After Sue comes back from freecasting lessons and inaugurating Harley into the exciting world of Jokers having sex with each other, Aegis asks him, "So who all knows what really happened to me? Anybody but you?"
"Howlett, Whitlock, Merryweather," he lists. "Nobody else knows about alternate worlds."

"I vaguely wonder what my parents think. I guess they can get the public story to start with, whatever we settle on. I think I will let those three know I am back."
She starts with Howlett and Whitlock, because she is not sure how to tell Merryweather he has an alt who's dating one of hers.
[Guess who!]

[Pff,] Aegis tells him. [It is me. Now you know.]
[Welcome home,] Whitlock says, which seems to be that.

[He took very good care of it while I was indisposed,] corrects Aegis loftily, [and will give it over as soon as we know how not to traumatize the poor fuzzy dear.]

[I was only gone for a few days but I was in this insane world where causality doesn't work, it was not fun.]
autokinetic
[Yeah. There was a Bell in it and the place kinda stunted her growth.]
autokinetic
[I mean like psychologically. She's shorter than me, but they all are except the boy one on account of zero gee and good old Battle School Science Diet. Do you wanna come to the next Bellparty?]

[I've heard about those,] he says. [Not sure if I like what I heard, but maybe you have a different take.]
autokinetic
[Lotta Bells, lotta people Bells know, Glass says being a template is contagious so maybe you run into a surprise.]
autokinetic
[It'll be in the Belltower, I think; after twice no matter how safe we think Jane is there is no way we're putting that many people in one world at the same time again without a Jane-independent way to get home. Or maybe Sunshine will host, there's a Jarvis there and they can do Milliways doors.]
autokinetic
[I will be a while catching up on how in the know everybody is, I guess.]
autokinetic
[I'm gonna tell Merryweather that Pattern is dating his rockstar alt now.]
[Hey Merryweather!]
[Hey Merryweather!]
autokinetic
She decides to just go for it. [Turns out Pattern is dating your rockstar alt!]
