[Neil is standing near the fountain, watching the insanity of the crowded City unfold.]

So wait... what the hell is going on today?

...No one ever tells me anything.

[ooc: OPEN ACTION, DOUBLES WILL BE WELCOMED, SPOILERS FROM BEYOND MID-BOOK 4 (where this guy's from) ARE ALSO COOL TODAY. BASICALLY EVERYTHING IS OKAY. I'M EXCITED. =D
also: I will be trolling under my personal account, jeilovesyou. As myself. So... that's who that is. If you wondered. Hah.
also also: I KNOW I HAVE A MILLION AND ONE TAGS TO DO, I promise I'll get to it after I have my tea.
AAAAAAAAND ACTION!]

Maybe it's not important. Why don't you tell me everything?

[illgrowoutofit.livejournal.com]

Uh... tell you... what, exactly?

[h0ttiefromhell.livejournal.com]

Let's start with you telling me what'll it take to get a ice blended coffee and a few hours of your time.

This is the day your best mates get to visit you.

Or your worst.

Whichever.

[illgrowoutofit.livejournal.com]

What? Like, from back home?

[signatures]

That's right. Only on occasion, though - sometimes no one comes that you know at all.

[Video, a bit dark. The girl is wearing sunglasses and looks 16 at most. When she speaks, she has a Northern English accent.]

Well, it's simple, isn't it? Something dreadfully magical is occurring.

[illgrowoutofit.livejournal.com]

Magical how?

[truculentsoul.livejournal.com]

[Pout. And then affected mysteriousness.] Oh, well, I imagine things such as that mightn't be so obvious to one who is not as attuned to mystic energies as I am.

[4llth3just1c3.livejournal.com]

It is a curse! Duh!

[illgrowoutofit.livejournal.com]

A there-are-a-million-people-everywhere curse?

Video; And just because I want to fuck with him...

[legislacerates.livejournal.com]

I do not think there is much to tell.

[She grins, shark-like and playful.]

You have a very... Decadent smell about you!

[illgrowoutofit.livejournal.com]

Cool, thanks.

Wait, what?!

[ilesbiansyou.livejournal.com]

We're supposed to tell you things? When did that happen?

[illgrowoutofit.livejournal.com]

[He's going to completely ignore that question due to shock.]

...Dude! It's you! You're here!

[howbig-canitbe.livejournal.com]

Well it ain't hell. Outside of that, was hopin' someone could tell me.

[illgrowoutofit.livejournal.com]

[Oh, wow. Give Neil a moment of stunned silence to... take that in.]

Uh... yeah. It's sure... not that.

Uh. Hi?

Woo, comment 100!

[bakurakrazie.livejournal.com]

We're a curse!

101 DALMATIONS-- oops I mean comments

[illgrowoutofit.livejournal.com]

...Oh. Guess that makes sense?

[Video]

[its-much-better.livejournal.com]

A girl pops up on the screen, smiling. When she speaks, it is in a rather thick Eastern European accent.

iuhsfakljd OH MY GODS. BEST EVER.

[illgrowoutofit.livejournal.com]

[Neil quirks an eyebrow.]

Uh... what?

[stilluphere.livejournal.com]

[Oh hey there! A slightly lanky Irishman in a robe and funny mask is sidling up next to you.]

I know what you're saying there. I always feel entirely out of the loop.

[illgrowoutofit.livejournal.com]

[Okay, well, this is kind of weird. But Neil's used to weird by now, and he's willing to overlook it, because hey, someone showing empathy for him!]

Really? Y' do?

[prettydamngay.livejournal.com]

<sub>[Okay, this is getting weird now. First Stephen Stills and now...this guy. The one that looked kinda like Scott...Young Neil! Or was it just Neil now? Wallace didn't know, or particularly care, but it was nice to see another familiar face, he admitted.]

Hey, kid, no one tells me anything either, but here I am and here you are.</sub>

[illgrowoutofit.livejournal.com]

[Neil is momentarily disoriented-- he totally knows this guy, but it's been a while so it takes him a moment to remember how. Riiiiiight, this is Scott's-- the one who's-- right. Okay.]

Uh... really? Yeah, I guess. Here... we are.

[Neil clears his throat and runs a hand through his hair awkwardly.]
