[Hey Foreigners there is a cutie brunette on your screen right now. She’s tapping her chin a little thoughtfully, eyeing the camera] Okay, so I get the whole other realm, hi-you’re-on-a-turtle-and-also-there-are-computers thing. Which, weird – seriously, who expects the afterlife to be so high tech? Also, sorry about the possession thing, that must've sucked. But I have something a little more important to ask about right now.

[She leans back and gestures at herself. She’s wearing a green dress that, while it looks good on her, isn’t exactly appropriate for every day wear] Does anyone have clothes I could borrow? Pants, especially pants. You have no idea how long it’s been since I even saw a pair of jeans.

Other than that, does anyone know if there’s a dance club around here or something? I had a look around myself, but maybe someone who’s been here longer can help. There’s gotta be some place teenagers can go to let loose, right? [She winks, and reaches forward to turn off the camera when something else appears to occur to her]

Oh yeah! I’m A – Catty, I’m Catty. [She holds her hand up in a Vulcan salute] Greetings to my fellow inter-dimensional travellers. Especially those of you with pants.

[u n s u r e] Uh, do you need time to discuss this among yourselves, or...?

What? No. There's nothing to discuss. [:I]

Right.

[BUT GRINNING ANYWAY] Well then! What's up? So this is your friend who can time-travel right?

There are totally things to discuss. But that can wait. I'm the time-travelling friend extraordinaire, yes. I also go by Catty.

Whoa that is awesome; so how does time-travelling work? Can you like, go backwards and forwards, or is it just a forwards thing, and does time really go around in a loop and is it like a fourth-dimension or something?!

[oh wait he's forgetting something here...] Oh yeah, hey Catty. Welcome to the turtle!

[Catty doesn't seem too bothered by this. No one ever wants to know about time travel!!] It's like travelling through dimensions! Time and space are basically the same thing, just in different directions. I open a portal or a tunnel, and you basically just chill out in there until it's time to get out. I can do both, but there's not really any point in going forward, you can't change anything that's meant to happen. Aaaaand time doesn't loop, because the way we experience time is totally different to how it actually exists. Basically, it all exists all at once, we just experience it in moments.

Thanks!

[OMG. MIND. BLOWN. VANESSA I THINK I'M IN LOVE WITH YOUR BEST FRIEND i mean what]

How do you open it? Do you have a device or something? Or is it just like an innate ability? Can we go time-travelling?

It's innate! I'm a lot better at it now than I used to be, you should have seen my landings. [A bright smile] And sure we can! Just so long as you're good to Vanessa.

[welp have the tiniest hint of a blush] As good as an AUDI A4 inline-four engine. [what does that even mean idefk anymore] Cross my heart and hope to die.

[Catty has no idea what that means, but the tone of his voice and that blush clue her in that this is the response she was looking for] Okay, then! Let me know when you're free, and we'll go back.
