[a tall man in steel-colored body armor with yellow trim is currently very engaged with perusing the brochures at the information kiosk, a holographic version hovering at a comfortable height for him to read. after a moment, he waves a hand to dismiss the brochure, but underneath that helmet, he's blinking, unsure if someone is just pulling his

[Jade approaches with intrigue and barely catches the last part of the man's grumbling.]

They didn't even leave an away message?

[vengefulagent]

Away message? [the term is archaic to him, but he still gets it] They shouldn't be away at all. What if someone was really in trouble?

[spacewich]

[Thoughtful.] Oh, hmmm... I can see how that would be a problem. Since you were calling them just now, does that mean you're in trouble?

[vengefulagent]

[shakes his head] No, not exactly. Unsure about how to get back, yes, but that's not really trouble. Just more...annoying.

I'm Agent Washington. What's your name?

[spacewich]

I'm Jade Harley! [Her smile is silly and bucktoothed.]

And you're on the astral plane. If you want to get back home, all you have to do is think about it. It's the same thing if you ever want to get back here!

[vengefulagent]

[a faint smile graces his lips, but unfortunately, it's obscured by his helmet.]

Wait, it's that simple? [short pause] You're not trying to pull my leg are you, Jade?

[spacewich]

[She shakes her head.] No, I'm not trying to pull your leg! Going back and forth between here and home should come naturally, and it's really that simple.

The astral plane is like a hub between different worlds and universes. There are people from all different sorts of places, and there might even be different versions of people you know! [To her, that seems... exciting!!!!! :)]

[vengefulagent]

Huh, okay. So, I just have to think about home and--[and he drops from the Plane. but! he's back a moment later and looks around hastily] Whoa! [focuses his attention back on Jade] I can't believe it was that easy! I don't...even know how that is physically possible, but there it is.

[starts to rub the back of his helmeted head] Geez, instant transportation between two places and a multiverse hub... [he wonders if there's a different version of South that isn't...well, like her, or one of Maine who can't shut up]
