Ah, there's one of those now? You don't really have an air of authority for a sheriff. Though they could be one of the same.
Someone from my universe appeared, a strapping young lad by the name of William Kaplan, one of the Scarlet Witch's twin boys. I can never tell the disparity in Avengers between us, but Wanda has always be reality bendingly prominent.
It seems they're both here. Though Magnus is not surname I'd expect. Er, let's shelf that for a moment.
[ it's not time for Magneto yet. that's a doozy.
as or the rest, he may as well just come out and say it. ]
He's the demiurge. One day he will rewrite the rules of magic in past, present and future. The effect will ripple through the multiverse in a vast cosmic shift of consequence. No pressure on him or anything, ofc. Right now, he's a stupid kid. One who's stuck here. Certainly puts what's happened to our own sorcery in some perspective.
[ do you know what? sure. let's entirely and immediately forget about what certain knowledge Loki's keeping for later on that first point, because then there's the rest.
"yikes" would be to put too fine a point on it. ]
It does, doesn't it.
[ the demiurge. a stupid kid destined to re-write the rules of magic across time and the multiverse. a kid who's here, presumably powerless. ]
[ said like he's not entirely sure Billy won't do that again, bECAUSE HE'S NOT. ]
Though if the power of the demiurge is cut off, then I have to wonder as to method. He's a reality warper, much like myself, and even without much finesse he has vast potential.
Stifling either of us ought to have been no easy feat. And yet here we are.
[ this isn't so much an insurmountable complication in and of its own as it is another brick on the already long-built wall they need to climb over to get out of here.
and it's something he'll discuss later, once he's had time to think about it on his own and to not think about it at all and to stay halfway sane while trying to ease in the new arrivals. ]
I'll be in the safehouse until they're given IDs. Let him know he's free to come to me. If he doesn't, I'll go to him myself once he's had a little time.
[ with Stephen it was one thing, Loki another, but Billy was the one who usually dictated those rules. it was disturbing and uncomfortable, and brought the loss of his divinity to the forefront, along with the loss of what Billy was. ]
I'll pass the message. You may want to scope him out- he's most likely going to be your other self's successor.
[ which brings the implication that there may be a Billy in Strange's world, soon. ]
Or maybe of the mantel entirely, considering what he is. Ah, well.
[ it's a bad joke, but the whiplash of having to think not only about their situation but the future, his future, the current possibility that the universe may not last long enough once he gets back to it for him or anyone else to have a future (or at least not the future they should) - ]

[ huh... ]
The kid I met was also Wanda's, Thomas Magnus. The brother?
What's the need to know on Kaplan?

And he can't access anything either?

He ended up straining himself so badly to reach it that he barfed on me.

Let's hope that's a lesson learned.

I'll find him. Thanks for the heads up.

You know, I'm warming up to Sheriff Strange.
