[invoking]

I'm fine.

[ His body sings with aches and pains and he's got a few scratches, but he's alive and that's all that matters. Besides, he's not going to worry Kenzi. ]

What about you? You weren't in Capers?

[wisecracked]

You sure?

[She's going to worry anyway because she's been to every world prior to this one, she knows how things go down.]

Nope, looks like I got to miss out on all the fun.

[invoking]

Yes, I'm alright.

[ At least he's not covered in someone else's blood anymore. ]

I'd hardly call it "fun".

[ He's on edge since their return; Vulcanus could be anywhere plotting against them again. ]

[wisecracked]

Good, good.

[She gives a soft laugh, although it seems a bit nervous.] Certainly more exciting than remaining here... [A pause.] Anyway, what happened there? Any new info?

[invoking]

Vulcanus was waiting for us. [ He sounds like he's out of breath suddenly. ] They sent those... superpowered people after us. Sharon overheard a mention of Skrulls, but I don't know if those things were there.

[wisecracked]

Shit. They really like playing these games, huh? [She grumbles something in Russian.]

[invoking]

I think most of us managed to stop those people working with Vulcanus.

[ But he can't be too sure. ]

Did anyone say anything over the Network while we were away?

[wisecracked]

There was some kid complaining about dinosaurs but that's all I saw. [How can you complain about dinosaurs? They're awesome!]

[invoking]

Those things were just as dangerous as the Vulcanus agents...

[wisecracked]

That's half the fun!

[invoking]

There was nothing fun about it. They attacked Sharon as well. It as if they had specific targets from the start.

[wisecracked]

I meant the dinos.

Is she okay as well? [It's worrying that Vulcanus was apparently waiting for them and apparently had specific targets in mind.]

[invoking]

The dinosaurs attacked us, too.

[ He sighs. ]

Yes, she's fine. She's resting up for the time being.

[wisecracked]

Like, under Vulcanus' command as well? [Because that's seriously messed up.]

Good.

[invoking]

No, they just... [ How does he even explain it? He doesn't know much about dinosaurs. ] There weren't any ordinary animals there. Even the farm animals and horses were those dinosaur creatures.

[wisecracked]

That's so cool! I mean...not the attacking bit but just... Dinosaurs! [Man, why'd she have to miss out on dinosaurs?]

Glad you made it back in one piece though.

[invoking]

Yeah, we're alright.

[ He lets out another sigh. ]

This isn't looking good, though.

[wisecracked]

No kidding. I wonder if this means they're gearing up for something big.

[invoking]

It sounds like it. All the things the other imPorts have discovered... there's something else, too.

[ He pauses and then -- ]

May I come over?

[wisecracked]

Something else?

[Must be important if he's wanting to come over.] Sure. I'll start up some tea or something.

[invoking]

[ His tone carries surprise. ]

You're going to brew tea?

[ Kenzi's going to make something?! ]

[wisecracked]

Tea is, like, totes easy. [Meaning she's going to brew it all wrong and it's either going to be too weak or too strong.]

[invoking]

[ Welp. ]

Oh... alright, then.

I'll be over in an hour or so.

[ So she doesn't need to brew it ASAP.

He's morbidly curious about Kenzi's ability to make tea. ]

[wisecracked]

A'ight. See you when you get here.

[He's going to regret drinking the tea.]

[invoking]

[ LOG IT? ]
