First case.

[dorkwonder]

[As soon as Tim found himself suddenly transported to a strange new place, he scurried over to a shadow and began to gather intel. Wherever he went, a journal appeared at the area he was inspecting. After awhile he realized it was the same journal appearing over and over. So, he finally picked it up and began to read through it. The entries gave him a decent idea of what was going on. Combing the entries with the view of the sky made it obvious he was no longer on Earth. Tim was no stranger to the multiverse. He knew that the name “Wayne” was recognized in some of the alternative Earths.

When Tim finally dictates an entry of his own, his voice comes out sounding nervous and awkward. Instead of introducing himself as Tim Drake, the ward of multi-billionaire Bruce Wayne, he's Alvin Draper; confused high-school student.]

Okay, so I know there's the whole “be careful what you wish for”, but this is kind of overkill. And by “kind of”, I mean completely. I just wanted to get out of my Calculus test! A fire alarm or sneeze attack would have worked.

[His voice sounds increasingly nervous as he speaks.]

So, uh, my name is Alvin Draper and I'm not from around here. I don't even know if I'm from the same world as this place. This is what I get for wishing I was in all of those sci-fi novels I've read, huh? Ahaha. Seriously, I never going to wish for anything again. Anyway, um, if anyone could let me know what's going on here and how I get back home, that would be great. Thanks.

[ooc: Just as a side note, since Tim's father is in a coma and not dead in his memories, he currently thinks he's the ward of Bruce Wayne and not his adopted son.]

It just kind of gets that way when you're the only one of your kind.

How about you, what your world like?

[dorkwonder]

I'm not sure what the Earths here are like, but mine is sort of your standard Earth; some parts of the world are wealthy, others are not. There's political conflict, groups that come together for a common cause, lots of neat technology, and recreational places to visit. I like playing video games, going to the movie theater, and checking out the occasional concert on my day off.

[whistles_the_blues]

I-

[There's a brief pause.]

I used to go to concerts but that was a long time ago. I've also recently learned to play a video game, so I can do that if you ever want to.

[He's also pretty handy when it comes to tech, but he'll leave that out for now.]

Your Earth doesn't really sound all that different from my really.

[dorkwonder]

Sure, playing a video game sometime soon would be great. I think my nerves need something familiar to latch onto so they don't go crazy.

What kind of concerts did you go to? The last one I went to was to see Depeche Mode.

[whistles_the_blues]

Well, there's a room full of them in that room I mentioned.

I was mainly taken out to see "symphonies," I'm pretty sure that's what they were called. The doctor always listened to the blues or rock and roll while he worked, I never really took the time to learn any band names though.

[dorkwonder]

Once I get settled in, I'll definitely take you up on that offer. Hey, I don't think I've caught your name yet.

[whistles_the_blues]

Sounds good. If you need any help or want to tour around, just let me know.

I think we skipped that part. I'm Break, pleasure to meet you.
