Who ordered all the water?

[That would be coming from the rather damp-looking Braig, currently sitting on what looks like it might have once been part of a door. He really didn't need this today, even if he had been out looking for new worlds.]

Wish I knew.

[That coming from a white-haired teen hovering nearby - yes, hovering, a winged jetpack at his back. He's also got a slight, curious look on his face.]

[youstillneedme.livejournal.com]

[That jetpack is... interesting. But there's a slight smile of recognition all the same.]

Heya, squirt.

[lower-case-x.livejournal.com]

[He blinks. Laughs. There's only one Braig he knows who'd...]

Hey, it is you, then? This is great! - And I'm probably making no sense. Uh.

[youstillneedme.livejournal.com]

Not a bit. You wanna try explaining?

[lower-case-x.livejournal.com]

Okay - um. [He pulls in closer, takes a breath.] This is - kind of a world that's outside our own? Outside all of them. Outside space and time. ... It's not usually this wet.

[youstillneedme.livejournal.com]

[There's a moment of silence, and then he nods.]

An anomaly in space-time, am I right?

[lower-case-x.livejournal.com]

That's just about it, yes. A - hm, multiversal convergence point, maybe?

[youstillneedme.livejournal.com]

Right. So we've got what? Universes and times converging?

[lower-case-x.livejournal.com]

Mhm. All different universes, all different timelines, all different points in those timelines linking here - well, some are more densely connected than others, but that's pretty much it.

Sounds like fun.

[ Suddenly: A woman rose from the water, right beside Braig's makeshift raft.

She's too distracted to notice him because she's coughing out water because she nearly drowned, and drowning is not a pretty thing. Cough cough, slightly messed up lipstick: get. ]

[youstillneedme.livejournal.com]

[what. what is this?]

Need a hand?

[temptsfate.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I'd like that.

[ She hasn't met any doubles yet, so this is going to be new -- ]

[youstillneedme.livejournal.com]

[Neither has he!

Still he driiifts over close enough to actually offer a hand.]

[temptsfate.livejournal.com]

[ She grabs it, and then pretty much kneels over when she gets in another coughing fit. Yeah, the lab she was in flooded high enough.

Like the clothes? ]

[youstillneedme.livejournal.com]

[They look familiar. But he'll wait until she's done coughing first.]

[temptsfate.livejournal.com]

[ There we go. She took in a deep breath, and then sat up right before looking at him. ]

Thanks -- [ A pause. She tilted her head to the side. ] -- twin?

[youstillneedme.livejournal.com]

Something like that, I'm guessing.

[temptsfate.livejournal.com]

[ Ah wait, her memory's coming baaack. She squeezes water out of her hair. ]

You're one of those doubles I keep on hearing about! [ She smirked. ] Nice to finally meet one of you boys.

[x-roadnot-taken.livejournal.com]

[Hey, he knows that voice! He peeks over the headboard of the bed he's floating on.] Braig? Is that you? [He has to ask because you can't be sure in this place.]

[youstillneedme.livejournal.com]

As if I'd really be anyone else.

[x-roadnot-taken.livejournal.com]

[Well it seems like it's the Braig he knows, at least.] You can't be too certain around here, actualy. [He lays his arms on the headboard and rests his chin atop them, watching you.] I've seen a few of you since I got here.

[youstillneedme.livejournal.com]

[Braig just offers a grin at that.]

Yeah, I've been hearing about those.

[x-roadnot-taken.livejournal.com]

So then the question is, are you the Braig I know or another double?

[youstillneedme.livejournal.com]

I'm the one you know.
