[ It looks like one of Dudley's laptop computers. Harry stares at it. It's definitely not wizard made. He looks around the room for a means of escape and finds nothing. Maybe… He starts randomly pushing buttons on the device until it crackles to life.]

Er… Can anyone hear me? Is this some kind of radio?

Hello?

[ Desperately relieved to hear a voice responding. ]

HELLO?

[He blinks at you with some surprise - as far as new arrivals go, you're probably one of the most panicked he's heard. The desperation in your voice doesn't go unnoticed, though, so have a (hopefully!) comforting smile.]

Err. First of all, calm down? The device you're holding isn't just a radio, and it's capable of broadcasting a video message to the network, like what you just did. Everyone accessing the network at the moment can hear you. If you have questions--which you probably do, if you just arrived here--simply ask them. Someone's bound to try to answer you.

[Harry is rather sick of being told to 'calm down', but he grits his teeth and doesn't yell.]

Right. Thanks.

I've had a few questions answered.

I still don't really understand what anyone's got against these witches, though. Witches that no one's ever seen? That the people who brought us here have told us are 'evil'?

Why should I believe them?

Do you believe them?

[The visual feed flickers on to show the face of a boy, likely around the age of sixteen with shock-white hair and a scar down his left eye and down the side of his face. He does look quite concerned for the new arrival and certainly feels for his plight in terms of being pulled from his own world at war, but he decides to be cautious while this young man seems, understandably, quite agitated.]

Excuse me? Sir? Clearly you are new here, can I offer some kind of assistance?

[Harry takes a deep breath and forces himself to focus on the little screen. He sees a boy not much younger than himself. Is he one of the people who brought Harry here?

Harry grits his teeth and determines to get out of the cave first and worry about who is and isn't friendly later.]

Hi.

Yeah.

How do I get out of here?

[Allen offers a faint, apologetic kind of smile at this. The young man's panic, to Allen, makes complete sense and he feels the frustration is very justified. He does opt to remain as calm and polite as possible here though.]Hello there ( ... )

[The boy's calm, respectful tone makes Harry go silent and he's actually able to listen.]

I... I meant the room. Although, yeah, the whole place too. I really need to get home. I don't know anything about this war.

Is it bad? [Are there people here who need help?]

Thank you. Really.

[Harry looks towards the doors and wonders that he was too agitated to notice them earlier. He supposes he should go through them and see what's out there.]

Hey, you're not the only one who'd rather be back home! You don't have to go throwing things around.

[Aladdin's irritation doesn't last long though. He didn't miss the fact that Harry had mentioned people dying]

I'm sorry about the people who died.

[The device doesn't seem to have been destroyed by having been thrown against the wall, but Harry's anger and frustration levels are not helped by this kid's comments.]

Did I say I was the only one?!

There are others? How many? Wizards and witches?

Oh.

[He tries to calm down a bit.]

Thanks.

No, but you're doing good job of throwing a tantrum. [glares a little, then sighs. He can understand the anger, really, so he tries to not be snappish]

Wizards? I don't know of any wizards, but there are witches. They're the enemy, apparently. [scratches his head] I don't know how many there are.

[Harry glares rather a lot into the PDA.]

And I suppose you were perfectly calm when they took you.

Or are you one of them?

So it's some kind of sexist anti-magical crusade? And I'm just supposed to go along with it?

[Have a red-haired guy with an eye-patch belatedly flipping on the video. He's wearing a yellow hard-hat, the kind that seems to denote he's at some sort of a construction site. And he's got a cigarette dangling from between his lips. When he lifts his hand to it, he inadvertently displays bandaged fingers--fingers that might well have had a few accidental close encounters of the hammer kind. He sounds bizarrely nonchalant.]

Keep your shirt on, man. We aren't all sitting at the DEMISE all day like some offshore call center.

[Harry's head is about to explode with all these people telling him to calm down when his entire world has just fallen to pieces. He breathes. He breathes again.]

Keep your own shirt on! What the hell is a demeeze?

[Eyes momentarily skyward, muttering the first bit more for his own benefit than Harry's.]

Yeah, I damn well better. Sun'd take the hide right off me. I'd be red as a tomato.

Desktop Email and Miscellaneous Internet Spam nEtwork--DEMISE. You're soaking in it, and so are the rest of us. We can all hear you, man. We're just kinda short in the tickets back home department.

How many of you are there?

And how many are there of them?

But, um, did you say Hogwarts? I think there's someone here from there, too! His name's Snape-san. Do you know him?

Re: [video] boy_hoo_lived April 30 2010, 12:23:18 UTC
[Snapeson. What's that mean? He takes one hand off the laptop and runs his fingers through his hair.]

Yeah, Hogwarts. It's a school. It was badly damaged in the battle, and--

[He freezes.]

Snape? No. Snape is dead. What did you say this person's name was?

[video] rosy_wings April 30 2010, 13:30:14 UTC
Snape. Severus Snape, I think? He said he was a professor at that school.
