[Early enough in the morning that it's clear someone couldn't get back to sleep, a series of doodles appear on the page: they're Sally's best estimate of the floor plan of her apartment, with little rudimentary sketches of furniture in various placements. Over the span of a half hour, several are drawn with different configurations and crossed out before one ends up circled. A check mark is drawn next to it for good measure.

She was too lazy to get out of bed and find real scrap paper, but she figured no one would care.

Much later in the morning, at a reasonable hour, Sally makes a voice recording.]


Right. I've got a question, much as I hate to ask it: since I've been a bit of a dosser when it comes to actually talking to people since I've come here, what with the rampant madness of...everything, and being busy with a few things, I've run short of friends who're willing to do me favors. That being said, I've several articles of heavy furniture that need to be moved up seven flights of stairs.

My usual find-help-moving-house tactic of offering free beer and crisps is moot here, but if there's anyone who can help me out, I'd be happy to negotiate some sort of payment. A favor in return, or something. As I said, I wouldn't ask, but...well. Some of you lot have magic and super strength, and I'm just a regular copper with one very slightly weak ankle. [A self-deprecating laugh that's a little more rueful than she intended. Sally really hates asking for help, but she also really wants her flat not to look like a room in a mental institution, so something had to give.] Thanks, everyone.

[In the afternoon, Sally can be found poking around the item shop, looking for home decorating items and some things she's hoping will show up from her world, and in the evening she'll be at the library doing some cursory research of other worlds and waiting for something interesting to jump out at her.]

I'm the best in my class. My dad says I should be an artist when I grow up, but I want to be a policewoman.

[And now her eyes shift back to Sally again with a cautious look.] Sanji said he talked to you. That was you, wasn't it?
flickerflash: (pff whatever)

[personal profile] flickerflash 2012-04-25 01:22 pm (UTC)(link)
He said that, too. [She fidgets.] I'm sorry I don't remember you. But I don't remember lots of things right now.
flickerflash: (are you sure?)

[personal profile] flickerflash 2012-04-25 01:57 pm (UTC)(link)
I don't know that part, either. I just woke up in the forest. I'm okay, though! [She does hasten to add that, totally earnest.] It's just I'm missing things. Um. Buffy said I might have been kidnapped.

[Which, as she can't remember it, doesn't actually worry her too much.]

[At the voice, Vivi turns, a smile spreading across her face as she recognizes the woman.]

Oh, yes! Sally-san, wasn't it?

How are you settling in?
justicereigns: (Let it all slip away)

I'm not really a hobby person. Just reading, training self-defense at the barracks, and stacking rocks.

[He chuckles.]

Alright, then.

It's fine, he never was the most open person anyway. He's doin' better than I woulda' thought here, and that's what matters.

It's the largest museum and research complex in the world. Government sponsored with the majority of the institution located within Washington D.C., we have more than 140 affiliate museums around the world. It is a very impressive, and very prestigious, place to work.

[But it's not necessarily a surprise if Sergeant Donovan hasn't heard of the Jeffersonian. At least, not given multiverse theory.]
lostinmyway: (Small happiness.)

[She gives her journal a bit of a confused look. Back home, the law enforcement is, well...this. Being surprised at helpfulness, then, is an odd thing for her to imagine.]

My, that's too bad. [She smiles.] But it's all right. I'm sure you'll be used to it soon.

Well... he's had to learn to adapt.

Which one a' those are you?
lostinmyway: (Hmm I wonder....)

[personal profile] lostinmyway 2012-04-29 03:10 am (UTC)(link)
Hmm.... Have I?

[Grune has a few...difficulties with her memory.]
