[VIDEO:] [A face comes across the screen that is startlingly white, with large blue eyes that lack pupils. He looks over the device, scowling slightly, before looking into the camera and speaking.]

So, what am I supposed to say here? This whole damn situation is unreal. I can barely fuckin' believe it. "Transport"? More like "canon fodder" I'm sure. This is like some bad dream. Like I fell asleep while watching a bad action movie or somethin'.

I don't got time for this shit. I bet most of you don't, either. I got somewhere to be and someone to find.

...

Is there a red-headed guy with horns here? Big scar on his mouth? Tell him Johnny's lookin' for him.

[ACTION for roomies:] [A tall young man enters the apartment, looking angry and a little overwhelmed. He's wearing an old hoodie and jeans that have seen better days, and there's a guitar case strapped around his back. After a few awkward moments of silence, he'll speak up.]

I'm the new guy. Which room's mine?

They'll figure out some other reason to soon enough, I'm sure.

Outside of "wait you guys aren't from here we don't like you let's riot or try to control you?" They've got that one down to pat.

[ She shrugs, looking off to the side -- but unapologetic. ]

But the natives aren't all bad, and you can almost feel bad for them after a while. The longer the Initiative is around, the more of them might never be, or might never have been. Changing the world is mostly supposed to happen going into the future, not the past.

So does this "changing the past" crap actually work?

[whatsupcroc]

Yep! It does. For everyone on this world, though they can't do it, we're the lucky ones who get to mess up history.

[He still looks a tad skeptical, but he shrugs.] And here I thought it'd be a big pile of bullshit.

Who knew, time travel is possible in a whole different weird future?
