Has anyone else had any luck with time travel with this place? Or tested any theories related to the space-time continuum?

Knowing if you've broken any ground would help a lot.

For now, the name's Nathaniel. Nate's good, too.

Heavily Encrypted to the Original Young Avengers (AKA not the New Moore ones)

I considered hiding the moment I got all that explained to me, especially when I saw you were here. It's a lot easier to hide when I have somewhere to go. Something to change. I've got my armor, but not much else in the way of helping with this situation here. I've tried a few tricks already, and I'm just getting massive blockage. I wanted to contact you with good news if I ever did. That was the idea, anyway. It doesn't look like that's going to happen anytime soon.

So, I'll start with what I need to start with. ... What I'm supposed to start with.

I'm sorry.

I don't know how long it's been for any of you, but that wasn't the way to go. That wasn't the way I was supposed to make that promise. It didn't sound like much of a promise, did it?

A promise. An apology. They aren't enough. It's the most I can do until I show that I won't be ... myself. At least it looks like I have some time off to think about it.

Hello, Nathaniel! I'm the Doctor.

Lots of theories. Not a lot of answers. Although it seems to be working better for you young ones than it has for me, so you never know!

[badnewsboy]

Ah! You're the first new arrival who hasn't mentioned the "fake" thing. I owe you a star, but all I have is "you tried."

[escapeplan]

Just "the Doctor"?

... And as for "young ones," what do you mean? How do we do it?

[escapeplan]

It didn't seem as important as my question.

[hawkingbird]

Nathaniel!

What's the last thing you remember?

[escapeplan]

Hi, Kate.

[allons_y_alonso]

That's right! The definite article!

Although there are two of me here.

Do you know, they've been a bit skittish at letting me poke about? Maybe they'll show you, and you can tell me, and then I'll get everything up and running again!

Leaving after Cassie died.

I guess I could've been clearer.

[escapeplan]

Or there might be a reason why they're not trusting you in the first place. You think that could be it?

[private]

[hawkingbird]

It's okay. It's just, sometimes people appear from different points in time.

How are you holding up? Are you... doing any better?

[allons_y_alonso]

Nonsense! I'm a teacher! And Dave from a different timeline came to a tea party I held; if that's not trusting I'm not sure what is.

[badnewsboy]

The "you tried" star is better.

[private]

[escapeplan]

I'd know that better than anyone.

And ... not good. I'm here now, though.

How're you?

[escapeplan]

I'll make sure I don't succeed next time so it's more fitting.

[escapeplan]

There's a group of teenagers back home that just doesn't like adults. They're out on the west coast. That might be it.

I've been doing my best not to think about it since I arrived.

It's worked really well.

[private]

[hawkingbird]

Too well, sometimes.

[badnewsboy]

Loki!

[escapeplan]

You want to give me some tips on how you've managed? I could use them.

[escapeplan]

Loki? As in ... Loki?

[allons_y_alonso]

Well. I suppose it's possible.

[hawkingbird]

LOKI!! Oh my god, really not the moment.

...At least it's not "Surprise!", though.

[escapeplan]

But maybe that isn't it. How do you travel, anyway? Tech or powers?

[badnewsboy]

Mister Loki sounds better.
