[ The video starts up but when the figure comes onto the screen he doesn't appear to be aware of the function. Holding the watch in the palm of his hand, he brings the other limb to his head and slides down against what appears to be a wall. Shaking his head to and fro, there are sounds of frustration that build up to a shout- he throws the watch

Just from experience, Tantrums don't solve problems.

[resolvetolive]

I know that! I--

[resolvetolive]

[ No Hope, bad. He straightens up and nods. ]

.. sorry. But.. this isn't normal.

[harrysbackup]

I know it's not. Just, calm down, alright? My name's Thomas. What's yours?

[resolvetolive]

Calm down, I can do that. [ A breath or two in can help with it too. ] I'm Hope. Do you know where we are?

[harrysbackup]

Okay, good.

[ he smiles a bit ] Okay, Hope. I know what this place is called, but I don't really know where it is if that makes sense. It's called Ruby City.

[resolvetolive]

Why's it called that?

[harrysbackup]

No idea. That's just what the sign says. "Welcome to Ruby City."

[resolvetolive]

.. Oh.

Does that mean you haven't been here long, Thomas?

[harrysbackup]

No, I've been trapped here a while. It just means answers aren't offering themselves up.

[resolvetolive]

Oh um... Is there anything you know that I should know, then?

[harrysbackup]

Right now? Look out for monsters.

[resolvetolive]

I'm used to monsters, but someone told me that before so I'll listen.

[ Taking out the boomerang, he nods and starts walking. ] How long have you been here?

[harrysbackup]

Too long.

It's...it really sucks to not have anyone around here from home, too. Where are you from?

[resolvetolive]

Oh, I'm from Cocoon. From what I've heard with others, you're from a different... world too?

[harrysbackup]

Yeah. Mine's called Earth. So, what's Cocoon like?
