[ So, standing near some of the outdoor baths, up against one of the paper-thin dividing walls, is a very, very confused teenager. He seems to be in something of quiet shock while taking in the drastically different surroundings than where he was only twenty minutes ago. On his hand is a ring, but he doesn't seem to have noticed it yet. ]

Hello...? Is anyone around? Where am I?

(ooc: Please be aware that touching him in anything much more than a tap will trigger his power to attract, and your character will like him more than the usual newbies/strangers. If that's okay with you, go ahead and do whatever.)

Don't know yet. But it looks like almost everyone who went to the Plane before's been brought here.

Almost everyone.

[tight smile] I'm Martha, by the way. Martha Jones.

[ He looks over once again, nodding a bit at her name, but seems to focus on the more important matter. ] The Plane?

[imnot-hisgirl.livejournal.com]

[concern] You've never been to the Plane before?

[polarization]

Don't think so.

[imnot-hisgirl.livejournal.com]

Are you sure? It's not like this place. It's a vast void, like a night full of stars.

[polarization]

[ ... what ]

Definitely not, then.

[imnot-hisgirl.livejournal.com]

Maybe that means you're different than us, the ones who were here before.

Can you leave? Try thinking about your home, like you want to go back.

[ He gives her an odd look, but figures he might as well. Tilting his head back and closing his eyes, he thinks about the street he had been walking around before appearing here.

... after a moment, he shakes his head and opens his eyes while making a small noise of dissatisfaction. ]

Yeah, I can't go back, either. That's how it usually is. You're on the Plane, that big void place, then you close your eyes and zap, you're back home.

But since we were brought here...it's not like that.

[polarization]

So I'm stuck here?
