[ Rhys has only just stepped out of the castle when he starts the video. There's not much that has changed about him. His hair is slicked slightly more to the side, with a couple of stylish stray hairs hanging down, and the colour of his left eye is golden rather than blue. Closer to his natural eye color, but still obviously different.

If he doesn't look very happy, well, that's because he was in the middle of something. Meaning that, after a lot of time and effort, they finally managed to open the damn vault, but before he got to actually see what was in that big chest, he ended up here. So, yeah, you can bet he's annoyed. All that work and he's left with a cliffhanger, and now it might be months before he finds out! ]

Hi, everyone. Not sure ... I don't know who noticed I was gone, or how long I was gone, or who's still here, but ... I'm back? Rhys. That's my name. I'm-- Uh. So. Slightly disconcerting fact. I went home for ... a while. Like. Months. Thing is, I don't think I remembered ever being here. I'm a little, uh, confused, still. It's like I need to sort out what order everything happened in and who everyone is.

A lot's happened. Not gonna go into that. Just a ... couple of things. Firstly, if Klaus and company are still here and you're still living in that house, I'd love if someone could meet me halfway with a coat or something because I'm dressed for the desert, not this. Secondly, Gaige, if you're still here and willing to talk to me, that'd be ... great. Or I guess you could just cuss me out more, or punch me in the face, or whatever.

Other than that, let me know if I missed anything exciting? Again, no idea how long it's been. Pretty sure it was winter when I was here last but, I dunno, maybe it's been a whole year. Or more.

[ He does one single finger gun, and ends the feed before he starts making his way through Honir district.

Feel free to run into him in person and say hi. ]

[ Wow, rude? ]

Hey, my fashion sense was fine. What kind of welcome back is this?

[ It's all in good fun! Fun for Peter, that's it. ]

If you are sure you can call whatever you were wearing before 'fine', this argument is lost already.

[ Peter laugh, then waves a hand. ]

Sorry, sorry...to be fair, I didn't realize you were gone. I've been kinda busy with the Wind Farm. Klaus is still around, are you two close?

[ Honestly the rudest.

Despite the way he huffs and scowls, though, he's not actually that mad about it. ]

I guess we are, yeah. Which is weird when I didn't remember him at all for months.

[ Peter gives him a somewhat apologetic smile. It's Rhys really has been gone that long form his point of view, coming back here must have been really annoying. ]

I'm pretty sure it's the magic here messing up with your memories. Or perhaps your brain tried to save you the trouble of having these memories. I died and came back in my world and I don't remember what the other side looks like either.

I meant to ask for a while, are you and Gaige good now of she still wants to staple your balls to the wall?

I don't know. I just know I forgot everything. And I'd place my bets on wanting to staple my balls to the wall.

Uh weird. Have you talked to your assigned God? It's Odin right? Maybe he will have some answer.

[ Or at the very least, some condescending wise words. ]

Okay, better avoid her then.

No, it's Tyr, but I'll probably go talk to Odin anyway. Pretty sure he knows more than the others about all this.

Oh right, I don't know what I was thinking. Man it's been a long while since I've been in our god house.

Yeah, uh. Been a while for me too.

You have a better excuse than me to forget about it. i must be getting old.

Do you know what made you got back home? Or if something triggered your return here?

Nope. As far as I can recall, at least, I was here and then ... I wasn't. Kind of like how we ended up here in the first place.

Hm. I know someone else here who left and came back and he mentioned the same thing. I guess that's really what always happens.

I have another question, did time pass in your world while you were here in Asgard? Were things differently back home when you came back?

[ ok, that's two questions but... ]

Nope. It was like nothing happened at all. Including my memory.

Weird. I wonder what kind of force can do that. I've known of a Wizard who can transcend time and dimensions but he always remembered what happened.

I dunno. Their great magic tree?

[ SHRUG ]

[ Peter pauses, then his eyebrows go up in a 'oh right, yeah' kind of look. ]

I don't think even the Gods know how powerful that thing in.

Starting to think the gods don't really know anything at all, but I guess they haven't exactly been secretive about that. It's been "we have no idea" about why we're here and what's happening since the start.

It's both frustrating and kind of relieving that they're just as clueless as the rest of us, to be honest. Gods arne't infallible here. They weren't in my world either.

Iiii get your point, but I think I'd prefer if they were infallible and all-knowing, if I'm honest. At least if it meant that they'd just send us right back home. Or if they could've prevented us being here at all.

That would be ideal, yes.

I don't miss my universe as much as I miss the people there, though. Gamora is with me here, so that's more than I have back home. I can't complain.

[ A snort. ]

Yeah, tell me about it. Compared to where I'm from, this place is great, but I'll miss my friends.
