[Looks like it's that time for a fresh wave of newcomers, because there is a man clad in a white suit currently squeezing sea water out of a long scarf in the plaza. On the positive side, at least water doesn't stain the fabric as easily. Once he's satisfied he hangs it over a few branches of the coral and turns to examine his surroundings a bit better. He wasn't quite expecting to show up in an underwater city after traversing the mines, and he definitely didn't expect to find a strange tattoo on the back of his hand. The device that turned up in his coat pocket was another oddity, but he could tinker around with it once he learned where he was and how he arrived.]

Now let's see what we have here...

I got it in 1911.

[Does he look like he's joking, Crimson? Though he wishes he was really..]

Unfortunately, I'm not. This place... is capable of pulling people to it from different points in time. It is 1914 for me back home, for example.

The city is called Vatheon, I don't know much beyond that, except that we're no longer on our own world now. The natives seem friendly, if unhelpful on the information front, but at least they're gracious hosts, as nearly everything here is given away free for the taking.

[He'll hold his own hand up to show the palm of it and the black mark which graces it.]

It seems everyone brought here gains that little addition.

[Possibly a few months or more ahead of him then..but the clothing definitely didn't make it look like he'd been pulled from his prison cell. Time perhaps to try his hand at fishing once again...]

You were released before you got brought here?

It is, though I suspect there's a reason behind that.

[He's still seeking information on that suspicion though. As of yet, he's gotten nothing really concrete.]

Yes, there is one place which requires payment in the form of something called Starfish Tokens, but the form of that currency is a simple card it would seem. I'm uncertain as of yet just how one gains those, but the city is gracious enough to provide some of them upon arrival fortunately.

[A fact he was grateful for since he'd needed them to get the materials needed to replace his gloves.]

I believe its called a Star Fish Communicator, or SFC for short. It's how the majority of people communicate here beyond face to face.

[It's something of a fascinating thing really, he's still not entirely certain just how it does some of the things it does, but so far he's resisted the impulse to take it apart to see just how it worked.]

Indeed. [He paused thinking, adding up the time silently.]

Going on around three weeks now.

[And might as well broach the issue of Hawkeye now, get that complication out of the way before Kimblee found out in a worse way and made a situation out of it.]

I'm not the only one from our world here, Riza Hawkeye is here too... only she's from 1908.
