Video

[rianofski]

[When the video turns on, it shows the inside of Andrew's apartment. Except when it swings around to show the face of whoever's recording the video, it's very much not the face people might be expecting. No, if this is Andrew, this is a very young and very confused Andrew, and he's staring into the screen like he's never seen this place before in his life -- which he hasn't, at least, not that he remembers.]

Where is this place?

[This wasn't where he'd fallen asleep last night, he remembers that much. In fact, it's actually slightly nicer than the last place he'd been, but it's still not right.]

I am not...

[A long sigh as he tries to conjure up the words he's looking for, and then a disgruntled expression as he switches to Russian.]

Does anyone here speak Russian?

[[OOC: Andrew has been de-aged to nineteen for this event and has no City memories, and thus, replies will come from buildtheimpossible . He'd also be much obliged if someone who spoke Russian wanted to talk to him.]]

[unwheeled]

That may not be the case, actually. Again, all of my information is secondhand so I can't confirm anything for you without a doubt unfortunately.

[buildtheimpossible]

Do you mean to imply that we're in some kind of place where time doesn't pass elsewhere?

[unwheeled]

That is exactly what I mean to imply; unfortunately I am no more able to tell you how as I am able to tell you why those in charge of naming this place have so little imagination.

[buildtheimpossible]

Fascinating. What's your name?

[unwheeled]

Charles. And yours?

If you don't mind my asking.

[buildtheimpossible]

Andrei.

[He's hasty to correct himself.]

Andrew.

[unwheeled]

It's nice to meet you, Andrew.

[Though Charles definitely wants to know the full story behind the reasons why Andrew isn't Andrei, he isn't going to be so gauche as to ask over the phone.]

[buildtheimpossible]

And you. I appreciate the information you've provided me.

[unwheeled]

Of course; I thrive on being helpful. Do let me know if there's anything else I can do.

[buildtheimpossible]

I will.

[And that's no lie -- he's completely baffled by this place.]
