Most of you know I've been researching our, uh, situation - our sudden shift in locales, actually. I'll start this off by saying that I come from working for a bureaucratic organization called the Time Variance Authority (TVA) - it exists out of any concepts of time or space and was created to preserve what was formerly the Sacred Timeline, which is the timeline most of you were pulled here to this pocket universe from. Everything on that timeline was written out already, by an entity called He Who Remains - omnipotent, knows everything even down to the very last letter of the last sentence uttered by you before you turned around and found yourselves here. Anything that wasn't written and happened to branch off (sometimes that happens) was 'pruned' - taken care of in a way I won't go into, but it wasn't pleasant and for eons he had brainwashed plenty of people pulled from their own timelines to do that work for him.

He Who Remains shouldn't remain any longer - he's dead. Except our trip to the TVA showed us that - he probably isn't.

He was responsible for creating the TVA and for creating this pocket dimension too. Studying the frequencies emitted by our universe, its various readings, have shown us that there's no danger of it branching - it's not going to go into red line territory like other timelines would have, the ones that needed pruning. However, the activity within shows that we're all kind of being moved around like chess pieces, and the universe is one big game board. I think Tony called it a video game - it's kind of like that.

As someone who was recently hit with a lot of hard truths and a lot of uncertainty about what to do with them, I realize that all of this may be difficult to handle. But I'm here to answer any questions, or go over any of the output from our trip to the TVA. I've got the files saved on my TemPad and can pull them up for any interested parties. But I just wanted to be truthful about everything, because I know we were all confused and confusion often leads to some bad stuff sometimes. Hopefully this will cut it off at the pass.

What's that mean? He's dead, but he isn't?

So he's the one who created this place and dragged us all here?

You know how you watch a horror movie or something, and the bad guy dies but then pops back up? It's kinda like that.

And yes. I'm thinking so.

...I hate horror movies. This sounds like bad news.

I thought you liked them a little.

But yeah, it's not great. I just wanted to tell people though. Since not having the truth is also kind of bad news.

We have a love/hate relationship.

Yeah, I can see how the truth here would be important.

You're safely back from the TVA, then?

Gotcha. A complicated affair indeed.

I'm back, yeah. It was a pretty short trip but one chock-full of information. Then I just got to be the bearer of bad news.

A wise person told me recently that life is full of complicated relationships. But we can always dream about the uncomplicated ones.

Information is good, even if bad news is... well, bad. I'm glad you're back safe and sound, though.

That was before you took your top off, I don't remember much prior to that-- Oh, right. I think I did hear that someplace before. Someone should put it on a fortune cookie.

Thanks, I'm glad to be back. I'll probably hop to the TVA again at some point, just not for a little while.

You're in the right town to find a fortune cookie factory.

And now you have that option. Does that device let you go anywhere in space and time? Like your own, personal TARDIS?

Maybe that's my true calling after all.

In theory, yes, it does. Anywhere in space and time. But I haven't tried it with the mechanics of this universe yet - maybe opening a Timedoor just leads to the Tower and there's no getting around that.

I'm glad I was able to help you come to that conclusion.

Give it a go, then. Might as well try it out and see what happens, right?

You're plenty helpful in many ways.

Of course. No pain, no gain. If it works I'll have an easy way to travel - if not, well. Guess the worst that could happen is I disintegrate.

You're welcome. ;)

...is disintegrating a possibility? If so, don't take that risk. I'd rather have you forced into tedious modes of travel (like the rest of us schmucks) than disintegrated.

No, I'm just teasing. I'll be okay, I promise. There may be some limits to traveling through time here but I'll just have to figure out what they are.

Be careful. I much prefer you in one piece.

The feeling's mutual. How was Madripoor, by the way?

Still there. I should be home on Friday. Maybe Saturday.

It's more of a mess than I remembered.

More crime, that sort of thing? Richer getting richer, poorer getting poorer?

You guessed it.

Somehow I have more clients than I remember.

That's okay, Sharon.

If you want to talk about it when you get back I'm here. I don't even have to offer advice because I'm not sure I have any, but - sometimes that's not even necessary.

You're gonna make me soft, Mobius. I've never had anyone to talk at about all of this before.
