[ MINGLING POST: SEATTLE ]

SEATTLE


Your cell phone has a pre-recorded message, a voicemail that appears the moment you turn it on for the first time. The voice is a woman's, low and even.


---this is recording, isn't it? The red---oh!

Hello. I'm sure that you're...confused. Maybe you're even angry. Hell, I know that if I was in your shoes, I'd be. You've been roused from your sleep, roused from the dead, or pulled out of whatever epic world battle or adventure you were on. One man I talked to years back said that he'd been pulled in right in the middle of eating a bowl of cereal. Even now, Cheerios make him nervous.

Whatever you were doing was certainly more important to you than this. Understandably. I would be angry, and if you are? There are plenty of places to direct it. If you want to blame someone, blame the government and their puppets---but believe that there are people who care. My organization fights for the rights of all dimensional immigrants. We are on your side.

After years of knocking heads together and kicking down doors up on the hill, we've secured money, housing, and networking for all dimensional immigrants. You're welcome. If you want to help your fellow displaced man, we are always taking volunteers.

My name is Annie Prendergast. Welcome to the Emerald City. The coffee's great.


Remember, housing post is here and supplemental information on your new city is here.

OOC PLOTTING POST:


Welcome to Seattle! You've been given your things---a cell phone, a change of clothes, a credit card with four hundred dollars on it, welcome pamphlets, directions to Belltown. This is an OOC post for you to gather CR with the other new Washingtonians. The is a PERMANENT post, so check back frequently to see who is new in town.

Heya! How're you acclimating?

There are a lot of museums in Seattle. Also a couple of universities! It'd be endless fun to watch him try to convince the faculty that no, no he really is that Indiana Jones, and if they know enough to ask then don't they already know his credentials?

Regarding the Willows: between Wonder Woman and John Constantine, there's quite a lot of interesting cultural crud lying around! Diana keeps a stack of library books on history and myths and crud (mostly Ancient Greek, but also whatever else she's interested in that week) next to the sofa, and John adds even weirder and more esoteric stuff to it about metaphysics and the occult and more myth and history (his histories are mostly more current to the last two centuries, and feature a fair amount of Nazis and superheroes).

Not to mention the occasional mystical oddity that turns up in his room or, y'know, wherever he left it. He's not usually the magic wand/mystic knife type, but now and again you just need a carved skull for something.

Oh! Also, Indy's a detail-oriented type of guy, so sooner or later he'll probably notice the delicate and discreetly placed glyphs scratched (and in some cases drawn in Sharpie; like I said, modern guy) around doors and windows. They're for warding out nosy demons and ghosts and stuff. Some of the symbols are probably what Indy'd consider "real," and some look like total BS.

Oh, and I almost forgot. Amara is from some whacky Marvel-continuity ancient Roman colony that survived undiscovered up into the modern age, lying off the coast of Brazil. So, uh. There's that?

o.o;; Thanks... I guess I got plenty to work with....

Just... how to go about it all will be the key.

n.n; As for getting acclimated... I'm starting small...
a friend said I could back date tags so that once I'm up for it... yeah. I can make things happen.
