So. The time stone reacted to my other self showing up. Meeting your other self inadvertently? Not merely a trope. It really is a bad idea.

Your calendars and date settings aren't wrong. It was 2019. It really is four years in the future and it really is 2023 now.

Sorry.

	Yes and no. Sensing time moving was disconcerting but I have a handle on it, Wanda. I can't seem to find the right spell to help you yet. I'm still working on it. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Those of us who were snapped and then unsnapped, at least we sort of know what it's like to jump ahead suddenly. It's odd, but we'll adjust. It's okay. Are you sure I can't do anything, or will that anger the...presence? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	It was an unexpected mistake. I don't think I can rewind everything that far without seriously compromising the stability of this timeline. Has the presence been angered lately? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	You definitely shouldn't attempt it, then, especially if it's extremely dangerous. And I wouldn't want anything to happen to you. No. I feel fine, like I'm not even tainted at all. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I don't think I can. The stone doesn't seem to want to reverse it, even when I tried to take us back one minute in time to test it. It's not budging. No symptoms of harboring a dark force within you? That's odd. Usually when it's known, it tends to want to act out as a show of force that it shouldn't be meddled with.

	Then it's best not to force it. I'm not sure what those symptoms would be? And I think being tossed into a wall when you tried to remove it is one show of acting out. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

I didn't after that. I went to Kamar-taj to consult. Nothing new to report there, and while they're aware of the problem, they keep to themselves. I've been advised not to meddle further and, of course, not to open the stone again. ~~I wanted to help you but~~

The wall, yes. That's proof it's there, but usually when it's inhabiting a person there's other symptoms and manifestations.

Speaking in dead languages, nightmares, doing things against your will, sleep disturbances, bouts of anger, feeling ill or tired (particularly when a demon is trying to weaken the host further). None of these have been happening?

	Why did you open it in the first place? I am not judging, just curious. Well. I've been a little tired lately, and nauseated. But Vision got me some ginger chews and they help so it's not been unmanageable. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Let's leave it at curiosity. I think that's the safest label to apply here. Uh, that qualifies. I'd like you to contact Dr. Palmer for a checkup at the New Avengers Tower, if you haven't gone in for a physical already. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Alright, then. Curiosity. It killed the cat, as they say? ~~Oh--~~ I will contact her. I have not gone in for a physical, I just. I know she's not like HYDRA doctors but they are really all I have known. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Several cats are probably dead by now.

I think ruling out any physical maladies is a good idea. Dr. Palmer is familiar dealing with traumatized patients, having worked in the emergency room. You can see Dr. Banner too, if you want. But I know Christine will keep things confidential about the demonic factor if I talk to her first, and I can wait outside with Vision if it will make you feel any better.

	I like Christine, I am fine with seeing her. But you and Vision waiting outside would be nice, if you wouldn't mind. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	private doctor__strange 2019-06-18 01:11 am UTC (link)
	I don't mind. Thank you, Wanda. I'll mention it to Dr. Palmer and tell her to keep it quiet. In the meantime, I know there's a solution out there. I just need to find it. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	private witchiest 2019-06-18 01:14 am UTC (link)
	Mulțumesc, Stephen. I know you will. I appreciate you looking out for me. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	private doctor__strange 2019-06-18 01:16 am UTC (link)
	You're welcome. I'll always try to help you, whenever you need it. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	private doctor__strange 2019-06-18 02:28 am UTC (link)
	I've talked to Dr. Palmer and she's aware of the situation. She'll be gentle. She wants me to tell you to make sure you're hydrated before the appointment for samples. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	private witchiest 2019-06-18 02:05 pm UTC (link)
	I will be sure to drink enough water beforehand, I promise. Thank you for setting this up. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	You're a good friend, Wanda. Whatever I can do to help you, I'm going to help set it up. (Reply to this) (Parent)
