Oh-kay, so this obviously isn't the Legacy... It's not like I could get on the wrong ship or anything but -- how do I just lose a boat?

...Huh. [EXAMINATION! This comm device looks pretty interesting.] Guess the red light means it's recording... Recording what.Hey, uh. If there's anyone listening on this thing, can you tell me where I am? I was

We were all doing something before we turned up here, mate.

voice;

[trytofindit]

If that's the case and this isn't some dream, then why are we all still here? [COME ON, PEOPLE, LOGIC.]

voice;

[7thborn]

Because this place is run by some lovely deities who keep us around for their amusement. Or something.

voice;

[trytofindit]

So let me get this straight.

I was dragged from the expedition to some-- alternate dimension or something with a city full of other people for... no reason.

Is that it?

voice;

[7thborn]

Everyone's got their own ideas for reasons. Including no reason at all.

[Pause.]

So, er, yes. That's it.

voice;

[trytofindit]

Well, that's... [Stupid.]

... How long've you been here?

voice;

[7thborn]

[Don't worry. She can fill that in.]

Stupid. Yeah, I know.

[Huff of breath.]

Two years this past December. But honestly, it depends-don't ask me on what, because I haven't any idea-though according to a friend of mine, it could be for however long we're 'interesting.'

voice;

[trytofindit]

Two years? I don't have time for this.

It has to be something and I need to figure it out. I can't be here for that long.

voice;

[7thborn]

None of us can, I don't think. Merlin knows I can't. But don't worry-time doesn't go on without you, back home. Everything's on hold until you get back.

voice;

[trytofindit]

No offense, but how do you know that for sure? [Sulk more, cabin boy.]

voice;

[7thborn]

Because I managed to go home once. I arrived at the point I left. Of course, I didn't remember the City until I got back, but... well, that was my experience, anyway.

voice;

[trytofindit]

And I'm assuming you don't remember how you left here either.

voice;

[7thborn]

[Very plainly.]

I opened my bedroom door and I saw home instead of the hallway.

voice; it's official, these are my favorite keywords

[trytofindit]

Wow. That's... really simple.

voice; AHAHAH OMG I LOVE THEM

[7thborn]

Didn't expect it to be, did you? Unfortunately, I had nothing to do with it. I just got lucky.

[A pause, and maybe the slight smile in her voice is audible.]

I'm sure you will too ... er, what did you say your name was?

voice; AS LONG AS SOMEONE LAUGHS, MY MISSION IS COMPLETE

[trytofindit]

[Give him a second, he's rummaging around his pockets looking for something.] Guh-- Seriously? Oh man...

...

It's Jim.
