ah. movie-worthy romance. what're you gonna do when you gotta go home?
[because that's the goal, right? get back to their respective universes, back to their lives. he's got a date with a girl. you know, provided that he can convince her to take him back and all.]
[he doesn't think anything of it, really. for all he knows, daisy might've gotten caught up at work or is making food or perhaps he's crossed an invisible line that acquaintances aren't supposed to cross. it wouldn't be his first foray into pissing someone off.]
that's... interesting. you're not saying you'd go down with the ship, but why do you want to stay?
what's so bad about where you came from that this place is somehow better? stuff's not so great in new york but i can't imagine calling anywhere else home.
[because even if he and mj never patch things up, he'd still rather be back there.]
[ she does know, but there's something particularly damning about putting it down in black and white. or... digital black and white. ]
it's complicated, i guess i got spoiled for some stuff back home that i don't particularly want to go back to and this is (as crazy as it sounds) probably the most normal life i've ever lived i lived in a van and in a bunk on a secret government agency's plane and on a tiny cot in an orphanage. i never had a home or a 9-5 job or a life before.
it's just hard to give that up. i never thought i'd get it.
[that's... yeah he can dig it. life for peter's never been 100% stable. money had always been tight living with aunt may, college, and beyond. it's tempting when presented with those things that someone wants. no, craves. and a normal life was definitely something he'd wished for more times than he can recall.]
huh. spoilers. so someone from your home world but a different time told you about the future.
did you ever consider that this person while someone you know might not have been from your world no matter how much he/she was similar to the person you knew. the multiverse is infinite and so on.
not trying to say you should give up your cushy job and happiness. just some food for thought.
maybe the world you came from isn't as set in stone as you think it is. or maybe you can drag your boyfriend with you. if i've somehow mananged to make it here and not have my atoms disintegrate by now, maybe he can come with you.
yeah that's always fun. i've met a lot of alternate universe people too.
[the weirdest was seeing his basically perfect blond self. thanks for not being alive to make him feel inferior r.i.peter.]
sounds. complicated that's for sure. but in my experience, you don't really get to do nothing. life's got a way of making you realize that ignoring the giant elephant is just going to end up with that elephant stepping on your toes.
ha. if you do that, please tell me what happens. i wouldn't envy your food bill OR all the cleanup you'd have to take care of. at least you could make bank selling biofuel...
goes by the name of jyn? yes. we've met. twice, actually. she stabbed me with a fork when we first arrived at the safehouse. and she met my superhero alter-ego in a dream.
she was much nicer to me when i had the mask on. you should tell her that terraforming jupiter is a lost cause, but clearly there's something there worth investigating because they keep trying.
is it weapons? is it minerals? is it a secret penal colony? who knows.
[is she fan club president because this could be a problem.]
and yet she's still on that project rather than moving on to more interesting subject matters but maybe she's just really interested in space? i do seem to recall her talking about different species from all over the galaxy
tl;dr aliens came to my earth a bajillion years ago, made some gmo alien-people hybrids with superpowers, fucked off when they didn't like what they made gmo people had babies, blah blah, passed down the weird kree supergenes ta-da, part alien

i don't really want to
i want other people to have the chance, but i think i'd rather stay
i haven't told anybody that before
no subject

best of both?
no subject
fitz and i have history, though. i've met his alternate universe self before.
[ gotta love s4 ]
i don't know what i'm gonna do, tbh
it's not just him. how do you leave people behind who have become your family? how do you make people choose?
it feels like it'd be easier not to choose at all and stay.

[ aos s7: daisy johnson becomes a zookeeper ]
no subject
i wouldn't envy your food bill OR all the cleanup you'd have to take care of.
at least you could make bank selling biofuel...
[she's not already in charge of a zoo??]
no subject
how do you feel about shoveling elephant shit?
[ she could make him the elephant keeper ]
no subject
i've got a job now thank you very much
one i'm overqualified for at pulsar
no subject
my roommate's over there yelling about terraforming jupiter
have you met her? small, vaguely british accent, would stab you as soon as look at you
no subject
yes. we've met. twice, actually.
she stabbed me with a fork when we first arrived at the safehouse.

[ daisy luh-huh-huvs her ]
i would tell her but i'm pretty sure she already knows. i've heard her yelling about it in the bath once or a thousand times by now.
[ and daisy Doesn't Care ]
no subject

no subject
i mean, she's from space, so that checks out
[ surprise, she's an alien. kind of. she's human. ]
no subject
are you from space too?
because your sense of humor feels really 21st century earth
no subject
i mean, i'm technically part alien, but i definitely picked up my circa-2000 and late lingo the old fashioned way
no subject
no subject
gmo people had babies, blah blah, passed down the weird kree supergenes
ta-da, part alien
[ isn't she a great teacher ]
no subject
i also like the 'blah blah' bit
so what you're telling me is that these aliens are basically earth's deadbeat parents?
yeesh. and i thought i had commitment issues.
no subject
i'm not a giant fan of being experimented on, either, so this place is a real fun barrel of relive-your-favorite-traumas

or wondering when your atoms are going to split and you'll poof out of existence.
