He makes the blueprints and gives them to her.

She takes them and looks over them, then looks at him again. "Who have you talked to, there?"

Permalink

"Legend! And Hero! And Alexandria! They were really nice. ...probably because they wanted me to stay and be their superhero but still."

Permalink

She frowns. "It's very dangerous to do these things on your own. There is a lot of politics going on with new capes involved, and those people are even deeper in it, being so high up their organisations."

Permalink

"I guess they would be, yeah. But they were nice."

Permalink

"Just because someone's nice doesn't mean they're actually well-meaning," she explains. "Besides, it's a lot of pressure to put on someone to ask them to help with that monster so soon after they've faced another one."

Permalink

" - yeah, I guess. I shouldn't have snuck out, right?"

Permalink

"Right," she says, nodding. Then sighs. "How are you feeling? I was very worried when I couldn't wake you."

Permalink

"Okay. Hungry."

Permalink

"Do you want to go eat in the cafeteria with the others?"

Permalink

"Sure."

She opens the door and motions for him to follow her.

And the next time he checks for Contessa's messages, there'll be one saying, You will need to swear to believe for two hours whatever lie you're telling them, next time you get the chance—they will have someone who can detect lies nearby.

...mind-altering oaths are such a bad idea and if he believed those things most of his memories would be super confusing. 

...he could swear to believe he has cape powers that work that way and that he's not using his normal magic in this dimension on Contessa's advice for some reason. He thinks about wording carefully for a while and then whispers that to himself.

And then they get to the cafeteria and the mood is about the same as when he first arrived post-Behemoth.

Permalink

Gee, he wonders why. 

 

He sits down and eats.

"We should test this new development of your powers after this," Doctor Ximenes suggests.

Permalink

"Yeah, definitely."

Permalink

So he's led to Doctor Paulo Lira, who raises an eyebrow at him and asks wryly, "Been having adventures, have you?"

Permalink

"Yeah. Sorry. I know I should've stayed home."

Permalink

"Yeah." Someone knocks on the door, and Doctor Ximenes lets them in. It's a young man with glasses wearing a suit. "Oh, that's my assistant, he's gonna watch some of our tests, if that's alright?"

Permalink

"Sure. Hi!"

Permalink

    "Hello," the assistant greets him. "I'm Felipe Nogueira."

        "I shall leave you to it," Doctor Ximenes says, and leaves.

"So! Why don't you tell us about your adventures—and also I think Doctor Ximenes said you'd already met some capes in New York before coming here?" asks Doctor Paulo.

Permalink

"Yeah. Like I told her the first time I triggered there. And I was experimenting with my powers and I met Legend and Hero and Alexandria. I told them I was going to go to Brazil and put Säo Paulo back but they thought I should stay in America but I'm not from there so I came here and then I figured out the moving-between-mes thing and when I turned up back there they were really nice and happy to see me and I'd said I wanted to put New York back and they let me!"

Permalink

"How does the moving-between-yous thing work? And it looks like you can do it to other people, too?"

Permalink

"Yeah I think so I didn't know that until I tried it when the monster was attacking. I just - make a you where I want you to go and then it won't be a person but if you want you can - switch to it - and then the other you isn't a person. Legend said maybe I should get rid of the not-a-person ones with the unmaking because they're creepy and I tried that and it worked."
