[When the feed clicks on, there's a man sitting on a bench, amidst what seems to be one of the more lively areas of the ship. Is he lost, confused, or new? Maybe all of the above with stress on the latter, given the faint mixture of agitation and plain ol' disorientation on his features that all new arrivals seem to suffer through ( Read more... )

It's, er, apparently not an illusion. I did check.

Re: [video] magnetiferous August 8 2011, 06:19:48 UTC

You... 'checked'?

Re: [video] ofawitch August 8 2011, 06:24:25 UTC

[whoops]

I mean, there would be signs, wouldn't there? [she waves her hand absently] A tell of some sort.

Re: [video] magnetiferous August 8 2011, 06:28:47 UTC

[a dry response] I wouldn't know, though I suppose that would depend on how expertly such an illusion would be put together.

Perhaps, instead, a very vivid dream.

Re: [video] ofawitch August 8 2011, 06:32:59 UTC

I've got a bit of a sixth sense about catching people in their rubbish. [also a tad dry, but she sighs before continuing.] I wouldn't rule out the dream option just yet. Mad enough to be one.

Re: [video] magnetiferous August 8 2011, 06:38:10 UTC

Of course, in that case, my dreams are quickly becoming more worrisome than they even were before.

[An eight-legged alien walks past in the background.]

Even I'm not this creative.

Re: [video] ofawitch August 8 2011, 06:54:58 UTC

[she nods at the screen]

Are you sure you don't want to take credit? That was a quite a good one.

Re: [video] magnetiferous August 8 2011, 07:02:50 UTC

I've seen my fair share of extraordinary things in my life. They didn't involve aliens and spaceships.

Re: [video] ofawitch August 8 2011, 07:05:58 UTC

Well, you know what they say about aliens and spaceships in dreams.

Re: [video] magnetiferous August 8 2011, 07:11:15 UTC

No, I don't.

Re: [video] ofawitch August 8 2011, 07:20:04 UTC

Ah, well neither do I, I was always rubbish at Divination. So if this isn't some mad mass hallucination, that leaves the option that they've told us the truth about it, doesn't it?

Re: [video] magnetiferous August 8 2011, 07:24:27 UTC

A difficult truth to swallow; I was on my world not what feels like moments ago. [Yes, it was longer than that, but things had moved so quickly since then. He touches the small cuts on his face, right above the brow and scoffs.] Still fresh.

Re: [video] ofawitch August 8 2011, 07:33:56 UTC

It's like...taking time and sort of pinching it together at different ends. [she bites the inside of her cheek, watching the movement] I suppose anyway, as I haven't aged at all and I can't imagine any other way time travel could be successful. Those cuts look painful.

Re: [video] magnetiferous August 8 2011, 07:41:19 UTC

Like a thread that's been cut, but I'm still wondering who's holding the scissors.

[a mirthless smile] Well, as it goes... 'You should have seen the other guy.'

Re: [video] ofawitch August 8 2011, 07:55:36 UTC

Row down at the pub?

[that chilly smile makes her think "not exactly"]

Sorry, I've forgotten to introduce myself - Lily Evans.

Re: [video] magnetiferous August 8 2011, 08:05:24 UTC

["Not exactly" is quite the understatement.]

Submarine.

[Anyway.] Erik Lehnsherr.
