[Ten minutes, and it wasn't hard to find the location. Felt nice to have full use of her abilities again too, including limited teleportation. She arrived first, taking a look around the buildings and surrounding area as much as she could, pondering defenses and what she might be able to add to it. Good use of time, while waiting for Bucky.]

[Bucky's there in about fifteen. It took a few minutes longer to get out of town and he took the longer, more subtle path to the hideout. Billy's invisible alarm system flashes briefly blue as he passes into the twenty foot radius, but falls away into nothing again as it recognizes him. Handy system, really. He heads right inside, figuring Raven will follow.]

You want some tea or coffee? There was some in the load of supplies Alfred brought by. Somehow he found a spaceship. Not that I'm complaining, takes people off pack-mule duty.

[Rae'll definitely follow; she's chill and fairly calm, really. So far anyways.]

No, thank you though. A spaceship? Really? Huhn...

Yeah, a spaceship. Bit of a shock when he pulled up in it. [He shakes his head, moves to pour himself a cup of coffee from the pot. Old fashioned tin mugs, fun fun.]

Right. De-briefing. Where to start... We've gotten several new capes in the last couple of batches. Vision and... my old war-time partner, Steve Rogers, from my world. Steve is the first Captain America, and this one's from 1945. He doesn't remember anything after that.

Who's Vision? And I'm...guessing Steve is almost like Bruce is, to Dick and Tim and Damian, huh? So how are we going to differentiate between you two captains when in costume?

I...died, during the week Val was giving us orders. Wasn't pleasant, and I came back during the week with the zombies. Last week...I was from a completely different universe, although one of the other residents here is normally from there. It was kind of odd, being a new person--my memories are getting fuzzier every day, but...I do remember it. It was like I was 'me', but not me.

Who else, among the 'capes'?

A synthezoid. Synthetic man, sort of an android with emotions. You can't miss him if you see him. You've met the twins, Wiccan and Speed? He's their father. [Long story that he doesn't really know the extent of.] ...Yeah, you could say that. Steve is more like my brother and my best friend though. You won't have to worry about differentiating, I'm not picking the shield up again now that he's here.

[He cringes sympathetically. Dying, zombies, AND then memories being messed with somehow...] Not the best few weeks, those, that's for sure.

I think besides the ones I've mentioned, the rest are from Dick's universe. I'm not even sure I've met with all of them, honestly I'm a little worried that whoever's in charge of picking the new batches has... noticed us like this, and then to send more...

It might be worth asking some of the older residents if there are trends. Like noticing when there was an off-week, but no new arrivals, before? I'll have to ask Dick, since...well, he's from a similar enough universe to my own.

[There's a faint sheepish shrug there.]

I work with a version of him that's younger, for example.

I think most trends have already been documented. From what I can tell, several of the changes have been recent.

Yes. I know you're from an off-shoot timeline of his universe. [He shakes his head slightly.] I'll get the information myself. Dick and Power Girl and I are keeping a mental roster.
