Possible Scenarios
01. A New Arrival: Hello, New Person! You seem to have found yourself on a sidewalk in the City of Sin with nothing but the clothes on your back and a stomach chruning feeling of being displaced. Thankfully, the streets are full of people - Watch out that you don't get mugged!

02. Demonic Presences: You were just minding your own business, weren't you? But that's always when bad things seem to happen, and the City of Sin isn't really that friendly. Whatever bar or street you're hanging out in suddenly go dim, filling the area with an unnerving feeling as the shadows on the walls jump out into reality. We suggest you phone a friend for help, or maybe try running?

03. Party Hard: You've been invited to a massive, elegant party at the Tower that spills out its doors in welcome, by someone who calls themselves the Emperor. Obviously, that's weird, but maybe you can get some free drinks and food out of it! This place might not be so bad.

04. Prominence: The City of Sin influences it's population on a weekly basis. Too bad you came right smack dab in the middle of a heavy Prominence. Lust, Greed, Gluttony, Envy, Wrath, Sloth, or Pride. Choose your choice of sin and be wicked.

05. Trouble: Not everyone is sunshine and roses here. Some people are violent and cruel, raised in the sludge of a sinful city. And they like to pick on people they think can't fight back. Are you that person? Or are you the Hero who can't stand to watch? Worse yet, could you be the person doing the instigating? Villian.

06. Carnival: The City has carnivals or festivals now and then; you're lucky to catch one! With its open booths filled with cork gun games and funnel cakes, how can someone not have any fun! Go win your darling a stuffed animal, or meet someone new on the spinning cup ride. You might even see someone you know being talked into sitting in the Dunk Tank.

07. Network: There's a network device in your pocket - or at least a familiar object that seems to work in mysterious ways. Perhaps you can take to that and ask for a bit of help? Or maybe you'd prefer to have a little fun with all of this. Surely someone will reply.

08. Wild Card:Choose your own adventure in the game's setting!

Would it be?

[And then he pauses, tilting his head and squinting a bit at the woman he was speaking to. She looked incredibly familiar, but also not.]

Mo- Are you, um... the Scarlet Witch? Wanda?

Yes. [It would be. But also yes to his second multi-part question.]

And you're Tommy, Billy's brother? [A question that doesn't really need to be one.]

You look... different. I mean. Sort of the same, sort of different.

[He nods though. Slowly. Very, very slowly for him. It was obvious that Tommy was trying to figure out what was going on and was hitting a wall.]

So... you know who I am? But... [Help?]
divaricate: sways @ dw (✘ been dead as a disco)

I'm from a similar world to yours, not the exact one. The short version? It'll probably sound like A Lot. [Just a heads up.] I spent a year in another place kind of like this one where people often got pulled into without warning. Billy was there -- he'd been there for two years when I showed up -- he had pictures because apparently you were there briefly too, well before I got there. Weird as this place gets too, I'm glad to officially meet you. [That gets a small but warm smile.]

[Tommy looked thoroughly and appropriately confused.]

I was there briefly? [Obviously, he had no recollection of any of this.]

So what is this place? Do you have any idea why we're stuck inside the city? Are we prisoners, or something?

[He bites his lip before he gets too carried away with the barrage of questions.] Nice to meet you too... Again. Sort of. [As if things weren't weird enough before.

He suddenly lights up.]
Is Billy here too?!

Not prisoners in the sense that we get our own cramped cells and a million restraints tossed on us for good measure.

[sarcasm in the last couple of words. for the record, she really hopes to never see any Tony Stark here ever.

though she suspects, for a speedster who can go from one end of the city to the other in no time, this place does feel rather cramped.]


This place, though, messes with us on an emotional kind of scope. [she ... makes a little bit of A Face. fun times.]

Billy isn't here, but others you sort of know are.
