Roger had assumed that since Andrea had been a Sorcerer Supreme, her laboratory would be filled with magical artifacts.

In reality, the lab primarily contained technological devices, reflecting Andrea's early affinity with technology and her close relationship with Tony Stark. Most of the items stored here were Andrea's research outcomes, blending magic and technology.

At the center of the lab stood Andrea's crowning achievement, a suit of armor.

Crafted from vibranium, enhanced with magical materials and runes, it was a marvel of dual technological and magical protection. This armor had been Andrea's go-to equipment before becoming the Sorcerer Supreme.

And now... the armor belonged to Roger.

Though the armor appeared tailored for a woman, it had the ability to adapt its appearance. Once Roger bonded with it, the suit would automatically adjust to fit his body and alter its design and colors based on his preferences.

Moreover, it had none of the inconvenience of being cumbersome to carry. Andrea had paired it with another of her creations: a spatial bracelet.

This bracelet opened a magical pocket dimension linked to it, creating a stable, portable storage space. While the concept seemed simple, the creation process was anything but.

Across Marvel's magical systems, portable spatial items were rare, with even the likes of the Ancient One and Doctor Strange never demonstrating such tools.

Roger wasn't sure if this was due to disdain for such items or limitations within Marvel's magical framework, but spatial bracelets were exceedingly rare. Andrea had poured considerable effort into crafting this one.

And now... the bracelet was his.

"Turns out, every good multiversal traveler needs a spatial bracelet," Roger muttered, marveling at the device.

In countless novels he had read, protagonists often had some form of spatial gear. While Roger didn't see himself as a protagonist, life without such a device had indeed been inconvenient. Many items he wanted to take with him, like gaming consoles, were simply impossible to carry before.

Now equipped with the spatial bracelet, Roger could bring along a tablet loaded with movies and anime, as well as game consoles. Even if he ended up in a barren world, he wouldn't have to worry about boredom.

"You said something similar once."

As Roger admired the bracelet, Athena spoke up, startling him.

It took Roger a moment to realize that Athena was referring to Andrea. Due to Andrea's contingency programming, Athena had come to equate Roger with her, making such comments unsurprising.

"Did Andrea... say that too?" Roger asked.

Athena, unfazed, replied, "Yes. It was for that exact reason that you created the spatial device."

"Well, I guess multiverse travelers tend to think alike."

Roger chuckled, reflecting on how he and this mysterious predecessor seemed to share similar priorities. It was a shame he hadn't crossed paths with her earlier; they likely would've had much to talk about.

"Wait a second..." Roger frowned as a realization struck him. "If Andrea had a spatial bracelet to store everything, why did she leave all of you here?"
