Met the 'new friend' Zero'd mentioned. He seems ok. Had a snowball fight in the Nexus.

Saw the taller Mega-alternate again, and then a younger Kalinka. Normal for the Nexus.

I was hoping to have more of the Alphas around, with how Roll's been acting, but this was unexpected.

Two more Alphas that I didn't know existed. That none of us knew about. Timeman and Oilman. So far only Time's active, and he doesn't have his weapons yet.

Nice kid, too. Almost too nice, considering the way things are, but if Bubble's managed to survive without going nuts I think Time will adapt.

It's strange to think that after all this time, I'm not the youngest Alpha any more.

Also saw an alternate of Rock. He was bothering Time, so I stepped in. Kid doesn't even have his weapons yet. That's hitting low, even for Megaman.

Turns out that things didn't go the same in his universe. Light still turned us over to the authorities, but we didn't end up scrapped. Or with Wily.

I should have asked how they got out of the legal part of that mess. It wouldn't be any good for the rest of us, but it would be nice if Ice didn't have to worry about being captured if he tried to visit Roll.

Bad part is, from what he said, I think the answer is because they helped Rock fight Beta Squadron.

That's not an option for us, and shouldn't be. There's no way I'd turn on my younger siblings like that.

So many levels of wrong.

One of the alternate Rocks has another brother. This 'Pitch' had better hope that his name isn't an indication of what the Lights will do to him if he displeases them.

A few leads on finding Ice. According to Quint, Iceman was abducted by social workers. It sounds ridiculous, but at the same time I don't think Quint was lying.

I've also met two others from the same universe as the alternate of Crashman who was at Quint's party. Although I don't think helping to knock Airman out counts as a proper intruduction. Unfortunately, I had to leave before I could find out if he'd be ok.

Halloween soon. I may have a look at some of the parties that I can get to from the Nexus. If Ice has been mistaken for a child and is for some reason going along with it, there's a chance I might spot him at one. I'll have to remember to steal costume supplies.
