the blip meme - post avengers: endgame au meme

"The snap" is when everybody disappeared at the end of Infinity War but "the blip" is when everybody returned at the end of Endgame.

After the snap, so many people moved on with their lives, leaving who they were behind, only to have the people from their past reappear. It's been FIVE YEARS. Joys reunions will be had. Things will have changed. And some might have been happy to have certain people disappear entirely.

Now that people have returned, there's gonna be some weirdness experienced on both sides. Now go forth and play it out as you see fit.

You know the rules.

[ Her hands feel empty as she follows him back to the cafe. She may have the proof that he's there now, but there's no guarantee he won't disappear just as he had before. It's a paranoid thought, and she doesn't like it one bit. She's scowling over it as they take their seats. ]

I understand that. And I can't offer you any proof other than the word of everyone who was left behind. I don't like it any more than you do, but that's the state of things.

[ he's still, stiff, for a few moments before he shakes his head. he is not dismissing her words but just expressing disdain for the entire situation. ]

What has happened in the last five years?

[ if he has truly been gone, what has he missed? ]

[hacken]

We've been working.

[ She gives him the basic rundown of the past five years, the major events and the different jobs she's worked. Enough to give him an idea of the time, but not overwhelm him. ]

So...business as usual, I suppose.

[kgbs]

Working.

[ it just sounds so normal. so...he does not even know. illya rubs at his face and shakes his head. ]

I do not know what to think of this.

[hacken]

[ She flashes him a sympathetic smile. She remembers how confused and helpless she had felt when he had disappeared. Even now she doesn't really know what to do. But she knows this cannot be easy for the pragmatic Russian. ]

I don't either. Other than...well, it's good to see you again. [ That's the most simplistic way of putting how she feels into words, but it's the best she can manage. ]

[kgbs]

I just saw you.

[ and yes, he knows that that is not the same for her but he feels like he's just seen her. he'd blinked and she'd been there. he doesn't understand this and he doesn't know if he can accept it. ]

I apologize, I understand you think differently. But, I just saw you.

[hacken]

[ She nods. It's a tight, rigid motion. It still feels as though one wrong move might send Illya away again. ]

I'm glad for that, in a way. [ While she had struggled with losing him, she can only imagine the way Illya would have taken her disappearance. ]

You didn't suffer then. For you it is all a blink of an eye.

[kgbs]

I didn't.

[ he fixes her with a look. ]

But you did.

[hacken]

[ It's a statement. Not even a question. But the fact that he says it, point blank takes her off guard. Her stern expression begins to crumple, so she quickly looks away from his face. ]

It was...difficult.

[kgbs]

[ he starts to apologize but stops himself before the words fall from his lips he doesn't even know what he would be apologizing for. he sighs and rubs a hand across his face. ]

I wish I could remember.

[ so he could help. ]

I wish I hadn't lost...five years of my life.

[hacken]

[ She nods again. She certainly would have felt similarly in that respect. ]

I wished for quite a few things, myself, after that day.
