((The convinced of coming in now is, as you've probably noticed, me and sid kind of went off on a pretty hard tangent where we just kind of kept the main plot on pause for like, what two-ish years now I think? So You can pretend like he never left if you'd like.))

((Alright.))
Ben walked outside, looking down at his phone. He clearly wasn't going outside with a purpose and it was obvious that he was simply pacing, absorbed in his screen.

"Looking for a hook up on Grindr?" Roger called in a dead-pan tone.

Ben looked over and stuck his phone in his pocket. "None of the bears are matching with me," he said, walking towards Roger.

"Contrary to popular belief, most gay men aren't in to fems." Roger said back, in somewhat of a lower voice, tapping his cigarette to get rid of the ash at the end of it. "How are you holding up, watching an alternate reality version of you in a relationship with an alternate reality version of my mom?" He brought up more to see Ben's discomfort then actual genuine concern.

"Not the worst thing I've seen. Top 5, but not the worst." Ben said. He sounded drained, like he didn't feel like fighting but felt obligated too. This, of course, was nothing new to Roger.

He took another puff. "Okay, so what are you actually doing right now?"

"Nothing." Ben answered. "Literally, nothing."

Roger rolled his eyes. "Of course-- how foolish of me to think you'd be doing anything proactive these days. Like always, too busy feeling sorry for yourself."

"Sorry, I forgot to snap my fingers and fix all our problems." Ben scoffed. "I'll do that when I go back inside."

"What are you doing, then, Roger?" Ben gave in return. "Just out here to kill your lungs?"

"I just got back from looking for Alyssa, actually. I told Gunther to get his pack on the lookout for her in the city-- one of them saw her around downtown-- but there wasn't a trace of her when I got there."

"Yeah, sure, I'll just call up one of my connections to ask for help and - oh, wait." Ben stopped, paused, and sighed. "Look, if I thought there was anything I could be doing to prevent the imminent destruction of everything, I'd be doing it."

Roger sighed, having given up. "Fine."
