accidental audio || 1st Miracle

[At first, there's nothing but static, but it doesn't take long before a distinctly accented voice breaks through.]

Wha-what the hell? Where am I? This isn't where I'm supposed to be!

... Anwen. Where is she?

S'all right. Take a breath. You're in the City. S'not where any of us are meant to be but it's where we ended up.

Which City? Tell me exactly where I'm at.

Re: Audio

[iam-thebadwolf.livejournal.com]

Jus' the City. Sorry. Don't have anything more specific than that. Best I've heard is a pocket dimension but we don't know what Universe or planet.

... how do I get back? I can't be here. I have to go back.

Re: Audio

[There's an audible wince.] Sorry 'bout that you can't get back home but time doesn't pass back home while you're here so you're not missin' anything.

[Angry person, Welsh accent; the Doctor is interested.]

I think very few people here consider this to be where they ought to be. What's an Anwen?

[miraclenomore.livejournal.com]

She's not a what. She's my daughter!

[am-i-being-rude.livejournal.com]

[...Oops. There's an intake of breath and he clearly starts saying something and then reconsiders.]

Sorry. Lovely name. I assume you picked it? Mine sort of named herself. I'm not sure how to get you back though; basically everyone is stuck here regardless of personal wishes or will.

[miraclenomore.livejournal.com]

With Rhys' help, yes, and I've heard the same thing from several people. It can't be true.

[am-i-being-rude.livejournal.com]

Well, y'see, there's where ordinarily I would agree with you, but this place has been a bit trickier than you might expect.

[onlyholey]

It's alright, love. You're safe and sound. Welcome to the City.

[miraclenomore.livejournal.com]

Hell of a welcome and safe and sound is not something I'm used to.

I can't be here.

[onlyholey]

None of us should be here, but we are anyway, so there we are.

You left someone at home?

[miraclenomore.livejournal.com]

Mind telling me why?

... my daughter, Anwen.

[onlyholey]

Sorry about that. Apparently when we're sent back to the moment we left, so she's not in danger.

Wish I could help with the other question, love.

[coyote-walking.livejournal.com]

Gwen?

You're back in the City.

[miraclenomore.livejournal.com]

Excuse me, but who the hell are you?

[coyote-walking.livejournal.com]

Woah, hey! I'm Mercedes Thompson.

I live at the beach house with Jack Harkness.

I knew you when you were here before, but you might not remember me.

[miraclenomore.livejournal.com]

What? I've never been here before!

Jack's here.... alright. Where is he?

[coyote-walking.livejournal.com]

You probably don't remember. Jack didn't either when he returned.

We live at a big house on the beach. You lived there with the rest of the team when you were all in the City.

You're welcome to stay here again. I know Jack would want you to.

Voice

Gwen Cooper! I'd recognize that voice anywhere. I guess this place decided to stick you here too, then.

I'm assuming people have already answered some of your questions.

Voice

[miraclenomore.livejournal.com]

Stuck is a good term for it. I need to be back home.

A good deal of them, yes. Still a bit much to take in so quickly, though.

Voice

[forever-captain.livejournal.com]

I can understand that. If it's any consolation, I don't think any time is lost while we're here. The two times I went back it was like I had never been here.

Voice

[miraclenomore.livejournal.com]

That's what I've been told. Hard to believe, but it seems to be the popular opinion.

Voice

[forever-captain.livejournal.com]

Time doesn't always work the way we expect it, you know that. If you need a place to stay, you can come live with Mercy and I, it's a large place on the beach; apparently I built it the last time I was here, which I don't remember.
