[CALL network]
[In Alfie's line of work, waking up to find a mysterious envelope on your bedside table is cause for deep suspicion. He'd scoured the room for anything out of place before he'd even considered opening it - and once he did discover the strange little electronic device, he'd spent a good hour learning how it works before he broadcasted anything. When he's finally ready to make his virtual presence known, he first chooses the open network.]
Right - I've got the worlds idea, yeah? And the aliens, City of Tomorrow - all that. I can read what you're all saying.
[That doesn't mean he necessarily believes it, but he at least doesn't need introductory explanations.]
There's just one thing I can't figure out. If I were to push this button here, 'transport' - what would happen? What are we meant to be transporting?
[Themselves, it sounds like. He'll go somewhere - he's gotten that much, from reading the comments - and it sounds like it'd be easy to return. But this is all completely unfamiliar territory to him, and he is going to be cautious.]
[CAD network]
[But he can't help but be curious about this second broadcasting channel - one that people don't seem to be chattering away on. A backup, maybe, in case the first goes down?]
Hello. Quiet, eh?

no subject
So I finally hit the TRANSPORT button the other day and you kinda disappear and reappear in this really super fancy futuristic city in front of a REALLY tall tower. That belongs to some company named McAran Industries. I'm pretty sure they made the things we found, the CALL device things.
Anyway, the lady there said that that brings you to the City of Tomorrow in what's called the Seven-Fold City. It's supposed to be some weird midway ground between stories and the real world and the different parts of the city are different kinds of stories. From what I can guess, Tomorrow = science fiction.
There's six other sections. I think there's an app that gives you some information on the CALL phone thing.
Did that make more sense?
