[He's in his lab, returning from locking the door apparently. He was rousted out of bed early in the morning and is wearing a t-shirt and jeans, but he's still excitedly poring over the data pouring in from the sensors that are operational.]

I need first-hand reports on what you're experiencing. This many new arrivals, is this common?

Look, new people, I understand you're disoriented, but don't just go walking into buildings and apartments. Not everyone here reacts well to surprises.

[ooc: Bring it on. Time out for a few hours. Heading out to see Wreckit Ralph. Feel free to tag in and I'll pick up when I get back. (Possibly with random pings from the train.) Baaaack, game on!]

Why would anybody wander into someone's apartment? Seems like a great way to get arrested for trespassing.

[A pause.]

Sorry, can't answer your other question. Just arrived myself.

[hulkbusted]

Don't ask me, but it's kind of going around.

Did you land in the fountain? It happens so often I think there should be a towel concession there.

[subecho]

Not so. It is a surprise to see you peach of flesh and with rich of clothing, but I have born it well.

[hulkbusted]

[Doth mother... no, wrong Avenger. Huh. He shouldn't be surprised.]

I half expected you to show up eventually.

[riches]

They've been walking in on you?

[ S-So many new arrivals, wow. She's noticed that too, albeit from the safety of the house. ]

[hulkbusted]

I feel like I'm in the middle of a lemming migration. How are you holding up?

[initforthemoney]

They don't react well to surprises? Thanks for the sympathy there, buddy. We're the ones who got plonked into this mess without so much as a 'thank you very much.'

[Yes Bruce there is a talking penguin with a Brooklyn accent on your video screen. React as you will.]

[hulkbusted]

[Uh...

No really, uh...]

Yeah, okay... sorry...

[Uh...]

Did you experience any kind of... transformitive event when you arrived?

[astrophysicists]

I only know that it's happened before.

[hulkbusted]

I've seen records of similar influxes in the network archives, but you never know when this place will throw a curve ball.

[Huge, huge eyes are blinking at the screen]

I'mma stay on the beach.

[hulkbusted]

[Oh sh-- crud, a kid.]

Did you just get here?

[spearbreaker]

Is it not the custom to offer hearth to visitors, or is this place so inhospitable as to deny courtesies to those it has summoned here.

[hulkbusted]

Have you seen how many visitors there are today?

[fearthepackingchips]

Well why would I walk into buildings or apartments? Unless somebody took my eyes again.

...do you know something I don't?

[hulkbusted]

Probably but do you really need to know the atomic weight of Einsteinium?

[punchedhitler]

Bruce, I need backup. I'm sorry to have to ask you, but it's either you or Tony. Loki has Pepper Potts.

Private;

[hulkbusted]

I'm there. What do you need?

video;

[asofwar]

It has happened before.

video;

[hulkbusted]

And did Loki threaten Pepper then too?

[theironlady]

Not even the awesome kind, Dr. Banner?

[hulkbusted]

It looks like you have me at a disadvantage.

[warmachine]

You're a menace.

[video]

[dashingrainbow]

Why are people walking into your place, Doc? That's kind of rude.

[He's entertaining a talking penguin, head to the back of the line, talking horse/pony/whatever.]

It's the City messing with us again.
