A/N - Sometimes you just need a second, and things aren't so bad.

"How did you know that would work?" Chase asks Tobi.

Tobi smirks. He's moved away, sitting with his back against the side of the bed, his leg propped up as he leans against it. "I've never died, but I came reallyclose once." The smirk falls, replaced by a wistful smile. "As I was coming back, someone held me like that. It helped. Don't know why."

Chase knows that smile very well. It's the same one he gets when he thinks about the good ol' days with Stacey. "An ex?"

Tobi huffs a laugh, his smile widening a little in embarrassment. "Is it that obvious?"

Chase chuckles. He's still in a strange place, with no idea where, or how he got here, and sure he died again, but in this moment, sat on the floor, just chilling with Tobi, it's not all that bad.

"Are you okay?" Tobi asks, looking concerned. "I mean you were dead… For a while." At least an hour, so far as Tobi's aware.

Shuffling, Chase rubs at the back of his neck awkwardly, muttering something about it not being the first time that it's happened. After Chad died doing that stunt, Stacey walking out and taking the kids, everything slowly just started crushing in on him and…. He trails off and Tobi doesn't push. They just sit there. Yeah this feels a little less not bad.

After a moment Tobi starts to talk about everyone else in the building, making sure to go into detail about everyone's 'quirks' hoping to distract Chase. There's magic users, robots, Wilford, a cyborg, a tree spirit, Ed, a sort-of psychic, the Jims; then there's the nightmare child, and the tweedle twins who are magic and manic.

Tobi gives a shrug. "We're all a bit weird here. Coming back from the dead is almost normal in comparison."

"What about you?"

"What?"

"You mentioned everyone but you. Does that mean you're the normal one?" Tobi doesn't even realise he missed himself out. He shakes his head. "So what are you?"

"A trans-reality traveller with no powers who became a superhero."

There's a beat before Chase just bursts out laughing. It's not that funny but it's also hilarious. Tobi smirks and gets to his feet, offering a hand to Chase.

"You ready to face the others?" He asks as Chase stands. Tobi gestures towards the door. "Everybody's dying to meet you." He frowns and then laughs. "Okay that may be a bad choice of words."

Chase bursts out in laughter again. It's more nervous than anything but also, geez, Tobi. At the prospect of meeting the others he's hesitant. There is so much he doesn't know but he can hardly hide in here forever. Running a hand through his hair out of nervous habit, he panics! Where's his hat? He looks around frantically before spotting it on the table. He grabs it a little desperately and firmly pulls it onto his head.

Tobi raises an eyebrow at him but Chase just shrugs. It's his hat. It's important. With this hat, everythingseems possible. Together they head out the door.

The next room appears to be packed with almost the entire building's residents.

Bim is sat in the chair nearest to the door, his hands fiddling. He seems incredibly nervous. At the far end of the room King and Bing are sat watching the Jims trying to teach one of their card games to Marvin, the three of them sat on the floor. The poor magician looks at a complete loss. Mare is naturally sat nearby, watching but trying to look like he doesn't care. Ed sits in the corner, carefully watching everybody while tapping away at his phone. Probably trying to sell something else. The Host is sat a reasonable distance away, perking up as he hears the door to the room open, giving a slight smile. Both Green and Dr Iplier are scurrying around, trying to organise things. Google and the others are noticeably absent.

As the two of them enter, everyone stops what they're doing and looks up. It's almost like something out of a horror movie and Chase grimaces. Bim jumps to his feet, looking concerned, stopping when Tobi holds up a hand to get him to stay back.

"Everybody. This is Chase." The hero speaks clearly as he addresses the room and gestures to Chase. He smirks. "The immortal."
