[The communicator turns on with a click, revealing an image of a young man with long hair that’s falling into his eyes, staring around him with a confused expression on his face.

He’s surrounded by tall hedges, and he’s looking around him curiously.]All right, so I haven’t the foggiest idea where I’ve turned up, but I’m pretty sure James is behind ( Read more... )

[James is very much not surrounded by tall hedges, being indoors and all. He stares at the screen for a second, before poking it a bit. Because that will totally work, right?]

Sirius? Is that you?

[It's definitely Sirius though. He doesn't even really need to ask. James is already overjoyed that he's here, ad he's only been here like a second.]

[Whoa. What.

Sirius totally does a double-take. Did he just make James appear by talking about him? If he did, that's probably the most awesome thing he's ever managed to pull off.]

Of course it's me. Who else do you know who would show up going on about gnomes or Hogwarts?

[He looks perturbed, but he's really, really happy to see you, James.]

Oh, I dunno. I could say any one of our classmates, but none of them have that....Sirius-ness about them.

[HA HA HA JAMES IS PUNTASTIC.]

It's good you're finally here though! I was starting to get worried when you didn't show up right after I did.

[He tilts his head a little bit, as he tries to make sure that Sirius is, in fact, on the mansion grounds somewhere.]

...Are you out in the maze?

Yes, you could say that, but really. After all the time we've spent together, you still can't recognize me?

[He fake-pouts, but he follows it up with a laugh at James's pun.]

Wait, what? There is no way you've been here and I haven't. Really, James, the last time I saw you, we were planning the grandest prank in the history of pranks.

...All right, it was only the bucket over the door trick, but we spiced it up with pumpkin juice instead of water.

[He takes another look around.]

Yep. Definitely a maze.

Hogwarts?

[A very bemused young woman who has become quite adept at handling to video thingamajig answers the distress call.]

I'm afraid you're nowhere near such a place. This is Wonderland.

Yes, Hogwarts.

[There might be a touch of scorn hidden somewhere in there. Who doesn't know about Hogwarts?

But then the cockiness kind of falls off his face a little.]

This isn't Hogwarts?

No, it isn't.

[She understands the confusion - she was pretty confused herself when she first showed up in the foyer.]

People have described it to me as...a place between places? Another...another dimension, but where I'm from these things haven't exactly been studied in-depth.

[asdfghsdf introductions right]

My name is Evelyn Carnahan. What might I call you?

[He cocks his head as he takes in everything she's saying.]

How can somewhere be a place between places?

[Yeah, he's just not getting it.]

Oh, right. The name's Sirius. Sirius Black.

[He gives her his best, most charming smile.]

I haven't seen any gnomes, I'm afraid, but I'll tell you if I do.

[Helpful smile!]

No gnomes? How utterly tragic.

[Sirius pastes on the most dramatically sad face that he can manage.]

Yes, it is quite disappointing. We're just seriously lacking in the magical creatures area. Although we do have quite the infestation of trolls, actually.

[Technically Miguel generally thinks of them as Los Niños Grises or "The Grey Children".]

Trolls? Great big things with stupid expressions and pea-sized brains?

[Because that's what he thinks of when he hears the word troll.]

Sirius?

You don't remember Wonderland, do you?

[OOC: She knew the first Sirius in Eway, if it's okay to tag with that?]

Reply

sniffsbutt August 11 2011, 16:15:48 UTC
That's silly. Why would I remember a place that I've never seen before in my life?

There has to be a way to get out of here.

[That last bit is said mostly to himself.]

[ooc: Yeah, that's totally fine. :D ]

You forget if you leave Wonderland.

[He tilts his head, a curious expression on his face.]

So you're saying I've been here before and I just forgot about it?

You're in Wonderland, not Hogwarts.

...

Who are you, anyway?

sniffsbutt August 12 2011, 22:55:50 UTC
Wonderland? I haven't the foggiest idea what that is.

[Let's just say that someone's not very well versed in Muggle fairytales.]

I'm Sirius. Sirius Black.

[He peers inquisitively at her, as he casually flips his hair out of his eyes, only for it to fall back into place seconds later.]

[She rolls her eyes. Obviously someone has never watched a Disney movie.]

Sirius Black? Is that your stage name? Because it's an excellent one.

Reply

sniffsbutt August 13 2011, 20:30:50 UTC
Stage name?

[Interesting question.]

No, just my real name.

[He thinks briefly about letting her in on the secret about his other name, but since he barely knows her, he decides against it.]
