- a camera? That wasn't there before!

[The lower half of someone's face filters into focus, right up against the lens. Hope you don't mind an extreme close-up of someone's chin, because that's what you're getting while Jane tries to sort this out.]

Roxy, are you even listening to me?

[Meanwhile, this other person's squealing up a storm in the background.] Janeeeeeeey! Can you fucking believe this shit? It's, like, one second, I'm scramming from the scene -- ravenous creeps all over the damn place, Jane, you wouldn't even believe -- and now!

[There's a pause.] Heh... I hope you're not mad at me still! It's not like I meant to fall on you.

[And then another excited squeal.] Janeyyyy! Come here, ya damn tightass. [Roxy suddenly pulls the other girl in for yet another forceful hug, just before noticing the object in her hands.] What the fuck are you doing with that shit, eh? Didn't I tell you to toss it?

I'm trying to figure out when- [She lets out a little yelp and drops the Tiaratop. It clatters down to the dirt, still recording the girls' feet.] -when it got a camera feature! Something's really fishy about this.

[A pause as Jane leans down to pick up the device. She looks right into the camera.]

Wait, is this thing recording?

I told you not to trust the Batterwitch's shit, Jane. When are you ever gonna learn?

[That last question catches her attention, though.] Oh, really? [She shoves her face right against Jane's cheek to fit into the camera's view.

And now she's making kissy faces at the camera and winking suggestively. Yep.]

((OOC: Jane and Roxy! Apologies for the bright colors ;_;))

[Oh hey, it's Dirk again.

Only he's aged by about 15 years. And his hat is ON HIS HEAD LIKE A NORMAL PERSON.]

This isn't Chatroulette, ladies. Move right along.

[mustaches]

[Jane doesn't look down at the projection yet, now that she's getting used to this.]

We know, we're just trying to get ourselves sorted-

[Her eyes finally land on the screen, and her jaw drops just a little. Maybe more than just a little.]

[bestie]

[OOH LA LA. What is this?! Have a melodramatic gasp from this teenager.]

Dirk?

[But wait. That makes NO SENSE.]

[plushrumpus]

Sorry, wrong guy.

[mustaches]

[She feels a little embarrassed, but keeps giving him side-glances.]

Sorry, sir. Our friend has the same glasses. [And face, and hair, and expression...]

[bestie]

[Roxy thinks you're full of shit, my friend.]

Fuck that shit. Dirk has the same everything you do! You're, like, the grown-up version.

And I'm totally not complaining about that... [Cheesy wink goes here :|]

[plushrumpus]

Yeah, I know. Ran into the little bastard not too long ago. Some real Twilight Zone shit going on up in here.

[Excuse him while he squints long and hard at Roxy. Not that... one can tell by looking at him.]

Your last name Lalonde by any chance, blondie?

[bestie]

[Roxy turns to look at Jane for a bit before turning back to Bro.]

Why? Is there a me your age that you know?

[A very quick pause.] And is she totally smokin'?

[plushrumpus]

[MOTHER OF GOD.]

[plushrumpus]

[Yep. That's Rose's mom as a teenager, all right.]

Yeah, I think she qualifies as a MILF.

[bestie]

[Congrats, Bro. You have just made Roxy's day.

The tipsy shriek that follows promptly after is super ear-piercing.]

Fuck. YES.

You hear that, Janey? I'm gonna be hot shit when I grow up. [The smirk on this one's face could kill, Jesus Christ.]

[mustaches]

[Jane is just witnessing all of this with a look of faint concern. She addresses Bro:]

What are you talking about? How is that even possible?

[plushrumpus]

Hell if I know. Alternate universe shenanigans, probably.

[That's pretty much all he has to say on the matter. Instead, he takes a moment to scrutinize Jane, and while he can't pin down her identity, he's got a pretty good idea.]

Lemme guess, you're part of the Egbert-Harley-English family.

[bestie]

Shit, are you saying this is, like, some crazy alternate universe version of America's swanky hat?

[And now her eyes are widening a bit at this question, even though it isn't directed towards her.] Whoa.

[Because it's not like she even knows those other two names, but English? HELLO? What does this mean...]

[mustaches]

No, I'm not any of those things! My last name's Crocker.

[But her eyes widen a little at "English". This is getting kind of freaky for her.]

[plushrumpus]

Doesn't seem like that matters, in this case.

[Bro crosses his arms, pausing briefly in thought. It's a slow process, but the pieces are coming together here.]

As far as this place goes, yeah, it's kind of like Bizarro Canada, and we're all here because there's some interdimensional kidnapping shenanigans going on thanks to a giant plot device in the middle of the city.

LMFAO @ that icon

[bestie]

[Roxy narrows her eyes at Bro's casual response, but chooses not to say anything at the moment.]

...I think I need a drink.

[mustaches]

[Jane's eyebrows go straight up at Bro's comment.]

Interdimensional?

[plushrumpus]

So goes the story.

[Shrug.]

Believe it if you want.
