One moment Jane is sitting at the kitchen table sipping her coffee and leafing through her notebook, and the next she's standing in the middle of a forest clearing. Instead of her flannel pajamas she is clad in a simple white dress and her feet are bare. Her notebook, the summary of her life's work, is nowhere to be seen. At her feet, though, is a notebook-looking thing with her name on the front. She picks it up and opens it, then sits down where she is to read.
Later, still in the woods but feeling more acclimated to where she is and the new wings on her back, she decides to give the communications function a try. She writes a short message that reads
"Hello, my name is Jane Foster, and I've just arrived. I am in the forest and I can't tell which direction to go to get out. Could someone help me out? Thanks!"

So what is the deal with these wings. Do they really not do anything?

Well, I'm sure you have a lot of questions. Why don't start heading for the village while I try to answer them?

The journal thing explained a lot, actually. For it being possibly the strangest situation I'll ever find myself in, it seems pretty organized. I can really do whatever I want here? So if I wanted to set up a lab and do the same work I was doing at home, I can do that?

Date: 2014-05-05 07:02 pm (UTC)I guess I can stick with just making observations and trying to learn about this place. Do you know if there's somewhere in the village I could get a telescope?

So how many people are here?

And everyone has one of these journals, so we can all talk to one another, right?
