You know, when the Powers that Be told me it was my offramp, this wasn't exactly what I had in mind. It's got an old fashioned sort of feel here, kind of like Pylea, but no one has tried to enslave me or call me Cow yet so I'm guess it's not that much like Pylea. Which I should probably be grateful for even if it means hey, no one will be making me

Voice.

[stakesthings]

[.........]

[Oh my God, what. Buffy blinks a few times at that voice, and then clicks the Forge onto record.]

Cordelia?

[Talk about your awkward. For more than one reason.]

Kind of been a while, huh?

Voice.

[knowmypurpose]

[....Really?

Buffy, of all people?

Well that's....something]

I'd say so.

Voice.

[stakesthings]

Kind of a side effect of the whole death and dying thing, I guess. ...sorry about that, by the way.

[...wait. Time issues!]

Uh! You did... know about the death and dying thing, right? I'm not like, spoiling your future experiences or anything?

Voice.

[knowmypurpose]

Yeah, I knew about that, so no worries for spoilers here. I knew before anyone else did. [Which was weird, but that's how the Powers roll sometimes.]

So where exactly are we?

voice

[atonementsucks]

[...!]

[He knows people come in as abruptly as they leave. He knows that. And to be honest, he was kind of expecting it - or hoping for it. But he still sounds hesitant.]

Cordelia. You're here?

[what is his life even]

...you're here.

voice

[knowmypurpose]

[Buffy had mentioned Angel being here but there was still a part of her that was surprised to be hear his voice.]

It's me, Angel.

The one and only.

voice...... OR IS IT

[atonementsucks]

[Not as surprised as he was.]

I wasn't sure you'd come here. You know, your timing's be a little-- uh, wait, I can...

[he switches to video, but it takes him a moment. HE'S OLD OKAY.]

There, that's... working? Is it working?

[he's waving a couple of fingers because that is the universal sign for "is this thing on?"]

GASP VIDEO

[knowmypurpose]

Bad? Well it's not like I planne-

[But then it was suddenly a video of Angel and after a minute she switched hers to do the same.

She couldn't help but laugh a little. Figures that even in a strange new place, Angel sucked at technology.

At least some things didn't change.]

It's working, dork.

[demon_andbutler]

[He really should know better than to talk to people whose broadcasts he only understands about 13% of. But - she's a lady and she seems to be in need of assistance and he knows the answers to her questions. And so...

Have a posh-sounding British bloke, Cordelia.]

"Here" is a city called Anatole, Miss. You arrived through the Door, which is how everyone you can speak to on this device arrived as well. It acts as a sort of gateway between many worlds, all of which seem to end here.

Re: [Voice]

[knowmypurpose]

Anatole. Well, at least that has a better ring to it than Pylea. [Because that matters.]

The Door? They couldn't come up with a more creative title for that thing? Well, it works I guess.

[Voice]

[demon_andbutler]

I... suppose it does. [What.]

Ah. Well, yes, it is a tad plain. What sort of title would you find more fitting?

[Getting right to the important topics here, aren't they?]

[Voice]

[knowmypurpose]

Sorry. Long story.

[She thinks for a moment.] Not sure on the top of my head, but there has to be something better out there.

Video.

[supercilious]

Have you found your answers?

Video.

[knowmypurpose]

A few. I got filled in on the whole this is Anatole and this place sucks so much it could practically be a hell dimension bit.

Video.

[supercilious]

Has someone told you about the Mist? Or was that part of the hell, er, dimension, business.

Video.

[knowmypurpose]

The Mist? Can't say they have.

Videooo;

[turquoice]

No one will really try to enslave you around here. If they do, alert the Police.

Videooo;

[knowmypurpose]

Well, that's good to know.

...You're pretty little to be giving out advice. [Yep, she thinks you're a kid, Hitsugaya 8( ]

Videooo;

[turquoice]

[Oh my god, why does he ever use video ._.]

I'm not a child.

Videooo;

[knowmypurpose]

Oh. [She accepts this...fairly easily. Look, Buffyverse is weird, so who is she to judge?]

Sorry, you just look like one.
