Wells's Next Tape
Jan. 30th, 2011 05:03 pmThere's a vague blur on the screen, jostling as though someone's moving the camera to set it up. It stabilizes and recedes, turning into the faded blue t-shirt of a young man backing away from the camera.
"So, um ... hi, Andrew Prime. The bar downstairs gave me the key to your room. I hope you don't mind me crashing here while you're gone? Ray Stantz says this can happen from time to time, so I think we're cool."
The younger Andrew scratches his head, a bit uneasily.
"They tell me that it's not really predictable how time passes back home while you're here, so I think I better head for home now. I'll try and come back if I can. Meanwhile, uh, I met a few new people, and I ran into some people who know you, and I think I managed to make pretty clear that we're not really the same person? Um, one thing, though ... I might have warned Felix Gaeta about his future. I didn't tell him what was coming, just tipped him off that maybe he shouldn't go on the Demetrius mission. So you shouldn't run into too much trouble there. I hope."
Beat.
"So I guess that's it. Leave me a message if you get back here before I do?" He reaches to turn off the camera, pauses, and adds "This is Andrew Wells, somewhere in the multiverse."
Click. Blank screen.
