So now that I've read the handy little welcome manual and have established that this place is entirely too creepy--

[ She looks at the screen and sighs. Traces of concern and what might be fear accompany her mostly unamused look. It's probably pretty obvious that she took the time to make herself look at least semi-presentable before contacting the network. Her hair looks generally tucked into place and her usual daily makeup has been applied. ]

Is there anybody here who knows me? [ She expects at least a few yeses. She's practically New York royalty in her world. ] My name is Charlotte Clarke. I want to know if my family's here. The Graysons. Or anybody else from my world, I guess.

[ She basically just doesn't want to be here alone. ]

Also, I need to speak to a doctor. Preferably one who knows what they're doing.

I hope it isn't a pressing medical emergency then.

[resourcefulgirl]

Doesn't matter if it is, does it? Sort of a moot point, in this case.

[jilt]

Unless the problem resolved itself I don't see how it would be.

[resourcefulgirl]

If the medical attention I receive is not up to par, then state of emergency hardly matters, I think.

Besides, it's being taken care of. Hopefully by semi-competent doctors.

[jilt]

I would think the state of emergency would hopefully serve as a motivator for our good doctors, but one shouldn't assume.

[ where's watson when you need him man ]

But I hope once you've been tended to that you settle in well, Miss Clarke.

[resourcefulgirl]

I guess we'll see.

[ She gives a small smile. ]

Thank you, Miss...?

[jilt]

Adler. Irene Adler, if you please.

[resourcefulgirl]

Thank you, Miss Adler. I appreciate your concern.

[ Trying for polite instead of bratty! ]

[jilt]

You're quite welcome. Do feel free to seek me out, if ever you wish for company.

[resourcefulgirl]

I'll keep that in mind.

[ She means it, too. Girl time is a thing she's fond of. ]
