Surge sits on a bench, passively watching the planet turn underneath when a familiar voice asserts itself just behind him
"ah yes! quite the view and such, anyways I hear you're settling in a bit, which is excellent!"
Surge turns around and immediately recoils back when he realizes that 753 was leaning directly over him the entire time and asks
"h-how long have you been there?"
"a few minutes perhaps? I didn't really bother to keep track"
Surge gathers his composure and stands up to face 753
"you only ever don't bother to make yourself known from a comfortable distance when you want something, so what is it"
753 crosses his arms and would probably make a show of pouting if he had any facial features
"oh you're no fun, the best part of being nearly omnipotent is explaining things to the commoners. anyways I have an idea for an experiment, and it involves you"
"oh dear..."
"you see I try very hard to be discrete when I interfere with history for it's own good-"
"yeah you don't think most people are ready for what you represent"
Surge waves his arm to signal 753 to get to the point
"please don't interrupt I'm expositioning"
"that's not a word"
"I'll be the judge of that. anyways this means that sometimes I have to simply let things be for the worst, but then I was thinking about this place and I had an idea, instead of me directly intervening why not get some capable individuals from this world to intervene, as they would likely establish a connection with these universes at some point anyways, and it may as well be done at a time where they can do some good"
"so, where do I play into this?"
"well I can't very well just open a portal for these folks and let the flood gates rip, would cause more problems at a very precarious point in time, so I need somebody that I...understand, to lead things and make sure nobody makes too much of a mess"
Surge places a hand on his head and looks down
"oh man... so you want to put me in charge of leading a bunch of strangers to save a strange world I've never even visited from whatever you tell us is a threat?"
"well I suppose if they accept you as leader but I more need you to just keep their trail of disruption to a reasonable minimum"
"can I say no?"
"I suppose you could, but as I said, I understand you Surge, you may not like the idea of all this stress but I know that the idleness of staying here would be much worse on you, frankly I don't see how you could say no, but even if you do you'll change your answer before too long."
"...alright fine, so who are these other 'capable individuals' you wanted?"
"not sure yet, I'll figure it out and get back to you"
"...why-"
Surge is cut short by 753 suddenly disappearing into one of his portals, after which he quietly sits back down and stares at the ground in front of him.
