[After a long day at work, there's nothing quite like coming home and doing a spot of gardening. Or at least, that would have been the case up until the front door led not to the familiar comforts of home but somewhere that is distinctly not, leaving him looking as confused as he ever does (not much, or at least not noticeably) with his just-recently-bought rose cradled gently in his arm.

Not quite as planned.]

((So I heard you like soem superhero AU? Further details are in the profile.))

What a pleasant surprise.

But slightly inconvenient all the same.

[Hard to put the rose to soil in here. And then there's his dog to consider...]

[The roses are what catch Nero's attention. He wanders a little closer, sneakily, stealthily - hm... This man may be massive, but he's not... enormous.

Let's try a greeting.]

... Hello.

[He's nice enough, for all he's a bit imposing looking.]

Hello.

[ffff. When you're nine feet tall and a cannibal, then perhaps you'll be imposing looking to this one.]

Are you lost as well?

True.

[ he eyes the flower for a moment, then continues ]

I do believe there is a garden here.

[That's quite a high standard he's got there...]

You could say that.

You wouldn't happen to know where?

[Azul leaves a lasting impression.

... he eyes the roses.]

Those will wilt without water, correct?

They will.

Would you like some assistance finding some?

[Read: You look strong, so how about you travel with me just in case.]

Well, I've only just arrived, but I did notice it in passing; it should be but a few halls down from this location.

[There's a pause as he thinks that over, and then a nod.]

It would be appreciated.

[He's perfectly capable of fending for himself, but he has no idea what the place is like, after all.]

[A nod.]

And the others?

[By which he likely means to ask if there's anyone else from their world here.]

[This one's got a similar mentality going on... oh well. He turns around, hands on his weapons - just in case, and starts off.]

I believe this is a dressing room... are you new?

Thus far I've encountered both Nocturne and the Gambler. Unfortunately, that is all.

More then I would have thought. Is there a name for this place?

Yes.

[glances behind him. Hmm..]

You may see doubles of people you know, or of yourself. It's really rather strange...

[For that, Nero gets a slight eyebrow raise.]

Clones?

Alternates. Different universes. Sometimes the same one, but from a later timeline...

I see.

[That could be useful, down the road.]

Evidently it is referred to as the 'dressing room', although a more accurate term would be a multidimensional nexus.

Some may be hostile.

[oh hey... this looks like a kitchen.]

I see.

If we are here I expect the heroes to follow shortly, if they have not done so already.
