[When the video first clicks on, all that's visible is Will's face and the top of his shoulders. The feed shifts slightly, and from the angle it's being held at, it would be reasonable to assume he's led down, and even more reasonable -- from the slight squint and the admittedly somewhat dirty red bricks visible in one corner of the screen -- to think that he's outside and on a wall. After a moment, he appears satisfied that the device is, in fact, turned on, and places it somewhat clumsily behind his head, slightly further along the wall.]

I assume if this were normal, it would have been mentioned somewhere in between the rampaging wooden animals and the impromptu, temporary marriages ― perhaps just after cats, but before the clones. I shan't complain, though I feel as if I ought to be speaking of― [he pauses for a moment, waving a hand vaguely and briefly adopting something approaching a passable West Country accent] ―thic faraway lands, visited only by a daring, and arguably foolish, few on gurt maggoty ships.

[He sits up suddenly, and turns round to study his device; he looks cheerful, albeit slightly grubby and fairly nonplussed by the situation as a whole, although it soon fades into poorly concealed irritation.]

Perhaps Bristol's only up the road, or Teignmouth to the west and Torquay just below that. I suppose we shan't ever know; in a few hours more, we'll be somewhere and somewhen else entirely, taking part in a wholly ridiculous scavenger hunt. Why would it be as simple as playing along in what amounts to a bastardised children's game?

action.

[ There's a lass in hot pink thights, a short kirt, a pirate coat and hat. With bright red hair and an excited gleam in her eyes. She might look familiar. She might also be sitting down right next to you just now. ]

What's with the grumpy face?

[His attention briefly shifts to her tights, and he raises his eyebrows at her before pointedly ignoring the question.]

It's a very attractive face; there's nothing with it.

[waitedforyears.livejournal.com]

Grumpy is hardly attractive. [ She teases. Your face is very pretty even when you're grumpy. ]

[He leans forward as if studying her.] Then you must be in need of glasses. No-one else has ever claimed otherwise.

I can see perfectly well.

I'm waiting for the catch in this whole 'game' to reveal itself.

[bitesvampires.livejournal.com]

I shouldn't imagine it'd be until the end.

[sempreadagio.livejournal.com]

I wonder when the end is then. We all might want to stay indoors at the end.

[bitesvampires.livejournal.com]

That sounds awfully dull.

[sempreadagio.livejournal.com]

Dull is better than being eaten or stomped on or worse.

[whattingawhat.livejournal.com]

I guess I sort of forgot to mention that sometimes the City turns into some place and some when else completely.

Sorry.

[bitesvampires.livejournal.com]

I suppose I can find it in myself to forgive you.

[whattingawhat.livejournal.com]

Oh good. I like the forgiveness train.

[bitesvampires.livejournal.com]

As long as it's not expected to stop at too many stations.

[whattingawhat.livejournal.com]

It's sort of got an unplanned itinerary.

I think I preferred the zombies. There's something wholly satisfying about knocking them off.

[bitesvampires.livejournal.com]

They did seem to amount to little more than slow moving targets.

Less of a chance of damaging some cursed mundie though.

[bitesvampires.livejournal.com]

[His lips quirk at that. 'Mundie'. OH, YOU FUTURE PEOPLE AND YOUR SILLY TERMINOLOGY.]

Not that there seemed to be many around, comparatively speaking.

Yet it would be unfortunate to have to deal with the supposed law enforcement in this place. I'm just really not in the mood to get in trouble for killing things. Not when it makes me feel better.

[Moody Jace is moody. Something about getting confronted by an angel does that to him apparently.]

[7thborn.livejournal.com]

They're all about games here, I told you that.

[Someone sounds just as irritated.]

voice;

[bitesvampires.livejournal.com]

Yes, and I suppose you're going to tell me I should have listened better, aren't you?

voice; OMG BTW I HAD MELON SODA AHHH

[7thborn.livejournal.com]

You wouldn't listen if I said so.

[And she doesn't really care. But there's a pause, and she adds with a slightly more curious note despite herself,]

That was West Country you just did.

voice; ISN'T IT AMAZING I'm so jealous ;;

[bitesvampires.livejournal.com]

[His manner is offhand, almost dismissive.] You're right, I wouldn't.

[A beat.] Yes. The West Country did have a number of ports, after all.

voice; it was so green and magical

[7thborn.livejournal.com]

[There's a sort of derisive snort from her end.]

Feeling's mutual, mate.

[Hmm.]

You've been, then?
