So, um....

[There's a man on the feed. He's looking a bit beaten up, a nice gash on his forehead that's been covered up, but... Yeah. He's smiling. From what you can see of him, he's wearing dark-blue hospital scrubs.

When he speaks, his voice has an English accent. London, if anyone knows enough about it.]

I'm still tryin' to sort this whole "city-on-a-turtle" thing out in my head. It's kinda... a lot to take in. [He laughs.] Must've been a magic grenade. Anyway... Guess I'd better introduce myself. Adrian Fletcher, call me Fletch. I'm a nurse, so... if you need help in a medical capacity, I'm your bloke.

And, well, I can sideline as a mechanic, but you lot don't seem to have many cars around here... and it's kinda been three years since I last 'ad me 'ands on a motor proper.

[He then claps his hands.]

Right. First order of business... I'm gonna need a place to stay. Then... [He looks down.] I'm gonna need to change outta these scrubs. Ain't exactly purpose-built for bein' transported to another world.

And, uh... I know this was probably all covered by the lovely young lady at the visitor's centre, but... I kinda spaced out and just nodded... Sorry, love.

If you can't, you'd better learn fast. [She's mostly teasing.] You're welcome. You should also definitely stop by the Healer's Guild and get your head fixed. I'm sure Raine wants you on board to help out but she's going to scold you if you don't get that looked at. She's very good at scolding.

[Pepper says this like a compliment.]

Well, I can deal with the complicated of a busy day on a ward. And Holby does tend to attract the more interesting cases.

[Careful, Fletch. Knocking on that fourth wall, there.]

And my head's fine. Just needs time to heal.

[lasergrenades]

Holby? Is that the hospital you work at?

[She raises an amused eyebrow at Fletch's last.]

Dude, seriously, we've got magic here. No need to wait. Oh, I'm Pepper, by the way; Pepper Potts.

[holbydelboy]

Yeah... magic that near to my brain. Thanks, but no thanks. Besides, that probably means someone has to use energy. It's not worth it.

And, yeah. Holby City Hospital. It's pretty unique.
