pullsneedlesThe house is nice and clean and there's cider simmering on the stove. The table has a small buffet setup with curry and make-your-own-riceballs.
With how cozy the house is, it'd be hard to guess that four people could have ever lived comfortably here, especially when two of them were young boys. There's a big bed with a blue pillow and a dresser with a mirror, a scrap of red cloth, and a little blue shoe.
Outside, Wess, Lighter, and Fuel are all waiting with Boney and the sheep. There's a fence, a doghouse, and a small stable.
Each person is easy to tell from the others. Wess is clearly the oldest, somewhat short with white, sparse hair. Lighter is tall and muscular, stubble on his chin and a 2x4 on his shoulder. Fuel looks to be about the same size as Lucas, the light still in his young eyes. All three are bundled up, with Fuel running around with Boney.
"Welcome to my house," Lucas says as he brings everybody in.

It says that he had his wife disown him, call him a Bolshivik supporter, everything to tarnish his image to all of the public records, magazines newspapers. Then...he had to disappear, leave his family entirely. The government didn't have a leg to stand on, if they went after his family now, they'd be the worst men alive."
"See, he never told them that he had the ability to fly."
He sounds so darkly and supremely happy about that.
"The records of what the government official and his payoffs from the companies came out about 50 years ago, during Macarthy's push on the heroes in my world."
"Most damning evidence in existence."

"Macarthy. Guess he was an anti-superhero jerk on every world."
