Chamber 01 ( ) Video

[A loud CRACK opens the feed as the communicator falls to the floor. For a moment, it lies there, recording the underside of a bridge, before there's a pair of noises, vnkoonsh vkshhh--for half an instant, an orange hole opens above the feed, showing through a different angle on the scene, before the recorder begins falling.

The feed tumbles as the device freefalls through a set of glowing holes, one after the other: first thrumming past a line of blue, then orange, then again, falling faster and faster until it's all a blurred tunnel of color. The noise of passing through becomes an oscillating hum, nearing terminal velocity, before another vnkmmp cuts through the drone, and the fall suddenly drastically turns sideways, rocketing through the air until it hits a wall with yet another CRACK.

After a pause, there's the faint sound of footsteps, another warped hiss of bent physics, and gravity reverses under the communicator, falling up through the portal to be caught by the woman standing on the other end. A studying look is cast over the device, eyebrows knit stern together to check for damage. The woman is covered in cuts and bruises, some old and some definitely not, with a worrying bit of dried blood matting her dark hair in a few places. Looks like she's checking to make sure this thing can hold up to her levels of wear and tear.

It only takes a moment for her to recognize that the recording's gone off, and a flash of hesitation passes over her face, before she casts a challenging look at the communicator, eyebrow arched. So she's got an audience--it's no surprise. She can only hope they're enjoying the show.]

[Luna, meanwhile, has been watching since the beginning. By now, she's leaning forward with obvious interest, cupping her communicator in the curve of her wing rather than holding it with her magic. She only speaks once she sees the woman's realized the device is on.]

That was most interesting. Was it magic?

Ah. I might have known. Humans do seem much more inclined towards technology.

Forgive my curiosity - I am Princess Luna, of Equestria. And I can assure thee that thou art not hallucinating my presence. [Yeah she gets that a lot.] My dear sister and two of our citizens are also trapped in this place, quite as real as I.

Hey, are you okay over there? You look kind of beat up.

[Lea really wants to know what was up with the communicator, but he's more worried that the lady might need some help.]

[She shrugs, the motion jarring the communicator a little; it becomes engulfed in a faint blue glow instead as she folds her wings back at her sides.]

'Tis quite unlike any dream in my experience. As Princess of the Night, guarding my ponies' dreams is an old duty, one which I hath held for many centuries. But of course, I suppose it may also be something quite new - I had never encountered Dream Eaters ere waking here, for example.
eternalfrolicbond: (let me explain)

[personal profile] eternalfrolicbond 2013-05-18 11:23 pm (UTC)(link)
I'm Lea. If you need help, I can come over and give you a hand.

[He wasn't totally sure where she was, but he was sure he could find her.]
onehandsomeslickninja: (by my blade)

[personal profile] onehandsomeslickninja 2013-05-18 11:38 pm (UTC)(link)
Where's whoever did that to you, and how much help do you want making them pay?

[This casual question is punctuated by the hiss of metal as he draws his swords.]
onehandsomeslickninja: (a little uncertain)

[personal profile] onehandsomeslickninja 2013-05-18 11:49 pm (UTC)(link)
...you fell here, instead of waking up?

...I didn't even get a chance to use the 'falling from heaven' line and already it's spoiled...
raisethemoon: ([I promise you])

I help my subjects fight their nightmares, essentially, but never hath pony nightmares been personified such as they are here. Hast thou seen a Nightmare yet? They are hostile, but not terribly dangerous...hold a moment.

[She turns to glance towards the window, her ears pricked, then stands and moves offscreen. There's a clatter and screech, and a second later she returns holding a thrashing Nightmare Pricklemane in her magic.]

Like this. Spirits are lighter-colored, and will aid thee in battle.

[After the abuse of the communicator, the first things Sora takes note of is that this woman's hurt. Sora doesn't like seeing people hurt, even strangers.]

Hey are you okay?
raisethemoon: ([but tread the water])

[personal profile] raisethemoon 2013-05-19 06:59 am (UTC)(link)
[Luna arches an eyebrow at that, but...well, of course she wasn't going to simply let it go. The thing was trying to get into her home anyway, it's something of a problem in this district. Her magic gives a quick squeeze and the Nightmare vanishes, a few coins, treats, and dream pieces bouncing to the ground.]

Nightmare hunting is also a good source of revenue, although I would not advise attempting to eat the food they give forth. Ursa, take heed! [She picks up one that looks rather like an ice cream cone and tosses it past the camera.]

The potions offered by the Moogles, on the other hoof, are meant for healing injuries and are quite safe. [SHE SEES THAT BLOOD THERE. There's been an alarming number of bleeding humans within the past few nights.]

I just got here myself, but I still think that's a bit weird. "Falling asleep" jokes aside.

...You okay, by the way?

[Namine blinks in surprise at the opening of the transmission, then her eyes widen in surprise and concern.]

Ummm...The Potion is supposed to help if you're hurt.
raisethemoon: ([to darken])

[personal profile] raisethemoon 2013-05-19 09:00 pm (UTC)(link)
[Excellent. It's nice not to have to bother someone to take care of themselves.]

In addition, I believe the operators of the Tea Shop hath a habit of giving free food to newcomers. [Or, at least, Pinkie Pie hangs around there a lot. It's the same thing really.]

[personal profile] dork_of_keys 2013-05-19 09:49 pm (UTC)(link)
[Well, most of the people present are the type to be concerned when someone shows up hurt.]

If you're sure...

[Closer inspection, at least as much as viewing over the communicator allows, makes it more apparent that the wounds don't seem to be serious. That some are fresher than others is a concern, but it doesn't look like she wants to talk about it. Perhaps another time...]

Anyway, I'm Sora. If you need anything, everyone here is usually pretty helpful even if some of them are kind of surly.

[There's an indignant squeak off screen. Apparently Bruce is assuming that Sora's including him in the surly bunch.]
