Netpost: Moon Knight
I have a hypothesis about something. I don't know how plausible or batshit it might be, but I'm going to suggest it anyhow. You're being a nerd I know there's other stuff going on, and this is nothing to do with Thanos's stones or the red portals or Time-skipping, so I'm sorry about that. I just. It might be important? I don't know.

I don't know.



I don't think I'm where I'm supposed to be. I don't just mean arriving through the portal or anything like that, it's something different. I'm not aware of going through a portal or a magic doorway that just appeared or anything like that, but this is not where I was. I'm basing this on a number of observations, some of which are listed below.

My room in the Wakandan Consulate is in the wrong place. I didn't know why I'm now one room over from where I usually am, but I didn't want to make a fuss. And my stuff isn't there. My compass. The shirt you got for me.

My jobs don't exist here. And people were surprised by what I'd said I did - I'm not a Marine or a security person, I'm an Egyptologist. I've worked at Cambridge University for years, I got my degree and my Masters and my Doctorate there, I couldn't have been a Marine or anything like that. I'm Dr. Steven Grant, I don't have a military rank. But there's no mention of me being in the faculty on the website. My work email doesn't work. Don't forget my job And the job I had here, in the outdoors shop, which now doesn't exist. The job, I mean. The shop still very much exists.

My books that showed up. The books have my name in them, and the notes and post-its that are all through them are in my handwriting, but they're not my copies. They're almost all older, second-hand editions. The notes are my work, but some of them make no sense. Reminders to try and find journals online when I know I have them in my office. Translations that are incomplete because I apparently don't know Hieratic well enough even though I teach the bloody course on Hieratic and Demotic writing. Things like that.

I watched a documentary about dig sites at Saqqara the other night, and I had to stop about half-way through, because I'd been to those digs while they were happening, I know some of the men involved and I know what happened, what they found. The papyri that were brought out. I worked on translating some of them. But the documentary showed different finds, different people working at the digs. I knew that place. Marc, mate, we can talk about it later if you want, but can I just get this posted first and then I promise we can go talk about Saqqara and look at maps and photos all you want. Why are you typing loads and then deleting it all instead of just telling me? The girl behind the counter is giving me funny looks. I don't want to give her more reasons. Oh okay

This isn't right. There are too many differences. This isn't where I'm supposed to be.


I'm normally more well-spoken than this, sorry, but I'm just, I'm sat in a diner typing out my thoughts at the moment, and they are more than a little scattered, so, yes, sorry.

What I'm hearing is that it's now possible for the mirror-verse people to be here, which is a really troubling development, especially in light of what Kal saw the other day.

You think I'm a troubling mirror-verse person?

I couldn't say whether you yourself are troubling, but the increasing possibility that you are a mirror-verse person is troubling in and of itself.

I don't think I'm that bad. How would you know if I was a mirror-verse person?

Never intimated that you were, mate. Other than the salient points made above? I suppose I'd have to know you better before I could say for certain, but for now I can only surmise.

I guess there's no tests for this, then. Other than whatever Captain Rogers is suggesting.

That's so many words. [...] Do you need to talk about it IRL?

Do I? I don't know. Maybe. Probably. Are you offering?

I need more coffee, I know that.

I don't drink coffee, but I still love a good coffee shop. Weirdly enough, a lot of the ones I'm familiar with are also in this world. Want to meet in the city?

Sure. Yes. I would like that, yes. I'm currently at [location of a diner]. Would you prefer somewhere else?

Nah, that totally works. I'll grab a ride share and be there soon.

Okay. Good, thanks. Yes.

Cheers, mate.

Yeah, man, for sure. Anytime. See you in a few.

Are you suggesting that you've come through here from another dimension? That sort of thing might leave an energy signal of some kind. (That's for the more Science-oriented folks to figure out.)

Let's make sure to connect you with the Science Team to get checked out.

I don't know what I'm suggesting, to be honest.

I bet someone can help you with that. Our Science Team is second to none.

I'd like to take a look at the books that appeared. Perhaps there's something in there that'll lead us to an answer as to what's happened to you.

[info]do_look_sharp

Because the books are mine-but-not?

Exactly. There's got to be some clue that'll help us figure out what's going on.

Oh, yes, sorry. Name's Henry. Hank sometimes. Henry Foss. I'm an electrical and mechanical engineer, but I dabble in everything science.

It is not easy to go through life knowing that things are not as they should be. I wish you strength, my friend.

Thanks very much.

Khonshu says to pass on his greetings.

Well, there's a name I have not heard in many years! How is Khonshu?

I'm answering this, Steven! Tall, bony, loud and rude. How're you, Mr Thor?

His surname is Odinson.

Sorry. Mr Odinson.

I am confused. You are not the person that we have met in this place?

I mean, I know you, Cath. I took you on a tour round the Met weeks ago and you gave me vegan croissants as a thank you.

But I'm going to guess that none of that happened for you?

We... discussed going to the museum, yes. But as far as I know that trip has not taken place. Yet.

I am still interested in going... but Thanksgiving is a very busy time for a baker.

I thought as much, yeah. More proof, then.

Your croissants were delicious, by the way. You put different jams in each one.

I am very sorry, then. I hope you can return to your world.

That is very kind of you to say. I'll have to try and recreate them for you.
