Listen, something happened. I'm not going to have as much time to manage the diner all on my own. I've asked before, but we've got new people and some people sounded sorta interested. Are there maybe people who would be willing to help cook? I can do prep stuff super fast, but I'm going to need people managing the rest of the meals for a few days.

Also, if I could get some extra hands in the greenhouse because I've gotta deal with a family thing but also gotta process all this quarantined food.

I don't ask for help a lot. But I could really stand to get a few more hands for a week or so.

The liking guy's faces.

[kyley_b]

You're saying that because I notice what people look like, I'm gay?

[doubled_speed]

Um, no. I notice what people look like and I'm not gay. But bone structure is definitely something guys notice in other guys when they're gay

[kyley_b]

It is not!

And my sexuality is irrelevant!

[doubled_speed]

It really is. Like, when I look at my boyfriend back home, I just look at him sometimes and am at AWE at his cheekbones. Like, holy fuck.

[kyley_b]

Yeah? But is he another superhero?

[doubled_speed]

David?

[Tommy has to stop and think. But then he shakes his head.]

Just a former tech support guy.

[kyley_b]

Oh. I'm surprised.

You must miss him like crazy.

[doubled_speed]

[Who was a super genius and knew shit and was going to change the world some day. But Tommy's biased, he just remembers the hot nerd in a sweater in the hallway who bought him noodles.]

Is crazy an amount? Yeah. Though I guess I've only been here six months without him even though, you know, I've been here longer than that.

[kyley_b]

...okay, that's some time travel type shit, I'm just gonna smile and nod.

You'll get back to him, dude.

[doubled_speed]

It's more that sometimes you leave this place for a short period of time, and you're home for a LONG time, and then you're back here. It's happened to a very small number of us.

[kyley_b]

Oh, jeez. I dunno what to say.

[doubled_speed]

There really isn't anything to say about it, so just, yanno, don't?

[kyley_b]

Okay.

I'll just get my ass to the diner and the greenhouse.

[doubled_speed]

Both at once? Okay Madrox.

[kyley_b]

...I don't know what that means. Bit I meant one after the other.

[doubled_speed]

He makes copies of himself.

[kyley_b]

Dude, how the fuck would I know that? I'm not from your reality! Jesus Christ, why does everybody act like I ought to know stuff when I CAN'T?

Ugh. Whatever, I'm on my way to do whatever you need.

[doubled_speed]

Greenhouse then, man. I'll just show you some basic stuff.

[kyley_b]

Headed over.

[doubled_speed]

Sounds like a plan, man. I'll be there.
