[The video opens to a shot of the torso of a man in a black suit. He gestures, pointing as he talks to someone]

Naw, naw, don't give me none of that bullshit, T. What I tell you 'bout messin' with them Ditroxans, man? I told you they was gonna toss yo ass in the Hudson but did y'all listen to me? Naw. You had to go in all [his voice drops into a mocking baritone] Now don't tell me, Jay, I know what I'm doing. [His voice raises to its normal register and he waves an arm, dismissing the other man] Now get yo dumb ass home and take a shower 'cause... damn.

[He sighs and plops down in his computer chair, shaking his head and muttering to himself]

Don't know the difference between an arm and a... [He spots the video feed and his eyes get wide] The hell?

[He hits a few keys on the keyboard. Nope. it isn't going away.] Q? Girl, you been messin' with my computer, again?

[He looks around, but gets no response. Making a frustrated noise he hits the keys harder this time... as if that's going to make a difference.]

Frank? Frank! What I tell you 'bout playin' with my station, man? If you been usin' my webcam in those nasty-ass chatrooms again, I swear...

What's a Ditroxan?

[rainin_blk_ppl]

Somethin' you don't gotta worry yo pretty little head 'bout. Now how 'bout you tell me what's up with the whole [He waves his hand in front of the monitor] Community, people randomly showin' up on my damn computer thing.

[rockstark]

It's a little more than a chatroom, but occasionally I guess you could call it "nasty-ass". Usually it leans a little more toward off the chain.

Hi. Welcome to the community, I'm Tony Stark, I'll be your genius billionaire playboy philanthropist for the duration. How's it goin'? You know, sudden connection to a mysterious multidimensional computer network aside.

[rainin_blk_ppl]

[Now THAT gives him pause. Like. Half a second's worth. ... maybe a quarter of a second. He shakes his head, laughing]

Now I got Tony Stark hisself on my damn computer. What's happenin', man?

[pause. Wait. Wasn't there something he was asking about? RIGHT!]

What's the deal with this multidimensional computer network? How the hell'd it "mysterious" itself on my computer?

i am so sorry for this and if it's NOT chill, drop me a line

[papshooshing]

[ FORGIVE THE STARING. BECAUSE THAT'S WHAT HE'S DOING. IT'S ALL HE CAN DO. the face is completely human BUT BOY IS THAT A FACE HE'D KNOW ANYWHERE ]

AHAAHAHAHA Face confusion is ALWAYS fun

[rainin_blk_ppl]

[He stares right back.]

Boy what's wrong wichu? You the one who showed up on my damn computer wit yo slack jaw, bug eyed starin' [He waves a hand around his face] Don't tell me this is s'posed to be one'a them random webchat things 'cause, man I ain't interested.

[Video]

[im_wavin]

[Have a robocat!]

What's a Ditroxan?

[Video]

[rainin_blk_ppl]

They from the planet Ditrox. [He raises an eyebrow] Where you from, man? [pause] Uuhh... cat?

[video | untraceable]

[enma_ai]

It's not a chat room.

[video | also untraceable... deja vu]

[rainin_blk_ppl]

A'ite. If it ain't a chat room, what the hell is it?

[video]

[oceanicbutterfly]

[Have a major misinterpretation.]

"Frank?" Frank was real?!

[video]

[rainin_blk_ppl]

[... wut]

That depends on which "Frank" you talkin' 'bout.

[wormhole]

[ is that will smith???? ]

Maybe this could help clear a few things up?

[rainin_blk_ppl]

[Nope. Just a figment of your imagination. He takes a moment to skim it]

Yeah, see that looks like a lotta readin' an' I got work to do. Savin' the planet an' all that. Mind givin' me the cliff notes?

[hasbottombunk]

Um. It's not anything like...well, that, you know.

[rainin_blk_ppl]

Well if it ain't anythin' like... well... that then what the hell is it?

[heavenlyhome]

Welcome to the community.

[rainin_blk_ppl]

[He smiles sweetly at her. What?]

Thanks, girl. Now... would you mind tellin' me jus' what this "community" is?

[olbustedhotness]

[the video feed on this end shows the most bland, boring, nondescript break room ever. sort of like yours, minus the worms, and with more state-mandated notices posted around the walls.

a certain someone is in the middle of a ham sandwich when .... the old Panasonic he was watching the Weather Channel on flips to the feed. pardon him while he pauses mid-bite, mouth hovering over the sandwich, and stares for a second.

right. no catching flies, Kevin. he closes his mouth and sets the sandwich down with a sigh]

Aw, hell, damn thing ain't supposed to follow me to work. [ALL THE DISAPPROVING SQUINTING]

[rainin_blk_ppl]

[Waitwhat. What?! WHAT?! Is that? Noooooo it can't be. Can it? He's retired and working... at the post office.

Damn.

The word slips through his lips before he even has the hope of a prayer of a glimmer of a chance of stopping it]

Kay?

[godofabs]

... You speak, yet I do understand what you say.

[rainin_blk_ppl]

What? am I not speakin' slow 'nuff for you, dog?

[pettedasnake]

I don't think this is anyone's fault. The community just decided it liked you.

[rainin_blk_ppl]

Yeah, well who can blame it. What's not to like? How you doin', girl?

[greeneyed_demon]

I would be happy to help if I could, but I... really have no idea what you're saying.

[rainin_blk_ppl]

What? You want me to speak slower? Got a translator we ain't s'posed to have in the lab.

[docfoul]

Oh, my. You'll have a lot of work to do here.

[... Ah, what the hell. If he's going to mess around with Human Will Smith, he might as well open strong. So, Scratch turns on his video feed too.

In a very, very green living room (that at least provides a more comfortable background for his words) stands a short man in white.

He has a cue ball for a head.]

Hello.

[rainin_blk_ppl]

Sup... man? [Whoa. Cue ball for a head. That's new]

[Video]

[deadlydoctor]

[Ey you get an alien. Robot alien, but still. Something familiar at least.]

Ditroxans...?

[Video]

[rainin_blk_ppl]

[Saweeet aliens he can handle. Even robot ones. He smirks]

Yeah, you know, from the planet Ditroxan. From the Saurn galaxy. Where you from, man?

[Video]

[schrodingersghost]

That really isn't going to work.

[Video]

[rainin_blk_ppl]

[he raises an eyebrow]

What ain't gonna work? This? [He taps a few keys] Or this [He taps another few] 'cause it's hard to tell.

voice;

[hulk]

Even if this was an actual, you know, computer problem instead of... Well, what it is? The whole smacking your keyboard wouldn't really do anything. ...Especially the keyboard, it's the remotest accessory unless you're going to be on a laptop which I don't think you are.

Video, so there.

[rainin_blk_ppl]

Don't you go tellin' me 'bout technology an' shit. I know what I'm doin'. [sometimes] 'sides. I'm more worried 'bout this community thing showin' up all in my business like this.

[Video]

[sexbastian]

Why, hello there.

Need any help with this place?

[Video]

[rainin_blk_ppl]

[He smiles]

I could use a hand shuttin' the damn thing off.

[video]

[yumadbro]

Welcome to the community.

[His face when.]

[video]

[rainin_blk_ppl]

Thanks. I think it's a nice place to visit but I wouldn't want to live here. So, thanks for the memories but where's the exit button?

[hippie_hacker]

The community brought you to it. No one else did.

[rainin_blk_ppl]

Uuuuuh-huh. So an internet community jus', what? Got lonely an' decided to start recordin' my ass? Uh-uh. Not buyn' it.

[sandinmyboots]

Oh, our chats are nasty, but not the type I think you think they are!

[rainin_blk_ppl]

[He raises an eyebrow]

What kinda nasty we talkin'?
