[Oh. Her. Gosh.

Ohhergosh. Ingrid can put two and two together. And she was always an avid reader...]

Fr- [No. No, wait. If this is the real Frodo, and she has been assured such a thing is possible, then saying his name without having been introduced would probably freak him out. Ah.... what to do?]

Hello.

[Frodo might hear a small *smack* as she facepalms rather violently.]

[harthad]

[ Saying Frodo's name at this point would surely freak him the hell out, right now. That voice is... a softer greeting. Not so heavy, not so troubling, in its simplicity. He isn't unappreciative of it. ]

... Good afternoon?

[intangible_girl]

Ah- [Quick! Think of something clever to say!] Good afternoon.

[No no no no! What is that line? About a morning to be good on? Argh, she can't remember. That's all you're getting for now, Frodo.]

[harthad]

Are there a number of you here? What are you?

[intangible_girl]

I'm [It's okay to admit this much, right?] I'm a human. There's a lot of us here, as well as some of other species. I don't- [Think there are any other hobbits around.] think I've met very many since I've been here, though.

[harthad]

Humans? Are you of G--

... I already forget, this is not my home at all. Far from it. Nevermind it. Who are you?

[intangible_girl]

I'm Ingrid. [And she's a little calmer now.] It's not my home either. Where are you from? [It seems like a polite thing to ask, under the circumstances.]

[harthad]

I... I am Shirefolk. [ He is trying to gauge what is safe to admit to these people. ]

[intangible_girl]

I'm from Earth. Um... Connecticut.

[harthad]

Co...necticut? I have never heard of such a land nor town. Though, I suppose that is to be expected, at this point.

[intangible_girl]

I haven't met anyone from my world yet either. Though they say it happens sometimes. I'm kind of hoping someone I know shows up here, if only for company.

[harthad]

I can understand. With the right company, you can face many a challenge.

[intangible_girl]

[You certainly can, Mr. Baggins.

She didn't say that out loud, did she? No? Good.]

Do you need any assistance, sir? [From the sounds of it, you're already getting a lot of offers for help, but it seems like you were pulled out of your world at a bad time. She offers mostly for politeness' sake, though she will try to help if help is requested.]

[harthad]

No, I'll be fine in getting there, and there aren't injuries, after all.

[intangible_girl]

I'm glad to hear it. [Maybe you're from a more pleasant time than she thought.] Perhaps we'll meet in person sometime, then.

[harthad]

Yes, perhaps we will.
