[ The way Steve backs away from the phone as it records and his hands find his hips as he straightens gives off Unimpressed Vibes but he can't tell one way or another if this thing is broadcasting. He trusts it is. Pressed the livestream option, for what it was worth. He murmurs to himself for a moment, checking the set-up. ]
Alright, so not that different from making a home video, it just ... transmits right away. Very cool.
Uh, hi. Hello. I think this is "streaming" now? [ Like in Ghostbusters when the streams are crossed? Right? Damn. He's got this. ] Yeah, let's do this.
Name's Steve Harrington. Me and some of my [ doesn't even pause here, well done, ] friends got pulled into this dimension and we're kinda used to the whole other worlds thing but we've never been to the future before.
Can someone who isn't a total jackass and won't waste our time please fill us in on whatever's happened since nineteen-eighty-six? That's when we're from. Thanks. Also, does anyone know how dead people can come back to life here? Is it a magical spell or a friendly curse put on them or something? Asking for reasons.
... Yeah, okay, bye.

I was just trying to build up a general view of how world events play out, sir. Mr. Octavius.

[It's still quite a few years off for him, not quite so prominent.]
Well, we were all supposed to die in 2000, too. They said there would be a computer glitch that sent us all back to the Stone Age. And Halley's Comet - that was in '86, wasn't it? People predict a new apocalypse every ten years.

The apocalypse is already happening for us. An alternate dimension is bleeding over, gates are opening up between worlds to let through monsters. I'm ... sorry, this all sounds insane, I know.
no subject
Not at all. Something similar happened here, recently - a Confluence on the ocean floor released several giant creatures. I think you'll find very little sounds insane, once you're here a while. But I am sorry you've had to go through that.
no subject
... Can I ask about the, uh.
[ Wiggling his fingers by a shoulder. ]
Because I don't want to be rude but that looks kind of badass.

[Like, the whole backstory is Not Alright At All, but it's an extremely common question. Otto's long since come up with an abbreviated version he's fine telling to strangers.]
They're tools of my own invention. They were meant for handling dangerous materials, originally.
