001 | I forbid ye maidens all | [Video]

[The woman posting to the network has sharp features, grey-blue eyes, ash blonde hair, a black leather jacket and a very large cup of coffee. Seems someone has found the kitchen. She looks faintly surprised as the wall unit comes on, then frowns at it.]

So I guess that's what these things do. Okay great. A network.

[To cover her hesitation, Toby takes a large sip from the coffee, then shakes her head.] At least the electricity wasn't shut off entirely. ... You'll have cut me a little slack while I get used to this. I'm not really much one for, uh, "social media" and stuff. Never thought I'd have to use a cell phone in a place like Wonderland, but there you go.

[Another awkward pause.]

Oh, right. I'm Toby, I'm from San Francisco, and I would really like to go home. Any help with that, that would be great.

[A shrug, and Toby shuts the thing off.]

Curiouser and curiouser. As in the princess and the guy from Sherwood?

[notrequiredtomakesense]

The very same. Apparently Robin Hood has spent some time in a suburb somewhere and was asking about diner food.

[blood_lines]

Diner food.

[She considers it, and then shrugs.]

I guess I've heard of weirder.

[notrequiredtomakesense]

You live with weirder.

[Just saying]

[blood_lines]

If you want to get technical, I am weirder.

But. Beside the point, I think.

[notrequiredtomakesense]

Yes. The point being we are currently in Wonderland. I've learned just how far the rabbit hole goes, and I have to say I am extremely unimpressed.

[blood_lines]

And that the way out isn't as easy as waking up from a midsummer idyll. Werewolves and legends...

And getting used to calling you Rand on a regular basis.

[notrequiredtomakesense]

Just in public. I don't care what you call me in private.
