Network Noise [CLOSED]

[The feed kicks in with an accidental activation. Shuffling, loud, brushing noises herald a loud, muffled, angry, female voice.]

MORRIGAN! Where in the Maker's name am I? WHAT DID YOU DO?

[Slam! Rattle! Distortion. The louder words echo a bit in the cavernous space.]

WHERE AM I?

[Heavy breathing.]

You said I would live, but you didn't mention *this* - can you hear me?

[Deep breath. Calmer voice.]

Very well. I do not know where I am. This is not the Fade nor the Deep Roads nor anywhere I have seen in Ferelden.

[Muffled noise and scraping.]

Dear Andraste! Morrigan - please run, my friend. Loghain is going to be hunting you. Loghain... dear Maker.

CAN ANYONE HEAR ME?

[There's a wincing tiefling on the other end of this call, not that Elissa would know it. Still, there's some discomfort in her voice when she replies.]

Hey, hey, calm down. Stop shouting, gods. You're on a ship... city... thing. And probably there's not gonna be anybody here you know, so shouting at 'em isn't gonna help much.

My apologies, I did not realize that anyone could hear me. I do not see you amidst these... tombs.

[More rustling as she digs around in the footlocker at the end of the pod, unknowingly moving items over the 'box' of a communicator.]

That's because I'm not there. There's a communication thingy in that trunk thing at the foot of your little glass coffin. It might look like a little box, or a book, or a scrying crystal. That's what mine looks like!

Thank you. There is another voice that speaks to me as well. Tis male, by the sound of it. Is he with you?
tailforbrains: (guilty)

[personal profile] tailforbrains 2013-04-26 04:08 am (UTC)(link)
Uh, no. Nope. Don't know who that'd be, there's a lot of people with communicators. But you were pretty loud, I bet you get a few people poking you to tone it down.

[There's a pause, then she adds,]

You, uh, just woke up, huh? Pretty confused, I guess?

Aye, I am, but one called Loki Odinson has explained a few things. Tis an unwelcome surprise to find myself torn from my world and those dear to me, but it seems there is no easy way back.

I am Elissa Cousland. Who might you be?
tailforbrains: (wave)

[personal profile] tailforbrains 2013-04-26 05:12 am (UTC)(link)
I'm Neeshka. And hey, I'm pretty new here, too, so I get that. Besides, all this weird stuff is way beyond anything I'd ever heard of, before showing up here.

It's easy to find the city, just get out of the shiny metal thing and head downhill. There's free food and rooms here, which is pretty neat.
djinnigenie: (elright)

Now that *is* good news! What coin do they accept here? Is gold of any value?
tailforbrains: (facepalm)

[personal profile] tailforbrains 2013-04-26 05:54 am (UTC)(link)
Uh, well, mostly what I've seen, there's not much coin here at all. Nobody seems to have much of anything, really. It's all... barter. And... do this chore, to get this thing. And... this stuff is free, but it's really bland, and if you want anything better you'd better be willing to work.

[She might be a little frustrated with the lack of stuff to do and/or steal here. It sounds like she's rolling her eyes as she says all that.]

[personal profile] djinnigenie 2013-04-26 05:57 am (UTC)(link)
Do this chore to get this thing.

[Yes, that is definitely amusement in Elissa's voice.]

I know that system all too well. I am leaving shortly to meet with Loki Odinson in front of the ... flop? Perhaps we can meet later as well, Neeshka. I thank you most sincerely for helping to ease my distress. I look forward to meeting you.
tailforbrains: (surprised)

[personal profile] tailforbrains 2013-04-27 04:16 pm (UTC)(link)
Well, sure, if you want to. I'm around all the time, or I can show up at the Flop whenever if you wanna make a formal "hi, nice to meet you" thing.

[She's wondering a little whether Elissa will freak out when she sees the horns and tail. Surprisingly few people have, so far, actually.]

[personal profile] djinnigenie 2013-04-27 06:59 pm (UTC)(link)
I would like that very much. Tonight, I plan upon resting and thinking through this ... transition. On the morrow, I intend to scout out possible hunting grounds. Perhaps after that, we can meet?

[Oh, little does she know what the morning will truly bring.]
tailforbrains: (grinch)

[personal profile] tailforbrains 2013-04-28 04:21 am (UTC)(link)
Sure thing. I tend to stand out, so I'm sure you'll figure out who I am.

[There's a grin in her voice, when she says that.]

Guess I'll see ya tomorrow sometime.
