Wow. This place exploded. Hi to all the new folks. I'm Kat.

I was planning a BBQ for everyone around. It's happening on Thursday evening. Up in the park of the middle wheel. Please come along.

Food crew, does that suit you?

JR, look at that shiny old face! Welcome back to being normal.

Hi, Mr. Sunglasses. That's a cool look, man!

It adds to my air of casual mystique.

My name's Miguel.

You have drawn me in. I'm a sucker for casual mystique.

Nice to meet you, Miguel. Where are you from?

Nueva York, in 2099. You?

Nueva York as in New York? I was born in the 26th century on the island. Have people told you about that place yet?

Yeah, that's what it used to be called.

I've been told some things about the island, yeah, but nothing about the 26th century.

I've been there once. But way before your time! What kind of world are you are from?

The 26th century sounds more exciting than it was. Believe me. We were just a big village. But I've seen worlds which were quite exciting.

A normal world? Normal to me, anyway.

26th century and everyone's gone back to villages? I'd have thought stations like this would have been more than common-place.

I recognise my question was not well-phrased. Let me boil it down a bit more. Did you have magic in your world? Jedis? Superheroes? Was everyone human who was part of civilisation?

Underwhelming, isn't it? There wasn't enough space and people for a station like this. We couldn't really leave the damn place, could only fly up so high too.

Got it. No magic, or Jedi. Just a lot of science. Superheroes all died out in the Catastrophe, but there are new ones starting to appear again. There's a guy calling himself the Punisher, a Spiderman, some guy called Ravage and a few others. It's got the Thorites all up in a frenzy, they're claiming it means the Aesir are coming back for real this time.

The Punisher, huh? Now he sounds like someone I want to have brunch with. What's his jam?

Thorites sounds almost as ridiculous! Are the Thor's fangirls and -boys? And who of the Aesir are kicking around in your time?

You've got any super powers of your own? You know with all the normal people they are in a world, this place always seems to pick the ones with super powers.

He punishes the bad guys. Hence, Punisher.

A lot of people worship Thor, but yeah, you get the odd nuts who dress up like Thor and Heimdall and Baldur. There are no Aesir in my time. Like I said, the Catastrophe killed all the heroes. There were a couple of people who got turned into fake Aesir, though. "Thor" was a real shocking idiot.

Oh yeah, sure. I already told you about my casual mystique, didn't I?

Wow, how creative!

All heroes, not every Aesir is a hero. So what makes them think they are coming back?

That is certainly a power. A quite impressive one, I might add. I bet it's way better than that of this punisher guy.

It's their religion, so I guess it's one of the core tenets? I don't really know, I'm not a Thorite. A lot of them live in Downtown, so I think perhaps it's how they get their escapism. Downtown might be terrible, but Thor's gonna come back and save us all, that sort of thing.

The Punisher guy is both intense and not very mysterious, so he fails completely at casual mystique.

What about you? Got any superpowers?

They sound like an odd bunch. What's so terrible about Downtown? Or is that just their opinion and not yours?

Now he should take lessons from you.

I'm a human hybrid. I assume you are a human? I can do what some of my ancestral races can do but not all. Like, animals seem to listen to me fairly well. Not as cool as having casual mystique but it's a start.

Downtown's where you live if you're poor. The Public Eye doesn't extend down there, so it's very dangerous and there's lots of different gangs fighting for territory.

Do you mind if I ask what your ancestral races are?

Is that where you lived as well?

I don't know all of them sadly but there is some human, fae, dragon, frost giant and probably other things in there. My mother was born on the island just like me and island heritage can be incredibly strange. I remember a guy which lived in our street when I grew up he was a turtle, ogre, pixie mix. It gave me nightmares in my puberty. Like, how does that even work?

No. I live Uptown.

Frost giant? I am a geneticist and I am struggling to see how that works.

Lucky you I guess. What's life like Uptown?

I've only just met you but you don't want to maybe help me figure out what else is part of my heritage? That would be amazing. I'd owe you.

It has its perks, I guess.

Yes. Yes, I would like to do that. I'm going to guess you have access to labs of some sort?

Wonderful! Thank you! There are labs here but I'm really the wrong person to ask about them. My knowledge about science goes as far as I know that DNA exists. But there are a few science-y figures.

Marta and Tom are probably the best to ask. Actually, I haven't heard of Tom yet. Marta is the one who posted after me.

Marta looks like she's only just awake after months of sleeping? Which technically is a coma, I'm just saying, but yeah. I don't know if she'd know the layout of this place?

I'll just put a question up on the net and see who answers.

That's probably your best bet.
