x - 0002 [The Beginning]

[call_me_spooky]

We seek to persuade ourselves that the fabric of time and space is whole; we speak, if at all, of a tear, as though some fundamental, solid reality has been violated. A wound through which we pass out of our rightful world into some other space, some other time; another world

A wound... I en't so sure. More like it's just woven looser..

How much do you know abou this kind of stuff?

[call_me_spooky]

Loose like cheesecloth, evidently.

About parallel realities? I'm not an expert by any means, but I'm open to the possibilities. There's evidence to support the theory, though this whole through-the-looking-glass City thing is not really something I've ever imagined.

[lyra_of_dust]

Oh.. But they do exist, anyway. Some of us have been to them, before we got stuck here.

[call_me_spooky]

"Some of us" being you specifically?

[halfvulcan]

Not a bad idea, Mr Mulder.

[call_me_spooky]

Which idea?

[halfvulcan]

The letters of recommendation. Though, I had indeed forgotten that this dimension still makes use of money.

[call_me_spooky]

I guess I might as well take advantage of being well-known by people I haven't met, right?

Yeah, it does-- I forgot about that. Communism works out in the future, doesn't it? Evidently dollars and cents won't fly here, either.

[monochrome_mind]

You speak of an interesting theory there, Mr. Mulder. Still impressive none the less.

In regards to your residency issues, most of the apartments around here are free for the taking, with rent being an issue only a few weeks into your stay. However, many people have problems dealing with the ticking noise, more than anything else.

As for the Police Force, I would suggest having a word with Lieutenant Riza Hawkeye, as she would be the best person to discuss possible employment. Explaining your situation to her should be easy enough. I am curious to ask though...What position have you considered joining?

[call_me_spooky]

I met Lieutenant Hawkeye briefly-- I just figured I'd test the waters about getting recommendations first. I mean, it can't hurt, right? I'm not sure what I'd join up as, I guess it's more a matter of what they can use me for. I gather things are a little strange here, as far as organization goes.

The ticking is... really irritating. I gather that's why a lot of people get roommates?

[monochrome_mind]

You're right. There's no harm in looking into things. It's not all about what they need you for, but what you specialize in. Personally, I could see you gathering information, but also being active in the field. Perhaps you could do both?

Ach, yes the ticking can be annoying, which is why a roommate or pet is the best thing to do.

[call_me_spooky]

As long as I'm not doing background checks on farmers I'm a happy camper.

I used to have fish, I wonder if that'd help? I think I've got a place to stay, though. For the moment, anyway.

[tempzilla]

You still on about that whole "Fox Mulder" thing?

I've got a couch if you need it. Also got a young girl in the apartment, so you'd have to watch your state of dress.

[call_me_spooky]

Uh. While I do appreciate your kind offer, Ms. Noble, you scare the shit out of me I'm not sure you fulfill the criterion of being gentle... Also you're scary.

XDD oh Mulder <3

[tempzilla]

Oh well. Worth a shot. It's really not hard to get a place, anyway. You'll have a flat in no time.

[dresden4hire]

Hell's bells... it's really him.

I'm a wizard.

I mean, hi. Welcome to the City.

[call_me_spooky]

Nice to meet you, Mr. Wizard. I'm Fox Mulder. Contrary to popular belief.

[dresden4hire]

Nice to meet you, Mr. Mulder. I'm Harry Dresden.

[call_me_spooky]

Pleasure's mine, Mr. Dresden.

So, how's the wizard thing working out for you? It's not really a thriving field where I come from.
