[ When the device turns on, it sounds like Alisha is fiddling with it, trying to turn it on. It takes her a few extra moments to realise that she has, indeed, found success. A deep inhale—one of exhaustion and annoyance—can be heard before she speaks ] What the fuck is going on? If we've somehow pissed off another goddamn freak I'm going to kill you, Curtis. Who the fuck goes after some weirdo who [ air quotes ] "apparently" [ end air quotes ] controls dairy or whatever the fuck and - [ Alisha inhales, suddenly realising that she's talking at a strange device she's never seen before. It's not Simon's phone, or Nathan's, Curtis' or Kelly's. ] Hello? Where the fuck are you? Curtis? Simon? Kelly? [ A long pause ] Nathan? [ Alisha goes for her phone, trying to turn it on. She frowns ] Why won't my phone work?

[ A pause, and this time Alisha's voice is angrier ] What the hell did you do to my phone, Nathan? [ She glares. As if that will give her an answer from the twat. ]

Fucking answer me, you twat!

[ A longer pause as she waits for an answer that doesn't come. Alisha starts to look anxious. ] Look, if this is about the boy in the locker - or the probation worker - we didn't do anything, alright? I don't know shit. Whoever the fuck is doing this, please stop. Whatever the fuck you want, take it, alright? Just tell me where my friends are.

I don't think it's your phone anymore, per say.

Though it is yours.

[awkwards]

Is that a fancy way of saying it's not gonna work here?

v i d e o ][ sorry about the delete

[awkwards]

Yeah? What will then?

[awkwards]

No. We're not friends. [ NEVER. ] I just unfortunately know him.

[awkwards]

[ Poor you, Buffy ;; No one should have to endure that pain ]

I feel sorry for this bloody city. You know Nathan? Twat, tall, curly hair, Irish, total pervert?

[awkwards]

He's Irish and a pervert. Nathan Young.

[ ;; So much reading. ] Thanks. [ Side-eye, Mr Attitude. ]

Seriously? Curses? You've got to be kidding me.

[awkwards]

Then what's it about? 'Cause that's the only reason I'd think anyone would want me in some remote strange place.

[ Hawt. ]

I don't even fucking know. [ Seriously ] Apparently he just controls dairy. Your milk is under his control. [ Total shrug ] Lame power, don't you think?

[ video ]

[awkwards]

Think it'll send me home?

[awkwards]

[ Deadpan ]I wonder what gave him that impression.

I - you mean you're alone? Shit, Nathan. [ She may actually sound like she is concerned for you. ... And then that is over. ] Visitor's day? Why don't I remember that?

[Video]

[awkwards]

He doesn't? Seriously? [ SHOCKING. ]

Uh, yeah. This long ass thing that only raises more questions than answers. Apparently none of them have an exit sign.

But thanks. Is there anything those things don't cover that I should know?

If you got the Guide, then it should do the trick. Just have fun while you're here. It's a pretty cool place when you're not being cursed into a cat or something.

Weeell...cooler than NO power, but...as far as powers go, that one's rubbish. Suppose he could end up wi' an army a' pregnant animals, unless it's only cows. Either way, it's more hilarious than impressive.

[eiremagic]

I'm Eden. I'm his flatmate. Don' start to ask why.

[ v i d e o ]

[pyromatique.livejournal.com]

Yup. It's all kinds of fucked up here. Welcome to special hell.

[designedtoparty]

Fuck knows. They don't even start to get tits until they hit puberty.

[He seems oblivious to her fleeting concern. Dismissive, even.] I don't know. Probably some weird time shit. You'll make friends, anyway. I'm sure there's someone creepy enough to make up for not having Barry around somewhere.

Not the way it's supposed to, anyway. But that's what the device is for.

[whattingawhat.livejournal.com]

[She agrees]

That would be him.

I'm Buffy. Welcome to the City?

[dude-imbatman.livejournal.com]

Whaddya know, I'm pretty sure I know just the guy you're talking about. He's not that bad.

[iam-thebadwolf.livejournal.com]

Not sure anyone really knows what it's about. People just get pulled here for no real reason we can figger.

Does sorta pull extraordinary people though.

I'm Rose Tyler and I think the whole place is brilliant. [This is so going to bite her in the ass one day]

Hafta do more than scare the babes to work that bit of magic. And I don't think they let out early on good behaviour either.

[awkwards]

Any way I can speak to the people in charge using this device?

[awkwards]

Ask why you're living with him? 'Cause, yeah, I was gonna ask.

Are you mates with him?

[awkwards]

I'm Alisha. And I swear we're all not that bad. Nathan's got something wrong with him.

Does this place get any fucking weirder?
