[SO MUCH GRINNING] Superman!

[supermanliness]

[HAVE ONE RIGHT BACK.] Good afternoon, Cap. Nice city you've got here.

[mightymortal]

Yeah, it's pretty neat. [hhhhhh] ... Most days. How are you? It's been awhile!

[supermanliness]

[DISTINCTION NOTED. B(]

I'm doing pretty well, I guess, for someone who's just showed up in another dimension. That's always a little jarring. You've been well, I hope?

[mightymortal]

That's good! Do you need anything? It seems like you've got most things figured out already...

[Thoughtful pause!] I've been pretty great, here. Miss Zatanna let me stay with her and Wonder Woman, and there's always something to do.

[supermanliness]

Not at the moment, but I'll be sure to tell you if that changes. To be honest, it's pretty relieving to know there's people already here that I can count on.

That sounds like quite a household.

[mightymortal]

There are plenty of Leaguers here. And Tom! So the JSA, too.

[Cap isn't going to invite Supes to stay at a place that isn't his, but he wants to so bad... B(] Yeah, even more when Barry was here, but he just got Ported back out.

[supermanliness]

Did he? [THAT SUPERSMILE IS FADING INTO... disappointment. :( aww he'd thought Barry was still here.]

I'm sorry to hear it. It would've been nice to see him here. [smile is inching back into place...] But at least I've got plenty of Leaguers and some of the JSA, apparently. Thanks for letting me know.

[mightymortal]

[hopefully:] He might come back. It happens all the time, I've heard. [then, a tad more somberly] A whole lot of cities are missing. There's no Metropolis, here. [:C :C :C Or Fawcett City...] And some countries are gone, too.

[supermanliness]

A game of hoping and waiting, then. It could be worse.

I did notice that. No Keystone, Gotham, or Fawcett, either. [a thoughtful pause] Which countries?

[mightymortal]

Umm... according to all the maps I've seen, we're missing Kahndaq, Bialya, Markovia, Umec, Pokolistan, Qurac, Santa Prisca and Syraq.

[supermanliness]

...Strange choices. But that's good to know, thank you.

[mightymortal]

No problem, Superman. If you're interested, I also figured out where the best hot dog place in the City is; it isn't as important, but I find the information pretty useful, anyway...

[supermanliness]

I'm definitely interested. I was worried rediscovering all the best places like that was going to be quite a trial-and-error process.
