Hello? Where's my kid? Why am I in Manhattan? What the fuck happened? Did we blip again? We blipped again, didn't we. My phone's date looks completely fucked. Who's got answers, because nobody out in the street with me seems even remotely surprised.

	Liking is better than the alternative, I guess. Being blipped to a new place sounds better than blipped out of existence. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	That's my experience, yeah. Sorry. Hi. Sam Wilson, I'm friends with Tony. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Oh! Sam. We met ~~officially~~ at the funeral. Has that happened for you? Time periods and all. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	That's later than I've heard much about. I'm from a different timeline though. There's a few of them that share a lot of the same people and similar events. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Oh, okay, that also happens here? Why not? I'm sure things can get even weirder. Well then, I'm May. May Parker, I'm Peter's aunt. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Yeah, we knew about the multiverse for a while at home. ~~You sound younger than~~ Nice to meet you. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I'm just a simple woman trying to raise my kid the best I can. Not really one of those sciencey people. You too. Any friend of Tony's ... has probably mildly inconvenienced me. But I'm still happy to meet you. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I'm definitely a sciencey people. Mostly biotechnology and cybernetics, I run the clinic here. That sounds like Tony. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Nothing wrong with sciencey people until they start destroying your home. A clinic sounds more like a public additive than a detractor, though. There's a comfort in knowing some things never change. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

I was largely known back home for not having ever caused widespread chaos/destruction/genocide. A lot of my work stayed strictly theoretical and some of it I never even published to avoid it being caught up in Project Rebirth or any of its off-shoots. Turned out to be a good thing, pretty much everything that went wrong was down to scientists playing with things they shouldn't.

He's pretty similar to the one I knew before too, personality-wise, but a lot more grounded. Mine didn't really have a family or anything.

	Sounds like you're becoming one of my favorites with a reputation like that. I knew him pre-kid. It was only after we came back from the blip that she was there ~~and he was gone and Pet~~. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	machinesrus 2020-02-20 07:19 pm UTC (link)
	For all the good it did. He was sort of a hot mess at home. I've heard it used to be pretty similar. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	larb 2020-02-20 07:28 pm UTC (link)
	If it would have made things worse, seems like a fair amount of good. I'd call him the hottest mess but he might take that as a compliment. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	~~The whole place doesn't exist anymore, I don't know if it matters whether a few people might have died faster.~~ Maybe. Probably would, yeah. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	We inconvenience the ones we like. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Is that what you tell yourself? Or is this "we" just encompassing all Tony Starks? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	notyourplayboy 2020-02-20 07:29 pm UTC (link)
	Atoning for all Tony Starks is a little hard. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Atone is a bit strong for it, but luckily I only know one. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Much easier to...apologize for? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	larb 2020-02-20 07:47 pm UTC (link)
	If you think apologizing is easy, you might already be on your way. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I really am sorry for dragging Pete into everything. And you. It was selfish. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	He's my kid. ~~He's all I have~~[ ... ] If something had happened... But I'll acknowledge that some it, he would have done anyway. And maybe in some ways, you made it safer for him. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: May \| Tony notyourplayboy 2020-02-20 08:06 pm UTC (link)
	It would have killed you. I get that now. I tried. Once I met him -- you and Ben raised a really great kid, May. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	May \| Tony larb 2020-02-20 08:10 pm UTC (link)
	It literally killing me would be a kindness. God, we tried. I'm not always sure how much of it was us—or is me—and how much is him. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
