[Zack is hanging around the shop plaza, doing a little investigating to try and see if there's anything special about the place now. If the supposed portal is going to open there, he's curious to know if there's anything in the area that's changed. You might find him poking at the fountain, circling the sunken well, stopping and crouching down to check the ground beneath the snow sometimes. He's pretty focused on his work, though it probably looks strange.

Bother him?]

[Let's just say she's carrying a shoulder bag |D She shifts it on her shoulder, and a light, metallic "clang" is heard from within.]

That's why I'm going to try to figure out what that thing is and try to stop people from going in. And if I can't... I'm going to take down names and descriptions. That way, we'll know who went in.

[Zack picks up on that, makes a mental note of it, and dismisses it for the moment. None of his business.]

That's a good idea. At least then we can know who's missing and why, maybe check if their stuff is missing or if they're still around...

I'll try to keep everyone informed.

[She'll try to find a place to sit and dig through her shoulder pack, where she pulls out a canteen.] Which means I'll be up for a while.

[wingenvy]

I've got a house right over there with a healthy supply of coffee, if you're interested.

[poisonousbadge.livejournal.com]

I appreciate it. [She gestures to the bag.] I've got another one in there, but if I run out, I'll know where to go.

[wingenvy]

House 50, you're welcome at any time. [He offers out a hand.] I'm Zack, by the way.

[poisonousbadge.livejournal.com]

Thanks. [She takes that offered hand and gives it a good, firm shake.] Elisa Maza. Good to meet you.

[wingenvy]

[Oh ho, that is a good grip.] Most people aren't so determined to watch over the rest of us like this, especially when they're new. Is that just the kind of person you are, or is it your job back home?

[poisonousbadge.livejournal.com]

Both. I'm a part of the New York police department back at home. It's my job to protect and serve the people, and I enjoy doing it. [Not to mention she's the oldest sibling and frequently babysat the younger ones.]

[wingenvy]

Oh, the police, huh? Cool. I was a SOLDIER, myself.

[poisonousbadge.livejournal.com]

SOLDIER? Can't say I've heard of it.

[wingenvy]

Well, I've never heard of New York, so we're even. Probably a safe bet to say we're not from the same world.

[poisonousbadge.livejournal.com]

[She lets out an exasperated sigh at that.] I'm starting to think I'm not going to meet anyone from my world.

[wingenvy]

Maybe, maybe not. Is New York the name of your world, or something else?
