While I did anticipate finding myself in a brave new world upon stepping through that door, this isn't exactly what I was expecting.
Nor is this the company I was expecting to have.
I've been hearing a whole lot of strangers' voices coming out of this ancient piece of shit, and a notable lack of any familiar ones.
I also find myself somehow bereft of a number of items and abilities I should have had, many of which would have been pretty handy in what seems like a deserted island situation.
The rational question to ask here would be "what the fuck".
But just from eavesdropping on a few of y'all's conversations, it doesn't seem like anyone actually has the answer to that question.
So I'll skip the useless panic and confusion and whatnot and instead just ask:
Who was poking me and ran off before I fully woke up?
Fess up.

Because I'm betting we're all from different universes.
And I'm KD6-3.7, by the way.

So a powered human but without your powers.
Maybe the same situation as mine.
Making us easier prey? Assuming it was done intentionally.
Saw what you said to RE419S. Are you going to follow the footprints?

Though I couldn't say why or how it's happening.
[He'd probably have gotten a chuckle out of the joke, at least. Maybe it's the whole android thing – which says too much about Dirk himself, honestly – but he feels just slightly less highly strung talking tk this guy.]
And yes.
I'll be careful, but I'm not going to just ignore an obvious lead.
And if this shit's a trap and someone thinks I'll be easier prey minus some powers, they'll be in for a surprise.
