Once outside the building, Ed felt better. "I for one tend to have a hard time trusting any telepath. I don't know what brought my counterpart here to decide to do that." Ed frowned. Then added under his breath, "Especially one so unscrupulous as her. I could feel her in my mind toward the end there. I worry what she may have gleaned from any of us."

He started walking in the direction the others were. "They are this way. As I said before I can't give the exact location, but from the pull, it seems they were close. And thankfully all together." He paused in his speech. "I have another concern. I did not have time to experiment with it. But maybe if we have a few minutes to spare I'd like to see if my tracking spell would work for a counterpart in this world." He'd keep his reasons to himself for now, unless pressed about it.

Nightlocke nodded slightly as she looked back at her counterpart as well as both Mary and Ed. "Laters." Nightlocke said as she decided to go and deal with Quicksilver and see if he was there or not. As soon as the elevator closed Bethany leaned back slightly as she looked over towards Mary, and nodded slightly. It was probably not the best decision to do, she wasnt even sure if Emma had done something else to her mind while she was there. "Sorry, it probably wasnt the best choice. But theres not much to go on with the whole memories being changed or whatever. And none of us are telepaths here so it was probably the only thing we could find out about that." Bethany said shrugging as she looked over at Ed.

"Wouldn't you need a hair sample or whatever from the counterpart to actually work?" Bethany ended up asking Ed she wasnt sure how his powers really worked other then the use of someone's hair to use his powers to track someone down. She was still more than just ready to try and get back home as soon as they could she wasnt sure if they stayed here longer if there would be more memory changes.

Antoinette had never been much of a confrontational person growing up. She often felt disagreements could be solved rather easily with polite conversation, so the yelling Guin was doing really didn’t make her feel comfortable in this space. She could see points on both sides of the argument but she thought they should really rather work together rather than criticize.
Antoinette continued to stare at the unconscious bodies, hoping for the arguing to be over soon, when they disappeared. Antoinette blinked and looked up to see and hear Runa explain that she had sent them away. Antoinette relaxed with some relief and a decision was quickly being formed to finally go find the others. If only Ed was with them, then they could have tracked the other group easily.

Runa Baldurdattir & Guin Stark

Location: New York City Defenders HQ
Skills: Asgardian Magic

"Oh no, buddy, it's really fucking clear that you aren't at all like the Doctor Strange we know," Guin shot back. Digs to her intelligence really got under her skin. Had he not said that, Guin might've de-escalated - but now, it was war. "The biggest clue being that our Strange is competent - and you're anything but." She didn't know if she trusted him to actually be able to use a spell to send them home across the dimensions, so Guin's mind started thinking up alternate plans. If Strange couldn't help them, then maybe Mister Fantastic and all were around, or hell, even Doom might be a good option. Thor was a dud, but there was Asgard - they were experts in traveling the Nine Realms, maybe they had some sort of artifact that could cross universal boundaries.

"I will not break it unless I must," Runa vowed, taking the sling ring from Doctor Strange. She felt more comfortable now, knowing she had a means to access the Mirror Dimension. Hopefully, Lance and his father would return to human form soon. Strange was right though - the Hulk couldn't mix with Guinevere and Pietro, it was just too much baggage, far too painful for him. Runa could respect that. She knew that grief could warp the mind, cause people to do unimaginable things. "We'll find the rest of our people and secure lodgings elsewhere, as to avoid further incident. I'll stay in contact," Runa then said.

It had been a moment since Runa had used a sling ring, but it was a rather nice object to focus on. She checked on her earlier tracking spells, noting that the rest of the group were moving in their direction. Perfect. She assumed Edus must've been using mystical means of his own. It took her two tries, but Runa managed to open up a sling ring portal, seeing their wayward members on the other side. "Step on through, please - I was human last time I used a sling ring, I'm a bit out of practice," Runa instructed.

Guin glanced at the sling ring portal, happy to see that the others were on the other side - and looking mostly unharmed. At least Runa seemed to have found her mojo again, her magic was doing much better than it had been previously. Still, there was one thing that was still missing (not Amidala - the little space lemur was hanging upside down from the rafters, completely content and unbothered by everything that had happened). No, the most important thing of all was missing - God fucking damnit they don't have my suit... My poor baby is gone...

"Wait, why do you want to try to track someone's counterpart? Is there a reason for it?" Mary couldn't help but ask a bit curious as to why he'd want to track a counterpart. There had to be a reason for it, but what exactly was it? "As for whether that would work or not. I don't see why it wouldn't be able to. As far as I can tell, it seems like we're identical with our counterparts, so odds are our genetics should be the same... So don't see why you trying to track a counterpart wouldn't work."

She stopped talking though when a portal opened up in front of them, and she saw Runa there, telling them to go through the portal and all. "Sounds like you all have been having as much fun as we have in this crazy reality," she said to her with a slight wave before stepping through the portal and seeing the others there. "What's happened with you all?"

I think you'll survive, you can just make another suit, or go try to find your original one, Pietro mentally said to her, trying not to laugh a little bit at how dramatic she was being over the entire thing. He then turned to look at Mary when she asked what had been going on with them since they had more or less crash landed there. "Oh you know, fell out of the sky, ran into my counterpart earlier who is super annoying, ended up here with what's left of the Avengers, where the Hulk has tried to kill me more then once so far, even when other members of the Brotherhood decided to show up, but you know, just another day for us really when you think about it. What about you?"

"We crashed at the mansion... Ended up with people less then stellar, fought your annoying counterpart too, and then sort of ended up here now, that's mainly just the short version of events really."

"Oh, a walking corpse now. Your reality just seems to be getting more interesting by the minute," Strange commented, before more or less heading towards another room. "You are free to stay for as long as you like here, and I'll likely see if those in the Mirror Dimension have calmed down yet at this point in a few moments... And as I said, I'll look to see how best to send you away from here." Strange disappeared through the doorway.

"Well, at least we're all in one spot now right?" Klara commented cheerfully with a smile. "Now we just have to find the way back."

"Yeah, well that only gets us so far. Reality jumping, not exactly something I figured we'd deal with. Then again, with our luck it doesn't surprise me at all."

"Eh, we'll figure it out eventually. Just need to think about it a little bit... Though personally I have no idea how we get back," Pietro commented, before mentally saying to Guin, Guessing you don't want help from the wizard, so any other ideas?

Ed thankfully didn't have to answer Mary's questions just yet. Because a portal opened and out stepped the rest of their group. Seemingly all intact. He let out a soft sigh of relief at seeing them again. The anxious pool that had been settling into his stomach released some. "Glad you're all here and accounted for."

He nodded as they explained what they had been through. He agreed with Mary's assessment about Pietro's counterpart here. "I'd like to avoid any more of our counterparts if possible. We need to find a place to hunker down though. The Mansion is out of the question because of Danger, and unfortunately, the ship is in the lake." He paused. "Well maybe with Klara we could get the ship out of the lake now." Saying Klara's name didn't feel right now. He needed to talk to them about his theory without Klara nearby. He also needed to show Mary the tracking spell working for one counterpart but not for the Klara one.

Bethany turned her attention towards the portal that suddenly started to open in front of them, she started to tense up slightly thinking that it was someone else that was about to attack them. But she was relieved to see Runa on the other end along with the others as well to and gave them a slight wave. "About time we found you guys." Bethany said as she stepped through the portal as well, and looked towards Pietro. "Yeah your counterpart was pretty annoying, my counterpart and I sent him in and out of a room a few times just to annoy him to." Bethany said as she looked over to see Dr Strange there before he left through a door she turned to look over at the others.

"So what is the plan now that we are all together?" Bethany asked as she looked over at Mary and then the others she didn't really like the idea of being here any longer than they were now. "Also couldn't we just teleport the ship over to us that way we don't have to try and find a way to get it out of the lake or something?" She asked.

Antoinette watched Runa use the sling ring like Dr Strange did and slowly a portal opened. Antoinette moved closer and spied the rest of the X-Men and Asgardians on the other side. Antoinette grinned, temporarily ignoring the others that were in the room. She was just so grateful to see everyone united again.
Once Edus was over, Antoinette rushed over and hugged him. ”Thank goodness you’re alright,” she declared. After a moment’s hug, Antoinette released her friend. She smiled at him and looked at the others. ”Lance and his father are in the mirror dimension at the moment. Hopefully, we can bring them back soon,” she added on.

Runa Baldurdattir & Guin Stark

Location: New York City Defenders HQ
Skills: N/A

You'd be upset too if it was something of yours going missing, Guin pointed out to Pietro - Imagine if it had been your walkman, you'd have lost it. She did know she was being a little dramatic - but that was part of the humor of it, right? And she was bummed about her suit not showing up so far, as she had worked really hard on it. Someone else might've found it and took it for themselves, making it into their origin story as the world's next superhero/villain - she cringed at the thought of someone else flying around in her baby. At least she could be comforted by the fact that they'd have to be fairly short to wear it, as it wasn't height adjustable (yet). "Damn, everyone is running into the other!Pietro but me, huh?"

Guin wasn't mad about that - from what she knew of this reality, the other!Pietro was a twisted Darth Vader sort of character, not the lovable Clone Wars Anakin Skywalker version she adored. She didn't know if her safety would be guaranteed with the other!Pietro - or if he would attack her just like everyone else. Her thoughts drifted towards Muscles for a moment, the once-and-future version of Pietro - his death still pained her, but of the alternate counterparts of her husband, Muscles had to be the better one. I'm fine with the wizard doing things, but we might also want another plan, because I am giving him 0 stars on Yelp so far.

Runa tilted her head slightly. "What danger is there at the mansion?" she asked, unfamiliar with the sentient A.I. "Surely it's nothing that we could not handle as a group?" Runa posed. She thought for a bit though. They did need somewhere to stay - preferably on Midgard, as they were receiving Strange's help, and they just weren't familiar with the situation on Asgard.

"Wait, danger danger or Danger Danger?" Guin asked. "If you meant Danger, then she should be able to help us - unless she's seriously damaged here, which would suck but also... would be par for the course." Guin sighed slightly.

A thought then occurred to Runa. "If Stark isn't alive here, who occupies Stark Tower? If it's unattended, perhaps that might be good place for us to stay and strategize - familiar grounds, centrally located, and plenty of technology around for us to look at avenues other than the mystical for a return trip to our Midgard," Runa suggested. She didn't know if technology would find the answer to their problems, but she figured Lance and Guinevere would be inclined to look towards science for an answer. Really, the main benefit of Stark Tower was that it had a lot of space and a good location - and she doubted anyone would trespass there. She imagined Stark had to have advanced security systems set up in his passing, ones that his only child could pass through when others could not.

I mean true... It's probably a good idea to have another plan, which honestly not sure if we even have one currently.

Mary looked at Guin when she asked about Danger, and Runa unaware of her existence. "In our reality, Danger is the main AI of the Danger Room who has a mind of her own, and can inhabit a robotic body. She's made with a combination of Earth technology and Shi'ar tech. And she is capable of a lot, considering she's the one who typically creates the training sessions the team tends to do... Problem is in this reality she ended up getting left behind at the mansion when it was abandoned. So she's been there by herself for a while. We ran into her by accident, and well... She's not really super damaged per say... More of... Crazy and has been maintained for years. When we entered the mansion she had created a great big illusion as if the mansion still was inhabited and seemed to be a loop of the same day. She seemed okay, if a bit strange, at first, but she started glitching out and started acting a bit more psychotic and tried to kill us so... Danger is not really a threat to take lightly, even when she's a bit damaged and hasn't been repaired or anything like that for a while."

"I can see about trying to get the ship out of the lake, so at the least we might be able to get some things from it, and maybe see if it is damaged and we might be able to repair it hopefully?" Klara smiled, looking at Ed when he mentioned that. "Though it might be best for at least a few people to accompany me to see about looking over the damage and such. Teleporting the ship without being near it or without a strong enough device likely wouldn't work. It probably in the long run would be easier to just pull it out that way, it wouldn't be too difficult."

"Well, we can see about doing that, and if Stark Tower is abandoned, we could try to hang out there for a little while anyway..." She agreed that they probably should go someplace other then here. Not to mention it might have some stuff they could use, potentially.

Strange came back into the room now, "Well, isn't this peculiar, there is some sort of entity here..." he mused, before there was a flash of light of sorts, and a sort of red swirl seemed to appear in the room for a moment, as it slowly started to take form, eventually taking the familiar form of Tony Stark.

Wait... Your dad is dead in this world right? So... Is that a ghost or something or what cause what the hell??? Pietro was incredibly confused as to what was going on. One thing was apparent, and that was that this version of Stark, whoever he was whether it was actually him or not, was pissed off about something, and he looked at namely Thor and Strange, clearly annoyed.

"Seriously? How much more screwed up could things get? The instant I'm gone all hell breaks loose and you all lose track of my kid and then more or less just fighting in order to try and do something to get her back? What the hell have you all even been doing?"

Ed hugged Annie back tightly. Smiling at her. "I'm glad you're okay too. You'll have to tell me what all you guys did while we were separated. Later, when we have some quiet time." He nodded as Mary explained their experiences. He was curious about what the other group had encountered. For now, though they should work on how to get home. Going to Stark tower seemed like it could be a good idea. Hopefully, there wasn't another group there. But that was unlikely.

When Strange entered the room and made Stark appear Ed was surprised. Stark was dead here. His death had been a major catalyst for this world. Had his spirit just been watching it all fall apart? That had to be unpleasant. He wondered for a moment if his sister's spirit still roamed the world and had seen him. If so what did she think of all he had done?

Relief and security flooded Antoinette when Edus returned her hug. She had always felt trustworthy with people who adored birds like she did and Edus was one of those people for her. He released her from the hug, wanting to know about her experience but later, Antoinette nodded in agreement. She stayed near Edus but turned to focus on the group and the conversation. When she heard mention of Stark Tower, Antoinette listened closely to Runa and nodded. Guin, Lance and her had seen the tower when they first landed in this reality’s New York.
”Stark Tower did look abandoned when the three of us landed in an alleyway. We were a few blocks away but the tower or sign wasn’t lit up,” Antoinette said to Runa. Something strange happened after that. Stark appeared in the room in a cloud of red smoke. Antoinette blinked, looking at the man curiously. The way he spoke made it sound like he knew this reality but what they knew was Stark was dead, hence the tower looking abandoned. Was this another Stark from a different reality?

Bethany nodded slightly going to Stark Tower was probably the best thing, a place that wasn't occupied by either the X-Men, or The Brotherhood or this group, and they could work out a plan from there. "I'm fine with that." Bethany said she looked towards Guin asking about Danger. "Yeah Danger was a little bit crazy, kind of like a Rampant AI from Halo or whatever." Bethany told her, she wasn't a techie or anything like that. "Danger though could be helpful maybe, we find a way to fix her up and bring her to Stark Tower could help us out there." She suggested, while they could also try and get their ship out of the lake.

"Klara, Runa and maybe I can try to get the ship out of the lake and over to the tower to." She turned to see Dr. Strange coming back and turned her attention to the weird mist that was appearing, and a few seconds later Tony Stark himself appeared in front of them as a ghost of some kind which was really weird to see. "Is he like a Force Ghost now or something?" Bethany asked.

Runa Baldurdattir & Guin Stark

Location: New York City Defenders HQ
Skills: N/A

Runa nodded, listening to Mary's story about this sentient AI - Runa found Midgardian science rather strange, but she was quickly learning that Midgardians had a special affinity for designing killer robots. It wasn't really surprising to learn that the X-Men had one - in fact, Runa would have been more surprised if there actually weren't any robots that called the X-Mansion home. "Yes, I can help with the ship - that shouldn't be a problem," Runa said, as the conversation turned from Danger and towards their next steps.

"Damn, poor Danger," Guin lamented. It always sucked when an AI started getting weird - and Guin had some firsthand experience with this. She used to use an AI named PHIL, but he had had an unfortunate tendency to threaten to kill Pietro, so Guin had replaced him with FRIDAY. FRIDAY was sassy, but at least she wasn't murderous.

"Speak of the devil and he shall appear," Runa murmured with curiosity, as what looked to be Tony Stark appeared before them out of shimmering red light. She had never seen anything like this before - Runa didn't know what Stark was at this point, although Strange's term of entity seemed to be a good enough label for the moment. At any rate, it was somewhat convenient, as they had just been discussing the possibility of turning Stark Tower into a momentary base of operations - Stark ought to be familiar with whatever security systems had been left in place. "What is a Force ghost?" Runa asked Bethany, unfamiliar with the term.

No one stays dead in Star Wars, so... Maybe he is a Force ghost, Guin whispered telepathically to Pietro. She felt strangely sad but also happy, seeing the ghostly looking form of her father - it had been months since she had seen her dad, and even though this Tony Stark was from another world, Guin couldn't help but see her dad there. Her eyes teared up slightly and she blinked the tears away. "Dad?" Guin said hesitantly. She could feel telepathically that he was there, but also not quite - it was something she had never sensed before, a strange feeling.

"I mean, not entirely sure how much we'd be able to repair her... Especially considering she likely wouldn't recognize anyone here, at least without attacking or just in general going crazy..." Mary commented with regards to the whole Danger situation. That is, until she noticed the elephant in the room, also known as what looked to be the ghost of Tony Stark in the room, considering he was dead in this reality. She was really confused as to how he was even there, since it really made no sense at all to her how he was even there.

"Sooooo... Everyone else is just as confused as me, at least we're all in the same boat with that one..."

Strange seemed to think for a moment, before he started using a bit of magic of some sort, casting a spell. "I see... That is rather unfortunate... Though I will clarify that he is no ghost..." He was being a bit vague about everything though, which was getting a bit annoying. "Oh, almost forgot, was going to go let people out of the mirror dimension wasn't I?" He swirled a sling ring portal, and Lance ended up stepping out by Runa.

"Well that was fun," Lance commented, before he looked around and actually noticed that everyone else from their group was with them now, and also the ghostly looking Tony Stark. "Sooo... What's with the ghost Tony and why is he that weird red color?"

"Yeah, we have no idea at the moment since Strange has yet to say one way or the other what he is, since based on his previous statement, he probably knows."

"I mean, colors seem to mean a lot when you think about it, and mostly I've noticed red tends to be associated with reality manipulations or something similar... Like Wanda's powers, the reality stone... The weird wormhole thing that we got yanked through that ended with us being here... That sort of thing, might be a coincidence, but it's just a thought."

"You are somewhat correct, I have a bit of a theory as to what he is more then a definitive answer, as there has never been such an occurrence, but I could see it as having happened now."

"Care to share with the rest of us?" Mary couldn't help but ask, since she was getting a little bit annoyed at Strange somewhat withholding any sort of information. However, that was going to have to wait a moment though, as the ghost Tony Stark (or whatever he was) decided to sort of ignore Guin, and more or less zeroed in now on Pietro's existence in the room.

"And you! What the hell are you doing around here? You can't be trusted and shouldn't be around here or anywhere near my kid!" he snapped, clearly annoyed with Pietro's existence.

Aaaaaaand there is the continuation of people hating me for existing in this reality. That's fun. Anyway it is a bit weird having your dad yell at me or get annoyed with me so yay for that.

"To answer the question before he decided to interrupt us. Fairly certain he's got what likely would be considered a fate worse then death. He's caught between realities, and unable to truly interact with them. Basically he can watch and see everything that is going on, however there is no potential way to come back from it... Rather unfortunate. That would also explain how he easily knows what's been going on in this reality. My theory is that the fabric of reality is weakening which is what is allowing him to appear before us now."

Bethany turned to look at Runa asking what a Force Ghost was she forgot for a moment that Runa probably never seen Star Wars since she had been with them. "It's something from a movie series called Star Wars, Guin really likes it and it's pretty good." Bethany answered her as she looked over at the ghost of Tony and then over at Strange as he explained what was actually happening.

"So, not really dead Tony just a reality trapped version of him got it." Bethany said as she leaned back slightly, she sighed slightly as she heard Tony snapping at Pietro was kind of entertaining. "Well your counterpart is a little bit of an asshole when we encountered him." Bethany told Pietro as she turned to look at Tony. "So how and why are you here now then?" She asked him.

Ed got thinking. About Stark and about the whole thing happening to them. A nice answer would be that what happened to Stark was tied to what happened to them. But he doubted it. Even if it was an interesting development.

"Is there a way to pull him into this reality properly?" If Strange had access to what he called the Mirror Dimension, why not be able to pull people from other ones too? His question was more a generalized one to everyone in the group rather than pointed at Strange. He wasn't certain about the Strange from this reality. Ed had decided to be untrusting here. Knowing that he couldn't make assumptions of people based on what he knew about them from their reality.

A vague explanation gave clarity to why Tony was here. It wasn’t really him but a ghost, trapped in the in-between. Antoinette found that fascinating but kept that fact to herself as she listened to the others.
”I wonder if someone sent him…” she said, after Lance made the colour connection. He also didn’t seem pleased that Guin was with Pietro.
Bethany questioned Tony and Edus was interested in bringing Tony fully into this reality. Antoinette wasn’t sure that was a good idea. If Tony wasn’t meant to be here, bringing him back might off balance some things. Not to mention his apparent dislike of Pietro. Antoinette wasn’t interested in having another fighting match like the one that had sent Lance and the Hulk into the mirror dimension.

Runa Baldurdattir & Guin Stark

Location: New York City Defenders HQ
Skills: Telepathy

Guin's sadness over having not seen her father in so long was then tinged with annoyance. He was ignoring her. He was berating Pietro, telling him that he shouldn't be anywhere near her; yet Tony couldn't even spare a look in her direction. The annoyance and sadness mixed to light a small angry flame inside of her. Why would Tony talk to Pietro and not her? She knew things had gone horribly for her counterpart in this world, but still, the Guin of this Earth was still a person. She wasn't some object to be argued over. She clenched her fist in irritation. Strange explained his theory as to what was happening with Tony - that he was trapped outside and between reality somehow. "Sounds like a problem for a fucking wizard, then," Guin said, her chin trembling ever so slightly, as she was torn between crying or screaming - or both.

"If reality is getting so weak, weak enough he can appear, then you should be able to drag his ass back here," Guin reasoned. She didn't know though if Tony would want to be alive again in this world. It seemed like a shit fest. Guin didn't even know if she would want to exist in this world if she were him. Tony, Guin said telepathically into Tony's mind.

What?

Guin's left eye twitched slightly. She hated that he was playing dumb. Is there a reason you fucking ignored me? Or am I just multiversal trash to you?

Dealing with other things at the moment like finally being able to yell at everyone else!!!!! he responded, sounded annoyed at this point.

"Actually, I just realized - I don't care," Guin said. She didn't want to deal with any of these people, and the Force Ghost Tony seemed like he just wanted to yell at all the men in the room, as if Guin wasn't capable of making her own choices and taking care of herself. Guin then walked out the door and back into the alleyway Lance, Annie, and she had landed in earlier - and Guin kept on walking, intent on blowing off some steam and having a moment to herself. Well, and Amidala - the little lemur had followed her on out.

Meanwhile, back inside with the group, Runa was glad to see Lance returned from the Mirror Dimension - although she was a bit concerned as to where Banner was, as he hadn't emerged just yet. Perhaps he just hadn't calmed down quite yet. The realization that Tony Stark was trapped between worlds was rather grim. Runa wondered privately whether or not the real solution would be to find a way to end his pain and suffering, should a rescue prove impossible. And then, for almost no reason at all that Runa could understand, Guin mouthed off and left. "So dramatic..." Runa murmured, a little confused. She would have thought Guin would have been pleased to see Tony - well, a Tony.

"Perhaps if we combine our magics, the three of us might be able to free him," Runa suggested then, looking at Strange and Klara. She pulled a rune from her bag - raido, the rune for journeys. It seemed as good a center as any. "If the veil is truly weak, then we should be able to manage it - and return him to a form of flesh and blood." There was always the possibility of using her reality warping powers, but if reality was being so fragile, Runa was worried that she might do more harm than good.

"Unfortunately... No, there isn't. Since it has been so long, he's likely been scattered across multiple universes, but because reality in this one has a thinner veil, he's able to appear... Not entirely sure how long this will last either... There is a very real chance that he could disappear again in a few moments." Strange responded, shaking his head slightly at the suggestions of pulling him back through.

"Well we should still try shouldn't we?" Klara interjected.

"Doing so will likely cause a bigger disturbance and rift in reality then what has already been apparent. More damage would occur."

"So... Can't do anything about it..." Mary wasn't too sure how the whole situation worked, but if there wasn't much they could do, then there wasn't anything that could be done. She didn't like that there wasn't much that could be done about it though. This was a bit of a sad situation, since as Strange had said, Tony had suffered a fate that could be considered worse then death, and she couldn't help but pity him really for it.

"Guin wait!" Stark ended up saying, calling out to her, before seemingly disappearing from everyone else's sight.

"...Guess he really wasn't able to appear to us for long then..."

"So now what?" Lance said, seemingly about to continue on with his words, before he seemingly froze, not saying anything immediately. His eyes darted around the room for a moment. It looked like for a moment he was panicking over something, but it wasn't apparent what. Instead of saying anything else, he just left the room entirely, except unlike Guin he didn't head out of the building, he headed into what looked to be another room.

"Well that was weird... Anyway I'm going to go follow after Guina..." Pietro said, before heading off.

"...Ok, that just goes more hand in hand with all of the other weird stuff that has been going on... Um, we need to see about getting the ship out still... So whoever is wanting to go pull the ship out of the lake, probably should get going, the rest of us can see about going to Stark Tower and see what might be there that we can use... Hopefully anyway..." she was really starting to feel like crap, almost like she was feeling sick or something. Her skin went a bit paler then it usually was in general really.

Outside in the alley, Guin would seemingly be alone. That is, for only a moment, before Stark appeared in front of her. "Guin, look I'm sorry alright? I know you aren't from this reality, but you are still my Penguin, no matter what reality... Just, had a lot of anger, considering what happened in this reality... And well, to you too... I just... Kind of blame myself for not being able to be there for you... Just sitting there, only able to watch... I couldn't do anything to help you... I'm sorry..." with those last words, the sentence seemingly fading, as he too seemingly disappeared from view entirely.

Pietro appeared a moment after Stark disappeared, walking up to Guin, "Uh... Guina? Are you okay?" he asked her, clearly concerned with her more or less just sort of heading out of the building without looking back in general.
