| Opening Log

[shadowqueen]

Everyone's waking up at once, covered in bits of rubble, temporarily without abilities and with a lurking headache. The castle looms around them, irrepressibly gray, huge and silent. The only noises are the people, rustling as they extract themselves from their sarcophagi and look for exits along the arching walkways.

Better take a look around, and see if anyone else knows what's going on.

[Turkey knows full well how unsettling the lack of clear eyecontact can be. Not that he's going to do anything about it; it'd be pointless after putting the mask on in the first place, and a bit of intimidation never killed anyone. This guy's full-grown, anyway: no need to baby him.]

So ya say, but ya still look outdated by centuries and several of 'em.

Realm, huh - that an exaggeration or is there somethin' ya haven't mentioned?

[dai]

[It's a trust issue, nothing to do with fear. So for now he keeps his distance and simply watches the other carefully before looking back out into the realm.] I'm not interested in fitting in to your time.

A realm is a location, someplace to exist. I'm implying these surroundings are not our own. It's simple.

[songulen]

No shit, but realm's not exactly the first word that comes to mind when ya wake up somewhere outta the norm! Who cares, though, it works for me - don't recognise any of this shit. Somethin's off about it. Ain't just the obvious, either.

[dai]

We all differ in our opinions of words, I'm not judging your foul choices. [He wrinkles his nose and gives a wave of his free hand.]

Just the obvious? I think it's pretty obvious something's off about it. Perhaps you should elaborate?

[songulen]

Traditional, aren'tcha!

No, look, usually I've got a good idea of wherever the hell it is I've woken up - doesn't matter which country, I'm gonna know it! And excuse ya, no, it ain't just 'hey, this looks like Syria's joint' or 'guess I went drinkin' with Germany last night'. It's a feelin', thanks. And I'm feelin' like this ain't anywhere I've been or even heard of! S'fuckin' weird, but it's not like I expect ya to get it!

[dai]

Different in our positions of time, likely. [He gives the other a look before listening to what he has to say. The mentioning of Syria though--his eyes light up mildly in silenced curiosity.]

I think everyone has the feeling they are not anywhere close to home.

[songulen]

[Turkey sees that spark of interest, but he'll save asking after it in a minute or two. Can't have too many topics.] Eh, whatever that is or wherever we are, least we can do is get outta the basement before someone ends up chokin' on all the dust.

[dai]

Agreed. [Came his reply as he looked to the other.] Do you have a destination set in mind or shall we simply attempt to head to the bottom floor?

It seems wisest.

[songulen]

I dunno about wisest but I don't get a move on away from here I'm gonna be bored outta my skull.

[Never mind that yeah, he does want to see what's down there, so he's already walking away.]

Ya comin' or what?

[dai]

[Watching the other walk away he contemplates his options and they are few. So with a quiet exhale of breath he straightens his posture and moves after the other, stepping over the pieces.] Very well.

Being bored can be a dangerous thing after all.
