[ well golly who could this green woman be. she's walking and dressed in wow -- not a unitard though her hair is as huge as ever and she doesn't exactly look that happy. it's earlyish morning when she turns on the video ]

Wow, here again? Does my priorities mean nothing anymore? [ the corner of her mouth pulls and she sighs ] Right-o. So I'm She-Hulk. Shulkie. Jennifer Walters, former lawyer, bounty hunter, Avenger, Fantastic Four member, Defenders, SHIELD, Fantastic Force, Hero for Hire, Lady Liberator, aaaaaaand Fearsome Four. [ she's counting this all off on her fingers btw ]

It's a pleasure to meet whoever's still here. I already know how this all goes so no need to give me the rundown.

[ a beat as she just kind of rubs the back of her neck. ]

So, what's up?

Is that how long it's been?

[ because he can see that little exchange up there and he's curious. ]

Err, welcome back. I don't think we've met.

[gammas]

Back at home, anyways. I'm a professional everything-er. If there's a team, I've probably been on it.

Thanks! And we haven't.

[acclimatized]

Sounds heroic... and time consuming, I guess.

I'm John Watson.

[gammas]

A little bit but you know. Do what you gotta do.

[ a beat and then

heh ]

You're John Watson.

[ john presses his lips together and hums non-committally. ]

You've heard of me?

[gammas]

[ unfortunately she knows the wall should... probably go untouched. ]

Yeah. It's a pleasure to meet you, honey.

[acclimatized]

[ he has no idea about any of that -- he spends half of his lifetime in the dark. ]

Pleasure's... all mine.

[gammas]

So how's it been going here for you?

video;

[acclimatized]

There've been a few surprises here and there and a bit quiet at times, but pretty good. Can't really complain.

video;

[gammas]

Nothing extraordinary?

video;

[acclimatized]

Uh.. depends on what you mean by that.

[ because he isn't quite over the greeeeen thing yet. ]

[gammas]

Monster attacks, bombs, world-ending stuff, so on and so forth.

We were stuck in a time loop in February. Some people thought that was the end of the world.

video;

[gammas]

Wait, a time loop?

video;

[acclimatized]

The same day, repeated over and over again. It was all a bit much.

video;

[gammas]

Oh man. That must have been a nightmare.

video;

[acclimatized]

Yeah. Emotions ran high.

video;

[gammas]

How many people lost it?

video;

[acclimatized]

Erm... just one, to my knowledge.

video;

[gammas]

Yeah? What happened?

video;

[acclimatized]

He shot a hole in the wall.

video;

[gammas]

...Why?
