WELCOME TO SNOW HELL

the journey | the door | the bunker | the lab

[Peter can at least claim to have some experience. Granted it's more from trying to save half the goddamn universe from a giant alien fuckball than it is from stumbling across creepy alien torture bunkers. He's seen worse, he can deal with this.

In the long run, at least. Right now he just needs to take a minute to get his head in the game.]

Ah, right. For the tropical Nazis, of course. Weird subject change, by the way.

[nonscriptum]

I'm trying to distract you.

[Nate says helpfully, a little defensively, because he thought the mental leap from bunker to bunker made sense in his head. It's unfortunately less effective in practice.]

They were looking for ancient power sources, y'know? Fringe science, magical artifacts. Weird Nazi stuff.

[itsnotaonesie]

I know what you're doing.

[Peter rolls his eyes, more in a playful way than in a shitty angsty teenager way. But shit, maybe the best thing to do right now is to just let himself be distracted for a minute. So, okay Nate, let's talk Nazis.]

They also bred their own turbo-cows, but right, I'm with you so far.

Okay, smartass.

[He's grinning, because it's better than thinking about what happened here. Almost anything would be better than thinking about what happened here.]

Was there an Ahnenerbe in your world? Himmler's pseudoscience think tank? Like the guys in Indiana Jones who wanted to find the Ark of the Covenant?

[itsnotaonesie]

[Oh he's a smartass and he knows it. He can't help but laugh a little bit, which he probably really needed right now let's be real.]

Yeah, for sure. Side note, it's pretty depressing how many worlds had Nazis, but continue.

[They couldn't have had superheroes in common, could they? It just had to be Nazis.]

They were looking for El Dorado.

[Nate keeps an eye on Peter - the further they get from the screens right now, the better.]

Got a whole U-Boat stuck up a river trying to follow clues the Spanish left behind. They found the city, but the locals weren't happy with them.

[itsnotaonesie]

[Peter's fully aware that Nate's doing the whole... protective old guy thing? Whatever that's called. He'd normally protest in that "dude i'm fiiiine" sort of way but then he'd probably miss out on a wacky Nate story and that's simply unacceptable.

In other words, the distraction is working. Good job, Nate.]

I mean, I can imagine. That's not somewhere people would just roll up into on the regular.
