Where In The Megaverse Is Victor Lazlo?

Unread post by SolCannibal »

Just something to exercise the imagination and have fun with - to what other kinds of places could Carmen Sandie...., i mean, Dr. Victor Lazlo, have been rifted to instead of the canon answer we got with Gathering of Heroes?

Feel free to throw in whatever weird ideas or images come to mind of imagining the good doctor in a variety of different settings or eras and how might he adapt or not.

-Atop a grassy knoll near a certain book repository.

-Stumbling around trying to find his way out of an office he'd rifted into...In the Watergate office complex.

-Accidentally knocking over a young Serbian who was coming out of a deli in Sarajavo. In his apologetic efforts to help the poor man get a new sandwich, they miss the commotion surrounding a certain touring car lost in the maze of streets nearby.

-Freezing atop a high mountain top where'd he'd materialized, and hoping the two people climbing up towards him can help him get down OFF this cold place!

-Arguing with a couple of FBI agents in a roadside diner about strange happenings going on nearby(almost like home!).

Missed guessing the first, Watergate, yes...think further back than the Bosnian War, those two guys likely never made the summit, and yes, the X-Files. :P

No ideas about the grassy knoll or the one about Sarajevo then, what's a damn shame.

JFK assassination and preventing the assassination of Arch Duke Franz Ferdinand (and thus delaying or preventing WW1)

The 1st i would never have clicked.
The Sarajevo one, oh yeah, now it all clicks.
The deli reference kind of sidetracked me, tend to misinterpret it due to not being a native english speaker.

In an aside going back to the agents, would Scully be a nega-psychic or just someone deeply in denial of the weirdness of her work and life?

My vote would be someone deeply in denial about it, because she's still there when all the weird stuff goes down, so its not like she's actively dampening the events.
