It helped put things into perspective. Space was vast, literally infinite—he was a tiny mote in the cosmos. He needed thoughts like that to get over his jitters over returning home. Richard was rarely afraid of anything. He fought against the Surfer and Thanos and was still standing. Most people when they come home are overwhelmed with warm and happy feelings of nostalgia and when things were amazing.<br/><br/>He had left because his Disney movie didn’t quite work out. Yeah, she was a princess. All smart, exotic and well…a real live beautiful princess. She was from Atlantis he was from Hempstead. They butted heads, argued, fought and eventually realized that they had a connection. He loved her like crazy…she broke his heart.<br/><br/>Its why he left Earth if he was being honest with himself. He went back to the Nova Corps, learned to be a real member, put in the time…and then Thanos came out of hiding and wanted to annihilate his universe. Like dude, that is where I keep all my stuff.  He found Gamora and they fell into lust. Was it weird that she tried to kill him every day in what was supposed to be sparring? Well to be fair, her father Thanos was a universe grade jerk that killed off the Xandarians, so living with a constant deadly threat was probably for the best.<br/><br/>He had learned to fight from Chord who was like next level ninja and shit. Gamora was a space assassin, he didn’t know why that was bigger, but if you were a space anything it was bigger….like pirate/space pirate…see, way cooler. For years they were together figuring each other out, seeing if they actually loved each other or just needed each other during a time of war. Once again, heart broken when the war ended.<br/><br/><div class="floatright">(https://comicbookandbeyond.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/04/final-11.jpg)</div>He met up with Valkyrie…space Viking…see, still cooler. They became friends. Best of friends. No benefits, well other than learning to fight from a few thousand-year-old Norse goddess. And now the world was ending or the multiverse or something. People needed his strength. They just never really cared much what it cost him.<br/><br/>He flew around the rings of Jupiter, Saturn and Uranus when he reached those planets. It only right, flying around in circles, going nowhere until he worked shit out in his head. Yeah, he was getting nowhere. Who knows, maybe he wouldn’t meet her. Hell she was a princess, she probably forgot the kid from Hempstead. Still, he knew if she needed him, he would be there for her. It was just the way he was built.<br/><br/>With that sort of resolved in his head, he decided to go and report in for his first day of ‘work’. He turned on his Earth playlist for the way home. Because of the New Warriors he got to make friends with a lot of the super teams. That this new team was headquartered in the FF building was good. It was always a friendly family environment that Sue Richards set in place.<br/><br/>Ok that was a winged horse he just saw flying off as he landed. This was going to be good. “Hey everyone. Hope I’m not late for the morning meeting or anything.” he greets lady with the shield and guy who clearly owned the flying horse from his getup. “I’m Nova…you can call me Richard.” He switches to blazer and tie from his Nova uniform as he approaches.
