So, if someone could explain exactly what's going on, that'd be swell. I mean this is obviously not Prague or Mystic Falls and I'm pretty sure I'm not being held prisoner, so what's the deal? As nice as this apartment is, I really can't afford to hang around one place for too long. And is that a Mogwai? Okay, did someone drug me or something? Someone had better start talking.

Oh-kay. This isn't my Stark phone. Also, why isn't Leah on my contact list? Oh, obviously the lack of perks with a magical new phone from nowhere are at work here. Stop laughing, Ikol.

Can I at least surf the internet on this thing? Reddit is way too entertaining to let go, and I don't have much to do on Asgard. Not like they'll be giving me a job anytime soon. Or not!soon. Um...

Oh! It's on, how weird is that? That's very much with the bad, and I'm not even sure who --

It's really weird, walking by my studio, which is still a salon. It's only been a few days, but I already miss my studio. I went in today and kind of just wandered around and I think the manager thought I was crazy. If I'd told her that in the future her salon was an art studio, she'd really think I was crazy. At least younger me doesn't have to wait too much longer for it to close down.

I'm glad that Escher still recognizes me though. I haven't changed that much over the last couple of years, so I don't think he realizes anything is out of the ordinary.

The weirdest thing I've noticed though is that younger me has a painting hanging up that's clearly my style, but I know he wouldn't have done something like that yet. The date on it is November, but there's a future date next to my name. So, that leads me to assume that this has happened before, but a me from even further in the future was here before. I really shouldn't be surprised, considering everything that's happened here.
