[Here's a man in an obviously homemade shirt walking off the train. He's curious of the watch and easily learns how to handle it.]

Okay. I'm assuming people can hear me on this thing so I'd like to know what was going on right now. Where am I and how do I get home? And by home, I mean Earth.

[Sam was passing by, doing rounds with her Zat strapped around her thigh. Instead of a uniform though, she's wearing black pants over her boots and a sweater over an obscured gray tee.

It's his voice that makes her stop and it takes her a moment to speak.]

Ja- General O'Neill, sir. You'll have to specify which Earth, there are several people here who claim that they're from Earth and they're all different.

[A pause while she's eying that shirt. God, why does it look so familiar?]

What are you wearing, sir?

[Jack stares at little at the obviously older Carter talking to him. He looks behind him as if she can't be talking to him. He wasn't a General. No one in their right mind would make him a General.

He wasn't sure what to say. After three months of being stranded without rescue, he was here. With Carter. And yet with her hair so long it was obvious something was wrong.]

...Carter?

[Except the United States Air Force. They probably thought the only way to get him to stop disregarding some orders was to make it so he had no choice but to give them.

A slight nod.]

Yes, sir. I'm sorry to say that I'm the only person that will greet you that you'll recognize. We're not on any world accessible by a Stargate.

[Jack stared a little more. Mainly at the hair.]

Carter. What's with the hair?

[lousygoodfriend]

Correct assumption. Welcome to Ruby City. Ah... I do believe you are on Earth, if my own suspicions are correct. But I'm afraid you're a little stuck in this town.

I can attempt to educate you to the situation as best as I can, if you wish. My name is Kanaya Maryam, and it's my job to make sure you're assisted as needed.

[stuckbymorals]

Well thank you, Miss Maryam. My name is Colonel Jack O'Neill. Help would certainly be appreciated.

[lousygoodfriend]

Absolutely! Very nice to meet you.

You've been brought here to currently unknown purposes of our captors. There are many others like you and myself, unable to escape. There is, however, free food and shelter. I myself have a hive close by, and I may head over as soon as possible if you need me to.

[stuckbymorals]

And you too.

Sounds like a day at the office then. Thanks.

[ergaleomancer]

This is Ruby City. It's an inter-dimensional nexus in-between worlds and dimensions. There's also no way out as yet. You're more than welcome to join the escape effort, though.

[stuckbymorals]

Sounds like something I'd be interested in.

I'm Colonel Jack O'Neill. Nice to meet you, ma'am.

[ergaleomancer]

It's sir. Elizabeθ Buckley; pleased to meet you as well, though the circumstances could certainly be better.

I'm the town ergaleomancer; if you have need of my services, I'm near the theatre.

[stuckbymorals]

My apologies. And they certainly could be.

I've never heard of ergaleomancers before. What exactly are they?

[There's a Daschund eying the feed for a second. What sounds like a girl's voice comes over the speakers.] "Ah, Toge.. There it is. Sheesh! Why didn't you tell me where this went?"

[With a bark, the dog vanishes as Goro picks up the communicator, looking into it curiously.] "You're in Ruby City, and you can't go home.. Sorry. It's popula a thing. Nobody can."

[Goro sighs and then speaks again, trying to make things seem a little less "everything's horrible"] "But the city is.. Er. Well.. It's okay. Not as nice as Tokyo, and it's kinda weird sometimes, too."
