[Video]

[It's the morning on the eighth day since waking up, not in her Manhattan apartment as expected, but in this middle of nowhere, hodunk town located on this middle of nowhere, hodunk planet in a reality she's been told there's no escape from. Threats have been made. Multiple attempts at information seeking have been conducted. Repeated conversations with both Billy and Teddy, drilling them on everything they could possibly know.

The result? Zip. Nada.

Okay. Well, if she has to be stuck somewhere, at least it's a place where the coffee's halfway decent. But talking to a book? Kate continues to stare down at it, dressed in pajamas, mug in one hand as she prompts the journal against her folded knees. Give her a smartphone any day.]

So. Talking book. They couldn't have gone with something less bulky to carry around? It doesn't exactly have to be Stark level technology, but c'mon. This is so last century.

[Taking a sip from her mug, she then places it on the nearby night table and picks up the book with both hands. She tilts it down and to the left, spreading the pages out wide.]

Is this thing even on?

[Action]

[Later in the day, Kate Bishop can be found shopping at the items shop or running simulations at the Battledome. It's not her bow, not her world, but there's no way in hell she's going to slip up on her training now.]

What, you don't remember TRON being next door to Little House On The Prairie?

[Wow. Can you get any more old school?]

I must have missed that episode.

It was one of those late night TV Land things. Easy to miss.

Some of us have better things to do with our nights.

[Like homework. Or patrolling Manhattan fighting crime.]

Usually I do too. Like sleeping.

...but?

Sometimes you end up with way more caffeine than you intended.

[That gets a chuckle and a grin.]

Touché.

Anyway, welcome to Luceti. I'm Static.

Codenames, huh? [A grin.] Hawkeye.

Like the TV Show? [A beat.] Sorry. My pops really likes old school stuff.

[It takes her a second to make the connection. Wow, talk about a TV Land junkie.

Dryly,] Clearly.

But, no. It's more like the Avenger.

The Avenger? What's he do?

[...]

Um. You're serious, aren't you?

Did I say something wrong?

You have heard of the Avengers, haven't you?

They're a sports team, right?

[He's never heard of them, but Hawkeye sounds like the kind of name a jock would pick up.]

[Palm meet face. Until she remembers that whole alternate universe thing a split second later.]

So, no Avengers where you come from. Okay. I can deal with that. [A quick grin.] Well, buddy, they're not a sports team. Try superheros.

Superheroes. [Well alright then. That's pretty cool.] So you're in the superhero business too, huh?

Sort of. Yeah.

[Thanks a lot, Clint. Being a superhero again? All your fault.]

Yeah? Well so am I. I'm from Dakota City.

...Nebraska?

[Said with all the arrogance of someone from a real city.]

No. Michigan. I know its the midwest, but come on. It's no Detroit, but it's still big!

Can't say I've heard of it.

Yeah, well maybe you should get out more. It's no Metropolis, but people usually get the right state for us.
