[ The feed pops on to show a redhead with a smile on her face as if she's not really sure why she's playing along with people on drugs or something, but is doing it anyway. Sort of amused and wtf at the same time. ]

This is really cute. Sort of like giant Disney World. [ Her smile widens a bit like she's enjoying her own joke. ]

So. The "in between of life, dreaming, and death," is it? Really hope I'm in the life part, death isn't really my thing and I was in the middle of doing something so I hope I'm not dreaming. Do we get a ticket or something here? "Welcome to the In Between, guest number seventy-five! You're part of the Alive Group, have a great stay." [ Clearly joking; funny voice, air quotes, and all. And a tiny bit of an eye roll. She obviously thinks this is ridiculous. ]

I'm Fringe Agent Olivia Dunham so I'm not completely... unfamiliar with this sort of thing. If you don't have Fringe Division here, or don't know you do, we deal with events which are out of the ordinary. I'd say this counts. Of course I don't have a solution for this particular problem, but at least I'm not going to fly into hysterics. [ Actually, the thought of her in hysterics is funny. Olivia gives a small snort of laughter and seems to be about to end her feed when a thought comes up and she visibly straightens and lights up with the question. ]

If this is an alternate universe, do you have coffee? I'll drink almost anything, but I have a Starbucks rewards card.

[ He has a whole sticker album full of those. ]

Well- I'm here with a few of my friends from back home, so not everyone's from a different universe.

...

Unless some of them are really, really similar.

[ It's probably pretty magnificent already. ]

Well, that's pretty lucky that you got stuck here with friends. The only company I have from back home is a dork. [ Shrug. ] Guess it could be worse.

[ Yeeaaah she's talking about Lincoln. ]

[ The most magnificent. When he gets back home, he's gonna send it to Guinness. ]

Hey, dorks aren't so bad. I'm friends with at least two, one of which is here on the turtle.

[ No one will ever beat that record. ]

Nah, it's not so bad. He's my best friend.

Hah, make sure you hold on tight to him. Sometimes I think life here's got a thing against best friends.

[ Not that he's exactly speaking from experience or anything, noooo.... ]

Thanks for the advice, but I already wouldn't let him go if my life depended on it.

[ SOB LIKE 5 MINUTES AFTER THE POINT SHE'S PULLED FROM... ]

Glad someone's doing that, then. [ That's more muttered than anything, and MOVING ON. ]

So how often do you actually deal with parallel universes where you're from if you have a whole "division" for it?

[ Gives him a sort of blank look and then makes an "oh" face like she just got what he was talking about, and shakes her head. ]

No, we don't deal with parallel universes. We deal with the weird and mysterious things that happen and can't be explained with a conventional way of thinking. And things like vortexes, which are essentially small wormholes that open up in our world. We're in charge of shutting them down.

[ SHE'S REALLY GOOD AT PLAYING INNOCENT AND LYING ABOUT THERE BEING PARALLEL UNIVERSES WHERE SHE'S FROM. She's sort of been doing it for a year or two now. ]

[ ...Oh, okay then. ]

Sounds like a fun job. There're rumors of groups like that back where I'm from, but the only people who'd probably know for sure are the Justice League.

Maybe it's something I should get into with all the sci-fi I read.

[ League of what? Who has that sort of name? ]

Oh, totally straight out of science fiction. Crazy science experiments and all. And "League of Justice"? What are they, a coalition of judges and lawyers or something?
