First Post: Henry McCoy, the Beast

OOM: Pre-Milliways


Hank bounds into the room feet first with the grace and precision only a nearly 600 lbs. cat-like mutant can manage, landing in a crouch with one claw on the ground. He quickly rises to his feet. His eyes widen in surprise as he watches the room, seemingly trying to see it all, and everyone, at the same time.

With an absentmindedly look, his fingers press over a large device in his hands then places it in a pouch on his belt.

Drawing aside from the door to a nearby table he looks around the room, eagerly taking in everything. His eyes glow in interest as he sees the bar and how people react to it. He then catches sight of the observation window. His eyes widen and a smile comes to his face. It is the smile of a child who has fouind a new toy.

"Oh my stars and garters! Breathtaking!"

He stretches like a cat, an almost seven foot tall, and almost 700 pound blue-cat- the shape of a man,a dn then casts his gaze around, his mind racing in amazement.

"IMagine a ball of many different colored strands of yarn whose threads touch occassionally if folded the right way. That is the multiverse. Each thread is a universe, which look the same except for size and color..."

Hank ponders for a moment.

"SOme rules work in some worlds... Some worlds are so altered in some way that the same rules dont work there... it can be evry confusing even for me."

He isnt being prideful here, just honest.

".... I wouldn't think the rules of such things would change." A quiet sigh and Svava shakes her head. "Does the math change, then? The rules for numbers? It would seem much the same, then."

[inquisitivehero]

"Sometimes... but sicne math was written for the express purpose to define reality, it rarely changes."

*Smiles at her*

"... Those still do sound like puzzling worlds, Hank." Svava shakes her head, bemused. "What is yours like, then? Science, magic, both, neither? Number six hundred something, you said."

[inquisitivehero]

"Number 616. It has both, though science mostly rules it. But I soemtimes think that is because few know or believe in Magic on my world. My wqorld is a Earth inhabited by a great many super-beings. It soemtimes seems they outnumber those who are not super."

[skjaldmeyjar.livejournal.com]

"Superbeings? Like Heros?" The capitalization can be heard in her voice.

"Heros, sons and children of the gods, usually?"

[inquisitivehero]

"Heros, villians, Gods, aliens, robots, interdimentsional and time-traveling masochists and mercenaries and other such. Most heros on my world arent related to the Gods, though I have m,et and hung out with a couple of Gods. Good sorts, they were."

Svava just.... stares at Hank for quite a few long moments.

"It sounds a lot like Milliways here. Um, which gods?"

[inquisitivehero]

"Thor, Heracles, Isis, Seth, Cronus, Sif, Balder, Ydunn, and a few others. It gets hard to remember all the various names one meets. Our world is very like Milliways... just more spread out."

[skjaldmeyjar.livejournal.com]

"... Sif, Balder, and Ydunn- Idun? Those of Asgard, the Aesir were there?" Svava bites her lip, then sighs, looking down at her glass of lemonade.

"Different worlds, maybe. Like Loki and Yamino who are here... Specially the year."

[inquisitivehero]

"Thor, Sif, Balder and Ydunn are all from Asgard. I have known them for a few years."

He sighs and smiles.

"Undoubtedly from different worlds..."

[skjaldmeyjar.livejournal.com]

A faint, sad smile as Svava keeps watching her drink. "Undoubtedly. Midgard of my Nine Worlds wasn't like your Earth, and... Well. All the Nine Worlds, including Asgard, is gone now."

Her shoulders twitch in a shrug, and Svava raises her glass to take a sip of lemonade. "So... its unlikely they're the ones I would know from my world."

[inquisitivehero]

"Mayhap not, yet, this is Milliways, adn who knows what magic shall happen? Cheer yourself fair maid and know this, You have a friend in Hank McCoy, and never more need you be alone."

Hank's eyes shine in sincerity and warmth and there is a he faintest sound like a cat's purr.

[skjaldmeyjar.livejournal.com]

A quiet chuckle, and Svava looks back up to him. "Oh, I do know I'm not alone. I've made more friends here- near enough to family that I've ever known, then I've had before. I'm happy."

[inquisitivehero]

"And you have another friend in me. I must go to do some research but I would enjoy speaking with you again, if I may?"

(OOC: min if I friend you? we can arrange a time to talk in here easier that way.)

[skjaldmeyjar.livejournal.com]

"Oh, most certainly, Hank. I'm usually around- There's quite a few people that live here at Milliways, and I'm one of them. I'll see you next tie?"

[inquisitivehero]

Anytime, My dear lady!

[inquisitivehero]

(ooc: off to dinner and family time. Might be back tonight. If not, slowtime and continue more as we can, okay? Am enjoying this convo!)
