And a Fine Hello to You, Too. (Alterna-Son)

Remi deNamor escaped out of Pier 4 as soon as he could feasibly do so without risking the ire of a pregnant redhead. Some days, he got overwhelmed by how different his life was going from what he planned when he left his home reality. It had been ostensibly to learn how worlds that were better off than his governed so he could bring that experience home. While he had enjoyed the adventures of being an Exile, he had never expected to be discarded into some reality with no mission and no way home.

The bronzed Atlantean went to the end of the pier and sat down. He watched waves lap against the pillars. The steady wet slap lulled him into introspection. His blue eyes stared out at nothing.

So anything that showed up near him would be a complete surprise.

"I get that it's serious business, but dude. We have to keep it light, because if we let ourselves get stressed over it? We'll all just probably fail. It's the theatre-break-a-leg mentality." He twiddled his thumbs for a moment. "Do we have an ATM on when these guys are arriving?" Pause. "ETA. I meant ETA."

Oh yeah. That bi-annual DNA test is inching closer to a monthly event. Jacob fought the urge to facepalm and let go of Ryan's shirt. "Any idea what we can do to neutralize the witch's power so she can't scramble our brains?"

He didn't mind a straight up fight, but he was a little concerned about having to face off against one of his teammates. Or all of them, if he happened to be the one who got charmed.

"I can probably deal with Bloodwitch," Mary offered. "Shape-shifter brains are usually too mercurial for telepaths to handle real well."
