[The feed comes on abruptly and swings around--a glimpse of the baseball diamond is first--before settling on an unflattering closeup of a pretty blond that some of the Marvel folks might recognize as Karolina Dean. There's a groan, and the visuals go dark as they're covered by something but there's a thump and a disoriented voice

[Ditto the skrull thing. But still...]

[Also: Grandfather and grandsons share a pretty striking resemblance, although Magneto looks more like Tommy due to the shared hair color]

Are you all right?

[Magneto also gets treated to some failed shifting before Xavin responds. There's a mutter that sounds like "vaporized and put back together" mixed in with some Skrullos at first.]

Tell me-- Is this Earth?

[He winces a little - he caught a fair deal of that.]

It is. Just not ours.

[Xavin looks very upset, hir voice tight with budding panic]

If the Majesdanians discover I'm missing--

[Xavin tries to move, but sways instead, still quite out of it.]

[Damn, and he's stuck at Syke.]

Don't worry about that. Sit down. Take a couple breaths. As soon as you are able to walk - head for the dugout in the baseball field.

What's your name?

[Xavin looks like zie is about to argue but does sit, still obviously worried.]

Xavin. What did you mean, not ours?

Re: Video/filtered as well:

Xavin. Michael Xavier.

Alternate dimension. They won't notice you are missing at home, I promise.

[Xavin nods numbly, and turns a worried look on Magneto]

You're certain? If they realize I'm missing, they'll go back to try to take her.

Re: Video/filtered as well:

I'm certain. Those I've heard it from I trust. Right now, just focus on your safety.

Re: Video/filtered as well:

[Xavin frowns but doesn't object, focusing on flexing hir fingers and getting better control of hir movement.]

The dugout, you said?

Re: Video/filtered as well:

[makes_asteroids]

Yes, it's a safe place to recover until you can move to the tower apartments or arrange something more permanent.

Re: Video/filtered as well:

[boywillbegirl]

[That gets a grunt.]

How long do the side effects of... this last?

Re: Video/filtered as well:

[makes_asteroids]

The worst passes quickly.

I'm not sure how the Core effects a Skrull verse a human - the only other Skrull I've seen here...well...it's a bit complicated.

Re: Video/filtered as well:

[boywillbegirl]

[That catches Xavin's attention, but with more than a little concern]

There is another Skrull here?

Re: Video/filtered as well:

[makes_asteroids]

Yes. A young man. Theodore. Not going to be a problem, I trust?

Re: Video/filtered as well:

[boywillbegirl]

Theo--Dorrek?

[Xavin is relieved that it's not an enemy, happy to know that someone zie knows is here and concerned about them both being trapped.]

Dorrek is here? Is he well?
