I haven't been here too long, by anyone's recording of time, but it seems enough to get attached. I met a sister I never got to know in my world, and now she is gone. In my homeland, Andromache was a legend.

[Arthur]

I'm at loose ends, and I don't like it. Does Atlantis need more help?

	They're amazing, but yes. We don't mix. They're better off on their own island to roam. I don't think humans even understand humans, so there you go. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I admit, I wouldn't mind visiting, however. I am rather good with animals of all kinds. No, it's very true that humans do not understand one another. It grieves me every day. My mission in going into the wider world was to bring understanding, but I was a bit more naive then. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	That's probably possible. The magic shielding the island is pretty potent but I'm sure there are ways to get around it occasionally. I guess if we unlocked ultimate understanding, what else would there be? Rhetorical question. I feel like I need to be contemplating and sipping a cup of tea now. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	The temptation is great. I usually have much more to occupy me back home. This is a [...] bit of a vacation. Dinosaurs notwithstanding. A cup of tea does not sound bad at all, frankly. Whenever you are free, we can commiserate about the philosophical. And perhaps have cookies, too. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I hear you. Things were always going wrong back in my home too - like, always. I'm free pretty often during the day since I do my shows at night. I'd just have to find someone to watch Leo, unless you don't mind him coming along. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	golden_lasso 2020-10-02 01:34 am UTC (link)
	It's the nature of the world, isn't it? And so many just blind to it. Sometimes it made me crazy. Of course I don't mind Leo. I probably shouldn't bring my lasso though, it's quite shiny and attractive for a young child. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	It creates crazy moments for us all. Well, I'm pretty into the lasso so I'll find someone to watch him. He doesn't start school for another few weeks. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Zee, if you want to see the lasso, you only have to ask, you know. [Zatanna] Is it too personal to ask about John? I know you aren't from the same world, or timeline, as I recall. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	cigam 2020-10-02 01:45 am UTC (link)
	This is me asking. [diana] It's not too personal. We aren't from the same world, or weren't - he disappeared a couple of weeks ago. Which was definitely hard to try to explain to Leo. But did you want to know something in particular? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	golden_lasso 2020-10-02 02:03 am UTC (link)
	Just remember, any reactions are involuntary. [Zee] No, although I did wonder if the John here was from your world. He did not seem to be from mine. I feel for Leo. It has to be confusing at best. And how are you holding up? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	diana cigam 2020-10-02 02:06 am UTC (link)
	He had a whole other life here, was in love with someone else. So I didn't feel particularly attached - I mostly missed the John I know and love. Still do. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I'm trying to learn the same grace as you. There is a man here with Steve's face. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	diana cigam 2020-10-02 02:14 am UTC (link)
	Ah, the face thing. It's hard, that's for sure. He can't change his face but you gotta do you. Especially if it's uncomfortable to be around him. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	It's bittersweet. I know it's not Steve, so it's more like looking at a moving picture of him. In a way, I don't mind it, for it refreshes my memories as well. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	diana cigam 2020-10-02 03:33 pm UTC (link)
	Moving picture, I like that. I guess seeing the John that was here was akin to a moving picture too. I definitely understand the bittersweet feeling too. You're not alone there. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Well, we have each other. I know that back home, you knew a different Diana and I knew a different Zatanna, but I suspect we are close enough versions to make do, right? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	diana cigam 2020-10-02 04:12 pm UTC (link)
	More than make do. I'll take any Diana version, they're all good to me. (Reply to this) (Parent)
