       "Putrefaction only happens somewhere between three-ish to five
       or so days after death. So if he pushed up daisies fairly
       recent, you don't have to worry too much about the decay." Vito
       said casually in response as he gave the old man a nudge with
       his foot before Levy started encasing him. He was fully
       collected even as Levy began to tentatively explain the
       situation with him, he seemed to adapt to the strangeness
       easily. If that was a product of his military training or simply
       a byproduct of his lessened humanity in the midst of said
       military training, it was hard to say. Either way he was
       desensitized to whatever life seemed to throw at him, for better
       or for worse.
       "Hopefully that one is less of a douche than the Ellie we had
       here. Proper twat that one was, still encased in crystal or
       whatever the fvck condensed timey-wimey bullsh!t he spit out.
       Sucks to be him, lucky for Al he was outta the blast zone and
       well yours truly got stabbed a bunch but that kind of par for
       the course these days." He said stuffing his hands into his
       shorts pockets as he began striking casually long side Levy.
       "Didn't know you took up being a taxi service." Vito teased
       bumping his shoulder into Levy as they walked leaving the masses
       to begin murmuring and taking out their phones, all buzzing
       about about God Spear's sudden reappearance. "Ya know, it's kind
       of weird seeing him back. I went to one of his public memorial
       slash vigil thingys a few months back. Lots of candles and food,
       real nice time actually.."
       Vito went on to explain a bit of what happened after a year of
       Levy being MIA. It was an event that had been dubbed the
       'Crystal Calamity.'  It was lame but the media really leaned
       into it after the disappearance of the number one hero, it was a
       tragedy they spun in the favor of painting it more like him
       having subdued some 'heavy hitters' from the league of villains.
       No one wanted to admit that they had no clue what the fvck had
       happened. With some rich kid with time powers, a persuasive con
       man and an escaped military grade psychopath at the center of
       it, with God Spear and Boneyard MIA it was no wonder the media
       wanted to play it up so hard or else the public image and
       support of heroes would have taken a seriously negative hit.
       Al, ever the opportunist, took advantage of that, of course and
       gained a strange sort of cult following deeper into the villain
       scene doing whatever sort of things he did at his leisure. Vito
       on the other hand, didn't have the same resources and had
       decided to "lay low." Well as low as he knew how to anyway; like
       not trying to square up with Apache helicopters or going on any
       more hero murdering sprees... though now he was still wanted for
       both the murder of the hero Bunny Girl, of which he was wholly
       guilty of and the disappearance of God Spear, which he was less
       guilty for.
       "So we going to go see a necrophagey type? They give me the
       willies." Vito said making a sour face for a moment but he still
       seemed to fall into step waveringly beside Levy on this
       endevour, hardly bothering to question him on his reasoning for
       anything he was doing, as if simply going along for the ride in
       a carefree manner. You'd think Levy had asked him to simply head
       down to the corner store and grab something he forgot with the
       level of causality the two carried. "You seem... different."
       Vito said tilting his head curiously his dual tone eyes studying
       him for a moment.

       "And you're just the same as ever." Levy retorted to Vito. "I
       did always admire your resilience. You never seem to have a
       problem being squeamish or anything like that, even when you get
       all messed up. That's pretty badass." Levy's eyes turned upward,
       indicating his smile beneath the concealment he wore.
       "You're also one of the few people I can trust with this but I
       don't want to talk more about what happened over there until
       we're outside of Silo's hearing range. Silo, a professional hero
       working for the agency was one of the best known secrets they
       had. Anyone who was even a few days on the crime scene knew the
       heroes had a way of keeping tabs on what was going on around the
       nicer parts of the city. That way, was Silo, whose power let him
       listen in on any locations he had visited before.
       Honestly, it was hilariously inept that Silo couldn't hear
       everything in the city but the agency decided to send everyone
       waivers so they could operate whenever they wanted, legally, as
       long as you signed. Naturally it was spun as trading a bit of
       freedom for a lot of protection but the less pristine sides of
       town declined, making it harder for the heroes to listen in and
       making it easier to ignore the places they were needed most.
       It was nice to have Vito around again. Regardless of being able
       to fully trust the swinging whims of his twisted mind, Levy
       figured Vito like him enough not to try to kill him in his
       sleep, which was sadly an improvement over other coworkers he's
       had in the past. "Yeah. We're headed to the waterways on the
       edge of town, the ocean side." He said, kneeling down and
       popping the cover off of a manhole below him. "Nobody's gonna be
       listening in there, I remember someone saying the waves give the
       Listener a headache." Levy sighed as he peered down the dark
       hole beneath him.
       "I'm glad Al got onto his own thing. It'd suck if folks kept
       taking advantage of him just because he's OP, ya know?" Levy
       stood with one hand holding the coffin over his back and the
       other on his hip, speaking with Vito as if they bumped into each
       other at the store. "Thanks for the factoid on rotting though, I
       think it'd be better to get this done sooner than later. I don't
       know if you come back all brand new or if you stay the same." He
       scratched the side of his head in wonder before shrugging. "I'm
       just trying to think of our future selves not having to smell
       dead a$$ for the rest of our lives."

       "Oh you flirt!" Vito teased in regards to being complimented,
       all be it in a weird twisted confession of admiration. Though a
       piece of Levy could tell that Vito seemed to actually be
       deflecting with humor for a second as if not wanting to pay
       credence to his 'resilience' remark. For just the briefest of
       moments a flicker of Vito's truer feelings seemed to surface,
       but before one could possibly read into it further his tone
       switched, as if to protect himself from his own feelings, or was
       it to protect himself from you? It was impossible to tell.
       Without a second to reply Vito stepped clear out over the
       manhole dropping straight down only slowing his decent via the
       ladder part way down. "You coming or what?" He called up his
       voice echoing with mischief, he was clearly no stranger to
       navigating in the true underbelly of the underbelly aka "The
       Upsidedown" what scummy sorts called the highway of networks
       that the sewer systems allowed.
       "Huh. You have a good point! I guess it depends on how their
       necromancy works, I'd wager it could be anything from, like, D&D
       resurrection all the way to shuffling mall of the dead zimbo
       action." (Zombie-Bimbo... clearly) Vito seemed to make scales
       with his hands back and forth as if weighing the extremes. "The
       Zimbo would probably talk less." He said with an amused snort
       and a laugh that echoed out in the rounded tunnel systems.
       "I haven't been to see the ocean in ages." Vito said with a wide
       grin across his face but as he spoke those seemingly innocent
       words he felt a searing heat tear through his veins as cycling
       images flickered like wild fire spreading out consuming his
       minds eye. He heard the sounds of screaming clashing with the
       lapping waves, gunfire crackling like logs in a fire, the wet
       sand under feet mixed with a wash of red as the waves lapped at
       a foreign shoreline like a tongue attempting to soothe a wound.
       A second later he blinked and shook his head looking at Levy
       again, his tone suddenly playful and carefree as he changed the
       topic again.
       "Yeah I'm so happy for Al, he seems to have a good thing going!
       I don't really get it but different strokes for different folks
       I guess." Vito said in earnest himbodom with a big grin
       returning to his face as he took his time almost dancing between
       the cracks in the different cobblestones underfoot careful not
       to step on the mortar cracks in-between the stones. It was as if
       he was making a game out of it as he traveled along, not even
       needing to be directed on which way to start heading since he
       knew the way. He wasn't as dumb as most people assumed, he was
       clever in his own right but that made him all the more dangerous
       at times. Though Levy was right in regarding Vito's propensity
       for violence being unlikely to be directed at him. Due to their
       understanding of one another, Vito seemed to chill a bit. Maybe
       it was because of their abilities being similar, or perhaps
       simply because of their tragic pasts but there was no denying
       the odd kinship they had shared after Boneyard had met up with
       their strange little musketeer bunch. Levy still never knew the
       motives for Vito joining up with the original crew to begin
       with... Was there even a reason?

       While not everything about Vito was cut and dry, that was
       something Levy never put any concern toward. At least he knew he
       was on his side, most of the time that is. Regardless, after
       what he had seen in the other timeline, it was nice to have his
       Vito back. Levy leapt down shortly after nursing his thoughts,
       landing with a resounding thud and a casual pose. Alongside
       Vito, the pair's eyes began to adjust to the darkness.
       The first few corridors of the sewers were intentionally left
       unlit, especially nearby easy to spot entry ways. Most folk that
       used the sewers were so familiar with them that they didn't need
       their eyes to navigate them anyway. It was a simple way to
       discourage interlopers and heroes alike. This did lead to many
       children cooking up ghost stories about the sewers, which
       honestly checked out considering it was where an actual
       necromancer lived.
       "It's been a while since I've been down here." Levy admitted.
       "At least on this side." He followed the old pathways he
       remembered, lucking out and making it all the way to the first
       heavy iron door of the trip. Levy walked up to the door and
       stopped. "Did they change the number of knocks?" He asked Vito,
       sure he was in the know about the sewers. After an event like
       what took him and God Spear out, he had no clue what else could
       have changed over on this side.

       Vito chuckled awkwardly at Levy's question as he rubbed the back
       of his neck. "I uh... can't remember the number of knocks so I
       usually just sit outside the door and get their attention until
       they eventually let me inside." He said while knocking himself
       on the head with his hands and sticking out his tongue to make a
       stupid memey face, all while still taking steps backwards hoping
       back and forth from one leg to the other. "I think they changed
       it to like six knocks  or the catchy beat to that one new doja
       cat song?" And this is why people think he's stupid... But he
       was right, it was the doja cat song 'MOO!' which of course
       caused Vito to start humming 'B!tch I'm a cow' as they continued
       to walk to their destination.

       Levy gave a light sigh at Vito's response. "Right." He mumbled
       as Vito started humming and singing. During his time with God
       Spear and being forced to work together to survive their shared
       ordeal, he had forgotten what it was like to have help that
       wasn't so... helpful. "Can you tone it down?" Levy grumbled as
       he pressed his forehead against the firmly locked iron door.
       "I'm trying to think..."
       Just as Levy stopped to think for a moment, he reexamined what
       Vito had just said. "Wait... You don't mean..." He turned to
       look at Vito with a surprised look threatening to raise his
       eyebrows. "You mean to tell me there's a new Doja Cat song?!"
       Levy's voice skipped a beat with excitement as he abandoned the
       roadblock in front of them. "There wasn't even a Doja Cat where
       I was for the last year. Talk about a cultural graveyard." He
       scoffed, mostly joking but holding a sliver of seriousness. He
       as a huge fan of Doja Cat in his free time, maybe bringing her
       up was Vito's way of commiserating with Levy or maybe it was
       just a coincidence, it was always hard to tell with him...

       "Duuuude, there's no way! I'd probably walk out into traffic to
       have a date with truck-kun." Vito's shocked expression seemed
       more distraught now than he had upon hearing the news about the
       multiverse. "I'll have to show you it, sh!t slaps." He said
       pulling a phone out of his pocket, it was covered in bedazzled
       rhinestones of rainbowy hues and had a small little off brand
       hello kitty-esque charm dangling from it's corner. Notably as
       the screen flickered to life in the dark of the tunnels a large
       crack across its surface could be seen stretching from corner to
       corner diagonally. Vito always seemed to have a phone on him
       that very clearly wasn't his. Probably snatched up from a bar or
       purse... or corpse. Depended on the day he needed a new one;
       where most people would simply buy burner phones, he had found a
       very different method that seemed to, for better or worse work
       for him, especially since he could fairly easily bypass most
       phones simple finger print or facial recognition software for
       obvious reasons.
       He pulled up the Musicfy app and pulled up the song in question
       and began playing it, it's catchy tune amplified by the
       acoustics of the surrounding tunnels. It surprisingly worked
       well for just such a purpose, thanks sewers! Near the end of the
       song, a cheery chime sounded as an alert of some kind popped up
       on the phone. Vito glanced down at it expectantly and opened the
       new link alert. "Awww... we just missed Duplicity making an
       appearance in low town!" He said sounding a bit dejected as he
       pouted slightly. It seemed his strange sort of one way
       attachment to the Hero hadn't lessened one bit in the last year,
       even his burner phones were set to alert when her name popped up
       into Media online. "Man I bet God Spear is talking to her right
       now and everything... d!ck." He mumbled before shoving the phone
       back into his pocket with a dramatic sigh.
       "So you said we were going to see a Necromancer, yeah? What's so
       important about bringing Ele back to life anyway, it's not like
       you need to get home anymore so why not just dump him somewhere
       and be done with it?" Vito asked curiously as he walked
       alongside Levy looking over the man's expressions searching for
       answers. "Surly you didn't like his company that much, so, is
       there like more you need from him? Is it even alright to keep
       someone from somewhere else here? I remember seeing a couple
       movies that hinged on plots like that. Evil twins, paradoxes,
       clones and all that shite makes messes." Vito said snickering
       under his breath as if amused rather than worried about the
       potential dangerous such elements imposed. Forever unbothered by
       the things he couldn't be troubled to try wrapping his mind
       around.

       "Oh, him?" Levy responded as he looked over his shoulder at the
       coffin resting against the sewer wall. "I don't really know. I
       guess I'm hoping he can help us take down the heroes on this
       side since he definitely wasn't on their side over there." He
       thought for a moment before continuing. "Besides, it's never a
       bad thing to have someone with time manipulation powers owe you
       their life." Levy gave a light chuckle but he wasn't entirely
       kidding. Now that he had seen what bad eggs in the basket could
       do to the balance of things in Requiem City as a whole, he was
       more determined to build up his own strength as well as those
       that would want to fight the Agency to keep living life the way
       they wanted and not under the boot of the ones at the top.
       "I'm going on a limb and trusting God Spear to do what he said
       he was going to do when we were working together the last year."
       Levy explained. "He said he was going to investigate the agency
       on this side and look for any bad apples. That's fine and dandy
       but as far as I'm concerned, whether they're breaking any
       imaginary rules or not, they deserve to be dethroned." His
       signature angst seemed to begin boiling to the surface again,
       not completely tempered away with the journey he had made to
       another dimension. "We weren't dumb about it." Levy continued in
       reference to God Spear. "We knew we wouldn't be working together
       like Sherlock and Watson when we got back here but we did see
       enough bad to agree we don't want that happening back home
       either."
       Levy sighed and walked over to the coffin resting on the wall
       nearby. "I'm not gonna force you to trust him or any of the
       heroes, not after what those bastards did to you but if any good
       can come from keeping the golden boy alive then I'll consider it
       done. That's about as far as I'm willing to parley with a guy
       that used to represent everything I thought was wrong with the
       world. It was only after seeing a worse world that I realized I
       was focusing on the wrong things."

       "Couldn't see the forest for the trees aye?" Vito said as if
       pondering Levy's words, it was hard to say to what importance he
       seemed to categorize this whole ordeal as with always he was
       tough to read. "So you and Pike Jesus are trying to take down
       the H.A. but um... why the hell would you do something like
       that?" He said looking genuinely perplexed for a moment, a
       reminder of the level of delusion Vito lived within on the
       daily. He truly separated himself from being a villain entirely,
       but then again he was ultimately what Blackwatch made him... a
       weapon of mass destruction, problem was they simply couldn't
       control him. And so here he was, a puppet with no one to hold
       his strings, like Pinocchio with PTSD and no Jimminy Cricket to
       be his conscious. Well aside from Alice, anyway... but Levy was
       none the wiser about that
       "They're part of like all major emergency orgs, fire, police,
       even rescue; so wouldn't that throw the whole city into a tizzy?
       As funny as that would be to see some of those jerks squirm, I
       could never do that to my girl." He said with simple conviction,
       a weird casualty still strung to his tone as he rapped his index
       finger to his cheek when suddenly his expression turned cold.

       Levy gave a moment to choose his next words carefully. "I'm
       pretty sure she's one of the good ones." He surmised with a
       slight shrug. "She was on the other side too, though, she was a
       bit different over there." He thought back to the version of
       Duplicity he had met, she was very similar in behavior and
       personality as the one Vito was so fond of, but she certainly
       matched his asthetic more on the other side. There, the woman
       sported edgy, fishnet laden clothes, tattoos, and a good deal of
       piercings.
       "That's what I meant though, about changing my sights. I want to
       weed out all of the corruption festering beneath the surface of
       the Agency. My ultimate goal is just to make sure people can
       live the way they choose, not the way they are forced to by
       super human dicks." Just as he was finishing his reasoning, Levy
       stepped back over to the locked door, no further along with
       their journey than when they started, really. Without much of a
       second thought, Levy found himself tapping along to the new Doja
       song against the door while he tried to strategize what to do to
       move forward. That's when he heard tapping from the other side
       as well, to the same beat.
       With a sudden wash of disbelief, Levy continued repeating the
       beat which then echoed from the other side as well. With tired
       eyes, he craned his head back to Vito and held his gaze as the
       door suddenly began to shift and open. "I guess you did have the
       answer, in a way."
