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.]

Murders.

[Wow. That's...oh, goodness.]

...are there very many murders in the District of Columbia?

Last year in Washington D.C. there were 186 murders, with another 234 in Baltimore. But because I work with the Federal Bureau of Investigation, I've worked on murder cases all over the United States. In the entire United States, 14,180 murders were documented. Of course, the majority of the murders I work on aren't documented until much later.

[All the while, he face is like she's talking about what she had for breakfast.]

Oh my word, you can't be serious. That's ridiculous! What...

[Oh, right.]

What year are you from?

[Evelyn's reaction is quite confusing. Is she really so naive?

Oh, the year they each come from is a rather significant variable...]

I come from 2009. What about you?

[Another one from the two-thousands?]

...Nineteen twenty-six.

[AND A DAMN GOOD YEAR IT IS, TOO.]

Wow! I would love to have been alive in 1926! It was such a great time for science and exploration!

It...it is, I suppose, quite a bit of exploring is being done in the Middle East. It's a bit difficult to get one's footing in society, but pleasant, regardless.
