This place is very odd. But that man is right. You're not alone, though; other people are used to a different date, too. I was.

[cruelwonder]

Really? What date are you more familiar with?

[herausgesucht]

I'm from [Late 80s/early 90s date goes here because specific canon dates, what are those.] And I'm originally from Germany, not Canada. But...maybe not the Germany in this world. I don't know.

[cruelwonder]

London, myself.

[Strange.]

How long have you been here, Miss?

[herausgesucht]

I've never been there. I always wanted to someday, though.

A little over a month for me. It feels longer sometimes.

[cruelwonder]

I'm not sure of what it looks like now, but it wasn't very pleasant when I was there.

That isn't too long of a time, thankfully. Perhaps this..."Core" will send you home.

[herausgesucht]

When are you from?

I hope so, eventually. There are some nice things about being here, but there are things I have to do at home.

[cruelwonder]

1875.

I can't say I can see anything so nice here, I'm afraid.

[herausgesucht]

Wow...you've come quite a long way.

I guess it depends what you've got to compare it to.

[cruelwonder]

The change was startling, certainly.

[That's such an understatement, though.]

Nothing good back home, unfortunately.

[herausgesucht]

I'm sorry to hear that.

There are things I don't like about this place, but other things are all right. It's really interesting, how much technology has changed--even more for you! And there's a lot of really, really good food.

[cruelwonder]

[Oh. That reminds her that she's a little hungry.]

I don't think I'll be much good with things for a while. Is it difficult to live and work here?

[herausgesucht]

I was lucky because a friend of mine is here and he helped you out. But there are a lot of newcomers like us here, so a lot of them help each other. There's even a fund if people need money.

Not all of the people who run businesses want to hire newcomers. But some of them are really nice--there's a man who runs a sandwich shop that always asks people about the worlds they're from. He says it's the next best thing to being able to travel and see them himself.

[cruelwonder]

Someone told me there is no fund any longer.

I'll need to see who is willing, I suppose. I didn't have much of a job back home but I'll do just about anything to help.

[Clearly Nina got busy for a couple of days and missed that and there was no brainfart at all :T]

What are you good at? There's bound to be something you can do.

[cruelwonder]

I've cared for some kids before. I can cook a little. [Not much.] I'm good with a blade, as well.
