[ The phone taps on as Jane bumps into it. She turns just in time, the camera catching her face as it hits the floor. ]

Oh, crap. [ She sighs and skitters to pick it up, looking it over. No damage. Good! Then she looks behind her then back at the phone. Muttering to herself: ] Well, I was planning on asking. Sooo, it might as well be now. Right?It

action;

[ He's heading out of his apartment for the day (seriously hoping that if he's granted something from home it's a place he can move to because ugh these regulated apartments) when Jane's message pops up on the mobile he was poking at. Curious, the music he can hear in the background matches what's coming out of the open door not too far down the hall from him. He walks over and sure enough the young woman moving about is the one from the video.

He knocks on the open door to get her attention. ]

[chasesstars]

[ Jane is rushing around her apartment, turning things over and looking under blankets and tables. ]

I thought I had more! Crap. [ The knock catches her attention and she turns her head, looking at Snape. Then she jumps up. She looks at the wall, the music, then at him. ] Oh, um... sorry. Is the music too loud?

[tenpointsfrom]

[ Snort. And he's actually not even trying to be intimidating. Maybe if he was bothering with his outer robe but even then. He's got no issue with the young woman. Yet, anyway. ]

Not at all. I actually live upstairs. [ For now :| He holds up his phone. ] You are the one asking about where we are all from, yes?

[chasesstars]

[ She's a bunny. She hops and squeaks awkwardly, okay. ]

Uh, oh. Uh, hi. [ She smiles nervously. ] Yeah. That's me. I'll take anything you can give me.

[tenpointsfrom]

[ Oh wow. That's a new one. She just radiates awkward ... and bunny hopping. ]

Technically I have two distinct answers for you then as where I lived and where I worked were far apart from each other. A third if you include that this is not the first odd city I have been abducted to.

May I come in? [ Hey awkward squeaky bunny let the man in. ]

[chasesstars]

[ Boing boing. ]

I'll take all of them. [ Jane motions him in and grabs her sticky notes. ] ... "odd city." Is this thing called Aliunde?

[tenpointsfrom]

[ Stepping around le hopping bunny to get inside and sit on one bit of uncovered chair. Hey, he knows how he gets when his notes are everywhere so he'll respect her research enough to not move it without being told it's fine. ]

It is. So you have heard of it before. Were you there yourself?

[chasesstars]

No. But, I have met a lot of people here who were? I've never heard of it before this place.

[tenpointsfrom]

Nor had I until I was chosen to live there. It is odd that several of us who were there have been brought here. [ But ... welcome in a way. He has some bros to commiserate with. ]

[chasesstars]

Maybe they like you?

[tenpointsfrom]

How fortunate for us. [ Snort. ] As for what universe it was in, I do not know.

[chasesstars]

Have you met anyone else here from your version of Earth?

[tenpointsfrom]

Yes, one other. She also was brought here directly from Aliunde. I could provide you with her locations for your research as well if you would like.

[chasesstars]

[ Jane nods. ] I think a name would work for now.

[tenpointsfrom]

Lily Potter. [ Bleh Potter ] We have known each other most of our lives. [ That's safe enough to say without hoppy science bunny getting the full story. And accurate enough ... from Lily's standpoint since he has those seventeen extra years she doesn't. ]

[chasesstars]

Okay. I'll keep an eye out for her. [ She writes 'LILY POTTER' on the sticky note. ]
