The sun is still high when the earth begins its initial, almost benign sway, but seasoned villagers know well enough that what follows will be far from gentle. Vibrations ramp up swiftly, exponentially, until within the space of a few seconds, the whole world is shaking — Dishes pinging down from shelves, young trees sifting free of the earth, shingles dislodging and tumbling like rain.
After 20 seconds, the worst is done, and after 30 the shaking has ebbed completely. Some will have escaped relatively unscathed, but others will not have been so lucky...
...and the aftershocks are still to come.

"You should do that!" There's a light chuckle with his words. "He'd know you'd already ran into me and likely have more than a thing or two to say about that, but..." He raises a finger. "Just... His daughter gave him that nickname when she was just learning to talk so, you know, maybe don't tell him it's 'sucky'." That's not likely to annoy Danny in the way his new friend is hoping. Then Steve grins, "Danny2 would likely get him going as well..." Steve chuckles, already hearing the rant that's likely to follow that. "He's likely to insist that would be you since he was here first."

He had run into Claire shortly after waking up in the fountain but he didn't know if there were other people from his plane. He had been told that there are other worlds and they were connected to this world in some way but Danny hadn't met anyone who could really confirm that they were from a different world. (He hadn't met Ironbull yet.)
It was hard to imagine anything outside of what he knew, unless this was another capitol of heaven like K'un-Lun had been.
no subject
Steve had an idea of what Danny was actually asking though and while he could provide an answer he didn't have any reasonable explanation to give along with it.
"They are the only two I knew prior to coming here. We're all from Hawaii, well technically Mary lives in L.A., but we're not all from the same time. Mary is from 2011. I'm from 2012, and Danny is from 2015." He sighs and shrugs. "It's all very surreal. In Danny's time, Mary and I are both around and neither of us, as far as Danny knows, ever mentioned anything like this." It was frustrating for Steve because he had no idea exactly what that meant.
"However this place is able to exist, it's also not technology or capabilities available from where I'm from." Although if the Observers are time travelers, then that could explain it, but it could also indicate other worlds being involved, (Steve hasn't met Bull as of this conversation yet either).

His frown deepened as he considered the repercussions. Claire had mentioned being here for awhile but Danny had seen her recently. He also didn't remember the same things that she did, so maybe it was their times.
"That's messed up."
no subject
It was frustrating and didn't make any sense. Did the Observers return him to the exact moment they took him after wiping his memory of these events only? Or was this all happening more like a dream and all in his head. Which made him wonder if it was happening at all. It felt real, but then so had his time in the simulation and that hadn't ended up being real after all. Whoever was doing this to them, was messing with them in ways Steve could only guess at, and he didn't like it one bit.
"That's putting it mildly."
no subject
He was still feeling a little shaky from the earthquake and looking uncertain. "I should head back and sit down for a second." He felt the pressure against the side of his head but shook it away.
no subject
At the last comment from Danny, Steve took another hard look at the other man and concern spread across his features. He held out a hand, ready to catch him or grab on to him should he start to waiver. "Buddy, you don't look very good. Are you sure you didn't get hurt in that quake?"
Moving in closer to be there if needed, he asks, "Where's your place? I'll help you get back... Or maybe we should head to the infirmary?"
no subject
"Thanks." He flashed Steve a brief smile. "I'm sure I'll see you around."
He hoped anyway.
no subject
While technically he couldn't speak for anyone else, everyone else had always been very helpful and kind from his perspective so he feels confident in throwing it out there.
As Danny walks away, Steve does in fact watch him go. After a couple of steps he continues to head in the direction he was going before he encountered Danny, but also continues to keep an eye on the other man making sure he gets to where he's going. Or at least close enough to it.
