First Over || accidental video

[fiveagainstradley]

[ The video feed opens on a small, wet cardboard box and a handful of thoroughly soaked and utterly useless matches. From the quality of the audio, it's evident the recording is accidental. ]

Where am I? This isn't Ashbury. And-- Oh, great, how am I meant to call Luke now? Wait, what's this? Some sort of portable?

[ A hand comes into view as it picks up the device, revealing a sandy-blond boy in his late teens. His hair and clothes are a few decades out of date, and he seems confused enough by what he's holding to suggest he's not from around here. ]

Oh, it's a camera. Sort of? Where's the film go? [ In trying to figure out where to put the nonexistent film, David accidentally ends the feed. ]

[David. It takes Luke a bit after the feed happens to notice, he's not on his device every waking moment, but once he does, he does a quick look over the network, checking, is there a curse? A curse that makes people hallucinate, or something like that? Nobody's announcing anything?

Free to go.

He's a bit of a usual habit of casually ambling over to David but this is important, because this is the longest he's gone without seeing him since he met him ever.

So he runs, instead, shouting to catch his attention as he runs over to the fountain.]

David!

[He barely slows down when he reaches him, scooping him into a sort of bear hug.]

We're in a magical city, and time works differently, so I've been here for months and I missed you.

[justamessenger]

Oh my goodness. You must be David.

[Are the matches and calling "Luke" connected? If so, that indicates a particular Luke, particularly adding in the 70s gear and the accent.]

The wet greeting is a City favorite. Are you okay?

If anyone offers you a tour of the underground? Just say no. Stranger danger.
