Did a memo go around? Crime spree, all of Gotham: invited?

[Mingmei has just had a very stressful day at the Daily Planet. She's sitting in her cubicle, her blue laptop open in front of her and a cup of coffee being nursed in her hands at the moment. She's typing in the dark as there's hardly anyone left working for the day.]

I want to go to other places. Where should I go? Would anyone want to travel with me?

[Locked to the DC Door.]

I know there's a lot going on in another door here, but if you need a hand with anything, let me know. My resources are at your disposal.

[Careless smudges of food on the paper precede the message. Then, there is sketching. Little stick figures begin to collect and spread on the page in bundles.]

dear sestra. today i fold all the clothes for you and kill rat in basement who chews your house. i set trap in basement for him, little scraps of paper. rats like paper they think are written with important things. i leave him there to scare other rats. why do all numbers in green phone ring and ring and ring and ring

soon you come home. i make house for you. i fill basement while you are gone with rats.

[A print of red, red lips. A few more dark stick figures, heavily outlined, and a small postscript.]

i run out of lipsticks from your suitcase so bring more.

I've given this a lot of thought recently, but I'm fairly certain that if I had a sister, even if I were cross with her, I would not attempt to push her down the stairs.

It just seems rather rude.

Are cheerios donut seeds??

[Text to Mingmei S.]

What r u doing? How is soup city?

[Locked to Alice L]

Your door, what's it like?

[She's thoughtful about this one, and her curiosity has gotten the better of her lately after reading through everyone's commentaries about where they are located.]

If I were to visit another world, which one would be a good one to visit? I do miss home, but I don't think that there's a way that we can return home.

Kitane? Would you be interested in coming with me?

I think I've found something incredible. Skateboarding. I need to learn how to do it.

[After this news article]

I think I know why I am working at this newspaper. There are always strange things happening.

Is it like this through every door? I do not understand why the craziest things happen here. It doesn't happen like this back in Las Vegas.

I am not sure how this works. How can we prevent these strange things from happening?

[Mingmei isn't sure what she thinks of the strange events through the DC Door. Some things are considered bad in her life from her history and her religion, so she's not sure how this is going to work out today.]

[After the most recent news from Gotham]

Is there...a way for us to help, to protect people? I don't like all of this crazy things that happen here, but I want to try to help somehow.

[Public]

I almost forgot how gross New York summers can be while swinging around in bright red pajamas.

[Private to Harry O.]

We cool?

Seems like I missed body swapping fun. Wonder if that's how the Starlights feel

[She is overly excited to share this information with Kitane, and in her excitement she doesn't mark this as private just between them. She's sitting at home in her apartment in Metropolis, typing away on her laptop beside an open window, dressed in comfy pajamas at the moment.]

Kitane! There is someone here who speaks my language. Can you believe it? It was the person whose body switched I with. Isn't that exciting? I can't believe it. She learned the language for a job and she can read and write it very well.

...I'm sorry! How are you?

[Public]

Who came back in a suit and shiny shoes?

[Aubrey R and Mingmei S, individually]

Were you there?

So, not a very weird dream then. What was that all about?

Almonds do not smell good.

[Locked to S. Mingmei]

I want to do coffee again!

[Locked to Aubrey R.]

Tonight we will watch Duck Dynasty and do Uncle Sai's turkey mating dance to find you a new boyfriend.

[Public]

I need a good coffee place in Batcity.

[Mingmei was super excited. Ridiculously super excited. Her best friend Kitane was ready to be here and they were going to catch up after a long time of having not seen each other. From what she knew, they were going to meet her here in Metropolis and then head to this place called the Talon that she'd heard about through the office grapevine. Small town coffee shop, but Mingmei was eager to try it.

She paced anxiously in her apartment near the Daily Planet, eager for her friend to arrive. She didn't know Aubrey that well, but they were on fairly familiar terms, at least. Kitane she knew much better. This would definitely be an adventure to remember.]

[Public entry, shortly after this reaches the news in Metropolis]

I don't know if I like this place very much. Does this sort of thing happen often around here? This sounds pretty...scary.

无法用言语表达我的感受。至少，尚未英语。我吓坏了。我要离开这里不知何故。我不喜欢所有的犯罪，这种不安的感觉，我有。它不能是这里不安全。否则为什么有需要为所有像 Superman 和 Batman 的超级英雄？
