Where is here and why does it look exactly like NYC?

[shotup]

[Leaning up against a wall or something, like this is no big deal.]

It's called the City, which has to be the most nondescript place-name ever invented. And it's just like NYC except the streets are different and some of the skyline's changed. You know, just your typical sci-fi alternate reality crap.

[imaginate]

Great. Don't tell me there's time travel too.

[shotup]

Only sort of. The timeline is all messed up. I'm missing about four years of time somehow.

[imaginate]

What? What the hell happened?

[shotup]

I blame the porter, but I honestly don't know how it happened. What I can tell you is that G.A. 2 had some stories to tell that I had zero recollection of.

[imaginate]

Huh. Good ones? [Seeing as you know, your life sucks bro.]

[shotup]

Relatively speaking, yeah. I heard something about a wedding, which is nice. Insane, but nice. [He didn't hear any of the deets though...]

So, what's the last thing you remember? And spare me the gag about making salsa.

[imaginate]

[Aw dude, he had a great joke about the salsa. Oh well.] I've been off-planet for a long time, Roy. I get occasional postcards from Hal. [The last of which told him Ollie was dead after the wedding, so...

He shrugs.] But I heard about the wedding, so I guess I'm not too far ahead of you.

[shotup]

That's convenient. The other weird deal is the alternate versions of people you know.

[imaginate]

Please don't tell me we have a female Superman.

[shotup]

Not that I know of. But there's a female Martian running around.

[imaginate]

Not J'onn?

[shotup]

Nope. Her name is M'gann.

[imaginate]

[Well, it's nice to know J'onn isn't the last Martian.] Anyone else?

[shotup]

There's this wacky version of Wally West around somewhere.

[imaginate]

Okay, in what universe does 'wacky' and 'Wally' not go in the same sentence?

[Maaaaay be 90% serious about this.]

[shotup]

Look, I've known that brat since he was in his training tights. Believe me when I say this new Wally is wacky. Or whacked. Whatever.

[imaginate]

[Whoa whoa weird Titans feelings are a go.] I'll have to see for myself. [Pause.] No one else?

[shotup]

Everyone else is people we know from home. You know, regular ones. [A beat.] Did you know Jason Todd is alive?

[imaginate]

Yeah, I found out a few months ago. [Doesn't like the guy at all, and it shows.]

[shotup]

[A long suffering sigh. He gets it, dude. That guy is a douche.]

That's basically it. People come and go. People like Jason Todd.

[imaginate]

What'd he do to you?

[shotup]

Nothing. He's just a tool.

[He liked babby!Jason back in the day, but this grown up version is just... grody.]

[imaginate]

[Derisive noise.] You can say that again.
