Extraordinary.

[When the video first clicks on, Charles's face is far too close to the camera. He pulls back a little, turning the device in his hands before propping it up against something, a delighted grin evident on his face.]

Hello! My name is Charles Xavier. I understand this impressive device is, in actuality a sophisticated communications

Uh ... well I'm kind of a hero, where I'm from! Does that count?

[neotelepath]

I don't see why not.

[manoamano]

Awesome! Yeah, I'd say I'm kind of a big deal, back home. Saved the world from ending and everything!

[neotelepath]

Were you the superhero type of hero or the firefighter type? Because both are equally as impressive in their own ways and I think the latter takes an amount of courage not many have within them.

[manoamano]

Uh ... probably more like a superhero type. Me and my friends used to fight evil monsters lurking in the shadows!

[neotelepath]

Really? Monsters? You must have had to train quite often.

[manoamano]

Only like, every friggin' day, dude. It was exhausting! But you know what they say - a hero's work is never done!

[neotelepath]

That's the spirit.

[manoamano]

Man, ain't that the truth, too. I thought we were done saving the world from the Fall and then it turns out there's some crack in time we gotta fix or else who knows what's gonna happen. Talk about lame.

[yearoftruth]

Hey, Iori. You're back.

[manoamano]

Uh ... do I know you, dude?

[yearoftruth]

... Yeah, but I figured something like this might happen.

Seta Souji. How I know you is complicated.

[manoamano]

Really? More complicated than waking up and being told you're fictional?

Heh, well, nice to meet ya anyway. I'm Junpei, but I guess you know that already.

[yearoftruth]

You could say it goes along the same lines.

This place doesn't exactly make things clear cut.

[manoamano]

Heh, I guess not!

So, what's really going on here?

[yearoftruth]

I'd like to answer that, myself.
