[ The video feed flickers on and Tom is staring into the camera, then glancing off to the side -- then smiling. He looks tired, but relieved. ]

Well, that was simple enough.

Hello, there. My name is Dr. Thomas Light. I arrived some time ago, during a festival, and... I seem to have lost some time? I'm not sure what day it is, but I have one of these now --

[ He holds up his arm, motioning toward the simple metal bracelet on his wrist, with a dark stone set neatly inside it where a watch face would normally be. ]

If anyone could be so kind as to tell me how long I was out? And why I woke up... somewhere completely different?

[ A quick glance at the world behind him reveals he's in the... water sector. ]

[ Tom laughs at that, remembering the last time he was here, and really did meet Santa. ]

No, I'm afraid not. Santa's much taller than I am!

Though I suppose its an easy enough mistake to make.

There was an actual Santa here? [ you're lucky he even noticed you - he was so wrapped up with his 'twin' he barely paid attention to anyone else. ]

[makesright]

There was! Quite a spry fellow. Lots of fun, and fascinating to talk to.

Good to know you still believe in him. He'd be happy to hear that. What's your name?

[akito]

I never believed in Santa growing up, but coming here it's easy to believe his existence is a possibility in other worlds, ne?
