[Action / Voice] evening + morning
[...This doesn't look like Prison #42. At least, not as he recalls it. Billy pushes himself upright in the grass, squinting in the early evening light, and absently lifts a shaking hand to his ears. There's no device there, nothing to prevent him from casting any spells... a fact he proves to himself with a wave of his hand, conjouring up a shirt to go with the unfamiliar white pants he finds himself in. What's all this about, exactly? Some new trick that Stark and Richards came up with to keep their prisoners placated? Or has he - against all odds - been freed and dumped somewhere in the wild?
What've you gotten yourself into now, Kaplan?
Cautiously he lets his magic take him up to the tree line, resting on a high branch to get a better look around. Up ahead, not far in the distance, he can see a village, but it's so small and old-fashioned that he doesn't recognize it at all. Wherever he is, it's pretty remote.
Well, whatever. What does location matter to a witch who can teleport? His priority is finding Cap and the rest of the Young Avengers. Teddy's probably flipping out right about now. Dropping back into a crouch, he sits himself down on the branch, cross-legged, and lifts his hands again, letting the glow return to them, and begins chanting under his breath-]
"IwanttobeinNewYorkIwanttobeinNewYork..."
[Yeah, he's pretty noticeable like that. Especially since he'll be there until he's discovered, pointedly not teleporting to New York. Awkward.]
[In the morning, however, things are a bit different- he's settled (sort of), he's rested (a bit), he's informed (just enough). And he's sorted out how to use the journal. Thus, around mid-afternoon, he sends out a message:]
Okay, this is weird, but... let's give it a try. Hey, uh, whoever's listening out there. I've heard there are people from all over the galaxy, and lots from Earth, especially. That's where I'm from, too. I was wondering, though- are there people living here who'd be considered "super heroes"? Here or on your own world, I mean. I'm actually-
[Actually... he really shouldn't just announce it. What if someone from the Initiative is here and remembers him when they get back to Earth? Even a slim chance isn't worth the risk.]
...I'm actually a huge fan of the superheroes from Earth! You know, heroes like Captain America, Iron Man, Spider-man... I've been a fan since I was a kid. Though I guess it's not unusual for someone from New York. There's a ton of superheroes living in the city these days.
Sorry for rambling so much. To be honest, I'm just nervous... I've never been to another world before.
[....]
Teddy? You here?
[ooc: first dibs to action (chronologically) goes to Buffy, otherwise he is free to be met wherever/whenever. Also if you could have a look at his permissions post I would be much obliged!]

Let's do a little exploratory questioning.]
We had the Cap'n here once, but he went home a few months ago.
[That drawl. That hair. WHO COULD IT BE?]
[ voice ]
my
god
Who else could it be? But- wait, she's... young. Way too young. Like his age young.
Holy crap.
FOCUS, KAPLAN, FOCUS...]
...Cap... Captain America was here too?
[Don't stare, don't stare, don't stare dammit he is totally staring.]

He's eating a bag of chips as he's listening to all this crap Billy is saying. He hadn't PLANNED on replying to his post, but his giant thumb or something must have slipped somewhere because you're greeted with the loud crunch of chips.]

A fan of Iron Man, you say? Well, kiddo, this is indeed your lucky day, then. [Even if...must be another universe. Again. There sure isn't any Spider-man in his world, and Captain America was long gone.]

SHUTTING THE JOURNAL RIGHT FREAKING NOW]
voice;
Okay, hang on. Just breathe.
That wasn't a response of a man systematically hunting down and locking up all the rogue superheroes. That was the response of a man fully prepared to meet a fanboy.
No aggression. And, as Billy hesitantly opens the journal again to get a better look... no recognition. That is undeniably Tony Stark, but... not the same Tony Stark.
This might be okay. Hesitantly, he responds.]
...Mr. Stark?

All the same. It's enough to make him respond.]
I've heard of Spider-Man. [He doesn't seem too impressed. But then, the papers are never too flattering about the webslinger.]

being that he was almost murdered, but hey. Always nice to try again.... What is it with him and finding people in trees. Sheesh.
He puts a hand to his mouth and calls up:]
I don't think that'll get you home, compadre.
[action]
The blue glow around his hands immediately cuts off as Billy is rather abruptly snapped out of his trance, eyes widening. Hastily he catches himself before he falls out of the tree. That? Would have been really embarrassing.
Once he has his balance back, he peers over the edge of the branch, squinting in the dark.]
...What, and you've tried it?
[It's not going to help him save face, but it's a start.]

[The question is asked in a husky but oddly crisp tone without preamble--a brilliant initial transmission on part of the beastman. After losing enough time to be granted wings and be dumped in a strange forest on a very rainy day, Viral was intent on laying low until he figured the situation out. This boy who mentioned Earth, the name of his own world, seemed to be the most discreet person to ask.
If Billy cared enough, he would notice two things; the beastman is outside in the rain, and is very wet and muddy.]
[voice]
Well, whatever, questions come first. Maybe some people around here are just that weird.]
Superheroes are people with special gifts or abilities or training- who can fight the sort of enemy that would be unbeatable to normal people.
