It Had to Be You, Log 1/??? [Audio]

Hello?

[The audio crackles, buzzes into the correct tuning, and there's the click of a dial. A distinctive, very proper, English voice speaks over the comm unit. At least she's familiar with radio enough to manage this much.]

Is anyone there? This is...my name is Evelyn Carnahan, and this is not Cairo or Hamunaptra.

[A pause.]

I don't know where I am, and I was right in the middle of something very important, and this is exceedingly inconvenient. If someone could-

[Rustling noises.]

-if someone could please tell me what's going on, I need to find my brother, Jonathan, and our guide, Rick, as I was in the midst of an expedition, thank you, I'm in...I think it's a foyer.



...anyone?

[For those interested in seeing Evelyn in person, seeing as the last thing she can remember was falling into a river off of a boat, she's wearing a soaking wet nightgown. This. This will not stand. This is scandalous.]

["Disturbing" is a bit of an understatement. Wide-eyed and confused, she holds the radio closer to her ear, as if that will make things any better.]

...may I ask who is speaking?

[Or what.]

...Owl. Of course.

[She's going mad. She's passed out, this is all a dream, any minute now O'Connell is going to shake her awake and tell her that they've already reached the City of the Dead.]

I...m-my name is Evelyn- Oh, I said that already, didn't I?

[She sighs.]

This isn't all some sort of hallucination, is it? Brought upon by fatigue or hunger?

[He laughs a little, which is just a WEIRD sound.]

[The weirdest sound she has ever heard. Really. She's making a face now.]

What is this place, then? Just moments ago I was on a boat in Egypt, and-

[Evelyn is doing a poor job of disguising the distress in her voice.]

-and now I'm here, and everyone I know isn't.

Mr. Owl-

[How many licks does it take to get to the center of a Tootsie Pop?]

-That's all well and good, but they need me right now, because they can't continue without me - I'm missing incredibly important goings-on!

Where is here, again? Did you...did you really say Wonderland?

It's a children's story where I'm from. I grew up with it.

For one thing, this isn't quite how the book describes it. How is any of this even possible?

[She sighs wearily.]

I-I think I just...I just need to sit down.

I'm sorry, this isn't...this isn't what I'd bargained for. When I asked for adventure.

...is there anything I-

[Pull yourself together, girl. Not all hope is lost.]

-anything I can do while I'm here? Anything I should know?

It's dangerous?

[Not that she isn't used to that now, after being around O'Connell, but it's still unsettling to think about.]

Events. A-All right, thank you, Mr. Owl.

[Oh good Lord, there's too much to take in at once. She needs to sleep.]

A wise idea.

[No, really. She's feels so tired.]

There's a little note on my radio that has two numbers...would they correspond to a room, do you think?
