[Kelly is still recognisably himself, looking at the PORTAL camera. His hair's much shorter, and there's something more like an attempt at a beard on his face than the stubbly thing he sometimes allows. The biggest difference, really, is the uncertain way he holds himself, shoulder hunched forward, eyes darting away from the PORTAL occasionally as ( Read more... )

[Nekoda has been in Promenade for hours already, but has dealt with those initial moments of confusion and vulnerability all on his own. Has scouted out his surroundings, the building as well as the rooms he'd woken in, and has skimmed back through several months worth of PORTAL posts. What he's seen there has left him amused, and his smile is not ( Read more... )

[It isn't meant to happen during the day and the PORTAL comes on when a hand slams down on it in an attempt to keep the owner held upright. It's silent and shows part of Alea Iacta Est to any who may have come inside but something is wrong.

[The video opens as the portal is clearly being taken out of someone's pocket, the picture blurring as it is moved upwards to point into the face of a man. Some may recognize him as truncates.

The person holding the camera is none other than the elusive Zinc, even if he can't be seen, and his voice asks very clearly:]

I want to see your work.

[ Charles turns on the PORTAL to address the city, or at least the people he's met in his two weeks of staying in the city thus far. He's already wondering if he's actually going to ever wake up from the dream city, but, he won't be sharing that bit of information. ]I apologize for this sounding rather out of the blue and for the fact it is ( Read more... )
