oh yeah i kinda kept meaning to ask you about the pumpkin

i mean obviously it was super important to you? but i guess i'm curious about why

and uh

no no i don't go to school

i work at FEAR and STRANGE and school kinda seems like a waste of time when i'm in this super weird dreamworld and it doesn't really matter when i wake up you know?

[4thwaller]

I just really like pumpkin pie????



It has a similar ugly bump that the pumpkin my wife and I carved our first Halloween together.
and now you know I'm a sappy Hallmark sentimental romantic.
I buy cards for every event, believe me.
it reminded me of her.
I guess I'm still a little messed up over being the reason she died.
even if I fixed it.

What is FEAR and why does it sound like something someone as sweet as you shouldn't be involved in
Are we going to have a say no to drugs and cults worshiping succubi from hell talk?

[nerded]

i mean pumpkin pie is also a valid reason but i'm glad i know the real reason why

i didn't know you were married

i'm also so sorry she died ... or ... not died? you fixed it?

FEAR is kind of like this world's avengers i guess? like they're here to learn more about this world and the monsters and protect people from them

totally non-culty i swear!! 😱

I'm more of an apple pie kinda guy myself but pumpkin will do in a pinch
I guess I'm glad you do too

I didn't know me being married was something I was supposed to disclose immediately when meeting someone.
yeah Vanessa
she's great
greater than great
One of the really good ones, you know?

Yeah.
some really bad people killed her
I wasn't fast enough to stop them the first time
but luckily I met a guy from the future that had a time doohicky thing
it's all really complicated
but she's okay now

oh em gee how do I join
can I join
I mean I don't have my swords
or knives
or guns
or throwing stars
but I'm really good at not dying and saving people
I'm basically an Avenger back home
other than the fact that Tony Stark keeps telling me no
I'm like on the same level as Daredevil but cooler
and not blind

[nerded]

yeah of course you can join!

i don't have weapons either but i'm pretty good with the whole research part and if you're good at saving people you'd be super necessary to the team

i feel like the tony stark from my home would totally let you join the avengers if you knew him

he's pretty awesome

[ Even if, okay yeah, Spider-Man might have turned down the opportunity to join the Avengers right around the time Peter wound up here.

Welp. ]

but for FEAR i think really all you have to do is sign up

[4thwaller]

ew research. I'm not good with the brain-y stuff.

[ Sure, he can gather intel on people, map out escape routes and pay attention to details most people miss. But he is not very good at the nerdy dirty stuff. ]

I have a suspicion that I know the Tony Stark from your home. Weirdly short, facial hair, Robert Downey Jr. looking motherfucker?

sign up where???

[nerded]

huh? i mean yeah he's got facial hair

he's not tall like captain america but

uh

idk who robert downey jr is


but anyway, you know what i'm

not actually sure

mr stark kinda recruited me when i first got here

maybe i can just get you in too

[4thwaller]

I wouldn't say no to that
but I don't wanna get you in trouble either
how about we start with those milkshakes tho

[nerded]

nah i won't get into trouble

i think FEAR could use more people like you

but milkshakes sound awesome
