[ Momo can tell her friend is struggling with this, and she understands. It's a lot to reckon with. And the fact that no, there isn't really a reason for it, certainly doesn't help matters. She would love to tell Ochako that they're here to be heroes, to parrot the party line the United States government officials at Cape Canaveral tell people when they arrive.

But she can't lie to her. Not when she knows the truth. ]


I'm afraid there isn't much more to it than that. The Porter chooses people-- seemingly at random, though there are some patterns you can see if you look closely. It decides who to bring, and when, and who to send home, and when. Sometimes it brings people back, and sometimes they remember... But sometimes they don't.

[ She frowns, then takes a deep breath, and looks Ochako in the eye with more conviction than she's showed in a long time. ]

But, that just means it's up to us to decide what we do with our time here. This world doesn't have pro Heroes the same way ours does, but there are a few teams that serve much the same purpose. I have an internship with one of them, the Justice League. I'm sure they would take you on as well, if you wanted to continue your training here.
