He makes a mental note to talk to her, trying to keep pace with billy but inevitably keeping a few steps ahead. ]

I figured as much. It's better than you don't know anyway. I mean, timetravel is just a headache in itself without making it worse by worrying about paradoxes. Can you walk any faster? Come on, I'm starving!

[selfhelp]

[Impatient brother 8(]

...You know what? Come on, we'll go to the bakery. The food there's already made so we won't have to wait around.

[Considering how antsy Tommy is already, he can't see him wanting to sit around for stuff to be prepped. SWITCHING DIRECTIONS.]

And yeah, that's how I feel, too- about not knowing. It's why I haven't asked. I don't want to start any weird paradoxes.

[dickmoves]

[ Thank God. ]

So I shouldn't tell you the spoilers for the last episode of that show with all the naked chicks you watch is what you're saying. It was a good one.

[selfhelp]

[All the naked ch-]

Please. You realize I've read all the books anyway, right? I could probably spoil you.

[dickmoves]

I just watch it for the eye candy, bro. Sorry.

[selfhelp]

No one watches Game of Thrones just for the eye candy.

[HE AIN'T BUYING IT IT'S TOO GOOD]

[dickmoves]

Look, if I wanted to watch your nerd garbage I'd watch Lord of the Hogwarts or something.

[selfhelp]

[Snort. Now he's just doing it on purpose.]

Does it count as a nerdy show when it's getting so mainstream, though? I mean, these days it's actually pretty cool to be a nerd.

[dickmoves]

No, it's not.

[selfhelp]

J.K. Rowling's 400-million-sales of books about kid wizards say otherwise.

[dickmoves]

[ SHRUGGING OH SHIT LOOK AT ALL THAT BREAD LETS HAVE ALL THAT BREAD ]

[selfhelp]

[FINE HAVE SOME BREAD BUT YOU KNOW HE'S RIGHT]

[dickmoves]

[ GROM NOM NOM NOM NOM NOM NOM NOM NOM NOM

pause breathe

NOM NOM NOM NOM NOM NOM NOM HOW ABOUT SOME MUFFINS TOO YEAH MUFFINS ARE FUCKING AWESOME THEY'RE AS AWESOME AS BILLY IS WRONG. ]

[selfhelp]

[Watching a speedster eat is the most hideous thing in the world, wow. Billy's just going to focus on his journal for now. (How does he even swallow that fast...)]

Just so you know? You've been here before. So some people might recognize you, even if you don't remember it.

[dickmoves]

[ SWALLOWING A HUGE MOUTHFUL. ]

Yeah, I talked to Ironman and his wife or whatever the deal there is - is that a real thing? I have a hard time believing that's a real thing. Anyway, she knew me.

[selfhelp]

Kind of real, yeah. I mean, they're engaged. Crazy, isn't it?

[dickmoves]

More like a cry for help.

[selfhelp]

Hey, I'll take this version of Tony over the one we've got back home.

[This Tony doesn't put teenagers in space jail with no trial or term. Or let people get experimented on and tortured just because it isn't illegal.]

[dickmoves]

Give it time. I bet he's just as much of an ass.

[selfhelp]

I've been around him for a year and a half now. Trust me, he's not that bad.

[No way he'd have hung around as much if he was.]

[dickmoves]

Yeah, yeah. Are you going to eat anything?

[selfhelp]

I already had lunch. Speaking of which, there's room in the apartment for you, if you're interested. Well- technically it's next door, but the units are attached.

[He's hesitant but hopeful; it's where Tommy lived last time, and it's currently unoccupied. Maybe Tommy'll still be willing to stay close.]
