What Is and What Was Not
Vincent's Asgardian self had remained at the Baxter Building while his mortal self had departed with Kristoff. He'd devised an, while perhaps not as intricate as he would have previously done, effective tracking spell and was identifying other affected individuals, in hopes of locating the original source.

It was going to take some time to cycle however, leaving Vincent uncomfortably alone with his thoughts. He'd gone to speak with Andrea, but had silently withdrawn after spotting her with Mac. It wasn't his place to try to comfort her, not anymore.

Oh yes, he so enjoyed having thought thought stirred up again.

After a fruitless attempt to try to busy himself with something in his work space, his eyes fall on his phone. He bites his lip in hesitation, then picks it up. "Dial Moira."

	The phone Granny had given her, already a bit battered from Moira's usual running around, was ringing. The wee screen said 'Vincent'. Moira remembered to press the left button as she answered. "Hello, Vincent!" (Reply to this)(Thread)

	"Hello Moira... Ah... has anythin' out of the ordinary happened at the school today?" He wasn't quite sure how to break the ice about this event. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Well Vincent, I'm a wee bit more worried about how yui're doin' now, but we've a situation with a few student. Essentially, we've got a Chris Grant and Chris Pym instead of a Chris Grant-Pym. And poor Starbridge is a Shi'ar boy and a human boy instead of being one boy who's half of each." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

"Aye, well... about that... I'm fairly certain 'tis not my fault, but I'm a bit caught up in that same problem." He explains what happened to him and the Andreas, and that his other half and Kristoff are on their way to speak with Mistress Jennifer.

"Other than that... I have memories I know aren't real, and yet... I..." He hesitates. "Yuir family was, is, very important to me. I wanted to say that."

He is not choking up. He is not. There is too much going on for him to waste time crying.

	She can hear what he's 'not' doing clearly in his voice, especially with her ears. If he were present, she would hug him. "Och, Vincent, that's so sweet. I'm sure we'd've been happy to be so if 'twere real. 'Tis all right...." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

He rubs something out of his eye. "I thought 'twas right to tell you so.. no way to tell if I'll still have any o' these memories after this is fixed.

If it can be fixed."

He holds the phone away as he sniffs, then returns it to its position.

"On a separate topic, I was wondering if yuir busy later this week? I have some friends I wanted to buy Valentine presents for, and could use yuir input."

	The other Vincent wasn't about to teleport such a distance in his current state, so he and Kristoff were headed to Florida in the Fantasticar. Vincent's mortal side sat practically at attention. His gaze occasionally flickered to Kristoff, as if contemplating something. (Reply to this)(Thread)

"I dislike this situation." He replies, gravely. "Although I find it more tolerable without his sniveling." He gestures a hand back towards Manhattan.

Vincent pauses. "I have conflicting memories... discerning the real ones is simple enough, but the experience is disconcerting. You, for example." He folds his arms. "Your treatment of me makes less sense than it previously did. Also, my engaging in activities like laser tag or miniature golf. I find the idea of spending time on them difficult to comprehend." His favored past-times with Daniel and Scotty, respectively.

"I believe I am experiencing a disconnection from my 'true' memories. At the same time however, my scientific acumen has never been sharper." The look in his eyes is clearly that of one who is running a cost-benefit analysis.

He sets his elbows on the arm-rests, fingers folding in front of his face in a more than familiar pose.

"I find myself less able to comprehend... compassion. The nature of your actions in regard to your history and personality is consistent, but I find myself colder than previously. Forgiveness, not simply by you, but as a general concept, makes less sense.

It is not a sensation I enjoy."

	"I am seeing much in myself today that I do not cherish." He looks at Kristoff. "Your influence upon the whole of myself has apparently been more profound than I realized." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	There is an uneasy silence. "If this cannot be remedied, I'll see to it that my potential as a threat is... rectified. I believe, in spite of his less assertive demeanor, my other would be of more value to you and-- the family." His eye twitches slightly. He came within a hair of saying 'your' instead of 'the'.

	"Why should it progress? You say yourself you are capable of monitoring the discrepencies in your thinking. And if you have a few moments where you will not see reason, we will deal with it.

	"...I suppose you are correct." And then he says something he would likely not have, if he were whole, even if he doesn't mean any ill by it. "You've been much more successful with bringing me to reason in the past than with other parties." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)
