[How does this happen. How. How. Barry moves out of the way when he sees a stampede of...vikings?! He's standing out on a sidewalk somewhere downtown, not seeing a familiar sight anywhere. At least not like how it is back home. He sends out the all video signal]

Just what the heck is going on here?! Who's Gideon? Where am I?!

[He's hyperventilating or close enough to it, not amused at what is going on, and tries to make sense of it all.]

I'm Bart. Bart Allen. Long story.

[commanderspecs]

...Bart Allen.

[He's dubious.]

[kid_flash_found]

Oh, come on, like any sane person outside of a pair of Dr. Seuss books chooses to go by 'Bartholomew.' And I'm all out of hats and oobleck.

[commanderspecs]

B-Bartholomew is a perfectly good name!

[kid_flash_found]

Yeah, but I'm sticking with Bart. Short, direct, to the point. One syllable, hard to forget.

[commanderspecs]

How many Barry Allens are there?

[kid_flash_found]

That use the name, you make two. There's also one formerly-known-as. He gets angry if you make that mistake, though.

[commanderspecs]

He wouldn't happen to have scars on his face, would he?

[kid_flash_found]

That's the one, yep.

[commanderspecs]

I've met Mr. Garrick already.

[He snorts and guffaws a little]

He calls himself Savitar.

[kid_flash_found]

There are worse things he could call himself. Maybe.

[commanderspecs]

Such as?

[kid_flash_found]

Back home there's a guy that goes by Booster Gold. And let's not forget Plastic Man, either.

[commanderspecs]

...metas?

[kid_flash_found]

I think Plas is, not sure about Booster.

[commanderspecs]

The Accelerator explosion hit all the way out here? Wherever here is too?

[kid_flash_found]

Accelerator? What explosion do you mean?

[commanderspecs]

The...Particle Accelerator? STAR Labs? It exploded about a year and a half ago.

[kid_flash_found]

Um, different Earth, remember? They're more of a think tank than anything.

[commanderspecs]

You didn't mention you were from a different Earth. Are you...are you from the same one as the scarred version of...me?

[kid_flash_found]

No, I'm not sure which one it would be from here. Or even if it still exists.

[commanderspecs]

Why would it not exist anymore?

[kid_flash_found]

You wouldn't believe me.

[commanderspecs]

There's a lot that's happened already that I would not, and still cannot, believe.

[kid_flash_found]

So no sense adding more, right?
