"Guess we're both feeling sort of awestruck.. and probably super confused..I can't tell if I should be more excited or start panicking??" Yet, despite his words, Jason would crack a smile towards the hero, not minding the rain as it pour over them. "Mm.. Mind's all fuzzy, actually." ++

"You're talking crazy, Billy... You're not going to ever disappear from the group. You have my word on that..." Earnest in the way he spoke, matter of factly with how he'd try to assure Billy of his place there. "I'm not losing you, okay?? So don'f pull this crap, man. We need you." ++

"I know.." There's a softness in his voice, his expression carrying that worry across his face while he kept that hold of Billy's hand. "But sacrificing yourself, Billy..? That's not going to do anything but cause further grief. I can't and I won't lose you, too.." ++

ㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤ ㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤ

"Oh, uh. Yeah— Yeah, Jason. Jason Scott." He almost seemed bashful in the way Jon recalled what details he could about him. To think he had been some great fictional hero in this world, he had to wonder what sort of merch was sold. But at a later time. ++

// So i never did replies oops. Wasnt feeling it. Had a bad day <\3 couldnt motivate myself

// replies and starters I owe coming soon(tm)

My ears are ringing.

// he looks dumb when he's mad.

"Don't talk like you don't deserve the same sentiment, Billy. C'mon. You're one of my best friends in the whole blasted universe. Sure, maybe you're not the exact Billy I grew up with but we have those memories, don't we?" Even as the other looked away, Jason's full focus remained on him. ++

"Do you even hear yourself right now, Billy..? Look at you..!" There was a crack to his voice, emotions just at bay while he'd hold himself together — for him. "I don't care if you're not my Billy, it doesn't matter. We're in this together, I still care about you." ++

"No idea how I got here, actually.." Jason admitted with a timid glance to one side, his hand catching the back of his head. "One minute I was with the others, on a mission and next thing I know I'm transported wherever ... here is." Eyes scanning the area, he definitely was not back home. ++

When Jason got the news of what had happened with @pastghost.bsky.social, he spent some time lost to his guilt — berrating himself for not being there for him, for not being the leader he needed to be. For not being the 𝘧𝘳𝘪𝘦𝘯𝘥. "Jesus, Billy..I—" He tried to speak, now at his hospital bedside. ++

Dibs on the blue rangers tech when he dies.

"TV—?" The realization came as a surprise, leaving Jason utterly dumbfounded upon hearing of his origins in this world. "This is way too weird, man. You're telling me in my world you're a comic character and in your world I'm.. on TV?" A scoff, disbelief apparent in his every breath. ++

// me looking at all the replies i havent done 😌 My brain is too tired to be good at writing rn

"I haven't hit on anyone..!"

"Right. Sorry, ma— I mean miss. I mean.. Raven?" "Still getting uh used to you. Not in 2D. Anyway.." "Yeah, good heart matters but it ain't easy to come by as often these days."

"You're gonna be awfully alone if you're looking for someone to match your level of brainiac, Bills."

"Sorry, Miss Raven ma'am."

"Okay, no. Listen. Raven and Catwoman and definitely tier S characters but not just for being hot. You gotta like really get into the comics to get it, man." "That's like the Nightwing effect. People say that guy's the hottest vigilante but don't care to see what makes him an awesome leader."

"I dunno, I like that even though she's not much of a hero, she's still got heart. She's there where it matters most, you know?" "Not all black and white. Sometimes not everyone's always the good guy, but doesn't mean they gotta always make the bad choices either."

"No, Billy. I didn't hit on anyone's mom. I said she was cool and hot. In general." "But like it's Catwoman so that's just common knowledge, dude."

"What the heck–" "I'm starting to get some hefty flashbacks here. You sure Rita isn't involved???"

"Now you're really making up garbage, man! I never said those words! You're making me look like a total tool!" "You trying to pick a fight?"

"No offense, man. She's totally awesome as just herself, minus the hotness. Big fan." "And Tommy YOU said that! Don't go pinning that on me. I will kick your butt."

"TOMMY!"

So...you know if she does or not then?

This guy here thinks Catwoman uses a litter box. I said no way, man.

"I haven't slept in over 24 hours."

Punching the air & kicking at nothing. "We won't let you win!" "We need dinozord power, now!"

Rolling on the ground— "Go, go Power Rangers..!" It's been a long day.

He's just staring at @pastghost.bsky.social. Something's felt off, but he hadn't quite grasped what.

You're actually Robin, no way.. Oh, uh. Right. You can call me Red, I'm the Red Ranger. Some kinda weird universe thing..I'm not from here. But seeing you? Actually kinda cool. I grew up reading about you.

"Alright. So it turns out we were sent to a place where comic characters are actual people. Heroes.. Now that's one thing." "But some of the villains? Might have my work cut out for me."
