How many of you are familiar with BOTH the concept and realities of time travel and the multiverse AND quantum physics?

[forasecond]

Impressive.

[Which is, like, high praise coming from Five. Congrats.]

Time travel I get. I've been studying it my whole life.
It's the interdimensional part that's got me messed up.

I'm trying to figure out a way home.

[intermingled]

I see. I cannot promise how much I will be able to help you, but if you are willing to share with me what you know so far, I will attempt to see how I may assist you in this endeavor.

I am aware of certain crossover events in my own world and have secondhand knowledge of them through my sister and her crew.

[forasecond]

I can respect that. My end of this is definitely more a need to meet you in-person thing. I'm trying to adapt the equations I used for the last big time travel trip I did to hit multidimensionally instead.

The problem being, I have no idea how you measure one universe from the next. What keeps them separated? Is there a signal of some kind I need to be looking for? And how the hell do I figure out what the one for my world looks like?

I definitely would like to hear more about that.

I have arrived recently and am residing at the Diadem Hotel if you would like to meet.

While I do not have my usual scientific instruments and I do not expect to find similar technology here, I may be able to assist you in the formulation, however I suspect this will not be a short term project.

[forasecond]

All right, I can meet you there.

Oh, I don't expect it to be a quick project. The last one took me 45 years, I'm in it for the long haul, buddy.

[intermingled]

Then I suppose we have a new project to work on.

[ And he's more excited at the prospect of a new science project than he should admit. ]

[forasecond]

Sounds like it.

I'm Number Five, by the way.

[Names. Those are, supposedly, probably important or something.

It won't take long to put together that Five is not great at co-working his equations. He spent a very, very long time on his own, and is not used to sharing the space or the credit, but with his brother disappearing recently, he's a little more desperate to figure this out before Allison up and vanishes on him next. It's the kind of desperation that's made him decide an extra set of eyes might not be the worst thing.]

My name is Spock.

I will gather my thoughts for this project so that we may get started soon.

[ Spock isn't very good at the social intricacies of humans, so he's not unhappy to have found someone who can clearly value one without dismissing him based on the other. It's an odd thing to navigate a human world without expectations set out for him pertaining to Vulcan behavior for the first time in his life. ]

[forasecond]

I'll get some things together on my end and get back to you in a couple days.

[He's... kind of surprised he even found anyone that sounds like that might be able to help with any of it so quickly. The trick will be seeing how well they can or can't work with each other. Five is certainly not a peach to work with by any stretch, but maybe it will work out~ ]
