Testing, testing... need to make sure that this thing is operational.

Hello? Hello? Is anybody out there? My name's Miriama, and I need to find a safe refuge here. I'll reward you kindly for your services. I'm guessing that this is a long, long way away from home.

Mission has begun.

Johnny, my lady! What part of the city were you dropped in?

[insinuo]

I'm on some kind of boulevard. Is that of any help?

[skybound_love]

Do you know which? Or better yet, what buildings are around you?

Are you currently being pursued?

[insinuo]

No, I've got no idea. But I think there's an "L" in the name. There are a few apartment blocks around.

Not yet. ... pursued by what?

[skybound_love]

Ah, Latimir. Our living area is there. You're not too far off, then.

We have roaming creatures in the outer zones. Are you alright?

[insinuo]

About how far away am I? I can probably make it there myself, then...

Oh, I didn't know that there were any. I'm fine at the moment!

[skybound_love]

Not too far, just head toward the lights, that's us. I'll head out with a flashlight to meet you partway. Johnny would be remiss as a gentleman if he simply left a woman by herself.

What world did you come from, my lady?

[insinuo]

That would be appreciated, thank you... I don't want to trip over something that I'd regret meeting.

Oh! I came from... Earth. I think it was called that.

[skybound_love]

I look forward to it.

Same here! 2180, though.

[insinuo]

Me too. Do I get a name?

Wow! That's ages in the future...

[skybound_love]

Johnny, my beauty. Johnny Sfondi.

What time are you from?

[insinuo]

It's nice to meet you!

I'm from 2018.

[skybound_love]

Johnny always appreciates meeting a gorgeous new friend in this dismal city.

Ah, I see. Not from my Earth, most likely.

[insinuo]

A flatterer, I see? Don't worry, it gets you far with me.
