	It'll sound odd, but this [website] explains everything. Cover your eyes. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	...Jon and I are going to have to have a long talk about not shunting people into alternate universes. If he ever remembers to get me out. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	flame_sniper 2008-07-23 10:28 pm UTC (link)
	You're taking this pretty well. Does this kind of thing happen to you often? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	_rorschach 2008-07-23 10:32 pm UTC (link)
	No. I just work with a guy who is omniscient and omnipotent. Shunting people into alternate universes is definitely not out of the question for him. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	flame_sniper 2008-07-23 10:34 pm UTC (link)
	That's quite a gift he's got. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	_rorschach 2008-07-23 10:34 pm UTC (link)
	Not really. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	flame_sniper 2008-07-23 10:36 pm UTC (link)
	Is yours better? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	_rorschach 2008-07-23 10:40 pm UTC (link)
	No. I don't have powers. Doesn't mean his are "better". Imagine seeing every moment of time simultaneously, and having total control over every facet of the universe. Can you imagine how fucked up his perspective is? I wouldn't want that "gift". (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	flame_sniper 2008-07-23 10:43 pm UTC (link)
	I guess that's true. And you don't have powers? Why the mask, then? Don't only heroes have costumes? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	_rorschach 2008-07-23 10:45 pm UTC (link)
	I didn't say I wasn't a cape. Just that I don't have powers. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	flame_sniper 2008-07-23 10:55 pm UTC (link)
	Except being resourceful, I'd assume. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	_rorschach 2008-07-23 10:56 pm UTC (link)
	I like to think so. I'm Rorschach. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	flame_sniper 2008-07-23 11:04 pm UTC (link)
	I'm Rei. It's nice to meet you. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	_rorschach 2008-07-24 08:46 am UTC (link)
	You seem to know about capes. In the business? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	flame_sniper 2008-07-24 11:34 am UTC (link)
	Why do you ask? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	_rorschach 2008-07-24 11:47 am UTC (link)
	In my experience, someone that knows about the business is either a cape...or the kind of person a cape would fight. You seem too polite for the latter. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	flame_sniper 2008-07-24 11:48 am UTC (link)
	Well, there are a lot of them here. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	_rorschach 2008-07-24 11:54 am UTC (link)
	A lot of capes? Or a lot of villains? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	flame_sniper 2008-07-24 11:56 am UTC (link)
	Both, to be honest. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	_rorschach 2008-07-24 12:28 pm UTC (link)
	Hm. Interesting. Still haven't answered my question. Which are you? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Rorschach flame_sniper 2008-07-24 02:46 pm UTC (link)
	I'm here to help. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Rei _rorschach 2008-07-24 02:48 pm UTC (link)
	Good to know. You mentioned powers. Do many of the capes here have powers? Where I come from, Doctor Manhattan is the only one with real powers. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Rorschach flame_sniper 2008-07-24 02:50 pm UTC (link)
	It's the opposite here. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Rei _rorschach 2008-07-24 02:55 pm UTC (link)
	Really? Hm. Do they fight street level crime? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Rorschach flame_sniper 2008-07-24 02:57 pm UTC (link)
	Some of us do. I've stopped a few bank robberies. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Rei _rorschach 2008-07-24 03:04 pm UTC (link)
	I meant more like muggings and armed robberies. I'll be honest, people like Doctor Manhattan fighting muggers and bank robbers seems... Well, sort of like- Holy shit it's 2008! (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Rorschach flame_sniper 2008-07-24 03:06 pm UTC (link)
	Some do. I can't speak for all of them, there's a lot. I know someone with amazing powers who stops anything he can. ... yes? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Rei _rorschach 2008-07-24 03:16 pm UTC (link)
	Hm. Well, I guess to each their own, but it seems like they should be handling bigger things than muggings. Foreign relations, stopping wars, things like that. Good to be diligent, I guess. It was 1985 where I came from. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

I'm not as powerful as them, so I can't speak for what they do. But right now things are running all right, I think. I think a lot of people are of the mind that things will play out as they will. It's not my way, but I'm not here to change others.

Well, you're not the first to travel through time. I jumped a few years myself, though there are some from much further back than you.

	Different worlds create different outlooks, I guess. I will say that if someone tries to start World War III, someone better do something if they want to keep considering themselves "heroes". Like how far back? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Rorschach flame_sniper 2008-07-24 03:55 pm UTC (link)
	If that happens, I think a lot of people would do something about it. I know I would. I think there's someone here from the 1500s? I could be wrong. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Rei _rorschach 2008-07-24 04:09 pm UTC (link)
	Good. Then this world has a decent class of capes. The 1500s? That's...wow. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Rorschach flame_sniper 2008-07-24 04:11 pm UTC (link)
	We try. I can't imagine how difficult that must have been. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Rei _rorschach 2008-07-24 04:43 pm UTC (link)
	It sounds like a nightmare. (Reply to this) (Parent)
