[ The device turns on to a man looking just a hint disheveled, but overall he looks very mild and gathered. He's taken his time to calm down by now, after all. ]

Ah, hey, so I read the... [ He lifts the pamphlet and waves it a little, though not at all dismissively. ] ... this little brochure. Very helpful, actually, so thanks to whoever wrote it. And yeah, you guessed it, I'm new.

[ It might be a little difficult to tell whether or not he's being honest in his appreciation, but this time he really is. ]

So. Parallel universes, who would've thought. Guess stranger things could've happened. [ Except not really. But it's nice to think that. ] I won't bore any of you with questions, I got the gist of it by now.

But I'd like to know if there are any experts out there, if I can pick your brain. Not just on alternate realities, but space and time traveling, wormholes, portals, pocket universes - which is what I'm assuming this all is.

[ He sets the brochure aside and rubs a hand briefly down his face. ]

Because here's the thing - how does a place like this even happen? This is tiny, unbelievably so. Even if opening a wormhole that can actually travel across different dimensions without any visible devices or power source, how can it happen with several? Because for not just one or two universes, but dozens or hundreds of them to be converging here, and from fluctuating times and points within them, this place should be... I don't know, torn into pieces, disintegrating entirely. No laws of physics can explain this, and just - you know what, just spare me the speech on how physics don't work the same way here.

[ He's trying to keep it simple for the common listener, but just in case he didn't succeed, he adds as a final thought. ] This place is impossible.

[ Not that he won't try to make some sense of it, and for now at least seeing if he can find someone who'll help him with that seems like the best option. That, and finding a quiet corner where he can stay. ]

Thanks for listening. And for answering, if you do. [ He hesitates for a moment before he finally decides to add. ] Name's Bruce Banner, by the way.

[ Not that he has a lot of hope that he'll find someone here he knows, but... well, yesterday he'd have said something like this would be hilariously impossible. So who's to say. ]

You know it?

[ She gives him a skeptical and evaluating look. ]

Are you from Arda?

[ She doesn't think so, but perhaps he was from some distant future or something of the sort. People could be from different points in time after all. ]
itisourfight: (surely not?)

How do you know that?

[ An answer that should tell him clearly enough that he guessed it right. ]

You were.

[ She almost looks as if she wants to smile at him, but there is a wary hesitation in her features that overshadows the slight softening around the corners of her lips.

His guessing is impressive, but it also makes her suspicious.

[ That does make her features soften further, it isn't as hard to get through her tough act as she tries to make it seem. ]

Tauriel. And yours?

Bruce. Where are you from?

[ If his world has legends of Arda, she wonders if its name will sound in any way familiar to her. ]

I am not familiar with the place, and yet there are stories of Arda there?

[ It seems so strange. Then again should she not have gotten used to strangeness from Wonderland? ]

I would be telling a lie if I said I fully understand what you mean, but I think I follow you enough at least.

[ Wonderland seems to be able to bring people together in all sorts of strange ways after all. ]
