Since we're probably going to be getting a clue soon, I figured we should set one of these up for ourselves.

[departea]

I only know a few familiar faces from past games. And even then, apparently one of them is a double who's trapped in some other place? Like, wow Hatter, talk about trying to outdo yourself here.

[undesigned]

What can you tell me about that guy?

[departea]

A lot of the games where death is involved is run by the Hatter, so even though this one isn't like that I'd keep my guard up.

[undesigned]

So even if we're not dying, he might have a pretty sick sense of fun. Got it.

[departea]

The helpful hints are new though. Usually we're expected to figure out what to do on our own.

[undesigned]

It might be because of the eclectic playerbase that's been gathered.

[departea]

[ eclectic... ]

-- right! Let's just hope that everyone catches on quick.

[undesigned]

Yeah, did I say something weird?

[departea]

[ just smiles HA HA SHE TOTALLY KNOWS WHAT THAT WORD MEANS HA ]

No, nothing at all.

[undesigned]

Okay, if you say so.

Also, can you tell me a little about yourself?

[departea]

Of course. Well, I've been in camp for about a year and a half? I think that's right... I'm from England, obviously, although right now I live with a bunch of basketball players and the dirt they track into the cabin makes me weep.

[undesigned]

They probably smell pretty bad, too, huh?

[departea]

[ groans ]

I'm in the process of writing out a chore wheel.

[undesigned]

Teenage boys are the worst. I should know.

[departea]

I figured.

What about you? What's your story?

[undesigned]

Oh, me? I'm from New York. I'm Spider-Man, which isn't much of a secret because of ... circumstances. I'm pretty much a big science geek. Oh, and I'm in camp right now. I live with these guys named Jaime and Ronan and my ex-girlfriend, Gwen.

[departea]

Oh, that's ni-- wait, what?

[undesigned]

What?

[departea]

I'm not even sure why I'm surprised considering the X-Men are here.

[undesigned]

Yeah, they're not exactly ... my X-Men. Plus, there are three Spider-Men in camp.

[departea]

I give up trying to keep up with you people.

[undesigned]

I'd draw a diagram, but basically, there are two Peter Parkers, one from the beginning of his career and one from the end—I'm from the end—and then there's a Spider-Man in a black and red suit, and picked up where I left off.

The X-Men, to my knowledge, come from a world where I'm about ten years older and didn't ... end my career when I was sixteen.

[departea]

Oh.

You'd think your lives were complicated enough without this alternate worlds business.

[undesigned]

From what I understand, there are a lot of different alternate universes; I was fortunate enough to know about them before I was sent into camp.

[departea]

That would make this whole thing easier, yeah.
