hyperkinesia: (We could rule out a few places.)

one ☢ video

[ The device turns on to a man looking just a hint disheveled, but overall he looks very mild and gathered. He's taken his time to calm down by now, after all. ]

Ah, hey, so I read the... [ He lifts the pamphlet and waves it a little, though not at all dismissively. ] ... this little brochure. Very helpful, actually, so thanks to whoever wrote it. And yeah, you guessed it, I'm new.

[ It might be a little difficult to tell whether or not he's being honest in his appreciation, but this time he really is. ]

So. Parallel universes, who would've thought. Guess stranger things could've happened. [ Except not really. But it's nice to think that. ] I won't bore any of you with questions, I got the gist of it by now.

But I'd like to know if there are any experts out there, if I can pick your brain. Not just on alternate realities, but space and time traveling, wormholes, portals, pocket universes - which is what I'm assuming this all is.

[ He sets the brochure aside and rubs a hand briefly down his face. ]

Because here's the thing - how does a place like this even happen? This is tiny, unbelievably so. Even if opening a wormhole that can actually travel across different dimensions without any visible devices or power source, how can it happen with several? Because for not just one or two universes, but dozens or hundreds of them to be converging here, and from fluctuating times and points within them, this place should be... I don't know, torn into pieces, disintegrating entirely. No laws of physics can explain this, and just - you know what, just spare me the speech on how physics don't work the same way here.

[ He's trying to keep it simple for the common listener, but just in case he didn't succeed, he adds as a final thought. ] This place is impossible.

[ Not that he won't try to make some sense of it, and for now at least seeing if he can find someone who'll help him with that seems like the best option. That, and finding a quiet corner where he can stay. ]

Thanks for listening. And for answering, if you do. [ He hesitates for a moment before he finally decides to add. ] Name's Bruce Banner, by the way.

[ Not that he has a lot of hope that he'll find someone here he knows, but... well, yesterday he'd have said something like this would be hilariously impossible. So who's to say. ]

[Selina had a long night last night. A very long night, one that involved crawling over rooftops]

...Physics don't work that way here.

[She shrugs, stifling a yawn. A cat crawls in and out of the video frame.]

[Dick might be a monster that views humans as a food source, but even he can appreciate the really smart ones.]

Easy there tiger, careful with that intelligence. It's sharp.

[Some people just have that spark, Bruce. He'd be loathe to put it out. That and yeah, eating would be a problem.]

If you say so. Can't say I know much about what you're asking for though. I'm sure someone here will know about wormholes.

[The scientific frustration is enough to get Pepper's attention even before the introduction. She's already making note to point this out to Tony if he doesn't see it himsself, when the speaker says his name.]

Doctor Bruce Banner? [Whom Tony had been so very fond of after New York. She smiles, wondering if she should feel more guilty than glad to see a friendly face.] I'm Pepper Potts, of Stark Industries. [She starts off with the more formal introduction, since at present Pepper has no idea what Bruce has already experienced in their timeline.]

Oh! Hello, Dr. Banner! I don't think we've been introduced, but you want wormholes, I'm your specialist. I'm Jane Foster, by the way.

[She lives to serve. Stifling a yawn she holds up the cat, appears to consider it, before lifting the video]

I think so, as far as I know. [another yawn] I may have dozed off during physics 101 but we don't seem to be floating off into space. There's a lot of guys here asking questions like yours though Mr Banner.

You'd be surprised. So you think this place is some kind of a crossroads?

[Just grasping at straws really, he took over a CEO not a physicist.]

[BEAM] I'm making the best of being here. So far, I've confirmed this is a pocket universe, or close to one anyways, one with a nexus to other universes. Tony Stark's here, by the way. He's been busy. Oh! IS there someplace I can do a face to face with you? Got some things that don't go over the network very easily.
handing: (believe me--i'm interested)

[personal profile] handing 2014-05-05 02:34 pm (UTC)(link)
Please, call me Pepper. [Formality doesn't feel at all fitting given that he's one of those rare few Tony considers a genuine friend.] And the pleasure's mine, with equal agreement about the circumstances. Tony's spoken very highly of you. He's here too, by the way. A number of us are.
imnotsure: (gr.)

...That's kind of a sad attitude. [she stifles another yawn] the floating off into space part.

...You like magic tricks? [nodnod. Time to at least sort of cheer the guy up.] It's a pretty cool one.

[she's excited for science, okay, and she's heard all about your work with with radiation.]

That sounds perfect. I'll find you.

[You are a barrel full of laughs Bruce]

Brace yourself man, I'm about to rock your world. Can you see me okay? [This reason is two fold. Picking up the video, she pads her way across the room - it's clean thankfully to point it at the closet]

Watch okay?

[addressing the closet she tosses her head] How about a cup of coffee sweetheart.

[silence from the closet, then when she opens it - look! A steaming hot cup of coffee.]

...Cool right? Sorry, I needed one. You're way too awake.

[Just watches this display with some amusement, as if he's watching someone putting on a performance.]

Pocket universes. So you could say that in theory, Heaven, Hell and Purgatory are pocket universes? Though I'll be honest with you, Banner. I doubt you can define something as a pocket universe if it's not pocketed in something.
