[A smug-looking Rumplestiltskin is back on the network. After being gone, to anyone who might have noticed (read: Belle, and possibly Loki), since Friday.]

Well, that was a bit of an adventure. It's good to be back. Even better, though, to have discovered something of import.

[He turns the crystal's viewer away from himself, to show where he is: the home of the murdered woman from the week before. Some people might recognize it, but most people probably won't. Thankfully, they have narration.]

This is the home of Nadia, that lovely young woman who died last week. In her own home, no less. In this very room. I have discovered the identity of her murderer. Behold.

[He's enjoying this, can you tell? There's a pause, and then the room swirls with purple smoke. When it clears, said young woman is there. She's sitting in her living room with another familiar face, the librarian page who turned up dead Thursday with two others. They're drinking tea. Nadia picks up the dishes and moves off to the kitchen with them. The visual follows her, as does her killer. They're chatting, though the vision has no sound, so no one can tell what about. As Nadia finishes the dishes, her back to her friend, he walks up behind her and slits her throat neatly. Thankfully for the potential children watching, their backs are to the video feed, so all anyone sees is the woman crumpling to the ground. Rumple even politely turns the feed away before there's more than a little blood.]

Very interesting, wouldn't you say? They were apparently friends, and he is acting in quite an un-librarian fashion. Even more interesting, given he turned up dead, not two days later. Food for thought, is it not?

[And with that, he turns off the feed-- and gets the hell out of that house before someone shows up to arrest him for trespassing on a crime scene, no matter how old. He'll be responding to things in a minute... once he's someplace a bit safer than here.]

[A pleasant backdrop of green fields and sunlight can't mask the concern that's pursed Pepper's lips and given her expression, always attentive, an added layer of sharp attention.]

Does anyone have information about what's going on with the sky? Has there been another attack?

I can't seem to raise Tony, so any information would be appreciated.

[Locked to Belle, Thor Odinson, Loki Odinson]

In response to Dr. Solus' inquiry yesterday, I would like to name all three of you as my stand-ins regarding my medical treatment and physical belongings were I to fall and be unable to administer to my own affairs myself, and hereby empower you to make any necessary decisions on my behalf.

[Her voice and manner are incredibly formal as she makes this collective statement. She still might not fully understand what exactly this is all about, but she definitely gets that it's something to be taken seriously.]

I don't have any specific requests to make of you. Hopefully this will never be necessary anyway. But on the chance that it is, I thought it best it'd be fully established ahead of time.

I trust all of you to use your best judgement should you be called upon to act in my stead. If there are any other questions you have for me in this matter, please ask.

Oh Maker's Breath-

[Alistair pauses. His voice sounds like it's a bit far away; he's holding this new alien device far ahead of him, trying to figure out exactly what it is, nevermind the fact he already knows how to work it.]

Not Ferelden. Definitely not Ferelden. One would think they'd remember coming to a foreign place, just a night before a big event that could determine the fate of the world, but no, I've got no bloody remembrance of anything. Dwarven ale is great, Oghren said. Put hair on your chest, he said. Not wake up in a weird place and nearly nude. Horrible pranks, really. This must be some witchy plot. Swooping everywhere, I know it.

[Elissa's expression is uncertain as she looks into the camera. For those who have visited Kozmotis' big home in the woods, it is obvious that she is sitting in the central area. The head of an enormous dog rests against her arm as if trying to look into the camera as well.]

Please forgive the intrusion, but... Has anyone seen Kozmotis of late? Dane and I have searched the surrounding woods, but tis difficult to track the man due to his shapeshifting abilities. If you have seen him or if he is with you, please let me know that he is safe. He has not answered his communications device.

Thank you for your time.

[The large dog whimpers and licks at Elissa's worried face as she cuts the camera.]

I've heard about the collars that neutralize a person's magical abilities.
Do they still use those in this new Verdana?
If so, how do they react when used on a non-human?
Are they turned human too or are their abilities simply taken away?

Do you mind if I ask you a favour?

[The video flickers on, water blurring the feed a little.]

Gods below... [A mutter and then Atticus is flopping over on his side to look down on the camera. He's shirtless, laying in the grass in the woods somewhere getting rained on but grinning so wide he must not care. Anyone that knows him will note that he's got his tattoos pressed firmly to the earth beneath him which accounts for the relief in his voice.]

So... uh... [And it takes him a moment to decide what's safe to talk about on the video. He's a little addled after more than a week in Nowhere.] How much trouble has my hound been causing?

[A smirk. Yeah he was going to sprawl out in the grass anyway but there's another reason he's on the ground.] Missed you too, Akito.

Hi. [ he's not sure what to say, so he goes with regulation; he clears his throat, his tone going official. ]

My name is James T. Kirk, and I'm Captain of the Federation starship USS Enterprise, [ he falters: ] not that that... really matters here, I guess. [ a half-hearted attempt to return to sounding official: ] I got here- "woke up" --roughly two nights ago, and, [ and it falls apart. ] I've gotta say, for a city in the middle of what was reportedly a bountiful forest, I'm feeling underwhelmed by the cuisine here. Is there any place around here to get something good? I'll eat just about anything, I just [ he laughs quietly. ] ...can't cook. I can hunt if I have to, but I'd rather go with someone until I learn the basic lay of the land.

Mm, and while I'm here, I need to get a job or something or I'm going to go insane, so if anyone needs a fully-trained starship captain...? I'm your man.

Thanks. [ awkwardly, because he's not sure how to end this transmission: ] Kirk out.

[The face on the network now is not a happy one. This beaky-nosed older gentleman, with his expensive suit and tie and his lightly feathered hair, looks rather coolly displeased. The background is that of the outside of the ship, since he’s apparently found his way out, though he hasn't gone very far yet.]

I’m not sure just who thought it was a good idea to be kidnapping people? But I can assure you, whoever you are, it was a very. Bad. Idea. You have kidnapped entirely the wrong person.

[When he smiles, just one corner of his mouth turning up, it doesn’t look particularly cheerful. It looks a little threatening, actually.]

Whoever is behind this, I have much more important things to do than dealing with you, but believe me, dearie, I will make the time if I have to. I’m assuming, whoever you are, you’re paying attention to things said on this device you left me, so I’m sure you can see this. Send me back where I came from... and I might decide not to make you sorry.

[And he waits, leaning back a little in the camera’s view, both hands resting on the grip of his cane. Somewhat impatiently, and fully expecting someone to say something back-- whether it’s a smart something... or a stupid something. He has places to be, and he’d rather not linger here longer than he has to.]

[What begins as merely trying to catch a meteor on record for his own personal interest and for various friends rather quickly became something else entirely. And Lyall spent a few minutes afterwards figuring out how to upload what he caught on his device onto the network.

So everyone gets a nice video of the second two thirds of that falling object's trajectory, and a couple seconds of the beginnings of a warm glow on the horizon. Then they get Lyall coming on the screen right after. He's out in the more local woods, dressed only in his coat, and looking a little bit rumpled, for once. His voice, however, is a bit deadpan as he speaks to the practical and pointedly doesn't mention the bit about the thing from space.]

I believe there may be a fire starting in the western forest. If there are still Authorities monitoring this channel, someone may wish to be dispatched to contain it, unless there isn't much risk of it spreading too far.

[Hi there people of Verdana. There is a man with a dog, both trying to look especially harmless. In fact the dog's main purpose on the screen is to reassure everyone that Atticus really is nothing to worry about.]

Well this has been barrels of fun, huh? [He can't hide the slightly sheepish look, he's trying really hard to though. Publicly taking the blame for the whole... altered time reality thing isn't something he's really looking to do but he's gotta know how much of this is him and how much is... anyone else.

Someone had to screw up something along the way right? It wasn't just him.]


Just out of curiosity did... anyone [And there's just enough emphasis on it that someone remarkably perceptive might catch the quiet anyone else that is faintly implied by his tone.] do anything in particular that might have caused any of... well... time shenanigans? Not the traveling bit but the arriving part of the deal.

[Private to Belle]

Hey, I know you're probably busy with all the changes but can Oberon hang out with you for a couple days? I guess the lakes are still intact but I've gotta see it for myself.


((OOC: Fari warning! Genesis might be threadjacking periodically as she is staying with Atticus now and likely hovering nearby laughing at him.))

[Zevran has been trying to ignore the fact that the book found with his gear upon his awakening has been talking. Given that it looks almost exactly like one of the mages' tomes that even he felt would be better not to light-finger, the sounds couldn't possibly be anything good. But the book would not shut up, and the strange place he was in was providing no answers. He turned to a page within it that seemed to be some sort of Fade portal made paper, and after tracing a few moving symbols with a wary fingertip, a blond elf appears on the network.]

Ah, this seems to be working at last and does not seem to have transformed me into a newt. Wonderful!

If you can hear me, I wish to introduce myself.

My name is Zevran, which I first thought would be foolish to share, but upon reflection I have concluded that, should you have been sent to kill me, you likely already know that I am here.

I must ask... does this strange country possess anything approaching a tavern? I confess that I am very lost, and would feel much better if I was considering my fate with a glass of wine in hand.

I am not a man without talents, so if the wine comes with a price... well, let us negotiate, yes?

So about this fog...

[Hey guys, there's a redhead on your network looking magnificently scruffy. That is full Irish beard right there. Actually... that's way more than a week's growth for those of you that knew he was leaving. He's currently sprawled out on the stone floor of his cavern hideaway, holding his arm up so the video's looking down on him.]

I was hoping to make it back into town today but apparently Verdana had other ideas. [And there's a knowing smirk that comes with that because he at least has spent most of the last weeks (as far as he knows) talking to her.]

So, I don't know when I'm going to be able to get back but... [His free hand comes up to thread through his shaggy crimson curls.] Anyone out there good with a pair of scissors?

[Private to Lyall] )
