"Technology is more advanced than on Earth," Steve reminded her. "This is pretty common, actually." He shrugged a bit.

Leia frowned at the holograms. They looked kind of sort of vaguely familiar in a way she couldn't place. A little bit like deja vu.

"That doesn't explain how it works," Diana replied, waving a hand through the hologram. "Light doesn't just stop moving at a particular point in space, it has to be obstructed, so how does it work?"

Woofie267 06-15-2015 05:06 PM

"I don't know, I don't make these things." Steve shrugged. "I just know how to use them. Do you know how everything you use works?"

Mageling 06-15-2015 11:46 PM

"At least vaguely," Diana replied. "Maybe not specifics, but enough that I can say 'it does this this way.'"

"Ask Tony later, he'll give you more information than you want." Steve shrugged and tapped a few more holo-buttons. The images reduced to headshots, followed by information. "Basically, what you need to know is this family is very rich and very powerful, Thor is going to show up sometime later today, and according to your genetics, you're related. We guessed by Odin, somehow." Another few clicks brought up Odin's DNA and then the girls', off to the side, showing the approximately 50% match.

Diana stared at the hologram, completely dumbfounded.

"You can't be serious," she said. "What do you mean we're related to them? We can't be."

Woofie267 06-16-2015 04:43 AM

"We're not sure how exactly yet," Steve said with a little shrug. "But the DNA doesn't lie. You two have the same DNA, with an approximate fifty percent match to Odin. So, royalty."

"That can't be right," Diana murmured. She looked at her sister, somewhere between shocked and overwhelmed. "Our parents never mentioned anything like this..."

Woofie267 06-16-2015 04:56 AM

"Yeah well they also weren't our parents," Leia pointed out. "They did flat-out admit we were adopted, Dee." She was having trouble wrapping her head around it too.

Mageling 06-16-2015 05:06 AM

"Even still, it's not like it was a blind adoption, Mom and Dad said our birth mother gave us to them," Diana pointed out in return. Her stomach sank as it all started to sort of make sense, in a twisted kind of way.

Woofie267 06-16-2015 05:10 AM

"As far as I know, there was never anything said about our biological father," Leia said, her voice lowering to a murmur. "So, technically speaking, it is possible..."

Mageling 06-16-2015 05:23 AM

"It's possible that we're half alien?" Diana hissed. "There are tabloids about this kind of thing."

Woofie267 06-16-2015 05:29 AM

"Technically, you're not alien," Steve pointed out. "You're human. You're just not the only humans. There are lots of other humans, too."

Mageling 06-17-2015 12:22 AM

Diana just rubbed her hands over her face, trying to buy herself time to think. This was all just way too bizarre.

Steve didn't push, instead poking his head out into the hallway to see where Bucky was with that food. Best to give the girls time to come to terms with this.

Mageling 06-17-2015 12:41 AM

Bucky was already on his way in with some food for the girls. It wasn't gourmet, by any means, but it was protein and vegetables and some starch and it was all edible.

"How'd they take it?" he asked when he saw Steve.

Woofie267 06-17-2015 12:44 AM

"Still adjusting," Steve said quietly. "Not surprising." His lips quirked. "One was curious about the technology."

Mageling 06-17-2015 01:00 AM

"That's new," Bucky said, grinning a bit. "Don't often see that."

Woofie267 06-17-2015 01:03 AM

Steve grinned a bit. "But now they're adjusting, hopefully anyway."

Mageling 06-17-2015 02:22 AM

"Well, food'll help," Bucky said, heading past Steve. He knocked on the door once, and then went in. "You ladies up for something to eat?"

Woofie267 06-17-2015 03:41 AM

"That sounds good," Leia said, peering at the tray curiously. "It's all edible, right? Nothing weird on there?"

Mageling 06-17-2015 04:39 AM

"I promise it's all edible," Bucky replied, setting down the tray. "It's the best we have right now, until we can stop for more supplies."

Woofie267 06-17-2015 04:43 AM

Leia looked at him for a moment longer before she moved forward to try a bit. "Not bad," she muttered. "Not quite normal, but not bad."

Mageling 06-17-2015 01:22 PM

"Glad you like it," Bucky said, a bit teasingly. He grinned.

Woofie267 06-17-2015 05:55 PM

Leia snorted quietly at him, shaking her head. There was something still off about him, but she couldn't quite tell what. "So what's the plan for the rest of the day?"
