Video

[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 [personal profile] buildtheimpossible . He'd also be much obliged if someone who spoke Russian wanted to talk to him.]]

My only concern is finding out who is responsible.

Nonetheless, I think it's more relevant than worrying about what I'm missing.

Then I wish you the best of luck. In the meantime, may I ask your name?

Andrew Ryan.

[It's pretty obvious from the hesitant way he says it that, if it is his name, it hasn't been for long.]

I was in England before I found myself here. My family is Ukrainian.

[Except, you know, his grandfather was sent to Siberia, but that's not the sort of thing he's eager to share.]
buildtheimpossible: (If you only knew)

Re: audio;

[personal profile] buildtheimpossible 2013-01-27 05:03 am (UTC)(link)
I see. I've only been to England briefly.

My father sent me here to study. I don't think you're missing much, personally.

I'm sure it's better than my hometown.
buildtheimpossible: (Then what would you do)

Re: audio;

[personal profile] buildtheimpossible 2013-01-27 05:33 am (UTC)(link)
A little village near Minsk. I sincerely doubt you've ever heard of it.

[And that's probably a good thing. He hated it there.]

Perhaps I'd have liked it better if I'd wanted to come.

I take it that means someone forced you to?

It's a long story.

[He'd rather not share the details.]
buildtheimpossible: (That you don't want to see)

Re: audio;

[personal profile] buildtheimpossible 2013-01-27 06:13 am (UTC)(link)
Interesting stories almost always are.

[He's curious, but not likely to pry. Not yet, at least.]

If I manage to take care of my business, maybe I'll make the time to tell it.

Re: audio;

[personal profile] buildtheimpossible 2013-01-27 06:23 am (UTC)(link)
Does your business involve starting trouble?

[He's not necessarily judging you for that.]

I'd like to make it known to whoever's responsible for my being here that I don't much appreciate it.

[So, yes.]
buildtheimpossible: (That I've caused)

Re: audio;

[personal profile] buildtheimpossible 2013-01-27 06:27 am (UTC)(link)
I'd advise against it.
buildtheimpossible: (Terrible things)

Re: audio;

[personal profile] buildtheimpossible 2013-01-27 10:20 pm (UTC)(link)
Because there's every possibility that our time here won't be permanent.

I don't see how that makes this better.
