[The last few days have been repetitive, and they've also included adventures with Lokis. Plural. Downtime from that has generally included holing himself up and wondering why this is what his life has become. Hanging out with Lokis! Being the protective sort! Repetition. But the downtime also led to him trying to look into things. Barring having the proper instruments (and he does have some, he's started working on it), he's been looking at things from a different angle.

More specifically: he's been trying to figure out what's up with the AI. Time and space is definitely a million butterflies crushed right now, and that seems to be the obvious clue.

One he resolves it, he comes on and waves at everyone.][There's a beat as he figures out how to say this.]

Hi, everyone. I'm sure everyone's noticed the instability of things. I mean, unless you live under a rock. Is it warm under there? Did you nest and gather acorns? ... Okay, not why you're watching this.

I looked into the AI's transmissions. Which, well, I bet I'm not the only one, but I found that the transmissions are coming from Vandrova (that's the capital of the UE, for people under those cozy rocks) in the year 2742.

While I am not going to endorse time travel when time itself seems to be constantly flushing itself down the toilet, it might be a good idea to check it out.

There is a second part that I'm trying to decode right now, but it might be easier with more information on what's going on then.

[OOC information on this is here!!!]

So you're not gonna endorse it, but are you gonna go?

[They're not really said like fighting words. Jaime is convinced that they fucked up too, but unlike the Peters, can't say that he hasn't had a hand in it. He'll just have to accept his status as a screw-up.

He does, however, want to know who else is going to be there, because he's absolutely checking it out.]

I'm gonna stick around and work on this. I'm trusting everyone else to handle it, because even if I say "that's a bad idea," people are going to do it anyway.

Careful there, you're just asking for some equivalent of the "earth is really flat" contingent to come crawling out from under the rock.

The Earth's not flat?

I know it's harsh, but bear with me here. Because it's also not the center of the universe.

Now you're really lying!

Thanks for the heads-up. Unfortunately, even with the damage to the timestream - it's still the one advantage we have.

[voice]

[unmasking]

I think we'd be jumping ahead to call it an advantage right now.

[oldsoldiersneverdie]

It's far less of one than before - but we still can't face them in the here and now.

[unmasking]

No, it's definitely gotta be back then, but the implication here is iffy. It means we've still got to face them head on.
