[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.]

Are you--is-is this your Earth?

[kid_flash_found]

Nope, already said that, didn't I?

No, I don't know how I ended up here. Or even where here is beyond the easy answers.

[commanderspecs]

Did you?

[He's trying not to hyperventilate. Barry pulls at his collar]

Is it...is it a little warm?

[kid_flash_found]

Look, take a deep breath, and focus on going slow. Tell me where you are. I can try to help.

[commanderspecs]

[HE TRIES. Oh how he tries to take a deep breath]

I don't-I don't-I don't know. It looks...it looks like...some turn of the century neighborhood.

[voice only]

[kid_flash_found]

I'm coming, just keep describing what you see, keep breathing.

[A soft intake of breath, as he gives an almost lie.]

I'm not far.

[commanderspecs]

It looks like a barber shop.

[He keeps trying to take a deep breath]

Oh my gosh, this place. And these powers. And -- Mr. Allen, this is nuts. I need to get back home. There's evidence I need to process and the stack is a mile high.

[kid_flash_found]

Barber shop, that's good.

Just slow down, take it easy. People way smarter than I am are already on the problem, looking for a way to fix what happened and send everyone home to where and when they should be.

[He was on his sixth barbershop before he spots some of the landmarks he caught from the video feed, and takes a quick stroll around the corner to come by in normal clothing, at a slightly increasing pace as he spots the guy who looks pretty much like the other two Barry Allen doppelgangers.]

Mr. Allen, are you okay?

[commanderspecs]

[His bowtie's undone, the top few buttons have been undone and Barry looks like he needs to be put out of his misery for a bit]

I'm in a place where vikings and dinosaurs are running loose and I have meta powers. I'm just peachy keen.

[kid_flash_found]

We're working on the dinosaurs. Al Capone and his people tried to use them for target practice, and it's been a little hard getting them contained.

I think you just need to sit down and have a drink of water. Some place that actually has modern plumbing, though. No sense getting the flux.

[commanderspecs]

Al Capone?! The mobster?! The flux?!

[kid_flash_found]

Time's a little mixed up here, all right. You really did see vikings and dinosaurs, and they really shouldn't be together, but for right now, they are. The sooner you get used to it, the better you'll be, because ignoring reality isn't a good coping mechanism.

[commanderspecs]

A glass of water would be...would be swell.

[He does feel a headache coming on.]
