It wasn't.

[ he has no reason to hide his more recent cross-dimensional experience from strange since it isn't exactly a secret he's keeping. ]

Different universe. I was pulled there for nearly a year before I was caught by the Confluence here.

[rehandle]

[ A year. Something in him balks at it while the rest latches on, helplessly fascinated. It's new data. ]

Do you know what drew you there?

[ To go from barely speaking to grilling him about his experiences of another universe probably isn't a sensitive switch, but they are who they are. Stark can tell him if it's too much. ]

[voicelog]

[ he expects the question. people are gonna be curious and tony doesn't mind sharing for the most part. ]

A fragment of a dead god, believe it or not. Gods seem to be a running theme for at least two cross-dimensional incidents. I just want to know if this world will make a third.

[rehandle]

[ It makes about as much sense as anything else might when extra-dimensional abduction's the topic. ]

Let's hope not. Gods can be a real handful.

[ A little joke, this one not at either of their expense. ]

Rotten luck getting caught up twice in a row. Sounds more like my kind of mess than yours.

[voicelog]

Tell me about it.

[ but if it is another incident with a god, then at least it is an entity they can potentially deal with rather than something far more intricate and abstruse. ]

I'm not happy about it, but there isn't much I can do now that I'm here.

[rehandle]

No.

[ That's true enough. No use crying over spilled milk.

And with that said and the topic of gods and other universes effectively wrapped, Stephen returns to being distinctly aware that this is maybe their third conversation in person, and possibly still the longest. ]

... I'd better get food and get back. Enjoy your coffee.

[voicelog]

[ well, he can't say that he isn't happy to extract himself from the conversation. with a nod of his head, he lifts his coffee in a gesture of farewell. ]

You should try the burgers here. They're not bad. I'll catch you around, Doctor.
