001 ⚔ Video

[The device is unfamiliar to Van, but he has always been a quick study. After a brief fumble with the initial direction of the camera, he appears upright on screen, a young man with earthy red eyes, wild black hair, and a stern expression that suggests he is attempting to, and only halfway succeeding at, controlling a barrage of intense emotions.

Probably confusion and disorientation, the same sort almost all imPorts feel upon their arrival, though some more so than others, particularly those who hail from worlds much less advanced than this one...]


I'm looking for two friends of mine.

[He's abrupt and to the point, seemingly unhappy with having to ask for help, but obviously knowing that he's without any alternative options at the moment.]

We were traveling together before I found myself here. Merle, Hitomi...I've been told that this is the quickest way to reach you if you've also been brought here by that Porter.

[If...

Van's expression darkens, and a gloved hand rises to cover the lens of the camera.]


...I would be grateful to anyone who has perhaps heard of them, or who recognizes the names Gaea or Zaibach.

[The latter said with such potent disdain it's a wonder the young man's voice didn't crack before he simply...disconnects.]

[enjoy the face of this calm British bodybuilder, Van, because I'm totally tagging you with Hazel later.]

I'm afraid that only Gaea is familiar to me, and likely no in the way you're hoping for.

[unless he was strangely fixated on Greek mythology, but somehow Jonathan doubts that.]

But there's never any telling when the Porter may pull more people in, so it's hardly a permanent situation. Would you mind telling us what they look like, so we can keep an eye out?

I did a search of the names registered to the network, and none of those terms came up. That might not mean anything if you think they're using an alias.

[ Cadel does this the efficient way, okay. ]

[ Here is a boy a little older than Van, with brown tousled hair and hazel eyes. His smile seems effortless, but if you look very closely, there's sympathy in his eyes.

It's always difficult to come here alone. Gansey had found his friends quickly, but since then he's lost some of them. He knows every emotion running through this boy's eyes, even if his own stay under closer control.
]

I'm sorry, I don't know those names. If you can find it, there's a list of everyone who's here on your device.

Sometimes the Porter does lift people alone, though. I do know of Gaia, as in, Mother Earth? I don't know if that's what you mean. I've never heard of Zaibach before.

Gaea? I am sorry... I have never heard of that name before, but the name Pangaea is familiar.

If you can describe them to me, I have a network who can search for them. But as for the names, no. Unfortunately none of them are familiar to me.

[ Of course, Petyr does recognize that look. And that means this Van fellow must be from a world not quite as advanced as this one. ]

It can be difficult, arriving and adjusting to this world. In time, you will grow used to these technological advances.

Everybody else's answered the Gaea question, though admittedly none of them have mentioned the children bit, bad form everyone. But Zaibach...well, I'm assuming that's some form of German.

[ who's ready for the Doctor to be completely unhelpful ]

Both are Earth terms, right?
