So I know I overreacted the night before. I was a little pissed off and everything, but then I guess dying probably kinda does that for some people. Anyway, does that floating disembodied voice guy always leave right in the middle of a conversation? What a douche.

Anyway -- thanks to everybody that tried to be helpful. But seeing as how this room is pretty much my room exactly (which is kind of creepy, by the way -- nobody but me should know some of the minute details), there's really not much settling in I have to do. And while I don't really think I'm up for all this "redemption" stuff, I haven't got much better to do while I'm here besides at least have a look, right?

So...sorry for freaking out at some of you. You'll see me around.

Call me 21.

[Private]

Having read through the journals and taken a peek around, I've come to settle on three possible explanations for my current predicament:

1. Monstroso has secretly developed hallucination-inducing powers...maybe kind of like those demons in Buffy the Vampire Slayer. Only I don't know why I'd be dreaming of this and -- I don't know, what my life would have been like if I stayed home through my teen years.
2. In the ensuing and EPIC battle between Monstroso, Brock Samson, and myself, I sustained massive head trauma and am now lying in a coma somewhere -- perhaps in a hospital, perhaps back at the cocoon, or perhaps even in some secret guild lab under Monstroso's office building. This would explain why there is at least one familiar place, my room. Therefore, all the people here that I seem to be recognizing from television and comics are clearly just figments of my imagination, my collective pop culture knowledge rising up as one to shield me from the worst damages to my brain. ...And how fucking cool is that? (I think there was a TV show like that a while back -- didn't last long. It was probably crappy. I dunno.)
3. Everything these people have told me about this place is true. I'm dead. And apparently in some strange nexus where anything and anyone I've ever fantasized as real really is real.

The first two options would definitely explain why I can't contact 24 anymore -- and it confirms he really was haunting me either way. If he were in my head, and all this were in my head, he'd be here now.

The third I'm still not so sure of. But just in case it is true, I need to be careful how I talk to some people. After all, if I say the wrong thing to one of them and they go home, how horribly am I going to mess up their time line?

I could unmake fandom as I know it.

Uncle Ben was right. Great power? Great responsibility.

Thanks!

So tell me about yourself, 21. And don't worry yourself about the Admiral, he's... not something I've entirely worked out yet, but at least he seems consistent with everyone when it comes to his odd habits.

Me? Professional Henchman. I also died dressed like a Jedi. It's been a special week for me.

He might just be serious.

Really? I've always wondered about that field- do they pay you well? Are there benefits, like dental and all that?

Oh. I'm very sorry to hear that. Were you any Jedi in particular?

There's benefits while you're there and working, but no real compensation if you die -- which happens a lot if you're not well trained. My buddy 24 and I were kind of an anomaly among Henchmen because we managed to stick around for years without being killed.

And just generic Jedi robes. Though I guess with a beard I could get the whole Liam Neeson thing going if I wanted to put some gay braids in my hair or something.

Why... would braids be homosexual? Rose used that turn of phrase once, never really questioned her about it.

Y'know I kinda thought you'd be more up on common slang than that.

I would if it made even a lick of sense.

What? And "allonsy" is the height of coherency?

Look firstly "allons-y" is French, and secondly-


Secondly. How the Hell do you know I say that?

Uh -- These are not the droids you are looking for.

Wrong answer, Obi-Wan. How do you know that?

Dude, take a hint. I'm not telling you. Charlie Brown up there couldn't get it out of me; what makes you think you can?

What makes you think I can't?

Dude, am I being threatened by the 10th freaking Doctor?

Door locks and about 100lbs weight difference, if you want to get technical.

He's actually quite worried, rest assured :|

Do you have even the slightest idea how unintimidating you are?
