A: action upstairs at 1447 Mitchell Road

[Immediately upon waking, Canada's fully aware nothing's right, nothing's as it was. Which has her in panic mode, ready to fight anything that comes at her while she explores the room she woke up in. It's nice, in its own way, except the door is locked and the drop from the window is a bit more than she's

Ooh, a way out... Now, see, love... That might be a lil' bit difficult...

[welljustwatchme]

[Oh, thank goodness, someone else who could pass for a British soldier.]

You're Australian!

[thatsnotaknife]

[Sighs.] Yeah, yeah, yank. 'm Australian. "G'day, crikey, put another shrimp on the barbie." Happy?

[welljustwatchme]

Yes! Not because of that, though, but because you can help me because we're on the same side. Look, I have to get back to the Canadian camp in West Flanders. It's very important.

[thatsnotaknife]

... Snowy's still got a camp set up there? Would've thought Bell'd kick him out by now.

[welljustwatchme]

... Snowy's a... funny nickname... [For other people. Totally applicable when her cousin-thing gives it to her.]

[thatsnotaknife]

Yeah, I thought so.

[welljustwatchme]

And, umm... what's Snowy's real name, if you don't mind my asking?

[thatsnotaknife]

Cana-something.

[Yeah, he remembers Canada's name, but it's so much more fun to pretend he doesn't.]

[welljustwatchme]

-da.

[She sighs. Not again.] Tell me, Oz, just for kicks: what year is it?

[thatsnotaknife]

Right that.

2010- Well, 2011 by now. Town reckons it's the fifties though.

[welljustwatchme]

Thank you. [She almost wants to tease "at least I'm closer than you are~" for the sake of something being normal, but this is not really her Australia. Which is sad. And not normal.]

[thatsnotaknife]

No worries, love!

Now, whose you, then?

[welljustwatchme]

Umm... I'm Canada.

[thatsnotaknife]

No you're not.

[welljustwatchme]

Yes, I am. Just a different one. I'm going to take a wild guess here and assume you're even flatter than Oz usually is? [Teasing and fact-gathering all at once. Canada is an old pro at multi-tasking.]
