One Moon ℂ Video

[claimyourself]

[A hand fumbles in front of the camera, then pulls back to show a teenage girl who is looking very confused and a bit scared.]

Where am I? What's going on here?

[She looks around her, then back to the camera. Bringing it closer to her face to better examine it, she narrows her unique eyes, one green, one gold.]

Is this some kind of sick joke? Did you do this, mother?

[The last word is spit out harshly. This is so not a happy mother-daughter relationship.]

I don't know what your angle is this time, but I don't want to talk to you. Send me home right now!

Take a deep breath. S'all right. 'm pretty sure your mum couldn't do this. 'm Rose Tyler and you're in the City. Horrible name, yeah. Not much we can do 'bout that either.

Where you at? Can't tell from the video.

[She lets out a little laugh of disbelief.]

You don't know my mother.

[She pushes off the wall she's leaning against and steps out a few feet, then points the camera up at the impressive building.]

Outside the police station. I was thinking of getting some help, but it'd be tough to explain how I ended up here.

[iwasherefirst]

Not much they could do anyhow. Stay put, I'll come fetch you and we'll have a cuppa tea. I'll explain things to you if you like.

[She's definitely wary of this. Someone helping her out of the blue? It doesn't seem right.]

You want to help me? Just like that?

I was new here once too. I got lucky. Got friends here. Not everyone does. 'Sides 'm offerin' tea and information, not a place to live.

[eiremagic]

[She speaks in a very thick North Irish accent]

I doubt your ma had anything to do with this.

[claimyourself]

Why do you say that? She's done some pretty awful things.

[eiremagic]

Don't doubt that. But she wouldn't have done this.

[Skeptical Lena is skeptical.]

How do you know?

voice;

[hexuality]

Not exactly the best of friends with your mum, are you?

voice;

[claimyourself]

Less the best of friends; more like total enemies.

[And another person from the British Isles. Where is this city anyway?]

There's a lot of people on the other end of this line.

voice;

[hexuality]

There's a lot of people in this city.

I'm Ginny Weasley.

voice;

[claimyourself]

Yeah, it's bigger than any city I've ever been to, I think.

Lena Duchannes.

[errandry]

... yeah, that's not gonna work.

You land okay?

[claimyourself]

[The wind's been taken out of her sails already by someone else.]

So I'm learning.

I landed fine, though I don't really remember landing. I just sort of... was here.

[errandry]

That's kinda how it works. Most people get dumped into the fountain, though.

[claimyourself]

Wonder how I avoided that. It's a nice fountain, but I wouldn't want to just get dumped on it.

voice;

[aperfectthird]

It is some sort of sick joke, but I very much doubt your mother had much to do with it.

voice;

[claimyourself]

So I've been told. It has to do with these deities. Doesn't mean she's not capable of something like this, though. I'm sure once I get out of here she'll do something else to totally ruin my life.

voice;

[aperfectthird]

Your mother is capable of pulling you out of your home world and putting you somewhere else entirely?

She must be incredibly powerful.

voice;

[claimyourself]

[She hesitates, looking away for a moment. Eden already told her that people here are aware of magic, and that there are curses. This isn't like home, so does she have to hide what she is like she does there?]

She is, yeah.

[awkwards]

Unless your mother is like some fucked up deity, you're in some shitty place called the City.

[ oh, she forgot something important. ]

And it's a sick joke.

video;

[claimyourself]

She's not a deity, but she is pretty warped.

So I've been hearing.

video;

[awkwards]

This place is pretty warped, so I guess you'll fit right in. [ lol not really. alisha's life is kind of shitty like this place, but she hasn't found her niche at all. she does notice a lack of dripping on lena. ] Seems like this place likes you enough to not shove you in the fountain.

[claimyourself]

I'm not sure if I should take that as a good sign yet. I'm disliked enough by somebody to end up here in the first place.
