I was trying to think of some sort of cool introduction, and then I remembered that I'm really not cool. So, then I proved I was 'really not cool' by trying to come up with some sort of pun or catchphrsae introduction. But uh... embarrassing!

So let's go traditional: Hello, I'm Ciaran, it's incredibly fucking weird to be here.

	Space Neverland? That’s a new one. Thank you, Marian. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Well, it seems fitting. The place we were in before this was regarded as Neverland. It's a pleasure to always meet someone new, Ciaran. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Where were you before? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	_night_watchman 2019-05-24 05:07 am UTC (link)
	On an island that had a little bit of everything on it. It was a lot like earth, or probably one you would know anyway. But from what I understand, from what other people said, it wasn't. But originally I'm from Nottinghamshire. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	How peculiar. Was this another sort of Limbo, like the station? Or did you go there by choice? Someone else a little closer to home, then. I arrived from London, and I’m from Dublin originally. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	_night_watchman 2019-05-24 08:17 pm UTC (link)
	Well it was like this place. I don't think anyone is here by choice, not that it's a horrible place, but most of this was not even fathomable when I'm from. Even the island. Oh how wonderful. There's few of us here. Darcy and Edward from Derbyshire. (ooc: if this isn't right sorry, I looked!) (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	feelslikehope 2019-05-24 08:25 pm UTC (link)
	No, I know what you mean. I don't think there's much about this situation that is fathomable. Alright, I suppose that does make it seem less completely alien. (ooc - close! Darcy is derbyshire, Edward is yorkshire) (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	_night_watchman 2019-05-24 09:46 pm UTC (link)
	It is quite a lot to wrap your head around no matter what time you come from. Good I'm glad! Colonel Crawley is from down around London I think. (Ooc- Doh! I should have looked at my notes instead of Google.) (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	feelslikehope 2019-05-25 07:10 am UTC (link)
	And what time are you from? Think I’m the only Irish lad, though? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	1193. A long time ago. You are, we had one fellow but he's gone now. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	feelslikehope 2019-05-25 07:46 pm UTC (link)
	Christ, I didn't expect you to say that. Yeah, this really must've been one hell of an adjustment. Ah, I'm sorry about that. ~~Home, or~~ (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	It was very much, but unlike most I had the help of two beings that cemented my beliefs in God. And I'm quick to learn. I am too, he was with us from the beginning, and there aren't very many of us left anymore. But new people come in everyday, and a few return, so I have hopes to see him again someday.

	feelslikehope 2019-05-26 08:56 pm UTC (link)
	You did? What sort of beings? How long ago was the beginning of this? I'm also sorry for all the questions. I have hope that you'll see him again one day too, either in this place or in another. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	An Angel and a Demon. And no they weren't parts of my conscience. Right about seven years for some, I think. For me just over six, I was a wee bit late to the party by six months. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	feelslikehope 2019-05-26 10:00 pm UTC (link)
	And these were an Angel and a Demon from the Christian sect? Seven years? Jesus... and some people have been out of the world for that long? That's crazy. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	_night_watchman 2019-05-27 03:29 am UTC (link)
	Yes. I believe so the angel was Anna and the demon Meg. Both were surprisingly friendly and helpful. Some yes, there are a few that have somehow ventured home only to return. I did so just a few months ago. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	feelslikehope 2019-05-28 09:32 pm UTC (link)
	Oh, very normal names. I am surprised at a helpful demon. But glad that you had them around. And was it like Dan said - no time had passed at home? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	_night_watchman 2019-05-29 10:49 am UTC (link)
	Anna had a different name, but I don't remember what it was, I only heard it once. And Meg was a demon because she sold her soul to save her sister. But they helped me be a little less frightened about all the things that seemed utterly impossible. Yes, I had returned from the exact point that I had left. And this place became a whisper in my mind. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	feelslikehope 2019-06-02 08:51 pm UTC (link)
	I see. Well, then I'm glad that you had them to help you. I suppose that's for the best really. You'd never be able to fit back into your old life once you'd had all of your experiences on the island otherwise. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	_night_watchman 2019-06-03 11:16 am UTC (link)
	Well, I hope someone's there for you like they were for me. Exactly, and if I remembered I might let it slip to the wrong person and end up in an asylum. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	feelslikehope 2019-06-04 10:39 pm UTC (link)
	Oh, yeah, sure, people have been great actually. Exactly, and if I wouldn't want that in 2019, you definitely don't in 1193. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	_night_watchman 2019-06-05 04:23 am UTC (link)
	So you're coping with being in space as well as I was the island? I don't know how they are in 2019 but in 1193 if you went in you never came back out. Not alive anyway. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	feelslikehope 2019-06-06 01:31 pm UTC (link)
	Yeah... I mean, I'm alright? It's a lot to process, but I think I'm coping okay. There's not so bad as that in 2019, no. Then I am doubly glad that you didn't remember. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	_night_watchman 2019-06-07 09:37 am UTC (link)
	It's easiest done if you can compartmentalize, and handle one thing after the other. There were dreams, or what felt like dreams, but beyond that not something I could have mentioned, or would have. (Reply to this) (Parent)
