Um...hi? Anyone? So...this is really strange. Like...really strange. I tried going to work this morning, but it's not there. Like, the building is there? But it's completely different when you walk inside. So I tried going home, and my apartment isn't there. Then I get this message...

Okay, look, am I having a psychotic break or something? I mean, it's not entirely unheard of for a severe psychological condition like schizophrenia to manifest suddenly. Or maybe my coffee was laced with something this morning? Or this is a really, really vivid dream?

	It's like Manhattan but not Manhattan. Pocket dimension that pulls in people from different universes. Yes, it sounds insane. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	ifyourelucky 2020-07-19 01:47 am UTC (link)
	It really does. But since all of this seems pretty insane... (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	That's not really going to go away any time soon, sorry to say. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	...is there no way to get home? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	machinesrus 2020-07-19 02:02 am UTC (link)
	Not deliberately, no. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	ifyourelucky 2020-07-20 02:00 am UTC (link)
	Of course people would have tried...hmm...I'd ask what they've tried, but I can't even think of where I would start, especially if the way I got here was just...poof! Is it possible to leave the city? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	machinesrus 2020-07-20 03:10 am UTC (link)
	Science, cosmic powers and magic, basically. Technically we aren't even in the city. It's just a copy of Manhattan. Can't get off the island. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	ifyourelucky 2020-07-21 03:28 am UTC (link)
	How? Are the bridges missing? Are the tunnels blocked? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	machinesrus 2020-07-21 04:28 am UTC (link)
	No bridges, no tunnels. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	ifyourelucky 2020-07-21 04:40 am UTC (link)
	Huh. What happens if you try to leave by boat? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	machinesrus 2020-07-21 09:00 am UTC (link)
	Well I'm not much of a boater. But when I fly away, I feel like I'm making progress but when I look back the island's still right there. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	I've been told it is not a mental break. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	ifyourelucky 2020-07-19 01:48 am UTC (link)
	So it's happened to you, too? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	madmalfoy 2020-07-19 01:50 am UTC (link)
	Hmm. Found myself here a few days ago. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	ifyourelucky 2020-07-19 01:58 am UTC (link)
	Here? So...New York? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	madmalfoy 2020-07-19 01:59 am UTC (link)
	I've been told it is a replica, but I've never visited proper New York so I cannot swear to that. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	ifyourelucky 2020-07-19 02:01 am UTC (link)
	Where did you come from? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	madmalfoy 2020-07-19 09:10 pm UTC (link)
	England. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	ifyourelucky 2020-07-20 02:01 am UTC (link)
	Huh. And you just found yourself here? One moment there, next moment...fake New York City? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	madmalfoy 2020-07-20 06:16 pm UTC (link)
	Pretty much. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	ifyourelucky 2020-07-21 03:27 am UTC (link)
	That must have been wild. Although at least you probably knew right away you were somewhere else! (Reply to this) (Parent)

	freemanspeaks 2020-07-19 01:39 am UTC (link)
	You must be new. Hi! I'm Freddy. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	ifyourelucky 2020-07-19 01:49 am UTC (link)
	Hi Freddy, I'm Edrisa. New to what? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	freemanspeaks 2020-07-19 01:50 am UTC (link)
	New to Goodland! I've been here for a year. It is weird at first, but there are some great people here. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	ifyourelucky 2020-07-19 01:58 am UTC (link)
	Goodland? So...it just looks like New York? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	freemanspeaks 2020-07-19 01:59 am UTC (link)
	Yeah! It exists in like its own bubble. Smarter people can explain it better. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	ifyourelucky 2020-07-19 02:04 am UTC (link)
	How did we get here? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	freemanspeaks 2020-07-19 09:14 pm UTC (link)
	Just sort of showed up. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	ifyourelucky 2020-07-20 02:04 am UTC (link)
	Did someone bring us here? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	freemanspeaks 2020-07-20 06:16 pm UTC (link)
	A Jubilant Entity, but I've never met him/her/it! (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	ifyourelucky 2020-07-21 03:24 am UTC (link)
	Right, the letter. Who calls themselves "Jubilant Entity," anyway? (Reply to this) (Parent)

	endswithher 2020-07-19 02:04 am UTC (link)
	Trust me, I know how you feel. That's what I thought was happening when I first got here, too. I promise that it's not, though. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	ifyourelucky 2020-07-19 04:41 am UTC (link)
	So I'm not crazy or on drugs, I'm just stuck in an alternate dimension. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	endswithher 2020-07-19 04:43 am UTC (link)
	As completely crazy as that sounds to any rational person? Yes. I'm Emma Duval. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	ifyourelucky 2020-07-20 02:06 am UTC (link)
	I'm Edrisa. Edrisa Tanaka. Dr. Edrisa Tanaka, technically. You can call me Edrisa, though. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	endswithher 2020-07-20 02:13 am UTC (link)
	It's nice to meet you Edrisa. What kind of doctor are you? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	ifyourelucky 2020-07-20 02:14 am UTC (link)
	I'm a medical examiner with the NYPD. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	endswithher 2020-07-20 02:15 am UTC (link)
	Oh yeah? My mom is the county medical examiner back in Lakewood, where I'm from. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	ifyourelucky 2020-07-20 02:25 am UTC (link)
	Oh hey! What was that like? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	endswithher 2020-07-20 02:27 am UTC (link)
	Pretty standard until we got serial killers. I've always passed my health and biology classes with flying colors, but I think I'm probably breaking my mom's heart by not studying pre-med right now. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	ifyourelucky 2020-07-21 03:25 am UTC (link)
	Believe me, I know very well that med school is not for everybody. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	endswithher 2020-07-21 11:52 am UTC (link)
	It was "the plan" for a really long time and I'll still take a few classes, but that's not what I really want to do anymore. (Reply to this) (Parent)
