[ So the last place that Tommy remembers being is on David's bed on Krakoa, crashing into sleep because David was too busy filing his taxes to fool around. He fell asleep feeling weirdly domestic in a way that should have scared him, but instead made him feel kind of warm and nice. It would have been something terrifying to dwell on later, if he woke up exactly where he fell asleep. Instead, he woke up in the middle of being bathed. And not even by David, which would be weird enough! Waking someplace unexpected, being fondled by strangers, obviously he panicked. He tried to run away, butt naked, but all the doors were locked. He threatened to blow his way out, which was only responded to with innuendo which was, honestly, a little deflating given the circumstances. They handed him a phone, some see-through clothing, told him that everything would be explained at orientation and sent him on his way.
Orientation, yeah right. Fuck that.
So Tommy ran. First he ran all through Duplicity, from the up to the down and all around, trying to find anyone he knew. He stopped a few people, a blur that turned into a person right in front of them, asking them a thousand high speed questions about where they were, how far from New York, how far from Krakoa? Eventually he made it to the beach. Finally, a beach! This he could work with. Run far enough, and you'll hit some land somewhere else. So he ran across the water, only to find himself washed up on the shore, choking up seawater. What the hell?? So he tried again, and again, and again, being washed up on the shore each time with no recollection of being taken by the waves. ]

[ Okay so Orientation explained a lot, but Tommy isn't exactly a fan of being kidnapped. He's not really into being a damsel in distress, again. That's assuming anyone even notices he's gone--no, that's not fair. It's not fair to David. It's pretty fair to the rest of his friends and family, but he's not exactly a lone wolf anymore, is he? If no one else noticed he was missing, David definitely would, and would also definitely go looking for him. On one hand, great, he'll be rescued! Or on the other hand, David could get trapped here too.
On that note, he's also not a fan of being forced into a situation where he needs to cheat on someone he actually cares about, repeatedly, or get tortured if he doesn't. He's going to do it, he's not stupid and he knows David wouldn't fault him for a fuck or die situation, but it's really shitty.
All things considered, Tommy is in a pretty bad mood as he's sitting on the train, watching the scenery go by in slow motion. He hated public transport, he could go faster than most trains in his sleep. He's tapping his foot impatiently, antsy to get off of this stupid ride and back to trying to find a way out of this place, or at least a way to contact anyone back home. Eventually, when he sees someone on the train being overly aggressive with their submissive, Tommy just snaps, who whoever is nearest. ]
Are you kidding me with this? And we're all just suddenly cool with slavery and abuse here? Like that's supposed to be ok and normal? Wow.

a. [ And then the rain starts. At first Tommy catches the drops in his hands, cursing that he doesn't have an umbrella, until he starts feeling the drops on places he shouldn't: his shoulder, the top of his feet, the back of his leg. It's then that he notices that the rain is...disintegrating his clothes? Fuuuuck, and he just bought these! With a curse, he zooms under the nearest awning, waiting to see if this is going to pass or if he should just brave the rain to get back to the Up Apartments. Either way, he's starting a feel a little warm even though he should be cold for as wet as he is. ]
b. [ So maybe Tommy stole an umbrella. Easy enough when you have super speed, and it was going towards a good cause. Equipped with the very plastic see through clothes he had been given upon arrival, Tommy is going through the up, and the down, offering to escort people back to where they need to be. If you're too slow, he'll carry you. If you talk his ear off, he might charge you. We'll see how it goes. ]

[ As far as Tommy is concerned, he isn't going to be here for long. David's going to tell Billy he's gone, and Billy's just going to use his phenomenal cosmic powers to break him out. That is, assuming Billy isn't so preoccupied with his own drama that he completely forgets about his own brother's well being, which has happened before. Anyway, the point is, he won't be here long. He shouldn't get involved in local drama. If he's honest, the graffiti he's seen is hilarious, and he wouldn't mind getting his hands on a can of spay paint and giving it a go. Something about putting your anger someplace tangible, or whatever they like to call it.
What he's not about is just walking by people getting victimized by bullies. No way. So when he sees someone being cornered by the Bulldogs, he doesn't even consider not getting involved. ]
Hey.
[ He's in there in a heartbeat, knocking three guys on their asses before they can even see who called out in the dark. He just winks at the fourth as he picks whoever is being harassed and speeds off. ]

[ Unlike some people who rock up into Duplicity, it's very clear from the moment the camera starts going that the person on the screen knows how to handle this kind of technology. So, not from the past, not from the future. In fact, he's kind of holding it at an angle that suggests that he's familiar with Instagram filters. Welcome tik tok nation. ]
Hey fellow kidnap victims, I'm Tommy, and I really don't wanna fucking be here. I'm just trying to find out if anyone here is from where I'm from, because I'm getting the impression this is some kind of multiverse thing going on where everyone's from really different universes. Not exactly something I've got experience in, but I know a guy who knows a guy so it's not totally new to me.
So uh I guess some big names from my world are Captain America, Iron Man, Magneto, Wanda Maximoff--Oh yeah, speaking of, M-Day. That's a thing. If you know about M-Day you're probably from the same place I am, and we should put our heads together, see about getting the hell out of here.
And on the off chance my witchy baby brother doesn't get me out of here in time for this quota thing, I'm dtf but I'm not here for anything serious. I've actually got someone waiting for me back home, but he won't be mad if I'm forced into a fuck or die kind of situation. I'm...yeah, wow, first time saying this out loud. I'm Bi, so I'm open to whatever as long as you're hot and not too crazy.
[ And with a peace sign to the camera, that's a sign off. ]
