I fear this will put an abrupt end to my perfect record.

	I fear you might be right on this one. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	I suppose nearly five years of perfect attendance at the NYPD was unheard of, anyways. Robert Barone. It's a pleasure to meet you. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Now, what would the NYPD be? Katherine Lokadóttir. The pleasure is all mine. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	The police department of the City of New York. I've worked there in some capacity since I was 21 years old. I'm currently a Sargent. Are you not from America? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	A New York police officer, how interesting. What's that like? I'm from here. From five hundred years in the future. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	It can be fun yet challenging. I once got gored by a bull. But I find it truely rewarding work. This must be disconcerting for you? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	daddyissues_ 2016-09-12 07:28 am UTC (link)
	A bull? How did that happen? And what do you find so rewarding about it if I may ask? Which part of it? Being from this place? Being from the future? Or someone who is not from here arriving here? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	sgtbarone 2016-09-12 01:16 pm UTC (link)
	My partner and I were breaking up an illegal rodeo in the Bronx...the bull was just defending its territory. Despite my bovine encounters, I find it rewarding because I enjoy helping my community. Making the world a better place. All of the above, I suppose? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	daddyissues_ 2016-09-12 05:33 pm UTC (link)
	How very noble of you. You are a knight in shining armour. Without the armour or the knighthood. It is not disconcerting, no. It is saddening to be apart from my friends but I have a good life here and I am used to strange things. Are you a vanilla human being? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	sgtbarone 2016-09-12 06:13 pm UTC (link)
	It would be nice, getting the attention I deserve. Thank you. Normally the attention I receive is through charming headlines at the newspaper my brother works for. None of you friends are here? That's terrible. How long have you been here? Vanilla? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	daddyissues_ 2016-09-12 06:20 pm UTC (link)
	What kind of attention do you think you deserve? I made new ones and I have my family. I've been in this time for almost two years now. I haven't realised it has been that long. Normal. No super powers. No magic. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	sgtbarone 2016-09-12 06:29 pm UTC (link)
	Positive attention. Back home, I'm a joke. That's nice, that you have your family. I just have Deb, but that might be an improvement. Two years??? That's such a long and yet short time. No, no magic. Are their magical people here? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	daddyissues_ 2016-09-12 06:36 pm UTC (link)
	Are they laughing at you? Yes, it is. I'm quite lucky. Two years is nothing, especially not if you consider that the alternative to that is death. Yes. Plenty. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	sgtbarone 2016-09-12 06:43 pm UTC (link)
	Yes...not to my face, but behind my back. You were dying back home? I didn't realize. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	daddyissues_ 2016-09-12 06:00 pm UTC (link)
	Why would they do that? No. It is my fault I am in this time. But it is the way to get away from this place. Well, you are currently talking to a Jedi and a sorceress. Only one of the people you talk to right now has a pure earthly descendants. I leave you to decide who is what. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	sgtbarone 2016-09-12 10:13 pm UTC (link)
	We have some...dysfunctional family dynamics. Oh, I don't want to die. The woman below you suggested I go to the Jedi temple. She must be the Jedi. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	daddyissues_ 2016-09-13 02:17 am UTC (link)
	Oh, I know all about those. What are yours like? Congratulations, you ate an normal person. You take everything very calmly. Have you been to similar places before this one? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Oh, let's see. My parents got married when they found out that my mother was pregnant with me, which leads itself to a lot of charming resentment from the two of them. Four years after I was born, they had Raymond, their baby boy. He can do no wrong in my mother's eyes, my father simply belittles us both. Raymond decided to repeat history as a senior in high school but that was alright because 'Raymond and Debra are giving us grandchildren, Robbie, all you're doing is becoming a cop'. It really wears on me sometimes. What are yours like?

That's a relief.

No, I haven't been to a similar place. I try to maintain my cool in potentially dangerous situations.

Sadly, I feel like I can relate. I did not grow up with my real parents, I'm only getting to know my real father now. But when I grew up I was often given the feeling that my opinion matters less worth than that of their real children. My real father is different, he lets me make up my own mind and does so many things simply because they make me happy and even though he finds the tasks beneath him.

I guess I have the duty to inform you that you have just stumbled into one ongoing potentially dangerous situation.

	Sadly, you are quite correct. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	blue_eyed_force 2016-09-12 06:48 am UTC (link)
	I usually am. What record were you trying to obtain? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I was hoping to continue my streak of perfect attendance on the force. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	blue_eyed_force 2016-09-12 06:29 pm UTC (link)
	The force? Are you force sensitive? You should visit the Jedi temple here. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	sgtbarone 2016-09-12 10:10 pm UTC (link)
	No, I'm not, sorry. I was on the police force back home. Jedi...like Star Wars? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	blue_eyed_force 2016-09-12 10:13 pm UTC (link)
	Oh. That is a different force. But in a way, you have chosen the light side then, yes? Yes, like Star Wars. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	sgtbarone 2016-09-12 10:14 pm UTC (link)
	Absolutely. I firmly believe in doing what is right by the law. Wow. That's...wow. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	blue_eyed_force 2016-09-12 10:18 pm UTC (link)
	I believe in doing what is right. Laws can be unjust. It really is. If you'd ever like to see the temple, I can give you a tour or a demonstration in use of the force. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	sgtbarone 2016-09-12 11:20 pm UTC (link)
	Perhaps some of them are, you are correct. I would be interested in that, if you don't mind. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	blue_eyed_force 2016-09-13 01:08 am UTC (link)
	I don't mind at all. Just let me know when you'd like to come over. I'm Sunila. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Lucky you. It seems like nothing I ever do is right where I come from. It's nice to meet you. Have you been here long? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	msanasteele 2016-09-13 11:53 am UTC (link)
	I'm sure that's not true. It's nice to meet you too. Yeah, I've been here for a while actually. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	msanasteele 2016-09-15 01:49 pm UTC (link)
	What does that mean? Oh this place can get crazy at times. But, I actually like it here. Not much to do, but you make your own fun. The beach is amazing, I go there just to relax at times. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
