[ video ] - Day 181

[ Sam wakes up in his room feeling groggy and disorientated. It doesn't take him long to notice that this is not his room back at the Bunker and that, alone, is enough to put him on edge.

The dizziness only adds to it. He tries to clear his mind enough to poke at the smartphone which triggers the message. Cape Kore? Science Center? What the hell? What kind of kidnappers kidnap someone and leave them with a freakin' phone?

He pushes himself to his feet - bad mistake - a wave of nausea passes over him and standing up is incredibly challenging. Walking? Forget it. He flops back on the bed and toys with the phone some more, until he finds the video setting. ]

Uh... [ Way to show intellect there, Sam. ] The hell just happened? Was I roofied?

... Dean? ... Cas?

[ Lost moose is lost. ]

[ Isn't it so much more fun when the new arrival is flaily like a fawn or a baby giraffe? So many limbs. So little balance. ]

Is it common for people to just turn up like this? Is there any pattern to it?

[Okay, actually, that's just kind of funny. She's going to have to try not to giggle a little. Hope Sam's not too easily insulted.]

Kinda, yeah. There isn't a schedule to it or anything, there might be a pattern for what kind of people wind up here, but I can't say for sure.

[ He's got pretty thick skin. ]

What kind of people usually wind up here? [ Despite the dizziness and the nausea, he's definitely slipping into research mode. ]

When I first got here, I thought it was because of the whole 'psychokinetic' thing. Tends to catch people's attention. As far as I know, nobody else matches that description, though, so that's probably not it.

There seem to be a couple other people who are familiar with magic, so I was thinking maybe it's that? [That seems to remind her of something, and she spends a few seconds frowning offscreen.] ...But there is no way this place doesn't have a couple Magi on the payroll, or at least an absolute buttload of spellwork laid down somewhere.

Okay, so really, your guess is as good as mine.

Spellwork? [ That definitely gets Sam's attention. ]

So this place isn't boring then. Do most people arrive feeling like they've been roofied, or is that just me?

Yeah. I mean, it's either magic or technology crazy enough that it might as well be. Things don't stay where you leave them, and I mean rooms and hallways and stuff.

So, yeah, not boring is a pretty good way to put it. Personally, I don't remember feeling anything other than confused, so you probably just had some bad luck. Or showed up at a really bad time.

The rooms move? Huh. That's something new. [ Poor Moose. What has he gotten himself into this time? Sam is just a giant magnet for bad luck. No wonder Cape Kore dragged him along for fun. ]

Oh. I'm Sam, by the way.

It's some real Hogwarts stuff. Uh, if they have those books where you're from.

I'm Carter. It's nice to meet you? [She's still not sure if that's really an appropriate thing to say, given everything.]

Yeah. We have them. The movies too.

Have you been here long?
