Jaime's cell phone is more or less plugged riiiight into his brain, so he tends to pick up like 99% of the time! If not, however...

"Hey, Jaime here! Leave a message, and I'll get back to you ASAP."

They should follow the same rules as the cops. Or as the cops should follow. You step in if you think someone else is in danger but if they aren't then you go for talking. It's only after that that you actually need to take someone down

And I mean I think that people would be a lot more willing to accept advice from people who talk first yknow?

[She's going to learn the truth soon enough, and all those headlines about "Blue Beetle Talks Down Gang, Gang Joins Fanclub" and "Blue Beetle Suggests: "Have You Tried Talking?" will make a whole lot of sense.]

Haha, yeah, I was going to say. There aren't too many cops who ACTUALLY follow the rules, are there. But...Sometimes I don't know! This is their world, and they were living in it and solving their own problems well before we came along. Us meddling with their lives...Doesn't it feel weird?

There are some people who have been away from their own worlds for years. We don't know if it's going to be the same for us but as long as we're here this is our world too. We have nowhere to go home to.

So for now it's our home too.

Maybe...I don't know! It seems like when you come to a new home, you don't immediately start fussing with the things of the person who was already living there, do you? Telling them where they ought to keep things, what they ought to do. And you definitely don't start disciplining their unruly kids for them.

Yeah but people aren't disciplining people for them. They're handing them straight over to the police which are the people who are in authority in the first place. If we actually tried to deal with it ourselves we'd get arrested

Ugh, I guess. It still just feels really really wrong.

We have people like that back home too you know.

Refugees from different planets. Lots of them can't go home because there is no home for them anymore so once they come to Earth they band together with the working government to try and make their new home a better place.

It's not something I'd put a time limit on.
