libraritologyHello?
[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.]

Date: 2011-07-15 04:12 pm (UTC)...of course. Of course this has to happen to me, of all people, the one who doesn't...who doesn't even believe in this sort of thing.
[Mark is from 1969. He probably hasn't even been conceived yet.]

Date: 2011-07-15 04:28 pm (UTC)[And that isn't even the half of it, but hey, tea-room. That means Mark can head to the closet and grab a towel for her.]
There's more, but you don't have to have it all at once. See how you feel when you've gotten yourself some dry clothes.
[And he hands the towel over.]
I'll be in the hall. The closet should give you whatever you need.

Date: 2011-07-16 02:06 am (UTC)Um...
[Well. When in Rome.
Once Mark has left the parlour, Evelyn tries to imagine the clothes she'd be the most comfortable in as she moves to the closet door and opens it.
It's all...miraculously there. She must still be hallucinating. After drying off and changing, she cracks the door open and peers out.]
...Mr. Meltzer?

Date: 2011-07-16 01:07 pm (UTC)Ready?
[action]
Date: 2011-07-16 01:58 pm (UTC)Yes, thank you. I feel much better.
[action]
Date: 2011-07-16 02:35 pm (UTC)Where were we?
[action]
Date: 2011-07-16 03:07 pm (UTC)[Holding her arms, still feeling damp and far too vulnerable, Evelyn shifts unhappily.]
...there's no way to get back, is there?
[action]
Date: 2011-07-16 03:26 pm (UTC)[action] lalala 2 diff canon sources give 2 diff dates for Evie, so it's actually 1926 not '23 SORRY
Date: 2011-07-16 03:51 pm (UTC)It's cool. I have had that problem with Mark.

I don't know where to begin, Mr. Meltzer. I'm a librarian, for Heaven's sake, not a scientific expert on whatever all this is.

There's a library here, you know.

Date: 2011-07-17 07:07 pm (UTC)[She gestures that he lead the way, and then falls into step.]
Where are you from, Mr. Meltzer? America, I presume, but my knowledge of Americans is rather limited.

I was born in London, though we moved back and forth between England and Egypt, even when I was very young.
