	Strange is an understatement,Steve. I do not even know where to begin here. How will I be able to tell? I do not want to get you two mixed up. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	We're um, from different times. He, the other me, is from just a little while after the fair, I'm from a while after that...a lot happened in between. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I should not be surprised that something like this is able to happen here. I've only just got here and am already so overwhelmed. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	It'll be alright, you just gotta find a place to stay and things will calm down, sort of. Usually there's power but it's been out for a little while, people are working on it. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Hansel came to my rescue and is letting me use his bed for the night. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	That's real good of him, I'm glad you have a place for tonight. Let me know if you need anything okay? I'll so what I can. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	lillianmayfield 2013-05-26 04:46 am UTC (link)
	It was, he is the perfect gentleman. Thank you Steve, that is very nice of you. I will let you know when I pick my apartment out. Maybe you and Steven can come by? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	captain_srogers 2013-05-26 04:57 am UTC (link)
	Sure Lil, that'd be great. And you oughta meet Peggy, I'm sure she'd be glad to see another gal from your time. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	lillianmayfield 2013-05-26 05:05 am UTC (link)
	She should come too! I will try to get some order to my place so I can be a good hostess. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Don't worry 'bout that too much, things are pretty simple around here. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	lillianmayfield 2013-05-26 05:22 am UTC (link)
	Things are so different here from back home. But I will take your advice. Thank you Steve. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	captain_srogers 2013-05-26 05:34 am UTC (link)
	Well um, most people consider this to be 2013. Things are, very different, yes. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	lillianmayfield 2013-05-26 05:39 am UTC (link)
	.....2013? That...that's impossible! (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	captain_srogers 2013-05-26 05:46 am UTC (link)
	I know it seems it but it's really not. That's uh...that's ~~where~~ when I came from. It seems to be when most of the people who've been here longest were taken from. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	lillianmayfield 2013-05-26 06:10 am UTC (link)
	You are from 2013? I think I missed a big chunk of history, actually I know I have. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	captain_srogers 2013-05-26 06:16 am UTC (link)
	Yeah, it's a long story but, uh, I know that feeling. But there are people here too from times long before the 40's too. It's all a little confusing. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	lillianmayfield 2013-05-26 06:25 am UTC (link)
	Long before the 40's? There has to be a reason why we are all here. If we can, maybe we can find a way back. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Yes, I don't know how long exactly but they've said they never had electricity and lived in castles, they talk and dress very differently as well. No one has been able to figure out why or how we're here.
They've been trying. That's why there's no power. Tony Stark though he knew a way, he had some machine he thought could do it but it didn't work, backfired and caused all of this. They've said that anytime anyone tries something like this happens. But...I don't think I want to go back

	Steven told me about him. He is Howard's son? He must be able to get the power back on if he is. I miss my family, Steve. Even though it feels like I just saw them. I don't know if I can handle not seeing them again. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

He's even more brilliant than Howard and has better technology to work with and he's been here longer than almost anyone but he hasn't been able to figure it out yet.

I'm sorry Lil, I know you must. But it'll be alright, it's not so bad here and sometimes people go away, they disappear as suddenly as they got here, and a lot of people think they go back to the moment they were taken. So you might still see them, and they won't even have known you were gone. I wish there was more I could do.

	Well if you are right then he should have it fixed soon. Howard was just incredible, I have to meet Tony. Like some sort of time limit? Like time runs out and we go back to our life before? That seems cruel. They make us start up a new life and then they take it away? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

I don't know Lillian, he's been here a long time, there are others here with magic or who are brilliant too. I just..don't know.

Maybe? It is definitely cruel, to them and the people they leave behind, most of the time they don't want to talk about it so I don't know a whole lot. But there are some who have been here a lot longer than some who've disappeared, it doesn't really make a lot of sense. All I know is that there are some people here who I knew back home, I talked to them only a few days before I showed up here, but when I arrived they said they'd been here months. So either it sends people back to where they were taken or it makes...copies to drop here.
I don't know.

	I'm sorry I am asking so many questions. I want to make sure I have all the facts. But I'm starting to think there aren't a lot of facts. So the time is not the same. So if we do go back it will probably just seem like it was yesterday. That is really interesting. It gives me something to think about. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	captain_srogers 2013-05-26 07:53 pm UTC (link)
	It's alright, we all have a lot of questions at first. But there really aren't many answers yet. That's one of the ideas, there are a lot floating around but whenever someone who's disappeared shows up again they don't remember being here before so there's no way to know for sure.

	I found a place to stay. Steven is going to talk to his friend.He has to talk to her first and then I will surely have a place. That is so strange, Steve. Everyone here remembers them but they don't remember being here before? (Reply to this) (Parent)
