Terre Haute

[paradisamods]

[Today, our intrepid explorers have finally made it to Terre Haute. It’s mostly grassland, and on the outskirts small spotted lions, about the size of leopards prowl around. They seem to be more interested in the strange antelope running around than in any people, however. Towards the edge, lies a cliff face, looking out to sea, on occasion giant whales can be seen breaching the water.

Of the weird thing they came to look for, in the distance is a cylindrical shape, lying on its side. But between them and it is a strange village. One made up of excessively tall wooden huts, all of which have electric lights, turned on, though how they’re creating such power is a mystery, they are still very much inside the dead zone.

The residents of this off little village are wandering around, going about their buisess. The residents being a group of bemused looking giraffes. Perhaps you will even see some familiar non-giraffe faces milling about.

Welcome to Terre Haute]

[The Doctor might be a little star struck and it's a hearty hand shake with a friendly smile.] Oh, I can imagine the stories he might have to tell.

[Making a quick nod in acknowledgement, he has no recollection of his previous stay at all. Between time streams and Paradisa, it strikes again.] James. James it is, thank you. Unfortunately I'm very much starting from scratch.. As you've no doubt gathered.

Hold on, you know Nikola Tesla? But he's not joined the expedition? This little conundrum would be exactly his cup of tea I should have thought.

[unnaturalpause]

[It's okay he's rather used to it, which is why he's grinning the entire time, nodding.] Indeed and that means, if you need something ask. I'm more than willing to help, especially for someone starting from the beginning.

[And that's a laugh from him at that and he shrugs as he rubs at his chin slightly.] I've known Nikola since our days at Oxford, quite a long time. And while normally you're right, Nikola dislikes anything that takes away his abilities, he's the last descendant of ancient vampires back home and coming here takes those away.

[It's a perfectly normal thing for him to say really, the grass is green, the sky is blue, Nikola's a vampire. But he does know how it tends to make people react so he's just going to wait now.]

[He nods enthusiastically, a friendly smile in response to James' laugh. Then his smile falters and slips. First, vampire. Second, other universes.]

I can see how that would put a crimp in his day. I'm familiar with vampires from my world, also. Gravely so.
