Okay. What's going on here? My magic isn't working right. I have no idea where any of my team is. I have no idea where I am

PRIVATE (and placeholder because SLEEP)

[makes_asteroids]

WILLIAM! [That tone is so reminiscence of a parent finding a lost child, it's eerie.]

[Private]

[alwaysfindsyou]

... [Is a little surprised and also very wary now.] Magneto?

Re: [Private] (Voice, forgot to say)

[There is lot of background, noise - doctors being paged, several children crying, machines and so on that goes on for several minutes.]

You don't remember. [It's flat, not cold, but not really 'Magneto's' voice.]

In any event, unless he is asleep, Theodore should be answering this soon.

I...[hesitating]

I'd rather not be called Magneto here. Michael is the name people know me as.

[Voice - Private] =D

[alwaysfindsyou]

Remember what? [He's a little confused about the background noise. He's confused about everything, pretty much.]

Teddy's here? What about Tommy? [His voice very much has a 'you've better not have hurt them' warning edge.]

... Okay. [Still wary.] Where's 'here', exactly?

[ Charles curiously prods around telepathically in various heads until he extracts his answer.]

Oh you're his grandson. Hello William. My name is Charles. Your grandfather is posing as my cousin here, lest his old reputation catch up with him and set back the work he is trying to do here. Helpful things, you know. He's very active in this community.

[alwaysfindsyou]

... Charles as in... Charles Xavier?

Magneto's being helpful?

Re: voice; private

[goodshepherd_x]

Xavier, indeed. Your grandfather is going by Michael Xavier. My 'cousin.' The origins of the alias are a rather long story, really, but please try to go along with it. He is working as a doctor, here, among other things. I am rather proud.

[He pauses.]

I am not sure the events of the time you came from, but you have been sucked into a new reality, essentially. A concept you are probably familiar with. We all have to make the best of this new life we can, because it doesn't seem we'll be getting home anytime soon.

Do you have someone able to pick you up right now?

voice; private

[alwaysfindsyou]

He's one of the good guys? You're sure?

... I guess that would explain why I can't teleport back to New York. Does New York even exist here?

I don't think so but I can take care of myself. No big deal. I'll figure something out.

[Sup, this one sounds about 10 years old.]

--What's a 'Magneto'?

voice;

[alwaysfindsyou]

[Is reminded of his little brothers for a moment.] Uuuh, nothing important. Just a made-up word. [Isn't that true.]

voice;

[tiny_schemer]

Are you sure it's not some kinda monster? It sounds scary!

Actually there were lots of words in there I didn't know... what's a Wiccan?

voice;

[alwaysfindsyou]

No, it's not a monster. [At least not anymore?]

Wiccan's just my codename.

[video/filtered]

[omnilinguist]

It's good to see you again, Billy, even if you don't remember.

[Sorry, man. Filters are pretty worthless in Doug's case.]

My name is Doug Ramsey, or Cypher. I'm a member of the X-Men.

[video/filtered]

[alwaysfindsyou]

Oh. Hey. Nice to meet you. [Always good to have fellow good people with powers around.]

[video/filtered]

[omnilinguist]

Likewise.

I'm sure you've noticed by now how pleased everyone else is to see you. Don't be too intimidated.

[video/filtered]

[alwaysfindsyou]

[Laughs a bit] Yeah, it's a little weird, not remembering and having people know me...

[Video/PRIVATE]

[thelittlestbub]

Billy! [A big grin.]

Dude, welcome back. Your granddad's gonna be glad to see you. So am I for that matter.

Here, lemme give you directions to our place. Teddy's staying with us, and so is Michael and a few others. Plus, totally better than the Towers. [Directions!]

[Video/PRIVATE]

[alwaysfindsyou]

[Teddy is living at the same place Magneto is, what.]

[You look familiar.] Nice to be back, I guess? [Is not really sure about all this... but if Professor X is here... He's one of the good guys so he can trust him, right? And if Teddy's here too...] Alright. On my way.

[Video/PRIVATE]

[thelittlestbub]

Yeah, I know, you're probably not the one that was here before, but honestly, since when do alternate dimensions care for timelines?

The name's Jubilee.

[Video/PRIVATE]

[alwaysfindsyou]

I don't remember being here before so probably not.

... Oh. You were with the X-Men, right?
